Our client from Sainte-Anne De Bellevue had problems of water infiltration since the purchase of her house.
After hearing about Basement Systems Québec and its inner foundation drain system, the owner decided to call for an estimate and have this system installed in her basement.
The WaterGuard is a very efficient system and gets installed from the inside of the house, unlike the French drain that must be installed by digging around the residence. In addition, it offers our clients a lifetime guarantee and peace of mind.
Our team has picked the best solution to protect our client’s basement in Hemmingford and solved all water infiltration problems in the place by connecting our Waterguard System that is installed at the base of the foundation, with our company’s SuperSump that has more than 100 holes to drain the water under the slab.
This place is now completely waterproofed!
At Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, our specialists are well equipped at keeping water and moisture out of your home.
Our years of experience can help to assess your situation and offer you a solution that is guaranteed to remain water and moisture-free.
An example of our work is this house in Hemmingford; we have totally waterproofed the basement thanks to our products, starting from an interior drainage system called the ‘WaterGuard’ that will capture all the water from the walls or from the floors, then our TrispleSafe sump pump will do its job by pumping the water out, and finally our Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier is installed to eliminate muggy feeling caused by high humidity.
In 2015, a client located in Baie-d'Urfé did business with us to install the TripleSafe sump pump system and to finish the basement with finishing products specially designed for basements.
Three years later, our satisfied customer contacted us again because she was now ready to carry out a crawl space insulation and encapsulation project.
Our specialist, therefore, recommended the installation of SilverGlo insulation panels, which are insulation panels made of graphite particles that increase the value of thermal resistance. This insulation is also covered with a radiant barrier to reflect and preserve the heat towards the interior.
The floor has been encapsulated with the CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane, which is a 7-layer expanded polyethylene coating containing an antibacterial additive to block the growth of mold. This membrane blocks the vapors of water that evaporates into the air and redirects them to a well. We are the experts in crawl space insulation and encapsulation and our products are the most effective for your basement space.
If, like this client, you want to solve your problem once and for all, do not hesitate to contact us!
This crawl space in Baie-D’urfe got flooded during spring time and there was presence of mold that developed everywhere.
Water and moisture was damaging the foundation and the concrete of the place.
We sent our specialist Jerry to perform a full inspection and recommend the best solution.
We started by decontaminating the entire crawl space to eliminate mold and fungi.
And since encapsulation will allow the crawl space to be protected at all times, our team encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier membrane which is a membrane that insulates the house from the earth. And have also added the SilverGlo that sheds water and will not support mold growth or provide a home for pests.
And finally, we stabilized the foundations with our SmartJacks galvanized steel support beams. These beams support the joists and will be highly resistant to the hostile environment of the crawl space.
