Before & After Photos

In Lourdes, a homeowner was dealing with an extremely damp basement, weakened support beams, sagging floors, and progressive deterioration caused by excessive moisture, musty odors, and the risk of mold. To restore the home's structural integrity, we installed SmartJack®, an adjustable steel support system designed to stabilize and straighten beams, reduce floor bounce, correct sagging, and restore the home's structural integrity. In addition, the integration of SaniDry Sedona, a powerful dehumidifier specially adapted for basements, has effectively controlled humidity, purified the air, eliminated the risk of mold, and provided long-lasting protection for the materials. This comprehensive project demonstrates our expertise in foundation repair, structural stabilization, moisture management, indoor air quality improvement, and long-term protection of residential basements.

In Saint-Raymond, a homeowner faced a classic case of concrete block blues beneath their patio. With walls all askew and unwelcome water gate-crashing their space, it was quite the sight. But have no fear—Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to the rescue! Our team installed the PowerBrace™ System, adding zinc-plated steel beams to hold the fort. Anchored tightly, these beams say farewell to wall wobbling and water. Check out those photos—the once-engaging battle is now a masterclass in stable grounding. Goodbye mess; hello durable safety. Lucky home, wouldn't you agree?

Mr. Boivin discovered this year that he had a problem with his house foundation. One of its walls was curved in the center about 3 ”towards the interior of the basement. He contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a reliable and permanent solution.

The solution for our client was the installation of 5 ArmorLock Carbon straps linked and attached to the joists using our ArmorLock system. CarbonArmor is made of carbon fibers and epoxy and it helps solidify and stabilize cracked or arched foundation walls. When ground pressure forces foundation walls to bend or tilt inward, this is where the ArmorLock system comes in to help. It serves as additional reinforcement as the straps are attached to the ArmorLock system which is attached to the joist. Holding the foundation wall to the ledge joist will prevent soil pressure from pushing the wall inward.

With this system, Mr. Rousseau can have the peace of mind as his foundation wall will not budge.

StableLock Wall offers an effective and affordable alternative to save foundation walls from failing. Using modern concrete forming and shoring methods, StableLock fills voids and stabilizes existing walls to leave a smooth, strong wall with the best qualities of a newly-constructed basement wall.

We isolated from this foundation from the outside, since it was under a lot of pressure from the earth because of the movement of soil, water, and moisture.

The SentrySeal system and SilverGlo are a combination of products that we use to protect the foundation by isolating it from moisture and excessive heat transfer.

The SentrySeal waterproof membrane is 60 mils thick and is specifically designed to be a complete and consistent barrier to block water vapor.

The SilverGlo insulation is waterproof and offers a thermal resistance value of R-11 thanks to the graphite particles infused into the insulation. In addition, the reflective barrier that covers this insulation allows the heat to be reflected and stored inside to reduce the cost of heating humid air.
