Before & After Photos

The problem

Ms. Lauzé had problems with water infiltration in her basement that had entered through the joint between the footing and the foundation walls. This had created mold and completely damaged her floor.

The solution

Install a WaterGuard interior foundation drain all along the foundation walls. The WaterGuard sits directly on the footing and collects water from the joint and walls to direct it to the existing sump pump system. Once installed, it is covered with concrete, ready for the installation of the floor and the bottom of the drywall, services that Basement Systems can also offer Everlast and ThermalDry.

Water in a crawl space is not a good thing, since it makes the air humid, the air of the whole house is affected by this moisture, and building materials will deteriorate more quickly.

After contacting us, we sent one of our specialists to this crawl space in Marieville  to make an assessment for the waterproofing and encapsulation of this crawl space.

We installed our CleanSpace Liner which is a super-durable, 20mil plastic sheet material designed to permanently prevent moisture, outside air and pests from getting into your crawl space.

Before, this Repentigny homeowner faced persistent worries due to an outdated sump pump prone to failure during crucial times. We stepped in to turn the tide towards trust and tranquility. Enter the TripleSafe Sump Pump, our reliable solution evident in the aftermath. As you can see, what once was a cause for concern is now a testament to innovation—offering peace of mind through our commitment to excellence and hold up as remarkably loyal to ensuring a dry basement for years to come.

Problem

Mr Achachi had moisture problems in his basement. He could see in some places of his basement walls traces of water and this meant that there was water seeping through the foundation walls in his basement.

One of the causes was the presence of cracks in the foundation walls that allowed water and moisture to seep into the basement.

Solution

We first sealed these cracks with our FlexiSpan solution. Next, we installed a SuperSump sump pump system which includes a 1 / 2HP cast iron Zoeller pump. This way the soil water is drained outside away from the house and it can reduce the humidity in the basement. And then a WaterGuard foundation interior drain was laid on the foundation footing. This collects the water coming from the walls and which may be on the surface of the ground to direct it towards the SuperSump to evacuate it.

Today’s sump equipment is better than ever and very reliable.
