Cellars areas are sometimes used by the owners to store several objects and products as is the case of our client in Sainte-Adèle. This family contacted us to isolate their cellar area because infiltration of water and moisture threatened their property. To stop their worries, we recommended insulating the stone walls with our Foamax wall insulation that holds the heat inside. Then we insulated the floor with TerraBlock which is a product specially designed for crawl space floors. We also installed our CleanSpace Drain Mat and Vapor Barrier and SuperSump Sump Pump System to evacuate all intercepted water away from home.
Problem
Water infiltration under the concrete slab in the basement.
Mr. Francoeur wants to prevent future damage related to water infiltration and humidity.
Solution
Installation of a WaterGuard interior foundation drain and a SuperSump sump pump system.
Mr. Lepage had just bought his house and he quickly discovered hidden defects. At the walls, interior and exterior, there were several cracks on the foundation, around the basement window, on the brick wall.
The client contacted us and our customer service team made an appointment with one of our foundation experts.
John, our specialist, completed his full assessment of almost 2 hours. He immediately saw that the client's concerns were realistic and that the foundation had to be stabilized. The sagging foundation causes negative effects on the rest of the house, so waiting will only make matters worse. The suggested solution was the installation of 3 PushPiers screw piles, ensuring a permanent solution to stabilize the foundation. We are delighted to have solved the problem of this customer, in Sainte-Catherine, Qc.
Our clients in TMR had water problems in his basement for over 5 years. They have decided recently to sell their house, and as such to avoid having any problems during the sale, they decided to finally fix this issue.
They needed a reliable sump pump system that solved their problem permanently. After undergoing extensive research, they found that the SuperSump pumping system would remedy their situation for good.
The clients were swayed by the many features that the SuperSump offers such as a 1/3 hp reliable iron cast pump and a WaterWatch alarm that sounds if the water level rises due to a pump failure.
What's more, the clients loved the fact that the warranty can be transferred to the new owners, aiding them in selling their home.
Mrs. Chan had water infiltration problems in her basement, due to the hydrostatic water pressure under her basement’s slab.
Our team has installed our WaterGuard system in order to collect any water leaking at the foundation wall joints and drained this water to an installed SuperSump sump pump, the best sump pump in Quebec.
Once the Waterguard was installed in the basement, we have layered cement on top and smoothed it for a nice final look.
