By installing a drainage system around the inside of the basement along the wall, you can capture water at the most common point of entry-the floor/ wall joint.
You can also capture water from the walls and prevent the center of the floor from leaking by intercepting the water at the perimeter of the floor before it gets to the center.
We applied this system in our client’s basement in Outremont and waterproofed the whole area.
This customer wanted the peace of mind that comes with this solution's lifetime warranty. This guarantee is even transferable to the next owner, in case the house was sold.
SOLUTION
Our customer chose the SuperSump pump product which included; 1 electric pump, 1 alarm and 1 drain. SuperPump can pump 2,200 gallons per hour, quietly and efficiently.
He also chose the WaterGuard product. WaterGuard is a drainage system that leads water to the pump, to be then evacuated outside the house, at a safe distance.
Our client can now enjoy a dry basement, year round and protect his investment. Systèmes Sous-sol Québec is happy to have resolved Mr. Antoine's problem in Villeray, QC.
Mrs. Amy T needed to change her sump pump, which was no longer functional since water was accumulating at the bottom of the sump in the basement. After some research on the net, she found Basement Systems Quebec and was impressed by our client’s feedback regarding our sump pump systems.
Our team of specialist has replaced her old sump pump by our company’s SuperSump which one of the top sump pump systems since it has an inside durable layer with more than 100 holes to drain the soil under the slab and keep the water table low, an airtight floor drain, a Waterwatch alarm system for extra protection from water floods, and comes with a Zoeller cast iron 1/3 hp pump which pumps up to 2,200 gallons per hour at a head of 8 feet.
Problem
Water infiltration through the joint between the concrete slab and the foundation walls, in addition to humidity in the basement.
Solution
Waterproofing the basement by installing our WaterGuard interior French drain all along the foundation walls. Installing our CleanSpace vapor barrier on the foundation walls to block moisture from them and then installing our SuperSump sump pump system
Mr. Tomaszewski contacted us because his basement needed repairs. His basement was experiencing water infiltration and got very damp. Our team installed an interior drain system and a new sump pump system. Our workers also encapsulated the walls with a CleanSpace membrane, to eliminate humidity in the basement. To prevent the outside and inside air from mixing, we installed thermal insulation panels on all the walls.
