Many homeowners in Saint-Constant suffer from Foundation cracks in their houses. Patching repairs are not always the best solution.
We opted to install SmartJack poles in order to stabilize the floors, and a vapor barrier to drain the water to the inner drain and have a permanent solution.
ThermalDry waterproofing membrane does not only stop humidity from dissipating into the basement but also could lead any water infiltration down to the WaterGuard. ThermalDry also reflects the heat back into the basement.
Many residents in Quebec suffer from water infiltration into their basements and our client in Saint-Constant find out that his existing sump pump was not working properly and the open sump which allowed all the moisture to rise in his basement.
Our team has installed our powerful sump system, the SuperSump, which is equipped with the best features such as a fully sealed sump, holes in the sump to drain water from the ground, a cast iron pump that performs best as well as an alarm that would sound if the water level rose too high in the sump.
This basement in Saint-Constant was dealing with serious flooding problems . Water was seeping especially during every thaw season, and cracks had started to increase in its foundation wall.
We have solved this basement problems after being contacted by our client.
After her approval, our team installed a WaterGuard interior drain system. It is a drainage system that is placed under the floor slab on the perimeter of the foundation. Then, in order to direct the water from the cracks to the WaterGuard, our team encapsulated part of the walls with our CleanSpace membrane. At last we installed a SuperSump sump pump system to pump water out of the house. Eventually, our plumber connected the drains to the city sewers.
Our client had previously installed only a partial WaterGuard system because he had water seepage from only one side. Over time, new leaks had appeared and it was necessary to run the rest of the perimeter of the basement with the WaterGuard system.
Our specialist therefore proceeded to install the rest of the WaterGuard in order to provide optimal protection against water infiltration.
Thanks to our intervention, our client benefits from a basement protected against any type of water infiltration.
Our company’s sump pump systems have the following features: a good cast iron pump, a tight-fitting lid to keep the moisture from entering the basement, an alarm system that sounds when the water level is close to the overflow point, a floor drain in case a plumbing leak occurs, and finally a booster pump system which operates on a direct current battery.
