Before & After Photos

We have repaired this house’s foundation in Wentworth, and stabilized it to resist ground movement by installing 7 support pillars Pushpiers

The PushPier pillar is a patented product and it features an outer sleeve that reinforces the pillar device directly under the support which is the most critical place.

 It strengthens this area and prevents twisting, distortion and rotation that are commonly observed in other support pillar devices.

In Très-Saint-Rédempteur, a homeowner began to worry when cracks appeared in the foundation walls, moisture seeped in, and some walls began to lean inward. Little by little, the risk became real: loss of comfort, mold growth, and fear of more serious subsidence.

Faced with these problems, our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec stepped in with a reliable solution: our PowerBrace® system. These galvanized steel beams, measured and customized on site, were installed along the walls to stabilize them immediately. Securely attached to the floor and ceiling, they will even gradually straighten the walls over time, all without having to dig or do any invasive work.

Today, the house is protected, the basement is healthier, and the owner can finally enjoy peace of mind, knowing that their foundation is in good hands.

The problem

The foundation walls blocks of Mr. Moreau's house had moved and he feared from house sagging. Knowing the problem, he took the necessary measures to protect his investment and therefore stabilize his foundation walls.

The block foundation walls had staircase-like cracks in a few places and then the bottom of one of the walls started to slope slightly inward into the basement. It was actually signs of sagging foundations. He contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to have a reliable and above all permanent solution!

The solution

The installation of our PowerBrace steel beams. They stabilize foundation walls and can be tightened over time to straighten sloping walls. No need to excavate with this solution and the beams are coated with zinc so it will not rust.

With this solution, Mr. Moreau will be able to have the peace of mind as his foundation walls got stabilized once and for all.

Our client noticed that the floor of his house was unstable and slightly tilted. It was actually due to the retaining wall that had started to show signs of subsidence.

In order to find a solution to the problem, he contacted Système Sous-sol Québec to obtain a free quote.

After a visit from a specialist, it was agreed to install a patented SmartJack support system. The goal was to support the joists of the house and get the floor back to its original level.

Our client now benefits from a house with solid foundations thanks to Système Sous-sol Québec.

This crawl space in Gore had started to fall, and this is really dangerous!  That's why as soon as Mr. Morin noticed this problem he gave us a call in order to provide him with the best and most effective solution available.

After a free and professional inspection, we determined that the use of our patented SmartJack crawl space stabilizer was necessary to support this crawl space.

Our SmartJack provides supplemental support to crawl spaces and can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, taking them back to their original position.

The installation was done so our customer will not need to worry about his crawl space any longer!
