A homeowner in Saint-Telesphore, Quebec, contacted us due to issues with a cold and damp basement. Upon inspection, our specialist identified the cause as water infiltration resulting from the bad performance of the existing drainage system. This excess moisture, combined with the cold temperature in the basement, was leading to increased higher energy costs, as HVAC systems were operating more than usual. To address these problems, we installed the WaterGuard internal drainage system, designed to capture and direct infiltrated water to the discharge line, preventing further moisture accumulation. Additionally, we installed SilverGlo insulation panels, which provide an effective thermal barrier, stabilizing temperature fluctuations and thus reducing energy consumption. As a result, the basement is now well-insulated, making it ready for finishing.
Mr. D. contacted us since he was having problems with his sump pump that used to stop working during flood and heavy rains.
When our specialist went to his home, he recommended the SuperSump sump pump system.
The SuperSump system contains a Zoeller pump, a 96-hole liner to allow water in the floor into the liner, an airtight lid that prevents water vapor from escaping, and an alarm system that alerts you when the water shows too high.
This client was worried about her sump pump because she did not feel that the system in place would save the basement in the case of a flood or water infiltrations. She contacted us because she was interested in our patented systems. When our specialist went to her home, he recommended the TripleSafe system which contains 3 pumps in a single hermetic coating. The first pump operates under normal conditions. The second pump starts if there is a problem with the first pump or if the flow and volume of water are too big and fast for the first one. So during a heavy rain, you are protected by two pumps. If this bad weather also brings a power failure, a pump that does not run on a battery will not protect you. This is why the UltraSump pump is a necessity for the worried owners out there. This third pump is powered by a rechargeable battery and the SmartWatch alarm alerts you when the emergency battery is running. This system is the best on the market and nothing is comparable to it. Finally, the hermetic coating serves as a floor drain while blocking the water vapor that would like to escape.
Our client was very pleased with the installation and the peace of mind that the TripleSafe brings her.
Mr. Paul knew that the high level of moisture in his basement was bad for his house health, since it will move upstairs, allowing all the mold and bacteria to spread as well.
After a call from our client in Mirabel, regarding the mentioned issues in his basement, we have waterproofed his place by installing our SuperSump pump system and an Interior drain the WaterGuard.
Once connected, these two products form a highly efficient drainage system that intercepts water from the floor of the basement at the foundation and redirects it away from the foundation of the house.
Wall cracks and changes in the operation of doors and windows, may point that your foundation is sinking and settling.
Our client was constantly trying to repair these symptoms without knowing that there was a permanent solution for all those problems, until he found our company and called us for a free inspection!
Following his call, our team of professionals has installed 10 SmartJack support pillars in order to stabilize this house in Mirabel.
The SmartJack Support Pillars are steel support systems used to stabilize and level the girders and floor joists in a crawl space. In addition they are super strong and are the only solution that addresses soil’s problems.
