Sump Pump Installed in Montreal

Mrs. R, a Montreal resident, was having water infiltration problems in her basement, and she needed to get this problem fixed ASAP, and for good, so she could reuse her basement fully, without being worried about any future problems.

Furthermore, her old sump pump wasn’t working properly and water was infiltrating into her basement, inside the wall bricks, and on the floors, and in order to fix this problem, our team has replaced the existing sump pump pit by our SuperSump, which is not only hermetically sealed to prevent humidity from going out but also has an alarm system that sounds if the pump stops working and the water level reaches the top.

In the case of this client, we later added as per the client's request an UltraSump battery backup system, which is a backup system that can discharge about 12,000 gallons on one discharge if the main pump ever stops working in cases such as failure, a circuit break or power outage.

Cold basement walls make your entire basement colder in the winter. The cold surface also creates condensation in the summer. Insulating your basement walls with the right material can help make your basement warmer and drier.

Those problems were occurring in our client’s basement in Montreal, and this is when she deceided to contact us!

Our team suggested the installation of 2 from our products: ThermalDry and Foamax.

Our thermalDry system is Stain resistant.Won't warp, bow or delaminate like wood products.

As for our Foamax, it really makes a big difference in the temperature of your walls, providing a comfortable basement and lowering heating costs.

Water infiltration problems in a basement in Montreal, Qc

Ms. Lauzon had a problem with water infiltration in a room in her basement. Wall efflorescence means that there is water and moisture seeping into the walls and this causes a white powdery substance (mineral salts) to appear on the concrete walls. .

 

The solution

Install a sump pump system as well as a WaterGuard interior drain. First, a hole was dug to install our SuperSump sump pump system. It features a powerful ⅓ HP Zoeller cast iron sump pump capable of pumping 8,300 gallons of water per hour out of your basement to a height of 8 feet. Then a trench is dug all along the foundation walls to reach the foundation footing and the WaterGuard is laid in it. It collects water from the walls and the floor.

 

With this solution, Ms. Lauzon now has a permanently dry basement.

Replacing an old sump pump and waterproofing a basement in Montreal, Qc

Our client wanted to protect his basement from water infiltration.

To do this, our specialist recommended the installation of a TripleSafe sump pump system with a WaterGuard drain. This combination helps to evacuate the water that can infiltrate in an effective way. In order to give a finished look to the basement wall, we installed BrightWall walls. They protect the Basement and give it a finished look.

Thanks to these solutions, our client's basement is protected against infiltration.
