Before & After Photos

Before tackling the persistent issue of water infiltration in a Sainte-Clotilde-de-Châteauguay basement, our team at Systèmes Sous-Sol Québec witnessed the distressing signs of water damage firsthand, as seen in the before photo. Understanding the need for a reliable and long-lasting solution, we designed a customized system featuring our WaterGuard perimeter drainage, TripleSafe Sump Pump, and IceGuard to ensure peace of mind during the frosty Quebec winters. The transformation is evident in the after photo – a dry, healthy basement ready to face any weather challenge. By embracing our mission to deliver a remarkable customer experience, this project stands as a testament to our commitment to safeguarding homes and providing tranquility to homeowners.

If you want to stop mold from growing in your basement, you will want to make sure the walls, flooring and any items inside the basement are completely dried.

By doing so you need to waterproof the entire area, by installing a good sump pump system, such as our TripleSafe sump pump.

When choosing a sump pump system for your home, there are several features to consider. Our Company’s pumping systems include an alarm, watertight cover and check valve.

PROBLEM

There was a major flooding in the basement of this residence in Rougemont, Qc. The water had infiltrated quickly and in large quantities and the basement was completely ruined. Our client got very worried that this might affect badly on the rest of his house.

SOLUTION

Our team reacted quickly and proceeded with an installation that would guarantee a dry space and will be protected from any future flooding.

 A SuperSump pump was installed, which is the most efficient pump capable of pumping 2200 gallons per hour, quietly and efficiently.

The SuperSump can be installed with an optional UltraSump Battery Backup Sump Pump, which can pump out 11,500 gallons or more on a single charge!

In the basement of our house, which is a construction dating from 1954, there is a hole about 30 cm in diameter. There is always water in the hole. When it rains a lot or when the snow melts, the water level rises and humidifies the surroundings, but nothing more. This hole was there when we bought the house 16 years ago. We would like to know what it is for and what we need to do. We would also like to put a camera in the floor drain that is next to the hole because we have already placed a pump in the hole to drain the water into the floor drain, but the floor drain was not working properly when there was any flow. We would like to know if the floor drain is clogged. "

No problem! The SuperSump sump pump system is the solution. This very powerful pump has been installed to intercept water where it seeps. Thus, once the hole is blocked and the pump installed, the space in the basement is protected against infiltration because this pump has been connected to the floor drain. We are happy to have been able to solve the problem of our client!

Our client’s basement was not insulated properly and the wood was exposed to the air causing vapor and seepage problems.

You can now compare this picture to the previous one. The wall and floor are totally insulated and the wall is now dry and lighted.
