Before & After Photos

Our clients who live in Sherbrooke contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Qc because their sump pump stops working regularly and this has caused major water damage in their basement. She and her husband wanted a high-performance system that will give them the peace of mind.

Our foreman and his team removed the old pump to install our TripleSafe sump pump system. It offers 3-level protection with 2 high-performance Zoeller pumps and 1 battery-powered backup pump that's way better than you think. Our system includes an alarm, waterproof cover and supports for the pumps.

Foundation cracks are a big problem that many owners in Sherbrooke face. Reparations by injection, as you can see in the Before picture, is not always the best solution especially if the crack is horizontal. In this case, there is a good chance that water will penetrate back just like it happened with this client. 

We consequently installed a vapor barrier to drain the water towards the interior drain and to have a permanent solution. The SilverGlo membrane as shown in the picture, has an R-value of 11 to isolate foundation walls all over Quebec. 

This basement in Sherbrooke had water seepage that was coming through some cracks in the foundation.

In this case the leak was obvious, since our client was always noticing a pool of water on the floor.

After contacting our company, we sent our team for a free inspection, and therefore we suggested the installation of our interior drainage system’ the Waterguard’.

An exterior drainage system can do extensive damage to your lawn and cost you a lot of money while an interior drain system will eliminate those elements and do an amazing job at keeping your basement dry.

Before encountering our team at Systèmes Sous-sol Québec, the homeowner in Princeville, QC, dealt with a damp, earth-floor crawl space, creating an ideal setting for humidity and discomfort. Our remedy, showcased in the accompanying photos, was the CleanSpace encapsulation system and the SmartDrain system. Notice in the before image the evident issue—a space vulnerable to moisture and the myriad of problems it brings. Fast forward to the after photo, and you’re looking at a transformed space—dry, sealed, and efficiently insulated. Our precise installation offers not just an immediate improvement in air quality and comfort but promises enduring protection against humidity for years to come.

Mr. St-Laurent, a resident of Compton, Quebec, grappled with basement humidity issues. Turning to the internet for a solution, he discovered our website, which offered various remedies for basement moisture. Encouraged, he completed our request form. Promptly, we reached out to him, scheduling a complimentary quote and inspection. Our specialist, Jorge, conducted a thorough assessment of the troublesome basement. He proposed a solution comprising 153ft of WaterGuard interior basement drain, CleanSpace vapor barrier, a TripleSafe sump pump system, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and 40ft of SilverGlo insulation. Accepting Jorge's proposal, Mr. St-Laurent agreed to the installation date. Foreman Felix journeyed to Compton on the appointed day to commence the work. Initially, he installed the TripleSafe™ sump pump in a pit. Subsequently, he excavated a trench along the basement walls and laid the WaterGuard. Then, he applied SilverGlo insulation and the CleanSpace vapor barrier to cover all basement walls. Finally, he installed the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, connecting it to the sump pump, and filled all trenches with cement. With the dedicated efforts of our team at Basement Systems Quebec, Mr. St-Laurent can now bid farewell to worries about basement humidity.
