At a residence in Sainte-Christine, our team replaced the old sump pump to better protect the basement against water seepage and the risk of flooding. We installed the TripleSafe Sump Pump System, a high-performance pumping solution consisting of three separate pumps: a primary pump, a secondary pump for heavy water accumulation, and a battery-powered backup pump that ensures operation even during a power outage.

To ensure efficient water drainage, we also added a new discharge line using the IceGuard, designed to prevent blockages caused by freezing during the winter. To reduce water accumulation around the foundation and improve stormwater management, a gutter downspout extension was also installed to divert rainwater away from the house. This combination of improvements optimizes basement drainage, protects the foundation, and maintains a dry and safe environment year-round.

The WaterGuard Drain is specifically designed to be placed above the base on a bed of rocks, slowing down the flow of water and preventing the drain from clogging. In addition, it is important that it contains a 3/8 inch built-in space between the floor and the wall to drain infiltrations from the wall. Spacers visible along the wall allow water to be collected in the drain while blocking dirt and debris. Once covered with concrete, the drain merges into the decor without damaging the structure of the foundation. In order to perform system checks, we also install an inspection port that allows access to the drain and ensures its smooth operation over the years. The WaterGuard drain is the new technology in drainage and its effectiveness is proven!
