Before & After Photos

Discover the transformation in Beauceville, QC, where lingering cracks hinted at a deeper foundation issue. Notice in the before photo the distressing signs of structural wear. Embracing innovation, we implemented the PowerBrace and CarbonArmor systems to fortify the home's foundation effectively. As seen in the after photo, our tailored solutions perennially sealed the cracks, restoring peace of mind and stability to another happy homeowner. We’re committed to reinforcing homes, ensuring your sanctuary stands strong.

In Montmagny, the owners of this house were concerned about their foundation walls, which were beginning to lean inward. Soil pressure was exerting a constant force on the walls, threatening their stability. Cracks were visible, and the basement was becoming highly exposed to moisture and thermal loss. 

By installing our PowerBrace system, the walls are now solidly stabilized, with the possibility of gradual straightening. In addition, SilverGlo insulation panels were added to improve the basement's energy efficiency. The result is a secure foundation, a more comfortable basement and new confidence for homeowners. 

The basement of this house in Saint-Come-Liniere suffered from damp walls, cracks in the foundation, water infiltration, and a risk of mold and structural deterioration. To solve these problems, Systèmes Sous-Sols Québec installed a TrenchDrain drainage pipe, embedded in the floor to capture water directly and direct it to the sump, quickly eliminating any accumulation and preventing flooding while remaining discreet and easy to maintain. The system is complemented by the SuperSump pump, capable of efficiently removing accumulated water, even during heavy rains or snowmelt. To ensure the strength of the walls, we applied PowerBrace, an interior reinforcement that corrects cracks and prevents deformation, ensuring structural stability and safety. Thanks to this combination of solutions, the basement is now dry, healthy, and functional, offering lasting protection against moisture, infiltration, and mold, while improving indoor comfort, safety, and the value of the home.

Before we intervened, this home in Saint-Fabien-de-Panet showed several signs of foundation settlement. The owners had noticed cracks in the footing that were gradually widening, as well as unevenness in the floors and around certain openings in the house. These movements were caused by the ground beneath the structure becoming less stable, which gradually reduced the foundation’s support. Over time, the situation risked leading to more significant structural problems and even more costly repairs.

To stabilize the house permanently, our team installed a system of push piers under the affected sections of the foundation. The push piers were anchored deep into more compact soil to properly redistribute the structure’s weight and provide permanent support. This solution secured the foundation while minimizing excavation around the property. Upon completion of the work, the house had a much more stable structure and was better protected against future ground movements.

Our client in Ste-Catherine-De-La-J-Cartier contacted us through our website because he recently bought a property and the engineer who inspected the property discovered that the back foundation wall is domed inwards. We offered Mr. Dalidec a free inspection to come and take a look at his foundation. Upon completing the inspection, our specialist Roxane decided the best plan would be to install 6 PowerBrace^TM Foundation Wall Repair System beams. Our foreman Jawad then went and carefully completed the installation of the 6 PowerBrace^TM beams. Our client can now sleep easier at night knowing that his foundation walls aren’t crumbling beneath him. Once again, Systèmes Sous-sol Québec comes to the rescue, protecting the foundation of another house!
