Before & After Photos

Like most basements, this one had water intrusions at the entrances. The owner contacted us to find out what we could do to resolve this problem. Our waterproofing system is installed above the footing, under the concrete. It thus captures all the water that rises from the ground before it reaches the surface and directs it to the water pump that we have installed at the lowest point. In order to prevent moisture from escaping into the house, we also installed a vapor barrier membrane on the walls.

There was humidity and water infiltration in this crawl space of a house in Verdun. This created an odor of dampness which was present in the house all the time. Mr. Chan's sump pump did not always work and had caused water damage in the past.

The solution for our client was to first replace their pump with our SuperSump sump pump system. This features a powerful ⅓ HP Zoeller cast-iron sump pump capable of pumping 8,300 liters of water out of your basement per hour, then our experts laid a drainage membrane on the floor in the ground of the crawl space. This membrane allows surface water to flow into the SuperSump and thus be forced out. They then installed our CleanSpace coating on top of the membrane. This helps lock in moisture from the soil, thus isolating the house from the earth. It also gives a clear and clean appearance to the crawl space. Finally, in order to filter the air and remove any moisture, our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed and connected to the SuperSump.

The floor of Mr. Hudson's house had been sagging for a long time. It was no longer straight and our client was having too much difficulty closing the doors and windows. There was high humidity in the crawl space.

Solution

Reinforce the structure of the house with our galvanized steel SmartJack pillars. Insulate and encapsulate the crawl space to reduce humidity and make it a storage space. The space will be drier and the air healthier.

In this residence in Saint-Ambroise-de-Kildare, the crawl space suffered from recurring water infiltration after rain and snowmelt. Stagnant moisture promoted odors and began to weaken some joists, a common problem in crawl spaces where water is neither controlled nor drained effectively.

The space was secured by installing the SmartSump™ crawl space sump pump system, specially designed to maintain a dry and clean environment. Equipped with a Zoeller® main pump, a sump alarm, and compatible with an UltraSump® battery backup pump, the system ensures reliable water infiltration management. To correct floor sagging and stabilize the structure, SmartJack™ adjustable supports were also added, reinforcing the joists and restoring floor stability. The crawl space is now dry, stable, and better protected against humidity fluctuations.

Moisture is very often damaging to a home and will cause unpleasant odors, and can also attack the wood and thus create mold.

Mr. Gilles from Anjou started having those problems in his house and contacted us in order to help him find the best solution with the minimum cost.

Our technicians led by foreman Petru then proceeded to install a CleanSpace membrane in order to stop water vapor from flowing up the soil and through the walls, and a SmartSump pump system that is equipped with a cast-iron Zoeller sump pump, a reliable liner, a sump alarm, and an optional battery backup sump pump, it's exactly what you need to ensure a dry crawl space all the time!
