Before & After Photos

Our client had a foundation problem. The hydrostatic pressure had bent the foundation of his walls in the basement.

After looking for solutions on the internet, she decided to contact Système Sous-ol. An appointment was set and a specialist went to do an assessment.

In order to fix the problem, PowerBraces were needed. It was necessary to support the foundation walls first and then straighten them.

Thanks to our company, our client solved her foundation problems and can now enjoy now a safe house.

Problem

Mr. Lincourt wanted to have the block foundation walls of a house he needed to buy inspected, as one of the walls were sloping inward into the basement and some blocks were also pushed inward due to external ground pressure.

Solution

In order to stabilize and reinforce problematic walls, our team of experts installed our galvanized steel PowerBrace beams on the foundation walls. Attached to the floor and joists, the walls got stabilized. There is a clamping device on the PowerBraces to tighten them and slightly straighten the walls over time in order to return them to their original position.

Our client from Brownsburg noticed that the walls of his foundation were bending inward, and knew that he needed to fix this problem immediately before it gets worse!

After contacting us, our specialist inspected the basement and recommended the installation of the best products that could repair this problem permanently.

Furthermore, we installed several PowerBrace support beams to stabilize the foundation walls and an ArmLock fasteners system that attaches CarbonArmor carbon fiber strips to the joist.

Mr. Walls from Ivry-Sur-Le-Lac contacted us to stabilize his foundation wall, which was starting to weaken.

We have solved this solution with our Supportworks' patented PowerBrace system which is specifically designed to stabilize foundation walls with zinc-plated steel beams that adapt to your wall height and floor joists.

Our customer’s foundation in Lachute was curving, which is a serious problem and sign of failure in the basement foundation walls.

We have solved this problem, by installing PowerBrace galvanized steel beams and several smartJacks.

The beams form a system designed specifically to support the walls of failed foundations and to straighten the walls to their original position over time. Zinc coated, the PowerBrace system resists erosion, reduces abrasion and makes beams non-toxic

As for the SmartJack  Support Pillars , those are steel support systems used to stabilized and level the girders and floor joists in a crawl space.

In Addition they are super strong (support loads of more than 60,000 lbs.), and is the only solution that addresses problem soils.

Our patented system stands out from the others and we are very happy to have had the chance to install it at our customer’s place to solve his problem once and for all!
