Before & After Photos

If you are concerned like this customer from Candiac because you see signs of efflorescence, moisture, and water seepage and you see a crack in your concrete wall, do not wait too long before you act. The more you neglect the problem, the more it gets worse. Indeed, a crack brought water and water vapor into the subsoil causing the appearance of efflorescence. In addition, sealing a crack with rigid products such as epoxy is not a long-term solution, because as the wall cracks move, the sealant will break and fall or the crack will reappear at another location, and the problem of water and humidity will come up again. To fix the problem, we inject our patented FlexiSpan sealant which is a urethane-based liquid that, and once dry, will be flexible to block the vapors and water infiltrations and resist the movement of the wall crack

Having discovered our company on Facebook, this customer living in Saint-Lambert area contacted us to tell us about his concerns about humidity and support system in his crawl space. Indeed, the air in the area was very heavy and cold. In addition, the support pillars were not strong enough because they did not support the floor of the upper floor properly, which caused it to sag. These problems are very dangerous for the health of the home and the safety of the family living there.

For example, we sent one of our specialists who recommended the installation of the following products: SilverGlo insulation panels, 12 SmartJack support pillars, WaterGuard interior foundation drain, SuperSump sump pump system, freeze protection IceGuard Discharge Line, LawnScape Discharge Line Discharge Mouth.

With these products, the water can no longer infiltrate the crawl space and affect the air by releasing water vapor, because the water is intercepted by the internal drain and discharged by the sump pump. The water vapor is blocked by the SilverGlo insulation and the crawl space roof is now more than solid thanks to the SmartJacks

Polyurethane injection is one of the best ways to repair a crack in your foundation, without having to dig up the foundation wall.

Our team has injected the polyurethane in this basement in Pointe-Aux-Trembles in order to prevent the infiltration of water.

The chemical expansion of the polyurethane (typically 5-10 times its original volume) makes polyurethane very effective at filling voids within the concrete; these voids are typically invisible when you look at the wall and are often associated with the porosity of the concrete.

Brick blocks and columns do not provide effective and permanent support for the crawl space, as they will move according to the weak ground motions.

So we must put pillars that support the house on stronger soil.

We have stabilized this crawl space in Longueuil by adapting one of our simple solutions from which SmartJack pillars and galvanized steel PowerBrace beams that will lift the foundation to their original position immediately.

Mr. Young has lived in his home for over 10 years. He already had a few cracks in the foundation of his house, but that didn't worry him. Over time, the cracks widened. Worried, Mr. Young decided to contact Systèmes Sous-sol Québec to find a permanent solution to his problem with foundation cracks.

The solution for our client was to install the CarbonArmor straps where there were cracks. This helps to strengthen and stabilize the foundation walls and prevent the cracks from growing.

With this solution, Mr. Young's foundation walls are permanently reinforced.
