Before & After Photos

Problem

Stone foundation walls are cracked and one part of the wall is falling inwards.

Solution

Creation of a retaining wall on which we installed our PowerBrace beams to stabilize the inclined wall.

This Magog customer contacted us to tell us about his concerns regarding his house foundations after noticing big cracks in the drywall and as well as the floors.

Following the request of our client, we sent our specialist to perform a complete internal and external evaluation of the house and we installed 9 steel support pillars PushPiers.

The PushPier is one of our patented support products and the best of its kind on the market. We have also installed an outdoor French drain and the SentrySeal membrane which serves as protection against the moisture entering through the pores of the concrete. And finally, we have installed our SilverGlo insulation panels, which are panels that reflect the heat to your basement.

A homeowner in Lotbiniere, Quebec, was worried because his home had declined by 4 inches on one side, and he had multiple cracks in his basement. He searched on Google for someone to help him fix these issues when he came across our website. After seeing our many job photos of foundation repairs, he filled out the contact request form. We quickly called Mr. Therrien to book him a free inspection and estimate. Our specialist Patrick visited him in his home and conducted the inspection. He came to the conclusion that it would be best to install 11 push piers in order to stabilize the foundation and keep it from declining any further. Mr. Therrien accepted his proposal, and we scheduled the work for a time that was convenient for him. Our foreman David headed to the home at the scheduled time and began the work. He dug around the foundation on the inside of the basement in the areas the push piers would be installed and carefully installed all of them. He then covered all the holes with cement to hide all the piers. Mr. Therrien can now sleep easily knowing his home’s foundation is stable underneath him. Another job well done by our team at Systemes Sous-Sol Quebec.

Mr. Boivin discovered this year that he had a problem with his house foundation. One of its walls was curved in the center about 3 ”towards the interior of the basement. He contacted Systèmes Sous-sol Québec for a reliable and permanent solution.

The solution for our client was the installation of 5 ArmorLock Carbon straps linked and attached to the joists using our ArmorLock system. CarbonArmor is made of carbon fibers and epoxy and it helps solidify and stabilize cracked or arched foundation walls. When ground pressure forces foundation walls to bend or tilt inward, this is where the ArmorLock system comes in to help. It serves as additional reinforcement as the straps are attached to the ArmorLock system which is attached to the joist. Holding the foundation wall to the ledge joist will prevent soil pressure from pushing the wall inward.

With this system, Mr. Rousseau can have the peace of mind as his foundation wall will not budge.
