Before & After Photos

Mrs.Tramblai noticed the presence of moisture in her Crawl Space. In addition, she wanted to find a solution to prevent cold air from entering her cellar.

Following her call, our crawl space specialist advised her to install a CleanSpace membrane and a drainage mattress to encapsulate the service cellar. In addition, our specialist recommended installing the support pillars which is the best system to lift above floors and walls back to their original position

Following work in her Crawl Space, this resident of Pointe St Charles in Montreal was very satisfied with the results obtained. She can now use her Crawl space as a storage space.

The problem: This client from Montreal was having problems with his foundation that was sagging on a corner of his house. You could see in the picture big cracks and even stair-type cracks.

The solution: First, we excavated all the soil from the corner of the house, up to the footing. Then, we put our PushPiers, to support the foundation. Note that it is possible to straighten the foundation back to its original state, but this depends on several factors and every project is different.

The SmartJack system raises and stabilizes beams and floor joists in your crawl space. A specially designed solid backfill base addresses the problem of inadequate foundation soil by transferring the weight of the house to a competent soil layer. Steel columns are secured under the beams or joists of the crawl space. Robust threaded rods allow each SmartJack pole to be adjusted to the desired height. We are very happy to have worked on this project!

Problem

Mr. Boerr's building sank into the ground. Several external and internal signs were apparent including cracks on the corners of the doors and windows, in addition to  cracks on the stairs.

Solution

Pile up the building. Our team installed the push piers under the footing to stabilize it and prevent any future subsidence.

Without helical fins, Push Piers can be driven to greater depths without bending, providing support for heavier structures.

We have stabilized our client’s foundations permanently in Montreal-Nord thanks to our Push Piers system.

Push Piers are often the least risky solution when local soil conditions are unknown.

In addition, Push Piers support pillars can be installed from inside and outside and the finish will be clean and neat.
