Beauport: foundations on the former terraces of the St. Lawrence
The borough of Beauport stretches along the Côte de Beaupré, between downtown Quebec City and Montmorency Falls. Built on several tiered marine terraces, Beauport has a geology that varies according to altitude: clay from the Champlain Sea in the lower sectors near the river, glacial till and sand on the upper terraces. The houses on Avenue Royale, one of the oldest roads in America, sit alongside the modern developments on Boulevard des Chutes, each with its own distinct foundation issues.
Montmorency Falls and the local aquifer
The Montmorency River and its tributaries maintain a high water level in several areas of Beauport. The neighbourhoods of Vieux-Beauport, between Sainte-Anne Boulevard and the river, are subject to seasonal hydrostatic pressure that forces water through the slightest cracks. The deep frost in the Quebec City region – more than 1.2 metres – amplifies this phenomenon. Injection of foundation cracks is the most effective solution to seal these openings before they cause interior damage.
Developments in the 1970s and 1990s
Beauport underwent a major residential expansion between 1970 and 1995. The Villeneuve, Courville and Giffard sectors have seen hundreds of bungalows and two-storey houses grow, the foundations of which are now approaching 30 to 50 years old. Foundation cracks, casing rod infiltrations, and window corner cracks are common. Flexible polyrethane injection effectively treats these problems. Our contractors serve all of Beauport and the surrounding areas of Charlesbourg and Old Quebec. Free inspection.
