Saint-Georges: Foundation cracks in the heart of the Beauce region
Saint-Georges, the economic capital of the Beauce region, stretches on both sides of the Chaudière River in a valley steep between the Appalachian hills. This geography creates a funnel effect for spring flooding, and the city has suffered repeated major flooding. The foundations of the riverside neighbourhoods suffered the consequences of these events: saturated concrete, corroded reinforcement, cracks widened by frost. The Beauce subsoil, composed of Appalachian till and alluvium from the Chaudière, is less clayey than that of the Quebec City region, but differential settlements are still frequent.
Beauce’s dynamism and foundations
Saint-Georges is experiencing constant growth, with many real estate projects in high-rise areas, sheltered from flooding. Homes from the 1960s to 1990s, located closer to the river, often have problems: foundation cracks aggravated by past flooding, formwork rod infiltration, and deteriorated joints on block foundations. The active real estate market makes foundation inspection a must for buyers.
Solutions for Beauce foundations
Flexible polyrethane crack injection is particularly suitable for foundations exposed to flooding: the resin reacts to contact with water and maintains its tightness even under high pressure. For properties in flood zones, exterior waterproofing provides complete protection. Our contractors serve Saint-Georges, Sainte-Marie, Lac-Mégantic and Thetford Mines.
