Deal with Water at the Foundation.
Basement moisture can come from cracks, failed membranes, drainage problems, or poor grading. We inspect the conditions first, then recommend work based on what we find.
Common Signs of a Water Problem
- Damp basement walls
- Water after heavy rain
- Visible foundation cracks
- Musty odours
- Efflorescence on concrete
- Peeling finishes near the floor
Waterproofing Work
The repair depends on access, foundation type, soil, drainage, and the source of the leak. Exterior work can involve excavation, crack repair, membrane installation, drainage board, and weeping-tile work.
- Foundation wall preparation
- Crack repair
- Waterproof membranes
- Drainage board
- Weeping-tile work
- Backfill and site restoration
Repair Before Finishing
Water issues should be addressed before insulation, drywall, or basement finishes are installed. If structural repairs are also needed, we can coordinate the concrete and waterproofing work as one scope.
