Without question, Basement Waterproofing (as well
as other foundation-related work) is one of the most
"un-glamorous" types of home repairs imaginable. But it is one of
the most important.
Even minor leaks that widen and spread throughout the basement foundation
wall(s) can cause serious
damage to the interior
of the home, including potential structural problems.
Quality of Workmanship:
The permanent waterproofing of your basement is a skill that takes
years of experience to master. And while there are several
basement waterproofing and renovation companies out there, only a select number of them meet the
standards set by our Renovation Co-op. (see about
the Renovation Co-op)
All Co-op trades and services are approved service providers of The
Canadian Renovation Funding Program. (see Program)
Whether you require renovation financing or not, you will always save money by dealing
directly with an approved Renovation Co-op
member-service who has gained the trust of our participating lenders,
realtors, bank managers, credit unions and other important
organizations. |

Basically,
there are 2 ways to deal with leaky basement foundation walls:
1- Excavate around the outer wall,
inspect for cracks. Repair visible cracks, replace bad weeping
tiles, seal wall and back-fill. This has always been the preferred method
for most basement waterproofing.
2- Create an Interior Drainage System
by installing a rubberized membrane against the inner foundation wall
and creating an interior weeping tile system.
This second method of basement waterproofing is normally utilized when the walls are composed of
brick, stone or block and/or where there is insufficient room to dig
along the outer wall(s). An Interior Drainage System can also be
a less costly option.
