Experiencing a Wet Basement in Your Home?
A wet basement isn’t just an inconvenience — it can lead to mold growth, structural damage, and costly repairs. And once water gets in, removing it is no easy task.
The Best Defense? Stop Water Before It Starts.
If you already have a sump pump and proper drainage, you’re off to a good start. But sometimes, that’s not enough. Heavy rain, poor grading, cracks in the foundation, and aging infrastructure can still let moisture in.
Why Basement Waterproofing Matters
Basement waterproofing is your home’s first line of defense against water intrusion. With the right waterproofing techniques, you can:
Prevent water from seeping through walls and floors
Reduce humidity and mold risk
Protect your foundation and structural integrity
Increase your home’s value and livable space
There are several waterproofing options available, and the best solution depends on your home’s specific needs.

Exterior Waterproofing: The First Line of Defense
Exterior waterproofing is a proven method for sealing your foundation and protecting your home from serious water intrusion.
If you’re noticing cracks or faults in your foundation, this service can help stop leaks before they reach the interior of your basement.
Exterior Waterproofing, uses advanced materials and techniques designed to fully seal your foundation and stop leaks in their tracks.
Yes, waterproofing may cost more up front, but it delivers long-term peace of mind. It’s a comprehensive solution that doesn’t cut corners — ensuring your home stays dry and protected even in the harshest weather.
Interior Waterproofing: Control Water from the Inside
Interior waterproofing is designed to manage and redirect water that makes its way into your basement — before it causes damage.
If you have a leaky or damp basement, this method helps by capturing water as it enters and safely rerouting it away from your home.
How It Works:
Interior waterproofing systems typically include:
Interior drainage channels
Sump pumps
Discharge pipes
Moisture barriers on walls or floors
These systems work together to intercept water at the point of entry, whether it’s seeping through basement walls, floor joints, or the footing.
Sump Pump Installation
A sump pump is a critical component of any effective basement waterproofing system.
It offers a reliable and efficient way to remove excess water from your basement and direct it to a safe drainage area — keeping your home dry and protected.
French Drain Installation
A French drain is a proven and effective method for redirecting water away from your foundation — helping to prevent basement leaks and structural damage.
It works by creating a controlled drainage path using a gravel-filled trench and a perforated pipe.
Window Well & Drain Systems
Basement windows are common weak spots when it comes to water intrusion — especially during heavy rain or snowmelt.
Without proper drainage and protection, window wells can collect water and direct it straight into your basement.
We install window well drains and protective barriers to prevent water from pooling around your basement windows. This ensures that water is redirected away from your foundation and doesn’t seep into your home.
Invest in Basement Waterproofing
Basement waterproofing is one of the smartest investments you can make for your Brampton home.
It improves your home’s value, protects its structure, and helps you avoid costly damage from water infiltration.
Safeguard the Value of Your Home
Waterproofing reduces moisture buildup that can cause musty odours, mold, and allergens — all of which affect your home’s air quality and your family’s health.
By keeping your basement dry, you’re not just protecting your property — you’re also creating a cleaner, healthier living space.
Protect Your Foundation from Deterioration
Over time, water can break down your foundation.
Basement waterproofing reinforces structural integrity, prevents cracks, and ensures long-term stability.
Whether you’re staying in your home or preparing to sell, this investment adds real value and peace of mind.
Multiple Waterproofing Options to Fit Your Needs
Not every basement needs the same solution. We offer:
Exterior Waterproofing – Ideal for stopping water before it reaches your foundation.
Interior Waterproofing – Great for homes with space limitations or issues caused by hydrostatic pressure beneath the slab.
Custom Drainage Solutions – Including sump pumps, weeping tiles, and more.
Even if exterior waterproofing isn’t an option, interior systems still offer powerful protection at a more affordable cost.
Common Signs You Need Basement Waterproofing
We often find water issues in areas such as:
Window wells – Water pooling around windows can leak inside.
Block or brick foundations – Mortar joints allow water to seep in.
Joints and sills – Especially around additions or home extensions.
Where concrete meets brick – A common entry point for moisture.
If you’ve noticed damp walls, musty smells, or minor leaks, it’s time to act.
