Foundation, Waterproofing & Masonry Services
Seven services, one Toronto team, grouped the way we triage a job on site: what threatens the structure, what is letting water in, and what protects the house once the first two are handled. Every one of them starts with the same free inspection.
Work that holds the house up
Movement, settling, and cracks that affect the wall itself. These are assessed first, because every other decision depends on the answer.
Engineered scope
Basement Underpinning
Structural underpinning to lower a basement floor or stabilise a settling foundation — a specialist, sequenced process with engineered drawings and permits coordinated as part of the work.
Underpinning details
Graded on site
Foundation Crack Repair
Injection and structural repair for vertical, diagonal, horizontal, and stair-step cracks in poured concrete or block foundations — matched to what the crack is doing, not to a standard patch.
Crack repair detailsStopping the water at its entry point
With the structure sound, the question becomes where water is arriving and whether it is better stopped outside the wall or managed inside it.
Outside the wall
Exterior Waterproofing
Excavation to the footing, membrane and drainage board installation, and weeping tile, so water is stopped before it reaches the wall.

Inside the wall
Interior Waterproofing
Interior weeping tile and drainage systems for basements where exterior excavation isn’t practical or necessary.

Find the source
Basement Leak Repair
Tracing an active leak to its source — a crack, a window well, a tie rod hole, or the grading outside — and sealing it there.
Learn moreKeeping the repair working
The quieter parts of the system that decide whether the fix is still holding in five winters’ time: pumped drainage and sound mortar.
Sump Pumps
Supply and installation of sump pump systems, including backup options, to move groundwater away from the foundation instead of letting it sit against the wall.
Learn moreMasonry Repair
Tuckpointing, brick and block repair, and parging for foundations, retaining walls, and above-grade masonry where mortar has worn back past the brick face.

You Don’t Have to Pick the Service
Most people call describing what they can see, not what they think they need. That is the right way round — here is roughly where each symptom tends to lead once we have looked at it.
Symptom · Dry crack
“There’s a crack, but it isn’t wet”
A visible line in the wall that has never leaked. The first job is deciding whether it is a shrinkage crack or a moving one.
Usually leads toAn inspection and a grading. Often nothing further, sometimes crack repair.
Symptom · Damp wall
“The wall is damp after it rains”
Water appearing on or near the wall, sometimes with staining or a chalky white residue at the surface.
Usually leads toLeak repair, then a decision between interior and exterior waterproofing.
Symptom · Standing water
“Water pools on the basement floor”
Water arriving faster than it leaves, often at the joint where the floor slab meets the wall, and often after snowmelt.
Usually leads toDrainage assessment, an interior system and a sump pump, or exterior work.
Symptom · Movement
“Doors stick and floors slope”
Signs the structure itself has shifted: widening stair-step cracks, out-of-square openings, or a wall leaning inward.
Usually leads toA structural assessment, and where it is genuinely warranted, underpinning.
Still not sure? Describe what you can see and leave the categorising to us. The inspection is free, the grading is honest, and if nothing needs doing we will tell you that too.

That’s what the inspection is for. Tell us what you’re seeing — a crack, a damp wall, a slow leak after rain — and we’ll tell you what it actually is before recommending anything.
