This is one of the most popular waterproofing services in Innisfil. This method aims to create a barrier that effectively keeps water away from the foundation, ensuring the interior of the building remains dry and free from moisture-related issues.

Internal waterproofing is a method of managing water that has already made it to your basement. As a part of interior waterproofing, our team will apply a waterproofing membrane to the interior walls of your basement. The membrane will direct water to the drainage system and once water hits a certain level, the sump pump will push the water outside your basement via a discharge line. This method of waterproofing is usually more affordable compared to exterior waterproofing but requires maintenance that will eventually drive the cost up.
