Frequently asked questions

Basement waterproofing Vaughan can cost anywhere from a couple of hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. The specific price will depend on a number of factors:

  1. Size – how big your property is

  2. Complexity – are you looking for a small project like repairing a couple of foundation cracks or are you looking for a full-scale exterior basement waterpooring solution that would involve excavation contractors & more?

Basement waterproofing Vaughan can take from a couple of hours to multiple weeks. Depending on the solution you need. If we are talking about a couple of basement crack repairs, this will take less time. If we are talking about basement waterproofing combined with basement underpinning in Vaughan, this will likely take weeks.

Basement cracks can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

  1. Foundation settling: Over time, the soil beneath a foundation can settle or shift, causing the foundation to settle and crack.

  2. Hydrostatic pressure: When the soil around a foundation becomes saturated with water, it can exert pressure on the foundation walls, causing them to crack or bow.

  3. Temperature changes: Extreme temperature changes, such as freezing and thawing, can cause concrete and masonry to expand and contract, leading to cracks.

  4. Poor construction: If the foundation was not built properly or was constructed with poor-quality materials, it may be more prone to cracking.

  5. Natural disasters: Earthquakes, floods, and other natural disasters can cause significant damage to basement walls, leading to cracks.

  6. Water damage: Exposure to water over time, either from leaky pipes or poor drainage, can weaken basement walls and lead to cracking.

It’s important to identify the cause of any basement cracks and address the underlying issue to prevent further damage. A professional inspection can help determine the cause of the cracks and the best course of action for repair.

Basement waterproofing is the process of preventing water from entering a building’s basement or foundation. There are two main types of basement waterproofing: internal and external. Here are the key differences between them:

The first difference is location. internal basement waterproofing involves treating the interior walls and floors of the basement, while external basement waterproofing involves treating the exterior walls and foundation of the building.

In addition, methodology of interior and exterior waterproofing are different. Internal basement waterproofing typically involves applying a waterproof coating or membrane to the interior walls and floors of the basement, as well as installing a drainage system to collect and redirect any water that seeps in. External basement waterproofing, on the other hand, involves excavating the soil around the foundation, applying a waterproof coating or membrane to the exterior walls and foundation, and installing a drainage system to redirect water away from the building.

In most cases interior waterproofing is cheaper, at least in the short-term, however it does require maintenance, so the overll cost will increase over time.

In most cases, exterior waterproofing is considered the most effective, however the recommended approach will change depending on your specific project. Book a FREE estimate with our experts today!
