What Basement Waterproofing Approach is Right for You?
Interior vs Exterior Basement Waterproofing - Considerations
Basement waterproofing is a process of preventing water from entering your basement and causing damage to your home. There are two main types of basement waterproofing: exterior and interior.
Exterior waterproofing involves excavating the soil around the foundation walls and applying a waterproof coating or membrane to the outside of the walls. Exterior waterproofing is more expensive than interior waterproofing because it requires excavation and more extensive work, but it provides long-lasting protection for your basement and helps prevent water from making it inside your basement.
Interior waterproofing on the other hand is rather a water management technique, as opposed to waterproofing. It involves installing a drainage system and sump pump inside your basement to collect and remove any water that makes it through. Interior waterproofing is less expensive than exterior waterproofing and can be completed in a shorter amount of time, but it does not provide the same level of protection as exterior waterproofing. Plus it requires maintenance of the waterproofing system - sump pump repair, sump pump maintenance, sump pit cleaning etc.
Both exterior and interior waterproofing have their benefits, and the best option for your home will depend on your specific needs and circumstances. If you're unsure which option is best for you, it's always a good idea to consult with a professional basement waterproofing contractor who can evaluate your home and recommend the best solution.
What Services are Included in Basement Waterproofing Welland
Basement Waterproofing can Include Some of the Following Services

Our waterproofers can help design the right basement waterproofing solution for your property based on the amount of ground water, the extent of the water damage, your objectives, and your budget. Here are a couple of services that are often included in basement waterproofing.
Exterior basement waterproofing is a method of preventing water from entering a basement by applying a waterproof coating or membrane to the outside of the foundation walls. This process involves excavating the soil around the foundation walls to expose the surface of the walls. Foundation cracks are repaired and waterproofing materials are applied. Weeping tiles (drainage) is installed and the trench is backfilled.
A sump pump installation is a process of installing a pump in a basement or crawlspace to remove any water that accumulates in the sump basin. A sump pump is typically installed in homes that are prone to flooding or have issues with excess groundwater.
The installation process involves digging a hole in the basement or crawlspace floor and placing a sump basin or pit in the hole. The sump basin collects any water that enters the basement or crawlspace and directs it to the sump pump. The sump pump then pumps the water out of the basement or crawlspace and away from the foundation of the home. We recommend getting regular sump pump maintenance and repairing the sump pump as soon as it breaks to help prevent basement floods.
Basement plumbing rough-ins are the initial plumbing installations that are done during the construction or renovation of a basement. These rough-ins are typically installed before the walls and flooring are finished, making it easier to access the pipes and fixtures.
Basement plumbing rough-ins typically include installing the pipes and drains for the basement's bathroom, laundry room, and any other plumbing fixtures.
Basement leak detection and repair is the process of identifying and fixing any leaks or water infiltration issues in a basement. Basements are prone to water damage and leaks due to their location below ground level, and these issues can cause serious damage to the structure of the building and the contents of the basement. If your see water on your basement walls or floors but are not sure where it's coming from, basement leak detection may help identify the source of the water leak. While basement leak repair service will help fix it.
Interior basement waterproofing is a method of preventing water from entering a basement by installing a drainage system and sump pump inside the basement. This process involves excavating a small trench around the perimeter of the basement floor, which is then filled with gravel and a perforated pipe. This pipe is connected to a sump pump, which collects and removes any water that enters the basement.
Crawlspace Encapsulation
Crawlspace encapsulation is the process of sealing the crawl space of a building with a vapor barrier to prevent moisture and other environmental elements from entering. The encapsulation process involves sealing the walls and floors of the crawl space with a heavy-duty plastic sheet or other barrier material, along with sealing any openings, such as vents or pipes.
Foundation repair refers to the process of repairing and stabilizing the foundation of a building that has been damaged or compromised. Foundation damage can be caused by a variety of factors, including soil movement, water damage, and poor construction practices.
Some common signs of foundation damage include cracks in the walls or floors, sloping or uneven floors, and doors or windows that are difficult to open or close.
The foundation repair process typically involves an inspection by a professional contractor to determine the cause and extent of the damage. Depending on the severity of the damage, the repair may involve simple cosmetic fixes, such as patching cracks, or more extensive structural repairs, such as underpinning or the installation of support beams.
Foundation crack repair is the process of fixing cracks in a home's foundation to prevent water from entering the basement or crawlspace. Cracks in a foundation can occur due to a variety of reasons, including settlement, poor construction, or changes in temperature and humidity.
Foundation crack repair typically involves filling the crack with an epoxy or polyurethane injection. This process seals the crack and prevents water from seeping into the basement or crawlspace. The epoxy or polyurethane injection material also helps to stabilize the foundation and prevent further cracking.
Basement underpinning is a method of strengthening and increasing the depth of a home's foundation. This process involves excavating the soil beneath the existing foundation and extending it downwards to create additional space or support. Watch our video on the basement underpinning process at Aquamaster.
Weeping tile, also known as drain tile or French drain, is a type of drainage system that is installed around the foundation of a building to prevent water from entering the basement or crawlspace.
A weeping tile system typically consists of a perforated pipe that is surrounded by gravel or crushed stone. The pipe is installed around the perimeter of the foundation, and any water that collects in the soil around the foundation is directed into the weeping tile and carried away from the foundation.

Basement Waterproofing Reviews
What Our Clients Say?

Stephanie G.
Residential Client
I used Aquamaster for two separate home waterproofing projects and I was extremely satasified with their work and price. Their team are highly skilled, thorough and were able to complete the 10.5 hour job in one day. They were even kind enough to seal my window frame after I noticed a minor leak. I would highly recommend Aquamaster for all your waterproofing and plumbing needs.
The Aquamaster team is absolutely fantastic! They went above and beyond to diagnose and correct the problem that I had with my basement plumbing caused by old pipes and persistent tree roots. I used them once in 2012 and in 2020. I cannot say enough good things about this team - Highly recommend.
