Foundation Repair

Basement Waterproofing
Get the right type of waterproofing your basement needs. We specialize in interior and exterior methods that are guaranteed to stop water from seeping in.
Foundation Piering
We stabilize sinking foundations by installing steel piers deep into stable soil or bedrock, transferring structural weight and preventing future settlement with strong, permanent support beneath your home.
Foundation Underpinning
Strengthening foundations that have settled or are being deepened for basement lowering projects.
Weeping Tile Replacement
Replacing old or clogged perimeter drain systems to redirect groundwater away from your foundation.
Pressure Grouting
We inject cement-like grout beneath your foundation under high pressure to fill soil voids, compact loose ground, and stabilize your home against movement or further structural shifting.
Bowing Wall Repairs
We stabilize and straighten bowing foundation walls by installing bracing or carbon fiber reinforcement, correcting structural pressure caused by soil shifts, moisture, or freeze-thaw cycles.
Cut-Off Wall Installation
By excavating around the foundation and installing a vertical waterproof barrier, our team blocks water intrusion, reduces hydrostatic pressure, and protects your structure from long-term moisture damage.

What Causes Foundation Damage?
There are several reasons why your foundation may get damaged: foundation settling, poor foundation construction, expanding and contracting soil, broken drainage systems, water accumulating around the foundation, and more. For effective foundation repair in Toronto, it’s essential to identify the specific cause of the damage to ensure a durable and lasting solution.
Signs That You Need Foundation Repairs
Over time, the problems described above lead to foundation damage – hairline wall & floor cracks, sticking windows and doors, deep foundation cracks and more. Make sure to speak with a Toronto foundation repair professional if you suspect the foundation of your home needs repairs. Here are a few examples of damaged foundation that we encounter most often:
Basement Wall & Floor Cracks
Look for cracks in the interior or exterior walls and even drywalls of your basement. The cracks can have different widths, from hairline to 1/8 of an inch and wider. Pay attention to diagonal cracks, stair-step cracks, or horizontal cracks, as they can indicate different types of foundation movement.
Uneven or Sloping Floors
If you notice that your floors are uneven or sloping, it could be a sign of foundation issues. This is particularly noticeable if you place a ball on the floor, and it rolls in a certain direction.
Sticking Doors & Windows
If your doors or windows suddenly become difficult to open or close, or if you notice gaps around them, it may be due to a shifting foundation. As the foundation moves, it can cause the frames to become misaligned.
Sagging or Bowing Walls
These are likely a result of foundation problems. This is a very serious issue that should be addressed promptly to prevent collapse.
Gaps Around Doors & Windows
Check for noticeable gaps or separations between the door or window frames and the walls of your Toronto home. These gaps can occur as the foundation settles or shifts, affecting the alignment of the openings.
Basement Moisture & Water Intrusion
A damp basement, wet basement walls & floors, mould growth, pooling water, and other signs can indicate foundation issues such as cracks that allow water to seep.
Chimney Issues
A leaning or tilting chimney can be an indication of foundation problems. If you notice that your chimney is separating from the house, leaning to one side, or has visible cracks, it’s important to talk to an expert.

What are the Benefits of Foundation Repairs?
Structural stability
The primary benefit of foundation repair is restoring the structural stability of your home or building. By addressing foundation issues promptly, you can prevent further damage and potential collapse. Repairing the foundation ensures that the entire structure is supported properly, reducing the risk of structural failure.
Improved Safety
A stable foundation promotes the safety of occupants and visitors. It minimizes the risk of accidents caused by sagging floors, collapsing walls, or other structural hazards. Foundation repair helps create a secure living or working environment by addressing potential safety risks.
Protection of Property Value
Your home or building in Toronto represents a significant investment, and maintaining its value is essential. Foundation problems can significantly decrease property value, making it difficult to sell in the future. By investing in foundation repairs, you preserve and potentially increase the value of your property, making it more attractive to potential buyers.
Prevention of Further Damage
Foundation issues tend to worsen over time if left unaddressed. Small cracks or shifts can lead to more significant problems, such as extensive structural damage, plumbing issues, or roof problems. Repairing the foundation early prevents these issues from escalating, saving you from costly repairs down the line.
Improved Energy Efficiency
Foundation problems can cause your Toronto home to become uneven, leading to gaps and misalignments in doors and windows. These gaps allow air leakage, making it difficult to maintain consistent indoor temperatures. By repairing your foundation, you can restore proper alignment, enhance insulation, and improve energy efficiency.
Peace of Mind
Dealing with foundation issues can be stressful for home and building owners in Toronto. The uncertainty about the safety and stability of your property can take a toll on you. Foundation repair provides reassurance and peace of mind, knowing that your property is secure and protected.
