Common Foundation Problems
Recognizing these issues early can save you from costly repairs and structural damage.
Foundation Cracks
Vertical, horizontal, or diagonal cracks in foundation walls or floors that can allow water infiltration and compromise structural integrity.
Settlement and Sinking
Uneven settling of the foundation causing sloped floors, sticking doors/windows, and cracks in walls and ceilings.
Water Damage
Moisture infiltration leading to mold growth, efflorescence, deteriorating concrete, and damage to interior finishes.
Bowing Walls
Inward movement of foundation walls due to excessive soil pressure, often worsened by freeze-thaw cycles and poor drainage.
Frost Heave
Upward swelling of soil during freezing conditions, causing foundation movement and damage, particularly common in Ontario's climate.

Our Foundation Repair Services
We offer comprehensive foundation solutions to address all types of foundation problems.
Crack Repair
We repair foundation cracks using advanced epoxy and polyurethane injection techniques that not only seal the crack but also restore structural integrity. Our methods address both active leaks and dormant cracks to prevent future water infiltration.
Basement Waterproofing
We install comprehensive waterproofing systems including interior and exterior drainage, sump pumps, vapor barriers, and waterproof membranes to keep your basement dry. Our solutions address the source of water problems, not just the symptoms.
Foundation Settlement Solutions
We stabilize and potentially lift settling foundations using proven methods such as underpinning, helical piers, and slab jacking. These techniques address the underlying soil issues causing settlement and provide permanent support to your foundation.
Structural Reinforcement
We strengthen compromised foundation walls using carbon fiber straps, steel braces, or wall anchors to prevent further bowing or movement. These reinforcement systems provide permanent support while being minimally invasive to your living space.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about foundation repair.
How do I know if I have foundation problems?
Common signs include cracks in walls or floors (especially diagonal cracks), doors and windows that stick or won't close properly, sloping or uneven floors, gaps between walls and ceilings, and visible cracks or shifting in the exterior foundation. If you notice any of these signs, it's best to have a professional assessment as soon as possible.
How much does foundation repair cost?
Foundation repair costs vary widely depending on the type and extent of damage, the repair methods required, and the size of your home. Simple crack repairs might cost a few hundred dollars, while major structural repairs could cost several thousand. We provide detailed, transparent estimates after a thorough inspection so you know exactly what to expect.
How long do foundation repairs take?
The timeline depends on the scope of work. Simple crack repairs can often be completed in a day, while more extensive repairs like underpinning or installing a complete waterproofing system might take 1-2 weeks. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your home and provide a specific timeline for your project during the estimation process.
Are foundation repairs covered by insurance?
Homeowner's insurance typically covers foundation damage caused by sudden events like bursting pipes or natural disasters, but usually not damage from normal settling, poor construction, or soil issues. We can provide detailed documentation of the damage and its causes to help with your insurance claim if applicable. Many homeowners find that the long-term value protection of foundation repair makes it a worthwhile investment regardless of insurance coverage.
