Interior Waterproofing & Basement Sealing Services in Torontoe

Your basement may be showing signs of water intrusion if it feels humid, produces a musky/moldy smell, or visible moisture spots. These signs are more common in spring and fall as rain water and snow runoff create water pools underneath and surrounding your home. Under the right conditions, the water pools build up pressure and permeate concrete, sometimes causing cracks or visible moisture spots.

Interior Waterproofing – Protect Your Home from Water Damage

The good news is that these leaks can be prevented with a Basement Waterproofing System. The membrane is usually installed on the exterior of the foundation but can also be applied on the inside of the basement. There are also additional measures that can be taken to foolproof the basement by creating underground channels for water runoff.

Key Services Offered

Interior Waterproofing and Crawl Space Waterproofing

While many contractors start outside and deal with the exterior, at Canadian Rooter we also specialize in interior and crawl space waterproofing. This allows us to work from the inside of your home with much less excavation and heavy work, while still providing long-lasting protection from leaks and damp.

Foundation Crack Repair and Under-Slab Drainage

We address cracks in the foundation by sealing them properly and, if necessary, implementing under-slab drainage solutions. This prevents water from seeping through the walls or floors of your basement, protecting your home for the long term.

Sump Pump Installation and Vapor Barriers

Sump pumps remove water that collects beneath your basement floor, while vapor barriers keep moisture from entering your living space. Both methods are crucial to maintaining a dry and mold-free environment.

Protecting Property Value through Interior Waterproofing

In Toronto, interior waterproofing is vital because of the changing weather. Proper moisture control protects your foundation, stops basement flooding, and keeps property values high. By preventing water intrusion and potential mold growth, you preserve the structural integrity of your home. A well-maintained and dry basement also appeals to prospective buyers, enhancing resale value and boosting overall market appeal.

Recent Reviews

We had hired Naz in the past for instalment of a sump pump, cleaning drains after sewer backup and such, and were always impressed by the quick response time and professionalism. This Spring we finally had some waterproofing done around the house; something Naz had suggested years ago. Once again, the crew was very fast, and showed excellent workmanship.

Throughout the work to deal with waterproofing a basement wall, digging a channel under the basement floor to a newly installed sump pump, putting in a backflow valve we were impressed with the diligence and efficiency with which the work was done. The attention to leaving the basement well "cleaned up" was impressive. Knowledgeable and timely advice was always available. Canadian Rooter is now our "go to" plumber.

I had called in Canadian Rooter to replace my lead pipe water service with a 3/4" service. Naz and his crew did the job efficiently and professionally in less than a day. But when they went into the basement where they had to dig below the foundation they discovered mold under the rug and all along one side of the basement. The mold was also behind the baseboard and climbing up the studs behind the drywall. (My tenants had been too 'considerate' to tell me about the problem.) The easiest solution was to strip out the drywall and framing, cover the area with a waterproofing barrier that extended into a trench dug along the wall, and put weeping tile in the trench that drained into a sump pump. Naz was sympathetic to my plight and was able to start the work within 2 days and to got it all professionally done and cemented back in within another two more days. And he didn't take advantage of my desperation to get it done quickly by changing me a high price. The $6500 charge was very fair considering the scope of the work.

I highly recommend Canadian Rooter as my experience with them was excellent. It was urgent that I find a professional company to repair a leak in my basement and they reached out immediately after I posted my needs @ Home Stars. They sent a technician to my home within 2 hours. From the customer service (Anna) to their very experienced and knowledgeable technicians... everything was done quickly and precise. I felt really comfortable dealing with them... They are honest and the amount charged was fair. They did a great job. I'm really happy with the outcome. Thanks Canadian Rooter for your hard work and dedication.
