Solutions for Exterior Wet Basement in Toronto

PROFESSIONAL BASEMENT WATERPROOFING
Permanent Interior and Exterior solution
CALL US: 1-866-891-1917

Aquatech Waterproofing provides a full range of the best quality solutions for exterior wet basement services that are aimed to meet your specific requirements, and repair any water issues you face in your home. Exterior waterproofing is a permanent solution, which works on the outside off your building to stop any water from seeping through your foundation walls. This approach is greatly effective and takes care of your concerns because it ensures that water does not reach your home in the first place. Your home will be protected from basement water damage by using top quality waterproofing materials, which will be installed by experts from our team.

Every exterior waterproofing solution is different

Hydrostatic pressure can result in the structural damage of your home and can cause the entry of water into your property. Gaps and cracks in your walls and windows can also be entry points. Water affects different homes in different ways, depending on the environment and the foundations state.

Aquatech Waterproofing offers free consultation in which we will be able to evaluate your home’s condition and recommend the various solutions that are available. If we see that exterior waterproofing is the key solution for you, then we provide a full waterproofing service that will ensure the protection of the walls of your foundation including many other options that can restore your home to a dry, warm and comfortable state.

Exterior waterproofing procedure

The main exterior waterproofing solution that we provide is a waterproof jacket that is intended for your foundation. With the use of highly waterproof materials, we add extra layers of protection which will inhibit any water from getting into the exterior walls of your home. This is a permanent solution that will also maintain the structural integrity.

The procedure of exterior waterproofing involves the following:

Step 1:

We dig the area around your house all the way to the weeping tile pipe. The depth varies according to how elevated the building is, usually between 4 and 8 feet.

Step 2:

Next, we power blast and clean the wall. This exposes the brickwork or concrete that makes up your exterior wall. We then check for any structural cracks or gaps.

Step 3:

After the cracks are identified and the walls are exposed, we do the essential repairs to your foundations. Any defected areas are carved out and hydraulic cement is applied to any fissures. This expands and offers protection and restoration of your walls.

Step 4:

Next, aqua bloc is applied. This is a distinctive material that provides structural stability and is not so permeable. The stone is designed precisely to block the flow of water and adds a very effective layer of waterproofing to your house.

Step 5:

One layer of aqua bloc is usually not enough. We apply the yellow jacket which will firmly hold the material in place, and then another layer of aqua bloc is applied. This ensures dual protection such that no water ever reaches your exterior walls.

Step 6:

A platon membrane is applied as the final waterproof protection layer, and a complementary drainage system is installed. This ensures groundwater is directed away from your house thus reducing hydrostatic pressure, which ensures long term protection. This material relieves the pressure off the waterproof materials beneath and ensures the durability of the work. The drainage and platon membrane are then covered with a thick layer of gravel to make best use of the drainage.

Step 7:

The area is filled back to its original state and your garden is finally restored. Once we are done, you will never experience a damp problem ever again!

Other common exterior leak problems and solutions

For ultimate protection, your home may require additional services depending on the source of the leak or damp. Together with the provision of full waterproofing for the exterior walls of your foundations, at Aquatech we also use drainage systems and other procedures to ensure water does not come into your home in the first place. Some of the additional waterproofing services we provide include:

  • Window wells

    Water can collect in pools around basement windows and can seep through windowsills. In this case, Aquatech Waterproofing can install a new window well or modify it, which makes sure that rainwater falls beneath the windowsill and is then carried away from your house. Vertical weeping tiles can also be installed so as to waterproof the area that is exposed, and provide drainage and gravel so that your windows do not leak in the future.

  • French drains

    When water pushes against your house, structural problems and extra pressure may result, and when it collects in your yard, erosion results and your home will be in a mess. Having proper outdoor drainage systems is a very effective solution that makes sure ground and surface water is controlled and never left to gather in your compound or house. French drains are highly effective. These are drain pipe systems, which are modeled into your home. They are predominantly effective in homes that are surrounded by slopes thus accumulating more water.
  • Guttering systems

    Sometimes applying simple solutions can yield big results in your home. A broken guttering system that slopes and makes water pool in a certain area is very unattractive. Faulty gutters could sometimes be the source of dampness. At times, the solution is replacing your gutters or simply unblocking them. Aquatech Waterproofing can work to ensure your guttering systems are at their best and that water is kept away from your home.

    Whenever you have issues of basement leaks, you want to make sure you get the best solutions. While there may various way to deal with the problem, exterior waterproofing solutions can go a long way in preventing water from entering your basement.

HomeStars Client Reviews Average Rating 10

We just had Aqua Tech waterproofing our basement. The whole team is very professional and friendly. They take time to complete the job right. They also take time to explain the process to help you select the best option for your current problem. The work place is completely clean after they are done. We are so pleased with their work that we will get them to do further work for us.

Nick and his team were great, from start to finish the guys were a pleasure to deal with, they kept the job site clean at all times, and also were very careful and respected my property since the job involved digging a trench on the side of my basement to install weeping tiles. I’m very satisfied with the work and would definitely recommend Aqua Tech Waterproofing in the future.

I hired Aqua Tech to do a 30 feet of exterior waterproofing in my house, Andrew and his crew were simply the best, it was a pleasure dealing with this company, they worked within my budget and always cleaned up. I would definitely recommend this company to all my family and friends. Thank you guys once more and see you back in the spring to do the rest of my house.
