Waterproofing & Foundation Repair 
to Protect Your Home

Without proper basement waterproofing, excess water in the soil around your foundation can cause the foundation to develop cracks. With Canada’s weather cycles, water can seep into the cracks, freezing and thawing alternately, forcing the cracks wider and allowing even more water to enter.

AtlasCare specializes in interior waterproofing solutions to keep your basement dry and protected. Our strategies include:

Foundation Crack Repair

Small cracks can quickly grow into major structural issues. Our team will start waterproofing your basement by locating all the cracks in your foundation and sealing them with epoxy injections and polyurethane sealants. This will prevent further water incursion.

Interior Drainage Systems

Even without cracks, water may still get into your home. Common entry points like pipe openings and basement windows are not the only culprits: high hydrostatic pressure caused by rain and snow can force water through the concrete itself. If water collects along your basement floor, we can install an interior drainage system to redirect it and keep your basement dry.

Waterproofing Coatings & Sealants

For an additional layer of defence, we can apply waterproof membranes, vapour barriers, and sealants to basement walls. These techniques block moisture and help prevent mould growth, ensuring long-term protection.

Protect your basement from leaks before they become major issues! Call AtlasCare today for expert waterproofing and foundation repair.
