INSTALLATION

Underpinning can be very dangerous if undertaken by amateurs, since it’s a tough, complicated process, with many stages. At Canada Waterproofers, our professional technicians are experienced, licensed, insured, and can first help steer you through getting the drawings done, as well as obtaining necessary permits from the city. We will then demolish the basement, and remove the existing concrete floor. We will shore up the existing foundation by putting up some temporary walls in the middle of the home. We will then take out the soil, replace the interior drains, install interior waterproofing, including a sump pump. We will dig out underneath, and re- pour a new foundation wall down to a new footing. A new concrete floor will be poured with a trowel finish. That formerly unusable space will soon be a welcoming, finished basement.
