Stone and block foundation repair in the Glebe and Ottawa South
Homes near the canal and the Rideau River are often a century old, on rubble stone or early block foundations. Resin injection does not work on these walls.
Repointing, parging and exterior membranes are the usual repairs, done carefully on narrow lots with neighbours close by.
All services
Crack injection (epoxy and polyurethane)
Seal a leaking or hairline foundation crack from inside, usually in half a day, with no digging.
Exterior waterproofing and membrane
Excavate to the footing, repair and seal the wall, and install a membrane and new weeping tile.
Interior drainage and sump pit
An interior perimeter drain that collects water at the footing and sends it to a sump pump.
Structural crack assessment
A look at cracks that are wide, stepped, horizontal or growing, and a clear next step.
Weeping tile replacement
Replacing the collapsed, silted or root-blocked footing drain that was supposed to be carrying groundwater away from your foundation.
Parging and foundation surface repair
Repairing and recoating the exposed skim of mortar on the outside of your foundation, which protects the wall and tells you honestly how the concrete beneath is doing.
