"I Would Recommend MT Drains For Waterproofing"
We had the pleasure of working with Pavel and his team of waterproofers. Our basement wall crack was causing a leak in the basement. Pavel came the same day to investigate the issue, the guys did an amazing job and it like there were never here. I would recommend Pavel for waterproofing and plumbing to everyone.

Interior vs. Exterior Waterproofing
If you are debating between adding exterior or interior basement waterproofing to your home, it’s better to consider a combination approach. By combining efforts on both sides of your walls and foundation, you have the best chance of keeping your home dry and mould-free.
Internal waterproofing involves covering the inside surfaces of your external walls with a water-resistant layer. The process is easiest in an unfinished basement, but still possible for most homes.
External basement waterproofing takes similar steps. First, we seal any cracks or breaks in the walls. Then, we create a waterproof barrier between the groundwater and your home.
Sump pumps, weeping tiles, and related methods of water removal work equally well inside and outside the home.

Basement Foundation Crack Repair Experts
Even well-maintained houses experience problems. Foundations tend to crack or damage after years of supporting your home in a damp, underground environment.
Our team will find and fix any cracks or problem areas as part of our basement leak repair services. Then, we will offer suggestions to protect your foundation from future repair issues.
Weeping tiles help to pull water away from your floor and prevent any pooling in the area, for example. Your foundation remains drier and less prone to cracking or breaking. It also prevents water seepage.

Benefits to Basement Waterproofing
Even if you don’t have cracks in your walls or pooling around your foundation, your home may still benefit from waterproofing the basement. The ground naturally holds water, so anything below the surface regularly sees moisture.
The dampness will seek through your walls and cause mould or mildew. It could also lead to long-term health issues for your family or break down the structures of your home if left unabated.
Keeping the moisture from entering your home saves money and convenience. You won’t have to repair or replace the damages that result from flooding or seepage.
Sump Pump Installation & Repair
Even the basement with the most solid construction and best waterproofing needs help to keep water outside where it belongs—it is where a sump pump comes in handy.
Sump pumps pull water out of one location and move it to another spot further away from your home. We can install these helpful devices outside around your house to prevent puddles or in areas that flood routinely.
The sump pumps are an ideal part of any comprehensive waterproofing plan. Based on your needs, we will either recommend a durable model with a long-lasting battery or a smaller version that’s great for more temporary jobs.
