Interior Waterproofing
Internal waterproofing is one of the most cost-effective methods to prevent water infiltration. It works best in confined spaces that can’t be reached from the inside. The most notable advantage is that there’s far less construction and digging work involved in the process, since contractors can start from inside the house to apply waterproofing. Richmond Hill residents, homeowners, and businesses can often solve most, if not all, of their water leakage issues with efficient internal waterproofing. Most commonly, we will repair any internal cracks and leaks and install a water drainage system with a sump pump to push water out of the basement.
Exterior Waterproofing
While internal measures are usually straightforward and restricted, there are far more variables associated with external waterproofing. Richmond Hill houses can suffer from basement leaks and cracks, and one of the most reliable ways to address the issues and prevent further deterioration is to use external waterproofing. The most common external methods include adding drainage systems and applying waterproof coatings to the basement’s exterior to prevent water infiltration. Since water can enter through tiny cracks in the foundations, we will work to repair these cracks and fill them with suitable cement. Contact MT Drains and Plumbing if you notice any water leakage or pooling inside the basement or around the bottom floor.
French Drain Installation
French drains are trenches that are dug through the property to promote water redirection. Each trench will have a perforated pipe running along its length to collect water and direct it to a septic tank or a drainage area. French drains are effective at redirecting vast amounts of rainwater quickly and can prevent leakage during storms. A French drain can typically last for about ten years, but requires professional maintenance to prevent clogging, which can exacerbate problems rather than fix them. Contact MT Drains and Plumbing for French drain installations, inspections, and care to get the best waterproofing Richmond Hill deserves.
Weeping Tile Installation
A weeping tile is a sponge-like long pipe that allows water to seep through it. It’s usually made from corrugated plastic with holes small enough for only water to infiltrate. Weeping tiles can promote adequate water redirection in areas where other solutions are not suitable for the task. They are installed with the hole side up, alongside the basement floor. The water enters through the hole in the top and flows down to the bottom, with the pipe’s angle allowing for adequate drainage. MT Drains and Plumbing use high-quality corrugated weeping tiles and drain pipes during external waterproofing. Richmond Hill homeowners can contact us for additional information, estimates, or to schedule an inspection and installation.
Window Well Installation
Window wells are meant to protect basement windows from water. Since these windows typically lie at or below ground level, rainwater can quickly deteriorate them and eventually infiltrate into the basement or ground areas. Windows wells will stop water entering the house and prevent sediment impaction alongside the window glass. Additionally, water wells can provide better access to the window during everyday use and emergencies. Wells can come in various shapes and sizes, and our experts can work with you to provide a tailored solution that fixes any water leaks and looks attractive. Contact MT Drains and Plumbing for more information, estimates, and to schedule services.
Basement Crack Repair
One of the most common ways water enters the basement is through tiny cracks alongside the walls and the foundations. Over time, these cracks can seep through into the basement and present as a leak. While some cracks may only be cosmetic and won’t pose a significant threat, it’s preferable to fix all cracks as soon as possible to avoid future issues. Repairing cracks is the first step towards complete waterproofing. Richmond Hill homeowners can contact MT Drains and Plumbing for information on what services are necessary to remove cracks and other methods to prevent water infiltration.
