Common Basement Issues We See in Tottenham

If so your basement is in need of waterproofing to restore your foundation and prove the living quality of your basement.

  • Water entering after rain or thaw cycles

How We Approach Basement Waterproofing

Every basement leak has a cause. Before recommending any work, we focus on diagnosis.
Our inspections determine:

  • Where water is actually entering the foundation

  • Whether the issue is isolated or part of a larger drainage problem

  • If an interior solution is appropriate or if exterior waterproofing is required

  • Whether cracks are structural or surface-level

You get clear answers and a defined solution — not guesswork or upselling.

Waterproofing Options (When Each Makes Sense)

Interior Waterproofing

Used when water enters at the floor–wall joint or when exterior access is limited. Interior systems manage water safely and relieve pressure but do not stop exterior moisture from reaching the foundation.

Exterior Waterproofing

Recommended when water is penetrating through foundation walls or recurring cracks. Exterior waterproofing stops water before it enters and is often the most permanent solution.
In some cases, a hybrid approach delivers the best result. We explain why before any work begins.

Foundation Crack Repair

Recurring cracks are one of the most common causes of basement leaks in Tottenham homes.
We repair foundation cracks using professional methods such as:

  • Urethane or epoxy injection

  • Exterior membrane repairs

  • Full excavation when required

Crack repairs are designed to stop water entry — not just seal the surface.

Amazing service
Ken J.
Our upstairs toilet was not working properly. I called MT Drains & Plumbing and Rene came the same day. He checked out the toilet and found it was not working properly due to age and deterioration of the jets. I asked him if he could supply a replacement toilet. Rene ordered a new toilet and installed it first thing next morning. The new one is working better than the old one ever did. Rene was pleasant to deal with and knew what he was doing. We will use MT Drains in the future.

MT Drains were great. Pavel is very knowledgeable and the crew were amazing. They were very dependable and never stopped working. Despite the job being difficult the crew worked through all the challenges and kept us informed along the way. We appreciated The brother’s hard work and commitment to getting the job done. A 25 year warranty on their work speaks to their commitment to a job well done.

Ofcourse my drain was clogged on a Friday after 5pm. Rene, from MT Drains, came to our rescue with a great attitude. He took about an hour and a half to clear our drain while giving us pointers as to what not to do. Thank you Rene! I recommend your services to any one who needs a good plumber.
Maurizio C.
Excellent service from start to finish. Rene the plumber arrived early, was professional, courteous, and quickly diagnosed the issue with our clogged pipes. He explained the process clearly and used the snake equipment efficiently to clear everything out without any mess or damage. What really stood out was his honesty, attention to detail, clenliness and his willingness to answer questions. The drains are now working perfectly, and the whole experience was stress-free. I would definitely recommend Rene and this company to anyone needing plumbing services and wouldn’t hesitate to call them again in the future.
