🚨 Foundation Flooding Emergency? Get Emergency Help - Average response time: 45 minutes to all local neighborhoods
The Area's Trusted Foundation Water Protection Experts
As the region's premier moisture control contractor, DrySpace has protected over 500 homes across all neighborhoods from Port Credit to Malton. We understand the region's unique challenges: Credit Valley clay soil that expands up to 70%, variable water tables from Lake Ontario and Credit River influences, and the rapid suburban development that has created diverse structural challenges across different eras of construction.
Why Local Properties Need Specialized Water Management
The Region's Unique Geological Challenges:
- • Credit Valley Clay: 30-70% clay content causes extreme expansion/contraction
- • Variable Water Table: 1-4m depth fluctuates seasonally, highest near water bodies
- • Engineered Fill: Many subdivisions built on former farmland with imported soil
- • Lake Effect: Increased moisture and freeze-thaw cycles near Lake Ontario
- • Urban Heat Island: Rapid snow melt creates sudden water infiltration
- • Stormwater Management: Older neighborhoods lack modern drainage infrastructure
