Both have advantages. Interior systems manage water efficiently and are less invasive/expensive. Exterior waterproofing provides the ultimate protection by stopping water before it reaches walls. We often recommend a combination approach for complete protection.

A French drain is a perforated pipe installed around your foundation's perimeter to collect and redirect water. It's surrounded by gravel, connects to a sump pump, and effectively manages groundwater. Essential for Toronto's high water table areas.

Weeping tile is the older term for foundation drainage (originally clay tiles). French drains are the modern version using perforated PVC pipe. Both serve the same purpose - managing water around your foundation. We install modern French drain systems.

Sump pumps are essential if you have: high water table, history of flooding, below-grade living space, or interior drainage system. We recommend battery backup systems for power outages - crucial during storms when you need them most.

Underpinning strengthens and stabilizes foundations by extending them deeper. It's needed for basement lowering, foundation settlement repair, or adding basement apartments. We're certified for all underpinning methods.

Yes, we repair all types of foundation cracks using epoxy injection, polyurethane injection, or exterior excavation depending on crack type and severity. We identify the cause to prevent recurrence.

Clear 3-4 feet from basement walls, move stored items to center, remove wall hangings, and ensure access to electrical panel. For exterior work, we'll need 10-12 feet clearance around foundation. We'll help with heavy items.
