Industry-proven warranty on all basement foundation repairs

Since 1970, we have guaranteed our clients the assurance that our foundation repairs will be done right, the first time. Included in all our foundation waterproofing repairs is a Lifetime warranty. Throughout the years we’ve noticed a few smaller companies operating that claim they offer 25+ year or lifetime warranties but when it comes time for action the homeowner is often left in the dust, simply because the company has only been in business a few years or less.

Upon our in-person inspection and assessment of your home or building, we will include our warranty in our written contract.

Homeowner Transferable Foundation Repair Warranty

If you decide to sell down the road, our foundation repair warranties are homeowner-transferable. Speak with one of our foundation repair project estimators directly to find out more about our warranty guarantee.

Foundation crack injection repairs (Interior Epoxy Injections) are temporary

Interior foundation repair methods of Foundation Crack Injection, like epoxy injections, or urethane resigns are simply a bandage-like solution to most foundation leakage issues. In our 46 years of experience, If the repair of a foundation crack is not completely sealed to the exterior wall, moisture will have the ability to enter the cracks from the exterior as time passes and the cracks widen. The foundation wall is also left exposed to Alberta’s intense freeze/thaw cycles, severely widening these cracks over time, leading to severe deterioration of your foundation wall months or years down the road.

Not only can the problem worsen if not corrected from the exterior side of the foundation wall, but underlying drainage issues that led to your foundation leakage are left undiagnosed and untreated. Instead, the wall is temporarily sealed from the interior and the underlying drainage problems have the ability to create even larger structural issues down the road.

Exterior Foundation Repairs and Basement Waterproofing Isn’t Always More Expensive Then Interior (Crack Injection) Repairs

Although interior foundation crack injection repairs may at first glance seem cheaper and faster to complete, we run into a lot of clients looking for repairs after they visit crack injection specialists and end up paying almost exactly the same price for complete exterior repairs. In addition, interior crack injection methods don’t have the ability to correct the issue where initial contact of the elements and moisture is present. Ultimately, speaking with a foundation expert about your foundation concerns is always the safest decision to ensure your investment receives the appropriate inspection and course of action to permanently seal out basement leakage.

Thank You again for the wonderful service! I have been so impressed with everything you have done, from the promptness of Randy for the estimate (including the phone call to say he would be five minutes late), to how quickly the work was done. Cleanup was marvelous, the flowerbed looks better now than it did before. I will certainly recommend you to anyone I know that needs foundation work done.

Four Reasons Why Your Basement’s Foundation Will Leak Water In Its Lifetime (Basement Leakage & Flooding)

• As ground soil becomes saturated the water table begins to rise around your foundation, putting pressure against
  the basement floor and wall which can lead to cracking and deterioration. Water then seeks cracks which are caused by expansion and contraction of the concrete due to the freeze/thaw cycles of Alberta’s winters.
• Weeping tile drainage along the footing of your foundation becomes clogged over time, forcing water to seek the path of least resistance, which is usually under your foundation’s footing. The water then seeks cracks in your basement floor or moves over the footing entering the basement at the joint where your floor meets the foundation wall.
• Under normal new-home construction, the footing is poured separately from the foundation wall. The foundation wall is then constructed upon the footer. Since it is impossible to get a perfect seal between the footing and the foundation wall, any moisture or water can enter the basement through these gaps.
• Due to the expansion and contraction of cement blocks, the original foundation waterproofing, which has little to no elasticity, forms foundation cracks with extreme temperature changes. This allows water to enter through these foundation cracks and in the mortar joints filling the bottom courses of blocks with water.
