Basement Leak Repair in Delta, BC

When water enters at one identifiable point — a vertical crack, a form-tie hole, a window well, or a service penetration — a targeted repair is far cheaper than a full waterproofing job. Low-lying Ladner and Tsawwassen properties sit close to the water table, making perimeter drainage, excavation and pump systems essential for dry basements and crawl spaces.

Crack injection

Polyurethane injection expands to fill the full depth of an active leaking crack; epoxy is used where structural bonding is required.

Window wells and penetrations

Adding a well drain tied into the perimeter system, or re-sealing conduit and pipe penetrations, resolves many isolated leaks.

When to escalate

Leaks appearing in multiple locations, or water rising through the slab-wall joint, point to a drainage problem rather than a sealing problem.
