Many homeowners in Toronto prefer interior waterproofing due to its accessibility, cost-efficiency, and reliability. Unlike exterior waterproofing, which needs extensive excavation, interior systems can be installed with minimal disruption to the landscape and daily life.

Here are a few reasons why interior waterproofing might be the right solution for your home:

• Space Limitations: If your home is close to a neighbouring property or access to the foundation’s exterior is restricted, interior waterproofing offers an effective alternative.
  

• Hydrostatic Pressure Relief: Water can seep into your basement through the floor or walls due to hydrostatic pressure. Internal drainage systems reduce this pressure and channel the water away efficiently.
  

• Cost-Effective: Compared to external excavation and repairs, interior waterproofing generally is a more cost effective basement waterproofing solution
  

• Quick Turnaround: The installation process is faster and usually completed within a few days, minimizing downtime and inconvenience.

Whether you’re planning to renovate your basement or want to prevent future water seepage, internal waterproofing provides peace of mind and a cost effective approach.

Interior waterproofing costs can vary depending on several factors, including the size of your basement, the severity of the water seepage, and the waterproofing solution. In Toronto, homeowners can expect to pay anywhere from $2,000 to $20,000 for complete interior waterproofing services.

Identifying the early signs of water seepage can save you thousands in repairs and prevent serious issues caused by a leaky basement

Here are some common warning signs that indicate you may need interior waterproofing:

• Persistent Odors: A lingering odor may indicate that there is water in your basement walls

• Visible Efflorescence: White, chalky powder looking efflorescence on basement walls are signs that there is water against your foundation.
  

• Water on basement walls: Water pooling from seepage through your basement walls indicate poor waterproofing and drainage.
• Wall cracks: Even small cracks can allow water to seep in, especially under pressure.

Addressing these issues early with a proper waterproofing system can protect your home from water seepage and improve your overall living environment.

Dryshield waterproofing contractors in Toronto are committed to helping you maintain a dry, safe, and comfortable home. From inspection to installation, we’re with you every step of the way.

Understanding the interior waterproofing process helps homeowners know what to expect. Our method is thorough, minimally invasive, and designed for long-term effectiveness. Here’s how we do it:

1. Inspection and Assessment

We start with a detailed inspection of your basement to identify the exact cause of why your basement is leaking. Using moisture meters and visual assessment, we pinpoint problem areas and recommend appropriate solutions.

2. Preparing the Basement Area

We clear the work area and protect your belongings before starting. This includes removing any obstacles in the way.

3. Foundation Drainage installation

A trench is dug along the perimeter of your basement walls. In this trench, we installed a weeping tile surrounded by gravel to channel water to a sump pump.

4. Sump Pump and Pit Installation

If not present, we install a sump pit and sump pump to collect and pump out the water. This system guarantees that any collected water is safely removed from your home.

5. Basement Wall Waterproofing

We attach a heavy-duty waterproof membrane along the interior walls covering the weeping tiles. It prevents further water seepage and channels the water into the drainage system.

6. Sealing Basement walls

After the system is installed, we seal the trench and clean up the work area. The result is a dry, safe, and fully protected basement.

This tried-and-true method ensures water is redirected away from your foundation and prevents the necessity of external waterproofing. The combination of effective foundation drainage and dependable sump pumps creates a permanent solution to basement water seepage. Other solutions that may be required when interior waterproofing is not an option include, exterior waterproofing from the outside, foundation crack repair and sump pumps. 

Internal Basement Waterproofing is one of the most effective ways to handle a leaky basement when outside access is not feasible. It’s a long-term investment that protects your home’s value. Whether you need a wet basement repaired or looking for preventative waterproofing our team has the experience and tools to make it happen.
