What We Do
Waterproofing and foundation repair, done properly
Every basement is a little different. After we've seen yours, we'll tell you straight which of these fixes it actually needs, no upselling.
Exterior Waterproofing
The thorough fix. We dig down to the footing, clean the wall, and seal it from the outside with a proper membrane so water stops before it ever reaches your basement.

When digging outside isn't realistic, we manage the water from inside. Drainage channels, a sump pump and a vapour barrier to move water where it belongs and keep the floor dry.

A crack is an open door for water, and it tends to widen with every hard Ontario winter. We seal and reinforce it so it stays shut and your basement stays dry through the seasons.

For the right cracks, we fill them from inside with low-pressure polyurethane or epoxy. It pushes through the full thickness of the wall for a clean, lasting seal. No excavation, no torn-up yard.

Questions
Foundation waterproofing FAQ
The stuff Paris and SW Ontario homeowners ask us most. If your question isn't here, just call — or read our full Ontario waterproofing cost guide.
What's the difference between exterior and interior waterproofing?
Exterior is the more thorough fix. We dig down along the foundation and apply a membrane to stop water before it reaches the wall. Interior works the other way: it manages water that's already getting in, using drainage and a sump pump, and it's the right call when we can't dig outside. After we've seen your place, we'll tell you which one actually makes sense.
How do I know if my basement needs waterproofing?
Watch for damp or musty smells, white efflorescence on the walls, peeling paint, foundation cracks, water pooling after rain, or visible mould. Spot any of those and it's worth booking a free on-site inspection so we can pin down the cause before it gets worse.
Can you fix foundation cracks without digging up my yard?
Often, yes. A lot of cracks can be sealed from inside with low-pressure polyurethane or epoxy injection that fills the full thickness of the wall, no excavation needed. We'll look at the crack and what's causing it, then recommend the method that'll actually hold.
Do you offer free quotes?
Always, and there's no obligation. We assess the foundation, moisture and grading on site, then give you honest written pricing. No pressure to book on the spot.
Are you insured, and is the work warrantied?
Yes on both. On Point Masonry and Waterproofing is Fully Insured and WSIB-Compliant, and every waterproofing repair comes with a written warranty.
