Wet Basement Repairs

Over the years, we have spent a lot of time trying to understand how water enters basements and how to prevent them from leaking again. We have tried various methods and with years of trials and tribulations, we have taken the best out of each method and combined them into one great method we call “Our Guaranteed Method”.

This method is known as the guaranteed method, because you will never again have a basement flood. Our method is the ultimate waterproofing for basements! This allows you to address all of your problems at once. Although some contractors will only recommend that repairs be made from the inside, we strongly advocate exterior basement waterproofing.

Exterior methods are used to repair foundation cracks and change weeping tiles. Tremco waterproofing, Blueskin membrane, Tremco waterproofing, Tremco waterproofing, Tremco waterproofing, Tremco waterproofing, Tremco waterproofing, and Delta membrane will also be used. Once you have applied the correct foundation waterproofing and imported new backfill (if required) you can then adjust the entire landscaping so that water runs away from your house.

This is also a great opportunity to repair the foundation’s gating! With a new weeping tile in place, I can assure you that you will be getting a lot more water in your sump pump system so make sure your sump pump is operating properly and consider the installation of either a battery backup sump pump or a water backup sump pump in the event the main pump fails or the power goes out.

Septic Systems

This industry has been a passion of mine for a long time. I like the science behind wastewater treatment and it also ties in nicely with my wet basement philosophies in the sense that you have to understand water and how it behaves in order to effectively get rid of it.

Over the years we have come to understand all the various types of septic systems in use, from the common trench bed systems and filter bed systems to the more advanced tertiary systems such as Ecoflo, Bionest, EnviroSeptic and Eljen and for the most sensitive areas, we’ll design Phosphorus removal septic systems.

Understanding all these systems will allow us to service them efficiently and give us more options for designing a system that suits your environment.

We are experts in system design.

We offer septic system installation and repairs as well as septic system design and repair. We can install either concrete or plastic septic tanks if you require a new one. While I strongly recommend installing concrete tanks sometimes the situation requires a plastic tank and when it does, we use the industry’s toughest tanks, Roth!

These bullet proof tanks are manufactured by Roth Global Plastics which in my opinion are the toughest tank you will find. We can provide you with the drain field (also known as septic bed, or leaching field) that you require.

Our installations are always installed according to the Ontario Building Code and often we surpass their requirements. We understand what it takes to install a system that will last many many years and the big reason for this is because we’ve inspected many systems over the years and we’ve seen a pattern of mistakes that installers or homeowners are making.

Many installs have failed to follow the installation guidelines which have resulted in immediate system failure or premature failure of a very expensive investment! Underground Solutions can help you with all your septic system problems!
