FOR HOMEOWNERS
Protect the basement without making the process complicated.
We listen to what happened, inspect the relevant plumbing and explain the practical options in plain language.
HOMEOWNER SERVICES
Start with the problem, not a product.
A wet basement can come from groundwater, sewer surcharge, damaged drains, surface water or more than one source. A useful assessment narrows the possibilities before work begins.

Backwater ValvesHelp protect private plumbing from sewer backup.

Sump PumpsMove groundwater away and plan for power outages.

Waterproofing SupportAddress cracks, drainage and foundation water entry.

Drain & Sewer HelpUse camera evidence to guide repair decisions.

Toronto Rebate HelpUnderstand eligible categories and documentation.
