Basement Waterproofing Toronto

Basement flooding is one of the most common plumbing issues in Toronto homes, particularly when summer storms cause storm drains to back up. However, it doesn't take a torrential rainstorm for a basement to flood. It may also be caused by the structure of the home, problems with the foundation, or issues relating to plumbing. No matter what the issue, it is important for you to keep an eye out for signs of foundation or water damage, and to have it seen to before it becomes a major issue.

Toronto homes often have wet basements, and basement waterproofing plumbers offer the ideal solution to keep your basement dry, thus protecting your investment and retaining the value of your property. Excessive moisture is the perfect breeding ground for fungus, mold and mildew, which pose serious health hazards.

During heavy rains, water seeps into micro-cracks in your home’s foundations. As the water freezes during winter, it expands, thus creating a wider separation. As the ice melts, the water seeps into your walls, ceilings and elsewhere in your home.

Weeping tiles are porous pipes used in underground drainage systems. Usually made of plastic, weeping tiles have narrow, lengthwise slits, and rocks are placed around the weeping tiles to prevent excessive soil or dirt from entering the slits. The weeping tile is located near the perimeter of the foundation, and leads to storm sewers or to sump pumps.

At times, sand and dirt cause the slits in the weeping tiles to become blocked, causing the pipes to shift. When that happens, grey water might enter the basement due to low pressure, causing basement flooding and a range of other issues.

Symptoms of Basement Water Damage

There are many signs that indicate water damage in your basement and crawlspace, some of which include:

Wet Walls – Bad sloping, foundation issues and leaking pipes are all reasons for wet walls in your basement or crawlspace, and it should be seen to before it can cause more damage.

Mold – Mold grows in moist areas and can be lethal to your family and pets. It should be dealt with immediately. Anta Plumbing will remove the mold and identify whether a possible plumbing leak is to blame for the moisture. We will remedy the situation quickly and efficiently.

Chalk-like Deposits – Most noticeable on concrete walls, efflorescence is a salt deposit that is left behind when water runs through brick or concrete. While this deposit is not a hazard, it is a symptom of water moving through walls and should be looked at in order to diagnose, repair and avoid potential structural issues.

Peeling Paint & Ceiling Stains
– If your finished basement shows signs of paint peeling or strange stains on the ceiling, it means that there’s water leaking.

Increased Water Bill – A fantastic indicator of increased water use, an exorbitant water bill is usually a sign of a leaking pipe somewhere.

Other symptoms may include:

  • Warped paneling
  • Dry rot
  • Buckling walls
  • Dampness
