Drain Excavation Replacement Toronto

While we specialize in trenchless drain services wherever possible, it is not always practical. Roots in drains, mud, iron ocher and other deposits can obstruct your drains, and sometimes, the ground shifts. Sometimes, drains are badly damaged and improperly installed. This often causes a significant amount of moisture in the basement, which leads to mold (which poses health risks) and water infiltrations in your foundation, which causes cracks in the concrete.

When we find that the entire drainage system needs to be removed, that’s where our drain excavation replacement services come in handy. Our drain engineer will assess your situation and if he finds it necessary to excavate and you approve the estimate given, we may be able to start working on your project right away.

Drain Excavation Replacement Process

Firstly, we will verify regulations concerning water treatment and the connection of the drainage system to the municipal sewer. We have to temporarily have to remove obstacles that may interfere with our ability to maneuver machinery. We will only excavate were necessary to avoid causing too much inconvenience and restoration work and cost.

Once we have exposed the offending section of your drainage system, we will install the replacement drains according to the latest City standards. It is important to note that only the City of Toronto licensed plumbers should attempt this complex process. The drains are connected to a vertical section to allow for simple future drain cleaning and inspection that doesn’t require further excavation.

With the connections made and tested, we will backfill the base of the excavation with a geotextile membrane and crushed stone. We will then verify that there are no cracks in the foundation walls. If we find any cracks, we will apply a specially formulated waterproofing membrane, or create vertical drainage on the foundation walls before completing the final backfilling.
