Commercial Waterproofing Experience
Toronto is a mix of historic buildings and new builds; however, both are susceptible to a catastrophic leak. Historic buildings in the core are especially at risk due to poor waterproofing technology. Waterproofing measures in the 1800s and at the turn of the 19th usually consisted of tar and no Bituthene membrane, which can wreak havoc on the structural integrity of the building over time if it has suffered numerous leaks. An exterior waterproofing solution, consisting of an excavation, and the installation of a Bituthene membrane and a weeping tile is the proven solution to preserving your commercial property as well preserve its value if you sell in the future. This is because real estate agents can identify past water damage and potential buyers will shy away, potentially forcing you to sell under your listing because the property will be seen as a liability.​
