Water Proofing

Many homeowners complain of leaky basement walls. It is a fairly common issue in Toronto, a city of harsh winter season. You have to deal with a lot of snow that melts, and the water vapor settles in the basement walls. Also, with increased rainfall, there is more moisture in the air that affects the basement walls.
Basements are susceptible to water leaks and flooding because of a phenomenon called hydrostatic pressure. This pressure refers to water flowing under the force of gravity. Being at the sub-ground level, basements are naturally prone to this impact. Water builds against the foundation wall and eventually pours through eroding concrete. Furthermore, heavy showers and snow-melt cause the water table to rise and put more pressure on the basement.
We offer experienced waterproofing services attending to both the interior and exterior walls of the basement. Also, we suggest preventive methods of waterproofing. For instance, strategic construction of retaining walls ensures that the water is redirected away from the basement foundation. Sometimes, the construction of a French drain may also be needed.
Proper landscaping is also a vital aspect of preventive waterproofing, and you can follow our recommendations on the same. Usually, exterior waterproofing serves the purpose, but if it is too severe, we also undertake interior waterproofing. Your waterproofing requirements will be evident only after an on-site inspection. Call us now, and we will provide a reasonable quote for the retaining wall services.

Retaining Walls

Retaining walls serve the dual functions of stabilizing the landscape and adding aesthetic value. These are powerful walls constructed at the end of a slope to hold back soil load on one side and are freestanding on the other end. These walls are of different types, but the common aspect is providing heavy-duty ground support.
Materials used for retaining wall construction range from concrete to stone. Sometimes, the wall is reinforced with steel bars when the weight of the load is too heavy. These walls also have significant aesthetic value, especially when they are placed in layers. They are integral to backyard landscaping. These walls lend a strong, classic look to the landscape besides being ideal to offer a gardening space.
A gravity wall is the type where it depends on its sheer weight to retain the soil load. They are often mortarless, consisting of heavy slabs stacked upon one another. The slightly sloping retaining walls render an organic view of the garden. They may look like remnants of an excavated architectural site or the guard line of a fortress. These are imperative when you have a wavy landscape.

Concrete is the ideal material for pools because it is extremely durable and customizable. You can prefer to have a pool in any shape, design, and layouts.
We follow a proven step-by-step construction process. Our job starts with excavation, and we usually dig a hole at least three feet bigger than the perimeter. Then, we add steel rebars for reinforcement to prevent structural failure risks with the pool. After the plumbing lines have been fixed, we proceed by spraying concrete with a nozzle. We also shape the concrete using straight edges and trowels at this stage. We will place plastic sheets to avoid overspray.
Once this concrete shell is made, we finish the pool using a plaster coating. Staining is one of the main issues of using concrete in a pool, especially at the waterline. Therefore, we recommend placing tiles after the curing period of concrete is over. The costs of setting up a pool vary as per your unique requirements.

Concrete merely needs two to three washes every year to keep looking new. Unlike wood or brick, concrete is a stable material that does not expand or contract due to weather changes. It is a cost-effective and durable option requiring polish work once every two years to stay in shape.

Driveways

Do you think your concrete driveway needs repairing? Driveways have to undertake the constant duress of tire traffic. Hence, they are susceptible to damage over time. We handle all kinds of concrete works, including new driveways and mending cracked structures.
Stamped concrete is extremely versatile and can replicate the appearance of wood, stone, or slate. As for repair work, overlaying is the general option. Concrete can develop cracks or show signs of flaking with aging. An overlay is placed depending on the extent of the damage. It can be a thin overlay for minor damages. With longer cracks, an overlay a few inches thick may be necessary.
Before placing the overlay layer, we may have to inject the cracked zones with epoxy. However, we recommend removing and replacing all of it with badly damaged concrete. Contact us when you need to polish your discolored concrete. Polishing work imparts a high-gloss finish to the driveway, rendering it elegant and welcoming. Sometimes, a sealant is placed on the concrete to save costs by eliminating the need to place a top coat.

Contact us for your preferred visual choice, and we will turn it into a reality.
Concrete is one of the most durable substances in construction work and requires minimum maintenance over the years. The material can withstand heavy traffic and the harsh Canadian winters. Maintenance priorities include washing it only three times each year. Also, we undertake resealing of stamped concrete every two years to retain its shine.
Laying stamped concrete requires special expertise, and our professionals can handle the job extremely well. We have the specific tools and skills necessary to complete a fabulous job quickly!

Brickwork and stones

We are a specialist service in Greater Toronto Area, experts in brick replacement and pillar rebuild. We are also proficient in door and window resizing and refacing of exterior walls.
Often, it is a challenge to find the bricks matching the rest of the wall of your old Victorian-style house. We often attend calls from Victorian neighborhoods such as Parkdale, Rosedale, The Annex, Cabbagetown, and Trinity-Bellwoods. Chimneys are particularly susceptible to brickwork damage. We have successfully undertaken several chimney restoration projects in the GTA. Chimney repair work involves the replacement of chimney caps and tuck pointing. Sometimes, we may have to rebuild the entire chimney.
We also specialize in stonework. We have a good knowledge on various types of natural stone, and can suggest the best options for your home. Working with stone is highly skilled expertise because we would have to shape individual stone blocks to fit with each other. Even a slightly more pressure during chiseling can render the stone block unusable.
Our efficiency covers all types of natural stones. Stones respond differently to pressure depending on their types. The pressure on sandstone, granite, marble, and slate has to be different! Our expertise ensures that the perfect finish is obtained.
