Leaky Basement Repairs in Milton?
Basement leaks are not a new thing in Milton! While most homes don’t have proper waterproofing installed during their original construction, water can still damage and wreak havoc on unprotected foundations, causing structural damage, mold growth, and costly repairs. Usually, two major factors lead to leaks: standing outside water or cracks in the foundation wall. During heavy rain, water can seep through concrete basement walls if no rubberized membrane is applied. Hydrostatic pressure can also make your foundation walls more prone to cracking, so it’s necessary to have a proper defense to resist these forces. Whether you own a residential or commercial building in Milton, effective waterproofing measures are crucial for a long-standing structure.
With the right basement waterproofing company like GJ MacRae, you can safeguard your property and enjoy peace of mind, knowing that your investment is protected by the highest quality foundation repair and basement waterproofing repairs available in the GTA.

A century-old technology reborn! Our services also include interior and exterior weeping tile systems coupled with deep insights and experience relating to drainage. Ask us about the difference between interior and exterior drainage methods and enjoy the benefits of our extensive expertise.
Basement windows are a great natural light source and can act as a designated fire escape, but what happens when window wells deteriorate, clog, and leak? Our hand-excavated exterior window well repair solutions are permanent and allow for guaranteed unimpeded drainage all year long.
Sump pumps and sump basins are integral to all below-grade drainage strategies due to their simplicity, reliability, low cost, and proven effectiveness. Ensure your sump pump, basin, and battery backup system are well maintained and ready for the next significant rain or thaw.
We also specialize in structural foundation shoring, concrete footing and replacement, concrete foundation wall reinforcement and replacement, structural underpinning installations, and all phases of below-grade concrete foundation repair, reinforcement, and rebuilding.
Are your foundation walls spalling, eroding, or fragmenting? Is this damage accelerating through the years? Stopping moisture penetration through your above-grade concrete structure is imperative. We offer brush parging, s-type, adhesive, mesh, fiber, and thermal-slurry solutions for a lasting barrier.
GJ MacRae pioneered the overflow underpinning method in the Greater Toronto Area. Our underpinning process allows for safe, reliable vertical increases in basement ceiling height that can turn crawl spaces into full living quarters for less cost than a standard second-story addition!
When your foundation walls begin to show signs of cracking or bowing, it’s generally an indication of severe exterior lateral pressure from roots, hydrostatics, or poorly draining soil. Click below to learn more about our complete carbon fiber foundation reinforcement applications.
The GJ MacRae Solution
Our Milton Basement Waterproofing Process
01
Firstly, we start by inspecting your basement to identify the source and extent of water infiltration. This includes checking for cracks, leaks, and signs of moisture.
02
In some cases where water is entering through the foundation walls, external excavation may be necessary. We dig around the perimeter of the basement to expose the foundation walls for further inspection and repair.
03
We then repair any cracks, gaps, or damaged areas in the foundation walls using appropriate materials such as hydraulic cement and rubberized membranes. This helps to ensure a solid foundation and prevent future water penetration.
04
Once we finish the foundation repair, an interior drainage system may also be required. The most common inside waterproofing repair is installing interior weeping tile below the basement concrete floor. This system collects water that enters the basement and directs it to a floor drain or sump pump.
05
It may be time to install a sump pump! A sump pit collects water from the interior drainage system. It pumps it away from the foundation wall with a pump, preventing water buildup below the concrete floor and relieving hydrostatic pressure.
06
The inside basement walls may be treated with an interior waterproofing membrane installation that creates a barrier against moisture. This helps to stop water from seeping through the walls and causing damage.
07
If necessary, an interior drainage channel may be installed along the base of the basement walls. This channel collects any water that seeps through the walls and directs it toward the interior drainage system.
08
For added protection, an exterior waterproofing membrane or coating can also be applied to the foundation walls. This helps to prevent water infiltration from the outside, providing a comprehensive waterproofing solution.
