Block and brick foundations are common features in older homes, but they are particularly vulnerable to water infiltration. Over time, moisture can penetrate the porous material, leading to cracking, structural weakening, and even basement flooding. If not addressed quickly, this water damage can cause mould growth, deterioration of the foundation, and costly repairs. The solution lies in effective waterproofing, which ensures that your block and brick foundation remains dry and structurally sound, protecting your home from long-term water damage.
The Eco Seal Canada Method
The traditional method of waterproofing block and brick foundations involves digging around the home's perimeter, exposing the foundation, and applying multiple layers of protective material. This process is disruptive and often requires heavy machinery, which damages landscaping and takes several days to complete. Homeowners are left dealing with the inconvenience of torn-up yards and the expense of labour-intensive work, which can be frustrating and costly.
Eco Seal Canada offers a modern, less invasive solution to block and brick foundation waterproofing. Instead of extensive excavation, we use a specialized injection technique to seal cracks and prevent water from entering your foundation. This method is faster, cleaner, and more affordable than traditional waterproofing techniques. By applying waterproofing compounds directly to problem areas, we can protect your foundation from water infiltration without the need for heavy equipment or landscape disruption.
