Commercial buildings develop the same underlying problems as houses – cracking, water infiltration, settling, bowing walls – but at a larger scale and with more at stake in terms of downtime and tenant disruption. We handle crack repair and injection, exterior and interior waterproofing, wall stabilization, underpinning, and drainage corrections for retail units, office buildings, warehouses, and light industrial properties.
Commercial work gets scheduled around your business, not the other way around. That can mean after-hours or weekend work for a retail storefront, phased work for a multi-tenant building, or coordination with property management for shared spaces. We plan the sequence with you before anything starts so operations aren’t interrupted more than necessary.
Commercial foundation work is scheduled around your operating hours, tenants, and any loading or access requirements specific to the property, which often means evening, overnight, or weekend work for retail and office buildings that can’t have equipment blocking entrances during business hours. Industrial and warehouse properties tend to have more flexibility on daytime access but need coordination around active operations and any safety requirements on-site. We plan the schedule with you before anything starts, not around it.
Crack repair and waterproofing scheduled outside business hours where needed.
Foundation and drainage work coordinated with property management and tenants.
Larger-scale crack repair, underpinning, and slab work for industrial floor plates.
Commercial pricing follows the same underlying cost drivers as residential work – crack injection from $300 to $1,200 per crack, exterior excavation from $1,500 to $3,000 per crack, and underpinning from $80 to $500 per linear foot – but access, tenant coordination, and any required off-hours scheduling can add to labour costs on a commercial site. Every commercial quote is itemized and can include the documentation your property management or insurance provider needs for their own records.
Commercial foundation work is scheduled around your business hours wherever the scope allows, whether that means working overnight, on weekends, or in phases that keep part of the space usable throughout the project. We’ll walk the site with you or your property manager ahead of time to identify any access constraints, tenant considerations, or code requirements specific to a commercial or multi-unit building before finalizing a plan.
Retail and office buildings often show foundation issues tied to parking lot drainage directing water toward the building, older mechanical penetrations through the foundation wall that were never properly sealed, or settlement under additions built at a different time than the original structure. Industrial buildings more often see wear from heavy floor loads or forklift traffic near foundation walls. We assess commercial properties with the building’s specific use in mind, not with a residential checklist. We also coordinate with property managers and, where needed, a building’s own maintenance staff so the scope of work, access requirements, and any code or insurance documentation your building needs are handled alongside the repair itself, not as an afterthought. For larger commercial sites, we can phase work across multiple visits to limit disruption to any single area of the building at one time. Multi-tenant buildings add another layer of coordination, since work near a shared wall or a leased unit often needs notice to the affected tenant, and we’ll flag that during the initial walkthrough so there are no surprises once work is scheduled.
