Twelve services, one standard

Every Repair Starts With the Same Diagnosis

Foundation problems in Ottawa show up in a handful of recurring patterns – a crack that formed as concrete cured, a wall bowing under lateral soil pressure, water finding its way through a cove joint, or a basement that needs more usable depth. Each pattern has a matched repair, and the twelve services below cover the full range of work we do for homeowners and businesses across the city. Rather than guessing which one applies to your situation, we start every job the same way: a real, on-site look at the affected area before recommending anything, so the service you book is the one your property actually needs.

Not sure which service you need

Start With an Inspection If You're Not Sure

Most people comparing two or three services want a straight answer rather than a guess. If you’re not sure whether you need crack injection, exterior excavation, or a full underpinning job, start with an inspection. We’ll look at the affected area, tell you honestly what we find, and recommend the right next step rather than the most expensive one.

Residential and Commercial, Under One Roof

The twelve services above cover both sides of our business. Most calls come from homeowners dealing with a crack, a wet basement, or a foundation that has settled unevenly, and those jobs are typically scoped and scheduled within days of the initial assessment. Commercial and multi-unit work follows the same twelve service categories, but the scheduling, access, and documentation needs are different: work is planned around business hours, tenant notice, and any site-specific requirements a property manager flags during the walkthrough. Whether the property is a single-family home or a retail unit, the underlying repair methods, from crack injection to full underpinning, are the same proven techniques, just applied at a different scale and on a different timeline. We serve homeowners and businesses across Ottawa from established inner neighbourhoods through the surrounding suburbs and rural communities, using the same standards and the same written-quote process everywhere we work.

How Pricing Works Across These Services

Every service is priced after a real, on-site assessment, not from a phone description or a flat per-square-foot rate. A single crack injection is priced very differently from an exterior excavation, and a full underpinning project is priced differently again from a sump pump installation, so the cost calculator and each individual service page give typical Ottawa-market ranges to help you set expectations before we visit. What you’ll never get from us is a number that changes significantly once work has started; the written quote you receive after the assessment is the price for the scope we agreed on, and any change to that scope is discussed and approved before it’s added to the job. If a job turns out to be smaller than the range on a service page suggests, that’s reflected in the price too. The ranges are a starting point for budgeting, not a minimum we work up to. We’d rather under-promise on price and over-deliver on the finished work than the other way around.

Every service we offer follows the same core steps: an honest inspection, a written scope and price, and a repair matched to the actual cause rather than a one-size-fits-all fix. Which service applies to your situation depends on what's happening, where it is, and how long it's been going on.

Choosing the Right Service

How do I know which service I need?

Call or send photos of what you're seeing and we'll point you to the right service, or come assess it in person before recommending anything.

Can one visit cover inspection and repair?

Inspection can often happen on the same visit as a quote. The actual repair is scheduled separately once we've confirmed the scope, since materials and crew size depend on what we find.

Do you offer free assessments for every service?

Yes, every service listed here starts with a free, no-obligation assessment and a written quote.

Is one service ever a better starting point than the others?

If you're genuinely unsure what's wrong, foundation inspection is the right starting point – it's a straightforward visual assessment that points to whichever repair service actually applies.

Do prices differ much between these twelve services?

Yes, significantly. A single crack injection can run a few hundred dollars, while a full underpinning project can run into the tens of thousands – the cost calculator and each service page give typical Ottawa-market ranges.

Can I book more than one service at the same time?

Yes, it's common for a project to combine services, such as crack repair with exterior waterproofing. Your written quote will cover the full combined scope.
