10+ years experience
St. Albert has a water table problem that a lot of homeowners do not realise they have until it shows up in the basement.
The Sturgeon River runs right through the city, and properties in the lower-lying areas near it sit closer to groundwater than equivalent homes on flatter ground elsewhere in the region. That does not mean they flood. It means the drainage system has less margin, and when weeping tile silts up or a sump fails, the water arrives faster and there is more of it.
The mature neighbourhoods, Grandin, Braeside, Forest Lawn, Sturgeon, are now well past 50 years old, with the original clay tile and damp-proofing that came with that era. Newer areas north and west are the same builder damp-proofing story as the rest of the region.
We take on residential basement waterproofing, foundation repair and drainage work throughout the area:
Grandin · Braeside · Forest Lawn · Sturgeon · Mission · Akinsdale · Lacombe Park · Heritage Lakes · Deer Ridge · Oakmont · Erin Ridge · Kingswood · North Ridge · Woodlands · Riverside · Jensen Lakes
Not automatically, but it raises the odds. What matters is your specific lot: elevation relative to the river, soil, and how your weeping tile discharges. Homes that drain by gravity to a storm connection may never need a pump. Homes in lower areas usually do, and in those cases a battery backup is worth the cost because the outages and the storms tend to arrive together.
Yes. Seasonal leaking means the system is at capacity rather than failed, and capacity only goes one direction over time. It also means water is already reaching the wall, which continues the freeze-thaw damage year-round even when you cannot see it. Melt-only leaks are the easiest and cheapest ones to fix because you are catching them early.
No. The on-site inspection and the written quote are both free, with no obligation. We would rather look at it properly and tell you the truth about what it needs, including when it needs less than you expected.
Usually within a few days for a standard inspection, and faster when there is active water. We are reachable daily from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. If water is coming in right now, call 780-910-6196 and say so.
Yes. Every exterior waterproofing job carries a written workmanship warranty, and the terms are in the quote you receive before you agree to anything.
Small leaks become big repairs with every freeze-thaw cycle. Get it looked at now, for free.
