Our Services

Protect your home or managed property with expert waterproofing and foundation repair services designed to prevent costly damage and deliver lasting peace of mind.

Work That's Built to Last, Backed by Warranty

Every repair we complete is backed by a warranty, because a lifetime guarantee only means something if the company is still here to honour it. DryBasements.com  has been standing behind our work since 1990.

Structural Repair Warranty

The Fortress Foundation carbon fiber stitching and strapping system carries a lifetime warranty. This is an engineered structural repair, not a surface patch, and it is adopted into Section 9 of the Ontario Building Code.

Basement Guardian Sump Pump Coverage
Our BG Proline sump systems come with a 3-year equipment warranty. We provide a 1-year full-service warranty covering both parts and labour. For years 2 and 3, equipment-only coverage applies. All warranty service is handled directly through DryBasements.com; you never deal with the manufacturer.

Transferable Warranty

Our warranties are transferable to a new homeowner. If you are selling your home, a DryBasements.com warranty is a documented asset that adds confidence for buyers and can help close real estate transactions.
