Crystalline waterproofing application on concrete wall

Permanent protection from the inside out

Crystalline Waterproofing

Our primary waterproofing method uses certified crystalline technology that penetrates deep into the concrete matrix. Unlike surface coatings that can peel or crack, crystalline compounds react with moisture and cement particles to form insoluble crystals that permanently seal pores, capillaries, and hairline cracks — even under hydrostatic pressure. This is the most durable and code-compliant solution available for below-grade elevator pit structures.

  • Penetrates up to 4 inches into concrete
  • Self-seals new cracks over time
  • Withstands high hydrostatic pressure
  • CSA and ASTM compliant
Sump pump system installation

Active water management when you need it most

Sump Pump Systems

Where groundwater levels are high or drainage is a persistent challenge, we design and install commercial-grade sump pump systems sized for the specific demands of elevator pits. Our installations include primary and backup pump configurations, float switches, alarm systems, and discharge piping routed to code-compliant outlets — ensuring your pit stays dry even during heavy rainfall or high water table events.

  • Primary and backup pump configurations
  • High-capacity commercial-grade units
  • Alarm and monitoring integration
  • Code-compliant discharge routing
Trench drain channel in concrete floor

Directing water away before it becomes a problem

Trench Draining

Trench drain systems are installed at the perimeter of elevator pits to intercept and redirect any water that enters before it can accumulate. We design, form, and pour custom trench channels that integrate seamlessly with the pit floor, connecting to sump pits or gravity-fed drainage as required by site conditions. Properly designed trench drains are a critical complement to crystalline waterproofing in high-risk environments.

  • Custom-formed perimeter channels
  • Integrates with sump or gravity drainage
  • Smooth concrete finish for easy inspection
  • Sized to site-specific water volumes

Our Process

01

Site Assessment

We visit the site to evaluate the pit condition, identify water entry points, assess concrete integrity, and determine the appropriate waterproofing strategy.

02

Scope & Proposal

We provide a clear, detailed written proposal outlining the recommended scope of work, materials, timeline, and pricing — no surprises.

03

Surface Preparation

Concrete surfaces are cleaned, chipped, and prepared to ensure maximum adhesion and penetration of waterproofing materials.

04

Application

Certified applicators install the waterproofing system according to manufacturer specifications and applicable building codes.

05

Inspection & Sign-Off

We conduct a final inspection with the client and provide documentation confirming the completed work and warranty details.
