What it costs

Honest pricing guidance

Cost tracks the scope and how much digging is involved. As rough guidance: a drain camera inspection often runs $200–$500, drain cleaning or a simple fix a few hundred dollars, and perimeter-drain or foundation waterproofing work $5,000–$20,000+ depending on excavation, access, and how much of the foundation is involved. Rock, which is common here, can add to any dig.

These are ballpark figures to help you plan — not a guaranteed quote. You'll get a firm number, free, before any work begins.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly

Our wet coastal winters put a lot of water into the ground, and many homes sit on slopes or rock that channels it toward foundations and crawlspaces. Good drainage keeps that water moving away from the house instead of into it.
We feed a waterproof camera through the drain or perimeter line to see exactly what's happening — blockages, breaks, root intrusion, or collapse — so you're not guessing or digging blind. It's also common before buying a home.
Yes — damp crawlspaces are common in our climate. Depending on the cause we address drainage, add a vapour barrier and moisture control, and improve how water is directed away from the foundation.
Water pooling near the foundation, a damp or musty crawlspace or basement, efflorescence on concrete, soggy spots in the yard, or gutters overflowing toward the house all point to it. Catching it early is far cheaper than foundation repair later.
Perimeter drains and foundation waterproofing usually need excavation around the affected area, and we plan access and restoration into the quote. Simpler fixes like drain cleaning or surface regrading are far less invasive.
