Where basement and foundation
Cracks And Leaks Can Occur
Tie rod holes in basement walls are created by the 5/8” rods used to hold the steel forms together during the original foundation pouring of your basement. After the concrete has cured, the rods are disassembled and when they are removed, holes are left that go straight through your foundation.
Problems can also occur if window wells were not properly fastened to the wall. During the winter, when the ground freezes and swells, it may eventually push the window well upwards causing the earth to flow underneath the well and into the drain.

Cracks up to 25mm wide could be a sign of structural damage and should be inspected and repaired by a professional. Very severe – any crack above 25mm in width indicates serious structural damage and will need major repair work, which could include underpinning and rebuilding.

The guys from DoneRite have saved an old guy a lot of grief. Their work was fast and very clean, getting into and out of the basement, and keeping my shelves protected.
They were friendly, knowledgable. When on breaks, they helped me understand some of their work.
No more up and down stairs emptying buckets every day, and my sleep is peaceful now.

The DoneRite team was masterful, I highly recommended them!
We bought our home in 2015. It had waterproofing previously, but was limited, we had more work done years ago. The extra work was effective but not covering our whole house. Sadly, more leaks, and more complicated.
I tried to learn enough before they came to do an estimate. They provided a quote covering both outside and inside and explained a technique to connect both wraps I had not heard of when looking up waterproofing.

A window well filled with water, and then leaked, like Niagara Falls, in May.
The crew at DoneRite excavated and repaired a crack within a few days of my call.
You guys are amazing. Thank you!

We thought the problem would go away, but the spring rains this year have forced us, and we are very pleased in the work you've done.
We will recommend you to everyone!!!
