In the Ottawa-Gatineau region, homeowners facing foundation problems have a reliable ally in
Pro-Core, a company specializing in foundation repair services. As the backbone of any home,
a solid foundation is crucial for safety and stability. Pro-Core’s expertise in addressing water
infiltration issues and other foundation-related challenges ensures that residents can rest easy
knowing their homes are in capable hands.

Foundation problems, if left unaddressed, can lead to significant structural issues, affecting not
only the safety of the inhabitants but also the resale value of the property. Pro-Core offers a
comprehensive range of services to tackle these issues, including foundation waterproofing,
structural repairs, crack repairs, basement lowering, and interior repair systems. Their approach
is not only about fixing the immediate problem but also preventing future issues, thereby
ensuring the longevity of the home’s foundation.

Waterproofing is a key service provided by Pro-Core, aimed at protecting homes from water
infiltration, which can cause mold and mildew growth, as well as structural damage. Their
waterproofing solutions include weeping tile systems, window wells, and egress windows,
among others. For homes with more severe structural issues, Pro-Core offers services such as
underpinning, beam replacement, and wall straightening to ensure the foundation’s integrity.

Crack repairs are another critical service, as even minor cracks can lead to major problems if
not addressed promptly. Pro-Core’s team uses techniques such as polyurethane injections,
epoxy injections, and carbon fiber stitching to effectively repair cracks and prevent them from
worsening.

For homeowners looking to increase their living space, Pro-Core’s basement lowering service is
a transformative solution. By excavating and increasing the height of the basement,
homeowners can create additional functional rooms, recreational areas, or even separate living
quarters, thereby adding significant value to their property.

Pro-Core also offers interior repair systems, a cost-effective and minimally invasive approach to
foundation repair. These systems are preferred for their quick completion times and minimal
disruption to landscaping.

visible cracks, uneven floors, or water infiltration, are encouraged to contact Pro-Core for a free
