Which part of the GTA is the job in?

Pick the city or neighbourhood to narrow the list to companies working there. 5 areas have enough listed foundation repair contractors for their own ranked page, each built from that area's review data alone.

Ranking

How is this ranking built?

Position starts with a Bayesian-adjusted Google rating, which weighs how many people reviewed a company as well as what they scored it, so a 5.0 resting on three reviews does not sit above a 4.8 resting on three hundred. A small amount is added for records that publish a website, a phone number and at least three photos. 81% of the rated foundation repair contractors here reach 4.8★, so the gaps between neighbouring positions are narrow and worth reading. Positions move as new reviews land, and no company is told about it in advance. Read our full methodology.

Frequently asked questions

What does foundation repair cost in Toronto and the GTA?

DryShield (Toronto) publishes $750–$1,000 per crack for interior crack injection, poured concrete wall, polyurethane, and Concrete Crack Repair Pros (Toronto) publishes $850–$1,500 per crack for interior crack injection, structural epoxy. Those are pre-tax figures, so add 13% HST. The foundation repair cost guide on WaterproofingIndex sets out every line item beside the source that published it.

How do I pick a foundation repair contractor in the GTA?

Three written quotes, each naming the same wall and the same scope, is the only comparison that means anything below grade: one firm can price an interior drain while another prices an excavation, and the totals will not be comparable. The shortlist above is every foundation repair contractor on record here, 83 of them, sitting at a median 4.84★ on a median of 46 Google reviews apiece. Ask each one for proof of insurance and for two addresses within a few streets where it did the same job.

When can foundation repair be scheduled in Toronto?

Interior work year-round; exterior excavation typically April to November. Frozen ground is what fixes the calendar: anything needing an open trench waits for the thaw, while work done from inside the basement carries on all winter. Ask each quote which parts of its scope need the ground open, because that single answer decides your start date.

Do these jobs need a permit, and does the quote include HST?

Ontario charges 13% HST on plumbing and waterproofing work, and GTA contractors publish their ranges before tax, so add it before comparing. Permits follow the scope, not the price. The City of Toronto requires a building permit and an inspection for a backwater valve, and charges an underpinning permit fee for lowering a basement or cutting a new below-grade entrance. Where a permit applies, the foundation repair cost guide prices it as its own line with the City's own figure.

How do I check out a foundation repair contractor in the GTA?

Ontario does not license waterproofing or foundation repair, so there is no provincial registry to look anyone up in and a trade logo on the truck proves nothing on its own. What can be checked is concrete: ask for a WSIB clearance certificate in the company's exact legal name, ask the broker to send the certificate of insurance to you directly rather than accepting a PDF forwarded by the contractor, and confirm the coverage actually matches the work being quoted. Anything structural, such as bracing a bowing wall or rebuilding a section of it, is likely to need a permit and an engineer's drawings, which your municipality's building department confirms case by case.

Can a company pay WaterproofingIndex for a higher position?

No, and there is nothing to buy. The order comes from a Bayesian-adjusted Google rating plus a small amount for records that publish a website, a phone number and photos. With 81% of rated foundation repair contractors at 4.8★ or better, positions here separate on narrow margins. The methodology page sets out the formula.

Questions to ask your contractor

  • What is causing this, and what happens if it is left another year?
  • Is this a cosmetic repair or a structural one, and does an engineer sign the drawings?
  • Are you repairing, rebuilding a section, or bracing, and what rules out the other two? See what each approach costs
  • Who pulls the permit if this turns out to be structural work?
  • Which parts are your own crew, and which are subcontracted out?
