How to fix a leaky stone foundation?
We have been fixing leaks for decades. Stone foundation will at time have water infiltration points from years of ground water softening the lime mortar. The lime mortar in stone foundations over times ( hundreds of years) will become washed out and leave only sand in the walls which allows for leaks and structural concerns. With a full stone foundation restoration we can re-mortar valuable structural foundation joints and apply waterproof wall coatings restoring your foundation to its original sealed basement waterproof condition.

Basements and foundations come in all different sizes and are different ages. Stone foundations construction period on the North Shore ranges from 1600's to 1900's.
