Standard bookings inside Georgina: 3–5 business days. Same-day: usually before 2pm if we get the call by 9am. Emergency (water in flue, active leak): 90 minutes on weekdays, 3 hours weekends.
Weekend and holiday coverage
Saturday standard. Sunday and stat holidays are emergency-only with a documented callout fee that's waived if we book the follow-up job.
How we prioritise
Active leaks, gas smell, and animal-in-flue jump the queue over cosmetic waterproofing work. We text realistic ETAs, not "we'll get to it."
Common questions
Do you need a permit for waterproofing in Georgina?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Georgina. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.
What warranty do you offer on waterproofing in Georgina?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
Is waterproofing covered by home insurance in Georgina?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
Are you WETT and WSIB certified?
Yes — WETT SITE-Comprehensive #C-46082, CSIA #12408, and active WSIB #7248194. Certificates emailed on request before the job.
Do you offer same-day waterproofing in Georgina?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Georgina for most standard scopes.
How long does waterproofing take in Georgina?
2–3 hrs is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Georgina?
Yes. Condo boards in Georgina typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
