About Us
Report
During an age when basements were used for coal, storage and the occasional party, GJ MacRae was one of the first contractors to see the benefits of a dry, fully usable basement. We are also considered one of the first companies in the region to have used the term "Foundation Repair" back in the late 1970's.
Basement Waterproofing
Report
Waterproofing and drainage considerations are especially needed in cases where groundwater is likely to build up in the soil and potentially raise the water table. This higher water table causes hydrostatic pressure to be exerted underneath basement floors and against basement walls.
Hydrostatic pressure forces water through cracks in foundation walls, through openings caused by expansion and contraction of the footing-foundation wall joint, and up through floor cracks.Hydrostatic pressure can cause major structural damage to foundation walls and is likely to contribute to mold, decay and other moisture-related issues in your basement.

Crack Repair
Report
Over time concrete structures tend to settle, move and essentially fracture or crack. This is true all across much of the northern hemisphere. Concrete is a very sturdy building material (thanks to the Roman empire), but it offers very little flexibility in the wake of settlement, shifting and overall natural levels of porousness.
Window Wells
Report
Window wells and window well drains are installations that play an integral part of any below-grade window installations. Homeowners enjoy the feel of natural light in their basements; but drainage and waterproofing considerations need to be kept in mind. Improperly installed or un-maintained window wells are most susceptible to leakage and/or cracking inside the foundation walls.
Underpinning
Report
Less mess, more space, no taxes! You love the neighbourhood. It's got a great elementary school, your kids love their teachers, their friends, and the high school around the corner has a great reputation. You like the 20-minute commute to work, the local Starbucks has your incredibly complicated coffee order down pat and 10 years ago you could see yourself staying here until you retire.
