Waterfproofing the front of the house

I had a company come out to water proof the front of our home and didn't finish the job. Colm noticed the job not finished and came to my rescue and finished the job in a very timely manner. He was very professional and I would highly recommend the service he provides.

Excavation and grading front yard

ActFast Waterproofing comes highly recommended from the reviews on HomeStars, and for a good reason. Living in a older home in Toronto, we were concerned about the foundation and preventing water from damaging the foundation. After consulting with ActFast Waterproofing on the approaches we could take, we had Colm and his team excavate and regrade the front yard to effect proper drainage from the house. Colm showed up on time, was very courteous. and began his assessment right away. He provided a straight forward review of the scope of work that was required to ensure that water would drain properly. There was no pressure or up sell and he stuck to the work that was needed. Colm walked me through his approach and what was necessary (as to why). His work was professional and done on time, exceeding all of my expectations. At the end of the job, we were to sod the front lawn ourselves to finish the look. He insisted in helping us lay the sod to ensure that the work was completed and the grading was to our satisfaction. Very happy with the work and I feel very confident in having chosen Colm and ActFast Waterproofing. I will definitely call again should I need more work done in the future. Thanks Colm!

Waterproofing

After another waterproofing company said they were done, Act Fast came in and did all the proper finishing. Professional, courteous and efficient.

I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have waterproofing done.

Thank you very much for the review,our team couldn't understand why the previous crew didn't finish the job properly,the barrier strips are the last part of the job and doesn't take too long to fix and are essential for the water and the soil to not go by the membrane,here's to a dry basement!

Waterproofing our Victorian semi

Waterproofing our Victorian semi in downtown Toronto posed some unique challenges, including rock-hard clay soil that required extra labour to expose the foundation wall. Colm and his crew worked hard in hot weather, taking the challenges in stride and never losing their sense of humour. Colm clearly takes pride in his workmanship and was happy to explain the waterproofing process in detail. He invited me to inspect his work at every step, and to consult whenever a decision was needed. I recommend Act Fast for their hard work, honesty and attention to detail.

Basement water issue

We called Act Fast Waterproofing on a Thursday afternoon with a basement issue and Colm called back promptly and viewed our property that evening. He appraised the situation and communicated our options clearly and professionally. Time was of the essence so Colm and his team worked that weekend to complete the work which, we were very satisfied with. We would highly recommend Act Fast Waterproofing.

Interior Waterproofing and Sump pump installation

Firstly, I would like to thank Colm for his expert job in doing waterproofing in my basement. We had a crappy contractor initially who messed the job halfway and Colm was so professional to take over, did a detailed analysis and also charged reasonably to fix the water problem so brilliantly. Colm is the man for water problems in the basement and I would highly recommend him.

Leak in Corner of Basement after heavy rain

We had some water coming in in a corner of my very old basement after heavy rains. Colm came by quickly and discussed several options, all of which were reasonably priced for the work. We selected an approach and the work was done quickly and competently. After today's heavy rains I can confirm that the basement is now dry! I would not hesitate to use Act Fast again.

Basement Waterproofing

ActFast gave us a competitive price for waterproofing our basement. Colm was great he explained every step of the process in great detail to make sure I understood everything. They started the job promptly. When a major structural issue was discovered he recognized that it was time to stop and discuss this with me. He was great and flexible with his schedule to accommodate my engineers and other contractors to get the job completed as fast as they could he even came on a few weekends! Now that the work is completed he has always just been a quick text message away for anything questions we may have. I would highly recommend Colm and his team at ActFast for your waterproofing needs.
