Drainage Services
Poor drainage can lead to standing water, saturated soil, foundation problems, basement leaks, and damage to landscaping and hard surfaces.
Horizon Contracting provides residential and commercial drainage services, including French drains, weeping tile systems, catch basins, drainage improvements, and solutions for pooling or improperly directed water.
We focus on identifying the water source and determining the best way to divert it away from your building and property.

Insulation & Attic Services
Proper insulation and ventilation are important for maintaining an energy-efficient and healthy home or building. Inadequate insulation and air leakage can also contribute to moisture problems, excessive heat loss, icicle formation, and ice damming.
Our attic insulation and remediation services include blown-in cellulose insulation, air sealing, exfiltration prevention, attic ventilation improvements, and other measures designed to improve attic performance.
We don’t simply add insulation and walk away. Where appropriate, we look at the entire attic system to identify sources of heat loss, air leakage, and ventilation problems.

Interlock & Paving Stones
Horizon Contracting provides interlock and paving stone installation, repair, and replacement for patios, walkways, entrances, driveways, and other exterior surfaces.
Proper preparation is critical to the long-term performance of interlocking pavers. Our work can include excavation, base preparation, grading, drainage, installation, joint sand, and finishing.
We can also repair existing interlock by lifting and releveling areas that have settled or become uneven.
Whether you’re installing a new patio or repairing an existing walkway, we can help create a durable and attractive finished surface.

Leak Repair & Water Penetration
Water leaks can cause significant damage if they aren’t properly diagnosed and repaired. A visible leak isn’t always originating where the water appears, which is why finding the source is an important part of the repair process.
Horizon Contracting provides leak repair and water penetration services for residential, commercial, and condominium properties.
We investigate water infiltration and can address problems involving foundations, walls, windows, drainage systems, exterior surfaces, and other areas where water may be entering a building.
Our goal is to identify the source of the problem and provide a practical, long-term repair.

Foundation Repair
Foundation problems should never be ignored. Cracks, water penetration, movement, and deterioration can allow moisture into your building and potentially lead to more significant problems over time.
Horizon Contracting provides foundation repair services in the Waterloo Region, including foundation crack repair, exterior waterproofing, drainage improvements, weeping tile installation and replacement, and other foundation-related repairs.
We investigate the condition of the foundation and recommend the appropriate repair based on the source and severity of the problem.

The Right Solution for Your Property
Some projects are straightforward. Others require investigation to determine what is actually causing the problem.
A wet basement may be caused by a foundation issue, drainage problem, or combination of factors. Uneven interlock may be related to poor base preparation or drainage. Ice damming may be caused by heat loss and inadequate attic insulation.
That’s why we take a problem-solving approach to contracting.
We look beyond the visible symptom to understand the underlying issue and recommend a solution designed to address the actual cause.
If you aren’t sure which service you need, contact us and tell us what you’re experiencing. We can help determine the appropriate next step.
