Real Experience. Real Solutions. Real Results.
Andrii’s career has taken him through some of the toughest waterproofing jobs across the GTA—including Toronto, Mississauga, Oakville, Halton, and Hamilton. These aren’t simple fix-and-go projects. They require engineering-level thinking, customer trust, and boots-on-the-ground problem-solving.
Here are just a few real-world examples:
💧 Case #1: Persistent Basement Flooding in Mississauga
A detached home experienced repeated basement flooding due to a misrouted drain system and failing sump pump. Andrii diagnosed the issue during the first site visit—spotting incorrect slope gradients that other companies missed. He coordinated a full drain re-routing, installed a dual sump pump system with battery backup, and waterproofed both interior and exterior walls. The result? A dry basement for the first time in five years.
💥 Case #2: Crumbling Foundation in Oakville
A 1950s bungalow had serious structural risks from an untreated horizontal foundation crack. Andrii not only developed a custom solution involving crack injection, exterior waterproof membrane, and reinforced weeping tile system, but also worked closely with city inspectors to ensure full compliance. His coordination and on-site quality checks helped avoid a $30,000 rebuild for the homeowner.
🚿 Case #3: Backwater Valve Emergency in Hamilton
After a major rainstorm backed sewage into multiple homes, Andrii was called to coordinate emergency installations of backwater valves under tight municipal deadlines. He helped clients fast-track rebates, pulled permits, and scheduled full installations—all within 48 hours, ensuring families were protected from further sewage backups.
🧠 What Makes Andrii Stand Out?
Technical Mastery: He understands every phase of waterproofing—from sump pump systems and drain tile layouts to foundation integrity and flood prevention.
Customer-First Leadership: Every estimate includes 60–90 minutes of personalized consultation. He walks clients through root causes, solutions, pricing, timelines, and city permits or rebates.
On-Site Quality Assurance: He visits job sites during execution—not just before or after—to guarantee nothing is missed, no corners are cut, and the solution works long term.
Problem-Solver Mindset: Andrii believes “There’s no such thing as an unsolvable waterproofing issue—it’s all about the right strategy and relentless attention to detail
Clients often describe Andrii as knowledgeable, detail-oriented, kind, hardworking, and extremely responsive—qualities that make him a vital part of the Waterproofing4Less promise.
