Not every wet basement in Stony Plain needs a crack repair. Water can come in through a wall crack, a window well, or where the wall meets the floor, and each has a different fix. We find the real entry point first, so you only pay for what solves it.
Three common entry points
A wall crack. A wet line running up or down the wall, often worse after snowmelt or rain. Fix: crack injection from inside, or exterior repair.
A window well. Water right below a basement window, and a well that holds water after rain. Fix: clear or add drainage, seal gaps, add a cover. See window well leaks.
Surface water and grading. Water on the side of the house where soil slopes toward the wall or a downspout empties. Fix: regrade and extend downspouts.
Why water pushes in
Snowmelt and heavy rain raise water pressure against basement walls and push water through cracks. The more water that collects against the foundation, the harder it pushes. Grading and downspouts are the cheapest way to reduce it.
What we do
- Look at where and when the water appears.
- Trace it to the entry point.
- Quote the fix for that spot, with a clear price.
- Point out anything else worth doing, and explain why, without bundling it in.
Free photo assessment
Send photos of the wet area inside and the wall or window well outside, with a tape measure for scale. We’ll tell you what it looks like before anyone visits.
Insurance
The City of Edmonton says insurance generally doesn’t cover damage from infiltration through cracks. Plan to pay for the repair yourself, and get it done right once.

Questions people ask
Water only comes in under one window. Is it a crack?
Probably not. Water right below a window usually means the window well is filling. Clearing and draining the well is often the fix.
Can grading really make that much difference?
Yes. Snowmelt and rain raise water pressure against basement walls. Sloping soil away and extending downspouts reduces how much water reaches the wall.
