20 Years of Experience. Now Under Our Own Name.
Buckshot Foundation Solutions was founded by tradespeople who've spent their careers waterproofing foundations across Calgary. Same expertise, same standards — now with our own warranty and our own reputation on the line.
Experienced Foundation
Waterproofing
Buckshot Foundation Solutions brings extensive hands‑on experience to every project. We don't just apply waterproofing — we understand how moisture migrates, the effects of hydrostatic pressure, and the importance of structural protection.
Founded by skilled tradespeople with diverse construction backgrounds, we bring a practical, detail‑oriented approach to every foundation. Whether it's residential basement waterproofing or complex commercial underslab applications, we design and install solutions that are built to last.
Based in Calgary, we serve homeowners, builders, and developers across Alberta with systems that meet and exceed building codes and industry standards.
Our Commitment
Waterproofing for Every Application
From residential basements to commercial parkades — if it's below grade and needs to stay dry, we know how to make that happen.
Foundation Waterproofing
Membrane systems applied to the exterior of below-grade foundation walls. The proper solution for water intrusion — a barrier that stops moisture before it ever reaches the structure.
- Full membrane systems
- Hydrostatic pressure protection
- Foundation wall application
Dampproofing
A cost-effective option for foundations where full waterproofing isn't required. Applied to exterior walls to resist moisture migration — commonly specified in residential new construction.
- Cost-effective solution
- Exterior wall application
- Moisture migration resistance
Underslab Applications
Waterproofing and radon barrier membranes installed beneath concrete slabs prior to the pour. Protects against groundwater infiltration and gas migration from below.
- Groundwater protection
- Radon barrier installation
- Pre-pour slab application
Elevator Pit Waterproofing
Elevator pits sit at the lowest point of a building and are particularly vulnerable to water accumulation. We install systems that keep them dry, compliant, and functional.
- Specialized below-grade application
- Critical water management
- Mechanical space protection
Plaza & Pedestrian Deck
Waterproofing systems for roof terraces, planters, pedestrian walkways, and mechanical room floors — high-traffic areas that require systems built to handle movement, load, and exposure.
- Roof terrace waterproofing
- Pedestrian concourse protection
- Planter and deck applications
Insulation
Closed-cell XPS foam board installed as part of a below-grade assembly. Creates a moisture-resistant thermal barrier that controls condensation, resists mold growth, and prevents heat loss through the foundation wall.
- Closed-cell XPS foam board
- Moisture and mold resistance
- Eliminates thermal bridging
A Clear Process, Start to Finish
Honest assessments. Straightforward quotes. Work done properly the first time.
Inspect
A thorough on-site assessment of your foundation — we look at what's happening, listen to what you've observed, and identify where the problem is actually coming from.
Diagnose
Engineer-grade analysis to determine the root cause and customize a solution tailored to your foundation's specific needs.
Waterproof
Professional installation using premium materials and industry-best techniques to create a permanent barrier against water.
Guarantee
Every project backed by our warranty. We stand behind our work with long-term protection for your peace of mind.
Problems We Solve
Foundation issues don't fix themselves. Here are the most common problems we address for Calgary homeowners and businesses.
Wet Basements
Water seepage, puddles, or chronic dampness after rainfall or snowmelt. We identify and eliminate the source.
Foundation Cracks
Visible cracks in foundation walls that may indicate settling or hydrostatic pressure issues requiring professional repair.
Sump Pump Failures
Relying on pumps alone isn't waterproofing. We install comprehensive systems that work with or without power.
Efflorescence & Stains
White powdery residue or water stains on walls indicate moisture problems that need proper waterproofing treatment.
Mold & Mildew
Persistent mold growth indicates high moisture levels that require proper drainage and waterproofing solutions.
Poor Grading
Improper landscape grading causes water to pool against your foundation instead of draining away from your home.
