While earthquakes in Ottawa do not happen all the time, they do happen. For example, in May 2013, two earthquakes were felt in Ottawa and Quebec. Rating 5.2 and 4.1 on the Richter scale, the earthquakes shocked citizens who had never experienced the ground violently shaking before. If seismologists are to be believed, these won’t be the last major earthquakes to occur in the Ottawa region, either. Thus, it’s important for homeowners to check with a professional and determine if they need basement foundation repair.
According to the Farmer’s Almanac, Accuweather and a host of other meteorological sources, Canada’s winter is looking to be a rough one. Thanks to El Niño, a weather phenomenon that’s back after a five year hiatus, the storms will be fierce and the air will be freezing. For some homeowners in Toronto and the surrounding areas, this is an indication that it’s time to seek out basement leak repair services to ensure a dry, safe thaw.
In advance of colder weather coming into the Toronto area, as well as the rest of Ontario, The Crack Doctor has announced two special promotions available for a limited time to homeowners throughout the province. By addressing wet basement repair issues now, individuals and families can avoid experiencing stressful, expensive spring thaw leaks caused by damaged foundations that have not been permanently fixed.
The winter cold and spring thaw have been especially tough on homes throughout Ottawa and the surrounding communities. Consequently, The Crack Doctor has announced a special offer on foundation waterproofing and other wet basement solutions. Until July 15, 2014, homeowners can receive $100 off any service retailing for $1000 or more. Services retailing for less than $1000 will be eligible to receive $50 off at management’s discretion.
Across the nation of Canada, homeowners are becoming increasingly concerned because flooding outdoors has been leading to an unwanted situation: Flooding indoors. As basements are becoming wetter, more and more property owners are having to deal with the unhappy situation of being unable to use the lowest levels of their homes.
As the Ottawa Citizen recently reported, the 2013/2014 winter is the worst on record of the past twenty years. Ironically, the wintry weather didn’t break any records, but it did go on forever. Plus, there was so much precipitation between November and March that people in and around the city began to wonder if Mother Nature ever intended to bring spring into the picture.
