The name “Etobicoke” derives from the Mississauga word wādapōkāng, meaning “place where the alders grow.” No wonder these water-loving plants chose to grow right between Lake Ontario, the Humber River and Etobicoke Creek. Most buildings in Etobicoke were built in the 80s, and now, in such conditions prone to water damage, they definitely require basement waterproofing and underpinning.

Luckily, the WillFix team knows Toronto and the GTA, with its weather and soil challenges, backward and forward. Contact our experts to get a cost-effective home renovation from a team with over 20 years of experience.
