Halo Water Proofing has been the Ottawa area's go-to call for Emergency Waterproofing because we answer the phone, show up on time, and stand behind the work.

Halo Water Proofing is a licensed and insured Emergency Waterproofing company built around one idea: show up when you say you will, explain the problem in plain language, and fix it so it stays fixed.

We don't send apprentices to figure it out on your dime. Every Ottawa job is run by a technician who has done this exact repair dozens of times, with a supervisor who signs off before we call it finished.
One call gets you a straight answer and a real appointment window — not a call-back promise.
📞 +1-866-476-1348Most Ottawa customers didn't wake up one day with a flooded basement. It usually started small. These are the early signs worth calling about.
Odor is often the first sign Ottawa customers notice, well before any visible water shows up.
Hairline cracks can widen over a Ottawa winter's freeze-thaw cycle and become active leak points by spring.
It's easy to dismiss efflorescence as harmless dust, but it actually signals active moisture movement through the wall.
A sump pump that never stops cycling is often working harder than it should, or is undersized for your Ottawa lot's water table.
A bowing basement wall is a structural concern in addition to a water one — this is the kind of Ottawa call we prioritize fast.
