Weeping tile isn't actually tile — it's a network of buried drainage pipe that protects your foundation by directing water away from your home. Whether you're dealing with a wet basement or want to proactively defend against moisture damage, ARC provides complete installation, repair, and retrofit services for weeping tile systems that actually work.

"We kept getting water in one corner of the basement, even after trying exterior caulking and grading. ARC scoped the drain and found it was completely blocked. They replaced that section and tied it into a sump. Problem solved. I wish we’d called them sooner."
-Heather S., Prince Edward County

"I didn’t even know my 1960s house didn’t have proper weeping tile until ARC explained it. They did a full install on one side of my foundation, and it made a huge difference. Professional, tidy, and fair pricing."
-Dan K., Belleville
