Homeowners pricing foundation and underpinning work here can anchor on two line items: structural engineer site inspection / assessment runs $600–$1,200+ per visit (SEPCO Engineering) and city of Toronto minimum building permit fee (2026) runs $214.79–$214.79 per permit (minimum; underpinning is charged per linear metre on top) (City of Toronto Building Permit Fee Schedule). Expect Etobicoke quotes to trend higher where site access and disposal are limited. Add 13% HST before comparing quotes.
| Item | Typical range | Unit | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Underpinning a 1,000 sq ft basement lowered by 2 feet (total project)Nusite's worked example at their own $50 to $80 per square foot underpinning rate, over a four to ten week timeline. Permits, engineering, waterproofing, plumbing and finishing are all priced on top. | $50,000–$80,000 | per project | Nusite Group (Toronto underpinning contractor) |
| Structural engineer hourly rate (Toronto/GTA)An hourly consultation rate for advice only. SEPCO puts Toronto and the GTA at the top of the provincial band, $150 to $300 per hour, for highest demand and fastest turnaround. | $150–$300 | per hour | SEPCO Engineering |
| Exterior waterproofing, as part of a basement-lowering projectNusite prices this only where exterior work is needed; an interior waterproofing system on the same job is $5,000 to $8,000, and the waterproofing line as a whole is $5,000 to $15,000. | $10,000–$15,000 | per project | Nusite Group (Toronto underpinning contractor) |
| Building permit line as quoted by contractorsWhat a contractor bills for the permit, not what the City charges. Nusite lists it inside a $2,000 to $5,000 permits-and-engineering line, alongside $1,000 to $3,500 for the engineer's assessment and drawings; the direct City of Toronto minimum fee is $214.79. | $1,000–$1,500 | per project | Nusite Group (Toronto underpinning contractor) |
| City of Toronto minimum building permit fee (2026)A floor, not a range, and not the whole permit cost. The City charges $214.79 minimum on all work in 2026 and then calculates the permit as a service index times floor area; examination and inspection time is $92.79 an hour. Engineering, drawings, revisions and plumbing permits are extra. | $214.79–$214.79 | per permit (minimum; underpinning is charged per linear metre on top) | City of Toronto Building Permit Fee Schedule |
| Foundation crack repair - polyurethane injection (leaking crack)DryShield's polyurethane tier, for stopping active leaks with a flexible seal that tolerates seasonal movement. HST and finishing work are not included unless quoted. The $500 floor this guide used to show is not on their page. | $750–$1,000 | per crack | DryShield Basement Waterproofing (Toronto/GTA, 2026) |
Every foundation contractor here is ranked by the same public formula: a review-volume-weighted Google rating, what the company states on its own site, and the state of its record. The median company here carries 56 Google reviews. That keeps the list of 31 honest, and no spot is ever paid for. Read our full methodology.
Nobody buys a higher Etobicoke spot. Positions come from a published score across the 31 foundation contractors on this page: reviews weighed by volume, the company's own stated details, and its website, phone and photos. In Etobicoke, 83% of rated companies clear 4.8★, so small gaps matter.
Yes. Underpinning, bench footings and any structural foundation work in Etobicoke need a building permit plus stamped drawings from a licensed Ontario structural engineer under the Building Code, and the city inspects in stages. That process is why an underpinning job is scoped very differently from flatwork, and because it is excavation work it runs year-round.
Free estimates are the norm for local foundation contractors, usually after a short site visit. ConcreteFinder does not book them for you; it ranks the companies and publishes how to reach each one.
As of July 2026, 31 foundation contractors cover Etobicoke, at an average Google rating of 4.88★ and a median of 56 reviews each. With that many local options, get three quotes and compare scope, not just price.
Look for a quote that spells out preparation, slab thickness, reinforcement, finish and haulaway, plus deposit, payment stages and warranty. When two Etobicoke bids differ a lot, it is usually the scope, so read the line items before choosing.
In Etobicoke, this is year-round work, since it happens indoors or below grade rather than on open ground. Good local foundation contractors book up in peak weeks, so request quotes with some lead time.
