Frequently Asked Questions About Parging in London

How much does parging cost in London, Ontario?

Parging costs in London typically range from $8-15 per square foot for standard applications, $12-20 per square foot for repair work, and $15-25 per square foot for decorative finishes. Costs vary based on surface condition, accessibility, and finish requirements.

How long does parging last in Ontario's climate?

Can parging be applied over existing parging in London?

Sometimes, but we carefully assess existing parging condition first. If the old parging is well-adhered and structurally sound, we can apply new parging over it. Otherwise, complete removal and reapplication ensures best results.

Spring through fall (April-October) offers ideal conditions for parging in London. We avoid extreme temperatures, wet conditions, and freezing weather to ensure proper curing and maximum adhesion.

Common causes in London include poor surface preparation, inadequate mix design for Ontario's climate, moisture infiltration, freeze-thaw damage, and normal aging. We identify the root cause and provide lasting solutions.

Does parging help with basement moisture in London homes?

Yes! Properly applied parging creates a protective barrier that helps prevent moisture infiltration through foundation walls. Combined with proper drainage, parging significantly reduces basement moisture issues common in London homes.
