When water sits against your basement suite entry, it seeps into the door frame and subfloor. That moisture rots the wood and invites pests, turning a small puddle into a costly repair.
A well-designed entrance enhances your suite’s appeal to renters and increases property value. Upgrading the door and adding a small landing can transform a dark stairwell into a welcoming feature that sets your suite apart.

Dry Entryways Guaranteed
When rain seeps under a basement suite door, the whole space feels damp and unwelcoming. A good exterior drainage plan stops water before it reaches the entry, keeping your suite comfortable and valuable.
Our method includes regrading the ground, installing trench drains, and sealing door thresholds. With basement suites in Vancouver, you get a dry, worry-free entry that lasts through every storm.
Glenbrooke North’s hillside lots and heavy rainfall make basement suite entries especially at risk. Water naturally flows toward the lowest point, often right at your suite’s door.
Many homes here sit on clay-rich soil that drains slowly, so standing water is common after a downpour. In Glenbrooke North, we create drainage solutions that fit the local terrain to keep your entry dry all year.
Drainage Solutions
In Glenbrooke North, many lots are sloped. A basement suite entry often sits below ground level, while the higher ground slopes toward the door. We cut back the finished grade so the paving slopes away from the entry. Then, we install a trench drain across the full width of the entry just before the door. This drain captures surface water that flows down the walkway or yard before it can pool at the door.
In areas where the soil drains slowly, we use a solid PVC pipe with the trench drain. This pipe carries water to a lower point or a dry well. At the doorway, we install an aluminum or composite threshold with a sill pan underneath. We seal the corners where the jamb meets the threshold with exterior sealant. For basement stairwells and window wells, we use galvanized or polymer covers and line the walls with dimple drainage board to reduce water pressure against the concrete.
In Glenbrooke North, the basement entry is a low point in the building, so drainage depends on gravity before any sealant is applied. We design the entry so water flows down the finished grade, through the trench drain, and away from the foundation. The below-grade wall keeps wet soil away from the structure.
Wet winters and clay-rich soil can hold water against concrete. To manage this, we create a capillary break and use free-draining stone behind the wall to help water reach the footing drain quickly. Flashing at treads, landings, and the threshold overlaps downhill to stop any joint from facing uphill. We also secure exterior stair stringers and guards to ensure stability on the sloped ground.
