Safe and dry entries
Slick steps and pooled rainwater at a basement entrance are not just annoying—they’re a safety risk. They show that the exterior wasn’t built to handle our wet climate. Paragon Exteriors fixes this by correcting the slope, drainage, and surfacing so water moves away from the door. We start by checking how the landing connects to the surrounding grade and hardscape.
The fix usually involves re-grading the walkway, installing channel drains, and rebuilding the stairs with the right pitch. We replace worn treads and landings with materials that meet code, grip in the rain, and resist rot. The result is an entry that stays dry underfoot, whether you’re adding a suite for income or giving family their own basement suite in Vancouver.
Delta gets some of the heaviest rainfall in Metro Vancouver. Many homes sit on flat, clay-heavy lots that slow drainage. A basement suite entry at the bottom of an exterior stairwell collects every drop that hits the house and yard. Poor exterior detailing shows up quickly here.
Older split-level and ranch-style homes with below-grade suite entries are common in areas like Ladner and Tsawwassen. Seasonal saturation softens the soil, shifting concrete pads and pulling landings away from the foundation. Paragon designs every rebuild—from the footing up—to stay secure through decades of Delta winters.
Drainage solutions for Delta
For Delta’s clay-heavy lots, we dig deeper than usual for the stairwell footprint and fill it with compacted crushed rock. This creates a stable, well-draining base that keeps the landing slab safe from seasonal clay expansion. We shape the concrete with a two-percent slope to direct water toward the drain, away from the house.
Treads and landings are made from rot-resistant materials like premium pressure-treated wood or composite. They have a heavy broomed finish for better grip. We secure the landing to the foundation using stainless steel dowels set in epoxy, which prevents settling. Channel drains with galvanized grates are placed in concrete and connected to the perimeter drain or a pop-up emitter downslope.
We treat the stairwell as part of the building’s outer layer, placing metal flashing behind the weather-resistant barrier where the landing meets the house wall. A capillary break, using closed-cell foam or flashing, separates the concrete from the foundation to stop moisture from moving up. The back wall of the stairwell has a dimpled drainage mat that directs any seepage down to the footing drain.
All connections to the foundation use stainless steel parts to resist rust from constant moisture. The drain system is designed for heavy rain, with a clear overflow path that directs water away from the entry if the main drain clogs. By linking the stairwell freeboard to the foundation drain line, we make sure water does not press against the suite’s exterior door.
Basement suite permit requirements
In Delta, you need a building permit to build a secondary suite, to change an existing space, or to finish an unfinished basement. Renovations for a secondary suite must go through the residential building permit process. The old secondary suite rental permit is no longer issued as of April 8, 2024.
Before you start, check if your property is allowed to have a secondary suite. In Delta, secondary suites are allowed in some single-detached residential zones, but the rules can vary by property. Confirm the current requirements and your specific zoning with Delta’s building department.
