For homeowners, farmers, and property owners in Stayner, construction work often involves more than one trade. A wet basement may require excavation, foundation repair, waterproofing, drainage, and concrete restoration. A barn project may involve a properly prepared slab, frost protection, and durable foundation work. Even a renovation or outbuilding removal requires careful demolition, debris disposal, and site preparation.

Tor Contracting Inc. provides these services under one roof. With a proven track record serving property owners throughout Simcoe County and surrounding communities, our team brings practical experience to residential and agricultural projects in Stayner and across Clearview Township.

Whether you need a concrete contractor in Stayner, foundation waterproofing in Stayner, or reliable demolition in Stayner, we can help you plan the work and complete it properly.

Construction Services for Stayner Homes and Rural Properties

Stayner includes established residential neighbourhoods, newer construction, rural properties, farms, workshops, barns, and accessory buildings. Each setting presents different challenges.

Older homes may have cracked foundations, deteriorating parging, or basement water problems. Rural properties may require additional coordination around grading, drainage, private wells, septic systems, equipment access, and agricultural buildings. A contractor must understand how each part of the project affects the next.

Tor Contracting combines:

  • Excavation and site preparation

  • Foundation repairs

  • Exterior waterproofing

  • Drainage improvements

  • Residential and agricultural concrete work

  • ICF foundation construction

  • Building and outbuilding demolition

  • Concrete and debris removal

  • Roll-off dumpster bin rentals

This integrated approach reduces the need to coordinate multiple contractors and helps keep the project organized from the first excavation to the final cleanup.

Foundation Repair and Waterproofing for Stayner Basements

Water in a basement is more than a nuisance. It can damage finished areas, create unpleasant odours, encourage mould growth, and contribute to long-term deterioration of foundation walls and floors.

Common warning signs include:

  • Water appearing after rain or snowmelt

  • Damp or musty basement odours

  • White mineral deposits on masonry

  • Cracks in foundation walls or floors

  • Peeling paint or damaged drywall

  • Puddling near the foundation

  • Sump pump or drainage problems

The right solution depends on the source of the moisture and the condition of the foundation. Interior patching may not solve water pressure coming through the outside of the wall. Likewise, waterproofing alone may not correct a structural crack or drainage problem.

Tor Contracting’s foundation repair and waterproofing services include inspection, excavation, wall preparation, repairs, membrane installation, drainage, and backfilling.

For existing foundations, our process includes:

Waterproofing should also be considered alongside grading, downspouts, weeping tile, sump systems, and overall site drainage. Redirecting water away from the foundation is essential for protecting the repair over the long term.

Tor Contracting’s waterproofing service includes a five-year warranty, giving Stayner property owners added confidence in the completed work.

Concrete Flatwork for Homes, Barns, and Agricultural Buildings

Concrete must be designed for its intended use. A residential patio does not have the same requirements as a barn floor, equipment pad, garage floor, or agricultural loading area.

For homes in Stayner, Tor Contracting provides concrete work for:

  • Driveways and garage aprons

  • Patios and walkways

  • Sidewalks

  • Garage floors

  • Basement floors

  • Foundations

  • Small commercial flatwork

On farms and rural properties, we also provide concrete solutions for barns, workshops, equipment storage areas, and other agricultural applications. These projects require careful planning around access, base preparation, reinforcement, drainage, load requirements, and Ontario’s freeze-thaw cycles.

Our concrete services include the preparation work behind a durable finished surface. That may involve excavation, forming, granular base installation, reinforcement, pouring, finishing, and control joints.

A long-lasting concrete surface starts before the concrete truck arrives. Poor subgrade preparation, standing water, inadequate reinforcement, or improper drainage can all contribute to cracking and settlement. Tor Contracting focuses on the complete installation rather than treating concrete as a simple surface pour.

ICF Construction in Clearview Township

For new homes, additions, garages, workshops, and agricultural buildings, the foundation is one of the most important decisions in the project.

Insulated Concrete Forms, or ICF, combine reinforced concrete with continuous insulation. Tor Contracting is trained and certified in Nudura ICF products and provides complete ICF foundation installation, from excavation and footing preparation through concrete placement, waterproofing, and backfilling.

Homeowners searching for ICF construction in Clearview often want improved energy performance, structural strength, and long-term durability. ICF foundations can provide a continuous insulated wall assembly with strong resistance to moisture, temperature changes, and everyday wear.

ICF may be suitable for:

  • New residential foundations

  • Home additions

  • Garages and workshops

  • Agricultural buildings

  • Frost walls

  • Commercial foundations

Every project still requires proper design, permitting, excavation depth, reinforcement, drainage, and waterproofing. Soil conditions, grading, well and septic locations, and site access should be considered early in the planning process.

Safe Demolition for Renovations and Outbuildings

Demolition in Stayner is often part of a larger project. A homeowner may be removing an old garage before building a new one. A farmer may need to take down an aging shed or outbuilding. A renovation may require interior demolition, concrete removal, or selective removal around an existing structure.

Tor Contracting provides:

  • Full building demolition

  • Garage and shed removal

  • Barn and outbuilding demolition

  • Interior demolition

  • Selective demolition

  • Concrete demolition and removal

  • Deck and fence removal

  • Debris hauling and site cleanup

Our demolition team handles the practical details, including site assessment, safety planning, utility coordination, removal, sorting, hauling, and cleanup. We are fully insured with $5 million in general liability coverage.

Winter work is possible when the project is planned properly. The photo above shows the type of all-weather demolition and disposal operation needed to keep a project moving through challenging Ontario conditions.

Before demolition begins, property owners should confirm permit requirements, utility disconnections, access conditions, and the intended use of the site afterward. On rural or agricultural properties, zoning, setbacks, septic systems, wells, and environmental constraints may also affect the project.

Clearview Township’s official website is a useful starting point for reviewing municipal planning and permitting information. For project-specific requirements, property owners should confirm details directly with the Township.

Convenient Dumpster Rentals for Stayner Projects

Demolition and renovation projects create a large amount of waste. Tor Contracting’s roll-off bin rentals provide a convenient way to manage household junk, construction debris, renovation materials, wood, concrete, and other approved waste.

A roll-off dumpster can be delivered directly to your driveway or jobsite, allowing you to dispose of materials without making repeated trips to a landfill or transfer station. This is especially useful when completing a renovation, clearing an outbuilding, or preparing a property for new concrete or foundation work.

The correct bin size depends on the material, volume, available space, and project duration. Our team can help you choose an appropriate option before delivery.
