want to live in

In action
We show you the work,
not stock footage
These clips come from our own job sites, filmed by our crew. Left: spray foam application in a crawl space. Right: complete sealing of a foundation wall. This is exactly what will happen at your place.
- Closed-cell foam applied in controlled, gauge-checked passes.
- Site masked and ventilated before the first drop of foam.
- Photo and video report handed over with the warranty at completion.
Who we are
We don’t sell digging.
We solve problems.
Most yard and basement problems don’t have a single cause. A clogged drain, an active crack, a poorly insulated wall and a yard that sends water back toward the house — often it’s all of it at once.
Groupe GZ covers the whole chain — excavation, demolition, insulation, earthworks. We diagnose the real cause before the excavator shows up, we show you what we find, and you get an itemized quote where every line is justified.
The GZ advantage
Why people call us back
for everything else
An excavation or demolition job is intrusive. Our job is to make it as painless as possible — and to never have to come back.
Diagnosis before quote
We inspect, photograph and explain the cause. If a minor fix is enough, we won’t sell you a full excavation.
Your yard put back
Backfill compacted in layers, sod or pavers reinstalled, driveway cleaned. Your neighbour shouldn’t be able to tell we were there.
Compliant materials
BNQ-certified rigid drain, 3/4 clean stone certified pyrite-free, filtering geotextile membrane. Material invoices available on request.
Licensed, insured, warranted
RBQ licence 5857-6190-01, liability insurance and CNESST compliance. Written warranty handed over at completion — not promised verbally.
One point of contact
The person who answers your call is the one who follows your job. No handoffs, no “let me check with the office”.
How it’s built
A seven-layer
waterproofing system
Dropping a pipe in the bottom of a trench is not a French drain. A system that lasts thirty years is a precise stack where every layer has a job: drain, filter, relieve pressure, waterproof, insulate.
- BNQ rigid drain directed to the sump pit, on a bed of clean stone.
- Filtering geotextile membrane to stop fines from clogging the system.
- Drainage board that breaks hydrostatic pressure against the wall.
- Polyurea membrane hot-applied for continuous waterproofing.
- Spray foam to cut the thermal bridge at the foundation wall.
