Drainage and Support Post Replacement
In respond to your review Mr. Lamont and Ms. Codding, and Ms. Codding’s father , when the job was completed, we call you on every major rain storm to follow up how the new drainage system was performing and your responds was “excellent” every time and also stated that it did not require the use of the sump pump at all.
We value our workmanship by following up with all our drainage customers on every major rain storm from April until before the ground freezes late in November.
We came twice in February and in April to view your concerns. On your ‘review’ you stated, “They took advantage of her good nature and didn't do what they were paid to do. Came back and said they would finish it properly, well they have disappeared again!”
Your project was completed on June 25, 2018, and you were very satisfied with the results and the follow up. You accused of us disappearing again. This spring was the wettest we had in sometime, which put us a month behind our schedule.
Your drainage issue was during the winter with the freezing rain and was not an issue during the spring/summer. We tried to schedule a return at the end of June or beginning of July. Our policy is, when we are committed with contract agreement, we honoured that agreement, and all parties can see the agreement.
As you know in February we had multiple days with freezing rain and you called us and complained that the drainage wasn’t absorbing the freezing rain, and I reply “that when the ground is frozen, no drainage system18 inches deeps will take the water away, because the ground is frozen and we are not responsible for any freezing rain”.
The drainage system was designed to handle even the overflow you are getting from your neighbours in the spring/summer.
We are not geared to handle service calls in the winter as our operations start from May 1st to November 31st.
We came to see you in April, and explained that we will come back as soon as the weather gets warmer and because your issue was only in the winter months and not urgent. We also promised that we will come and re-arrange a small section, of where the Reservoir French Well was installed and drain it towards your neighbour’s property, where there is a catch basin, of which were we not previously informed of.
The original grading was sloped towards your neighbours and we intended to increase the grade. As you may recall this spring was very wet and we had booked multiple projects in 2018 to start at the beginning of May, but could not proceeded because the weather condition.
