Dave Marcotte Foundations

We had to have the entire block foundation of our home waterproofed this summer. We met with four contractors and got four estimates on the work. One estimate was really high, one was reasonable but did not include many items in the scope of work and the estimate from Dave Marcotte Foundations and one other contractor were similar.

We decided to go with Dave Marcotte Foundations because 1) his estimate was very competitive and 2) we found him to be very thorough when giving us the estimate, helping to ensure there were no surprises and 3) going the extra mile (hauling away an old brick fireplace hearth, for example) was no problem for Dave Marcotte and 4) he came highly recommended.

We are very glad with our decision, and largely because we can now see how Dave operates his business. He gave us a start time-frame of mid-summer and commenced the work when he said he would. He finished the work when he said he would. His communication is the best I have seen from any contractor. He sent us regular emails letting us know what would happen next and when. He often sent us emails on Sunday letting us know what we could expect for the week ahead. He was always fast to respond to emails or phone calls and quick to respond when we brought up potential issues.

Dave was on the job site a lot of the time, doing a fair amount of the heavy lifting himself. His team of workers are hard-working, respectful and courteous. They were tidy and always left the jobsite clean. When the job was complete, they did an excellent job of clean-up.

Dave Marcotte knows foundations. He is very competitively priced. He communicates well and he gets things done when he says he will.

I would highly recommend Dave and his team for any foundation work.
