FOUNDATION REPAIR

Being faced with a major foundation repair and feeling lost in who to turn to and trust was very daunting to say the least. After getting other estimates and opinions I was still left feeling unsure about who to trust enough to hire. Then I met Dave Marcotte and it was an easy and instant decision. I felt complete trust and knew without a doubt that I would hire this company to repair the foundation. Not only did he fit us in before winter even though this meant extending his season, Dave and his crew were unbelievably amazing. I honestly never met a more professional group of people. Every single employee working at our home were extremely polite and each one went the extra mile to get the work done. The communication Dave or his crew provided to us daily was fabulous. I know nothing about foundation repairs or any of the issues that can and sometimes do happen. However I can say that during all of this we never felt left out or in the dark about what was happening. We were always given updates and knew what to expect. Every single day the crew would clean up and leave the outside area safe and secure. We would highly recommend Dave and his crew for any job and feel absolutely confident that you as well will be writing your own glowing report on Dave Marcotte Foundations. I should also mention that his quote was the most reasonable one and never went above what his estimate was. Hands down this is the only company you should consider for any scope of work needed that his company performs. Thank you Dave and all your crew for such outstanding customer service and professional work. It’s not hard to see why this company continues to achieve such high ratings.

Front porch repair

I had a repair that involved a few different trades/areas of expertise. I called this company and although they didn't typically do this type of project, I was told someone would come by. I was pleasantly surprised when Dave came by to check on the issue and he kindly provided some helpful advice on how to approach the project. This advice did not include generating any business for Dave. After challenges finding a reputable company to complete the project, I reached out to Dave and he agreed to take it on. He was prompt with communication and reliable with his word - something I did not find with many other companies. Once Dave was on the project, I found that things moved ahead in a timely manner. The work was done professionally and I was kept informed on the progress. There were no surprises. I am not sure how Dave does it but he was able to manage this small project seamlessly when I am sure he has many other larger projects on the go.

Foundation Repair and Waterproofing

Dave and his team were a pleasure to work with from start to finish! They were competitively priced (best out of multiple quotes) and did a fantastic job as his staff are well trained and have all the tools required to do the job efficiently. Dave took the time to answer all of our questions and walk us through the project step by step as it progressed. They completed a full, all-sides, down to the footing exterior waterproofing and property re-grading alongside interior crack repair and reinforcement to structural engineer specs. They handled all of the other aspects including the structural engineer, HVAC, plumbing and parging, and the final product looks 10x better than what we started with. We’ve had two big rains already this fall and we haven’t see a drop inside since they completed in mid October 2019. Alongside price, we choose Dave Marcotte Foundations because of their reputation and I would highly recommend them to anyone else in Ottawa who is looking for an honest foundation repair company.

Great work done quickly

Dave was very helpful and responsive in solving a small crack in our foundation. He worked with the structural engineer we hired and provided a quote on the specs that the engineer created. The work was done quickly and professionally. We’re very pleased with the result and would recommend him to anyone.

Foundation Crack Fix

Q. What's more frustrating than finding water in your basement. A. Finding out that the remedy is an industry full of dIng dongs, happy to waste your precious time and upsell you on services you dont need.
Took me a few calls to find Dave and his no bull approach. Very satisfied. Easy booking, professional staff, quality work and advice. Best value for the price with 10 year warranty.

Foundation waterproofing and much more

I would give 20 stars out of 10 if I could. Extremely impressed by the excellent professional, efficient and ethical work of Dave Marcotte and his team. They went above and beyond to ensure my expectations were fully met. Excellent communication skills. Pretty hard to find such a great team!
I will never be able to thank you enough Dave to have waterproofed my house, helped fixed many other aspects of my house and foundation, and referred me to excellent and professional companies. I finally feel safe. I wished I would have known about your company last year. It would have saved me from dealing with these very poor contractors out there and the problems they caused me. Thank you again for your great work! Marie

Relacing crawl space under extension with new full foundation

I own an older home built in the 30s. Dave Marcotte did a foundation repair and waterproofing on our house 20 years ago for the previous owner and we continue to have an extremely dry basement despite living very close to a river where many others have issues. He has also done repairs on several neighbors who gave him excellent reference. Our most recent project involved excavating beneath a very old extension on the back of our house that never had a proper basement under it. It was source of heat loss and haven for wild animals, plus we needed the basement storage space. It was a big job, required supporting the weight of our two story house while Dave’s crew dug beneath and retro-built a new foundation (block wall, weeping tile, Styrofoam insulation) . The process went seamless. Dave coordinated with the engineer, did the job on schedule and budget and was extremely processional and reliable. Dave is clearly very knowledgeable in this field and all final product is flawless- He gave us regular project updates and was very respectful for safety issues on site and careful to not be too disruptive to our neighbors. I have recommended Dave to others already and will continue to do so.
