Professionalism beyond question

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of having our crawl space renovation project completed.

We worked with Victor and his team.

Their quality of work and attention to detail was excellent

But more than that they conducted themselves in a clean organized and polite manner

It was a pleasure to meet and work with them to achieve our goals.

Fast work but never follow up when issues arise

I had extensive rot in my foundation. They fixed it up in a few days and it looked better.

Shortly after they finished, I noticed that water is collecting around my dehumidifier instead of draining to the sump pump they installed. The floor along the front wall is also bouncy in new areas now. There are also still rodents getting in. They are coming in through the gaps where the beams have sunk. The contractors just filled the gaps to the outside with a bit of spray foam. Ive tried to contact them by email and phone but no one has reached out. Its been months!

Crawlspace

Needed someone to put some spray foam and cover my dirt crawlspace. I'm happy I asked for professionals to do it, but there was a lack of communication between the sales team who sold the package and the team who did the job. I was also told there was a bit of mold in my crawlspace by the vendor -- that was not the case.

I'm overall satisfied with the end result and glad I did it to add value to my property, but my experience could have been a bit better.
