Moved into a house & discovered legacy of moist basement issues. Made decision that house was a keeper & wanted to invest in fixing it right. Did lots research. Chose to go with Clark basement systems. Signed on to do 40 ft of "WaterGuard" installation. I then added another 20 ft more for a total of 60 linear feet WaterGuard. They (Mark) always had a professional phone manner. Always called in advance to confirm appointments/attendance. Roy did a quote that had integrity & didn't change although it turned out that basement concrete floor was extra hard to jack-hammer out due to it was extra thick & "bonded concrete". Rob's team did work that was thorough & professional - albeit obviously back-breaking. Writing this report is the least I could do. On the humorous side, to my surprise, my ordering pizza for the work-team for lunch upset them as it was deemed to slow them down. What diligence! The only suggestion I might have for Clark basement systems: perhaps a bit more time spent on reviewing exterior water-flow & downspout situations as part of the "holistic solution". This work added to their repertoire of solutions would surely & simply help divert/prevent water flowing up against the house foundation... . Warm regards, R&J of Stouffville. P.S. The best part of using Clark Basement Systems... their solution involves removal & exposure of the basement foundation/walls/floor/foundation. This results in the owner knowing what's behind there, what are trouble areas ...and then removing any damaged/affected wood/drywall/insulation/ studs/etc.

Approximate cost of services:
$6,700.00
What could this company do to improve their services?
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?

I met Mike through a referral. I hired him on to help me finish my home’s exterior. My home is a reverse board & batten exterior and has wooden window frames. My choice of paints: Cabot Pro VT. At the start of the project, he listened to my concerns, preferences and the idiosyncrasies of the project. He understood fully & was totally accommodating. Mike’s prep work is thorough and with purpose. His handiwork is completely independent, positive, efficient, diligent and meticulous. I learned a few ‘tricks of the trade’ from him as well. I am very pleased to be a reference for Mike. After completing my place, some good friends of ours were so pleased with our place, Mike’s already been over to quote on painting their board & batten exterior as well. I have dealt with dozens of contractors and wish that all contractors were like Mike. R&J of Stouffville
