Crackmasters

Jim Lucas, the owner of Crackmasters, came to us as a result of a home inspection done as part of an estate sale. A portion of the foundation on this old house that we were selling was in need of serious repair, even a re-build. When it became apparent as work progressed that the job was becoming more complex and that the scope was getting outside what Crackmasters normally does, Jim did the research (unasked) and gave us the name of a specialty company that could do the work for us - even though in doing so it would cost Crackmasters the opportunity to do the work - which they could have done with some additional resources. But Jim knew that we were nervous and out of our depth on this and he wanted to set our minds at rest. And the work went from Jim to another company. So, we want to comment on the integrity and trustworthiness of Jim Lucas, who is a cut above so many others. At the outset, someone else told us that "Jim Lucas is the most honest guy I know". Well, we can believe it. How many tradespeople would put the interests of their customer ahead of even their own contract? Jim did, and for that we are very grateful and will recommend Crackmasters far and wide, to whoever will listen. Thank you very much, Jim!

I am writing this review six years after my husband and I contracted Wes Sutherland out of Edmonton to waterproof our basement. I'm not sure that we were truly able to appreciate how awesome of a job he and his crew did for us until recently. Not only has the work held up 100%, but he and his crew were absolutely amazing. They were on time, worked with our budget in every way possible, did quality work for the price, and didn't leave a mess. I have had several friends who have had similar weeping tile issues in old houses and they haven't had the best luck with the people they hired to do their work, some of them shelling out thousands only to face the same leaky wet basement the following year. Crackmasters, the name, might sound a little funny at first thought, but these guys really know what they're doing and I recommend them every chance I get.

Discovered water in my basement yesterday March 9, 2015 at approximately 2pm. Called Crackmaster based on customer review and spoke to Jim who explained the process and what they would do to fix the problem.Jim fixed an appointment for this morning for Jose who showed up on time and did an amazing job.
Thank You for your assistance. Very impressed with the work and the clean up after. Thank You

I was incredibly pleased with the work. When I found the cracks in my basement and outside, I was a little bit anxious. Jim explained everything and was very helpful over the phone. I was very happy that they were able to come so quickly. When Jose, showed up, he was on time and very professional. He explained everything, answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. The work was done quickly and everything was cleaner then before he started. I would highly recommend Crackmasters to anyone who needs their basement repaired.

I'm very satisfied with the service Crackmasters provided us. Jim was very detailed and accurate regarding the work required to fix the crack on our basement wall over the phone. The technician, Jose, came on time, he was pleasant, he worked efficiently and clean-up once the work was completed. I highly recommend this company. Thanks for your assistance.

We had a basement wall crack that was repaired by the builder 25 years ago which started leaking. I sent an email inquiry about the problem via the Crackmasters website and received a response from Jim within an hour. He described the procedure he could perform to rectify the problem and scheduled an appointment for the next day. Jose showed up at the appointed time and was a pleasure to deal with. He was very efficient, explained the process from end to end as he performed the work and did a complete clean up at the end. These guys provide a top notch, professional service at a reasonable price with a lifetime guarantee. Thanks guys!

Crackmaster and Jim Lucas came highly recommended by our neighbour, a building contractor. Lucky for me. Jim responded immediately, assessed the problem and came promptly, and very efficiently dealt with the situation. The teamworked hard, and were very pleasant. Jim explained things very well to me for which I was very grateful. All in all, I couldn't have been more pleased in every way. Thank you Jim.

Found Crackmasters site online and found their info to be informative. Send an email about my basement leak and Jim answered very quickly with a proposed solution. Took a few photos of the problem area and Jim confirmed what needed to be done. They fit me into their schedule right away and Jose arrived the following day right on time. Jose was very professional, ie. knowledgable, decisive and personable. He was able to identify right away where the problem area was and worked efficiently to apply their product to seal the crack. The process took under two hours, including the clean-up. Very impressive!

The service from crackmasters was excellent. We where showing our house when rebar holes started leaking. They came the same day and got the leaks fixed and provided a lifetime warranty. He also took the time to answer all my questions and followed up the next day. I would highly re comment Crackmasters.

After finding a leak in our basement after the tough long winter we found Crackmasters to be very helpful! Jim and his team did a great job fixing our foundation. Very professional and competitvely priced....would highly recommend his services!
