Basement cracks

We had wonderful, fast, professional service fixing some minor cracks to our basement walls. These guys were great to work with and have already recommended them to a friend who was equally pleased with the cost as well as the work. Thanks!

Foundation Repair

Dave had done very good work for us before so it was natural that, when a new foundation leak needed repair, Dave's company would be our 'go to'. Our timeline was tight, as we had sold our house, and Dave worked our contract into his already tight schedule. It required a dig, crack repair, sealing, and backfill. The crew did an amazing job! What is noteworthy is that the crew were very happy to be working at Marcotte Foundations - that says it all! I'd recommend this company without reservation. Thanx, Dave!

Dave Marcotte and his crew completed the work we requested in a timely professional manner. He and his crew are friendly, conscientious and reliable. They kept the work areas clean and tidy. I would highly recommend this company.

Foundation Repairs

We bought a 50 year-old detached house on a sloped lot with a concrete block foundation in need of repair required in a short time frame. We asked 3 contractors to provide estimates. Dave promptly came to our house to discuss the project and make helpful suggestions. He quickly provided an estimate, which was quite reasonable and made room for us in his busy schedule to meet our time line. The team installed new french drains, waterproofed the foundation and reinforced the concrete block. He coordinated any subs that might be required to complete the work. The work was done professionally, on time and on budget with minimum disruption leaving a clean site. I would highly recommend Dave Marcotte foundations to anyone with foundation problems.

Foundation crack injection

Dave is fantastic! He came to my house during the winter when there was an usually warm period and water was coming in an old crack in the foundation. Dave immediately came out and used a low pressure injection to completely seal the crack. over the course of the spring thaw, we did not have one drop of water enter. Keep in mind that our foundation is very old (circa. 1945) and this did the trick nicely. We are now comfortable that we will finish the basement and will be using Dave and his team for that. You cannot go wrong by calling Dave.

Waterproofing, frost heave of garage, garage floor

Diagnosed problem when others hadn't. Told me what was needed, costs, timing. Dave and his guys answered all questions, kept me informed. Clean work site, daily progress reports.

Hire Dave and company. Get what is needed, when promised and at the price agreed. Also, you will sleep better. Work done 2 1/2 years ago. No cracks, no movement. Can't say enough positive about these guys. If everyone was like these guys, the world would be a better place.

Water in crawl space

Dave took the time and trouble to identify the cause of the water damage problem and saved me a lot of money.
The scheduled foundation excavation and waterproofing was deemed unnecessary when he found a plumbing leak.
I was impressed with Dave's tenacity at wanting to get to the root of the problem.
I really appreciated his honesty and integrity and would not hesitate to recommend him and have him work for me in the future.

Basement restoration

Dave Marcotte did a fabulous job restoring our basement. We live in a heritage house (1860) and had water issues.
From the start, Dave followed up with us immediately re a quote and was available to answer all of our questions. He began work on the exact date we had booked in 1 year earlier.
Dave is experienced and extremely organized with a tight schedule with all of his trades persons. The job went quickly and smoothly and what I really liked about Dave is that he is a problem solver.
I would highly recommend Dave Marcotte Foundations as you can see from our rating. Extremely professional!!!
