Sump pump installation

This year with so much precipitation and run off the 3 way sump pump system alleviated worries about flooding.Jerry and his team installed it and stress was relieved. They were courteous and respectful of my home covering floors where traffic took place. Joe and Pro worked hard to bury outdoor piping. I would recommend their work to anyone.

Parging, Garage foundation repair and brick waterproofing protection

The work involved reparging, reinforcing and restoring the existing garage foundation that was breaking down and disintegrating, and spraying the existing brick walls, that were discolouring due to water splashes from the adjacent sidewalk, with a moisture protection spray..We are very pleased with the results of the work.

We noticed significantly damp carpet along an exterior wall in a basement bedroom. After removing drywall we discovered a previously repaired foundation crack that had re-opened. We discovered black mold behind the drywall and it became obvious damage had

Gerry with Foundation Guys was very knowledgeable and explained all aspects of the foundation damage and subsequent repair. The repair was addressed with their FlexiSpan Wall Crack System and work performed was efficient and neat. We are fortunate the damage was not more extensive and the fix relatively simple. The Foundation Guys' warranty and workmanship gives us the confidence call them for all future concerns and refer their services to others! Thank you Gerry.... Joan Marrin

Basment Estimate

I needed to obtain a number of estimates for a basement repair. I found the Jerry Sirois to be very patient, professional and engaging when I asked questions about my foundation. I really can't afford to have the work done at present (with it being Christmas) I would most certainly recommend the services of The Foundation Guys to an prospective client.

Foundation Repair

Very helpful and eager for our business. Stuck to the original quote even when the work was somewhat more extensive than originally anticipated. Did a great job putting the deck back together after the job was done.

Repairs to damaged concrete, retaining walls and stone retaining walls

Dana Sirois completed a major job for us in 2014 in tricky conditions with considerable water issues. Over the winter of 2014-15 the repairs experienced some deterioration. The Foundation Guys stood by their work, Dana came back and did a fantastic job of the fix-ups with new and better suited materials. We couldn't be happier.

Foundation Repair

I recently had parging and 3 cracks in the foundation of my house repaired by the Foundation Guys and I am very pleased with not only the result but the entire process. The crew was knowledgeable, helpful, respectful of my property and that of my neighbours and did a fantastic job. They were genuine.

Foundation crack repair and waterproofing

When we discovered there were multiple cracks in the foundation of our 1950s era house, we were understandably dismayed. The Foundation Guys were recommended to us by the stonemason who was working on our chimney - he had recommended the company to other clients, and had always heard very favourable reports on their work. The Foundations Guys were honest, knowledgeable, and careful. The work was completed professionally and in a very reasonable timeframe. We now have confidence in the integrity of our foundation. We would not hesitate to recommend Jerry and his crew.
