Excellent, professional and personable

Mud Monkeys came highly recommended from a friend when we started looking for a company to underpin our basement. We dug out and waterproofed the entire basement of our home. Darby and his team were professional and accessible through out the project. They made it easy. The quality of the work surpassed our expectations. Highly recommended.

waterproofing

I am very happy with the job that Darby and his team did on my house. His guys were punctual, polite, and worked really really hard. They had to hand dig trenches between houses that very close together. I was impressed with how well they cleaned up around my place after such a dirty job. I would definitely recommend them.

Excellent Company

We highly recommend Mud Monkeys. We used this company for two jobs. One for our business and the other for our home. They were very professional and respectful of our properties. At all times we felt we were in good hands. We were very impressed to see that Darby was ready to be part of the dig when needed. Darby was also very supportive of his workers and treated them with respect. Thank you again for a great job!

Great Decision

There are a lot of things to weigh when you choose someone to help you with your home: cost, quality/craftsmanship, reputation, accountability and even chemistry. For us Darby and the Mud Monkeys struck the perfect balance of all those things.

What they did for us:
1. Exterior waterproofing
2. Basement benching (lowering)

Why Mud Monkeys:
1. Darby & team - knowledgeable, skilled, responsive, hard-working, honest/trustworthy, fair, problem-solvers
2. Value - they did a great job at a fair price
3. Accountability - they delivered against all of their promises (and then some), were on time/on budget and have a warranty that goes on pretty much forever
4. Reputation - over their many years they have earned a wonderful reputation (even our building inspector had nice things to say).

Definitely one of our best renovation decisions. Thanks Mud Monkeys!

Interior Waterproofing

I cannot say enough good things about the interior waterproofing that Mud Monkeys did for us. Darby was extremely responsive and explained all of our options before work started. Pricing was competitive. Staff were great - kept the house clean and were very respectful. These guys worked in tandem with our plumber and even he couldn’t say enough good things. I would definitely recommend.

Basement Waterproofing

Great job done, the job stayed on schedule, workers were clean and removed everything from our site. very up front with cost and details, also advised of possible issues before hand. No added cost to the job in the end. Nice to have a dry basement. No more need for a mop and bucket on the heavy rainy days.

$3,200.00

Exterior waterproofing

Darby from Mud Monkeys first came to provide a quote at the beginning of summer 2018. He was happy to answer any questions I had, and thoroughly explained what the work would entail based on my request. We decided to move forward with work at the end of the summer. The work was completed on time and the price quoted was the price paid.
Following this initial work, we discovered more waterproofing was required. I didn't hesitate to call Mud Monkeys again. They were able to quickly provide a quote for us, and were able to adjust their work schedule - including working on the weekend - to fit us in. Darby, Nick, and all of the crew were great to work with.

WATERPROOFING

Tired of mopping the water in your basement? Does your basement smell of mould and mildew? Is your foundation wall retaining water slowly and deteriorating? If the answer is yes to any of these questions, then the following will describe the reasons why, and how, to eliminate the problem. The cause of your basement's musty smell is because your foundation wall is retaining water, be it in the hollow block cavities or trapped behind the double brick or stone wall, as well as the water that is absorbed by the block, brick and stone. This combination causes the wall to produce mould, mildew and epharecense. The water trapped in the wall slowly deteriorates the wall, starting at the bottom.The water that makes its way into the basement through the wall and seems to cause us the most grief may not be the most concerning problem. The same problem will not occur with a solid poured concrete wall. The reason being you will find a defined crack in the solid wall that allows all the water to enter in, without retaining little, or any water.Regardless of which type of foundation you have, it can become watertight, mould and mildew-free by sealing your foundation from the OUTSIDE. With solid poured concrete foundations, you can inject the crack from the inside and the elements stay out.You must expose your foundation wall from grade level to 6" below the top of the footing. Then you must clean the wall thoroughly, exposing the deteriorated areas and cleaning all the dust and dirt from the wall. Then, restore any cracks or loose mortar joints with hydrolic cement. Cement coat the wall,Tar and install 6mm poly plastic on top. Once the wall is treated, install a 4" continuous weeping tile covered with 6 inches of 3/4" stone. Then back-fill the earth compacting at every foot. At grade level slope the earth, concrete, interlocking etc. away from the house.This method never fails. I have used this system over 13 years without fail. I have the references for you to refer to. We also have a photo album to take you step by step through the procedure.So, stop mopping! Relieve your allergies from mold and mildew and restore your foundation. When you do decide to restore your foundation do it the right way - from the outside. Remember, 40% of all my work is fixing other people's attempt to stop the water.
