Clarke Basement Systems

My husband and I contacted Clarke Basement Systems after a healthy home inspection and thousands of dollars were spent trying to rectify the cause of the musty cottage odour of this 30 something house. Our lifesavings invested into what quickly became a money pit when the day we moved in Mar.16/05 the furnace failed. So after a new heating and cooling system & spray in foam insulation expense 2005, brand new roof in 2006 it wasn't until a "healthy home" inspection in 2007 did we realize the basement was in dire need of repair. Quickly and accurately, Chris arrived to quote the job and Jose completed the work 2 weeks later. Jose noticed the tie holes were bad and repaired those at the same time which I knew were needing repair but the major seam was our priority and the tie holes would have to wait. There was no pressure to add on this expense, as Jose was so sincere in his true concern that as a professional, he knew as well these needed to be repaired. I hadn't the heart to ask him to fit in 6 or 7 exposed tie holes when we had only scheduled the seam repair at the time. Jose left behind a great impression of quality service and we greatly appreciate his work. Little may Clarke Basements realize, but we had lost our son 10 weeks after moving into our house to SIDS/SUDS. Our journey of grief has now begun the upward climb and our house has become our home with the help of Clarke Basement Systems.

To everyone at Clarke Basement Systems:

THANK YOU!

We couldn’t be more pleased with the job you did on our basement earlier this month.

Everyone we dealt with during this process was professional, polite and pleasant.

Roy, who quoted on the job was very knowledgeable and left us feeling that we had made the right decision in going ahead with Clarke. He even stopped by while work was in progress – not that he needed to as Todd, Rob and Graham had everything under control!

We have to comment on what a great crew we had. They were friendly, very professional and respectful in our home. They left everything neat and tidy. They even finished the job ahead of schedule, which was an unexpected and welcomed surprise.

The peace of mind we have about our basement is incredible.

We would gladly recommend Clarke Basement Systems to anyone needing waterproofing. In fact, family and friends who have known about or leaky basement hear all about Clarke and the fantastic job you did when they hear we have had the basement done.

Thank you again for doing such a great job!!

Sincerely,

Kevin & Wil MacKenzie

We love the work that was done in our basement. We have had a damp basement for 7 years and now after having installed the system, it is very dry and we are very happy with the high quailty of work.

Thank you

We had a musty, 45 year old, 2500 sq/ft building with an exposed earth crawl space of 18” – 24”. Clarke Basements came in, insulated the walls, covered the ground with their plastic liner and installed a Sani Dry Dehumidifier. We now have a dry, odour free crawl space and a very comfortable building. The price made us think twice before we did the work, but in the end we know it was worth the investment. The work was completed by the crews with little notice to us, even though it must have been difficult. If you have moisture in your basement these are definitely the people to talk too.

We had Clarke install their waterproofing system in both unfinished and finished parts of our leaky basement. Their estimator was excellent in explaining the process and providing an estimate, and returned a couple of times as we made changes to the project. Their work crew arrived exactly when they said they would and the project took exactly as long as they said it would -a rare event with most contractors. And despite having to cut drywall and jackhammer concrete, they left the place clean and tidy when they were finished. We can't comment on whether the system works or not as yet, but dealing with the crew was definitely a pleasure.
