These guys are great. They helped us renovate our old damp, moldy basement by excavating, waterproofing outside and in, and build an exterior entrance to our basement. Darby worked closely with our contractor to cut the new door way and a new 40"X58" window in our front brick wall. Always on time, always on budget. Darby was personable and a great resource for other reliable professionals and trades. He helped us to problem solve around a number of issues and satisfy the concerns of the bulding department. Our basement is now, dry, deep and warm. We are absolutely satisfied with the quality of the work and with the experience of working with Darby and his crew. His word is his bond.

Water leeking into basement after bad summer of rain. Contacted Mud Monkeys for a quote. Darby was very gracious and the quote was reasonable. Team was on time, job was on budget. They didn't hesitate to answer my questions as they worked on the job and showed us why we had the water damage and how they would fix it. Didn't mind me taking pictures as they went along either. Very satisfied and hiring them again to finish the basement from the inside.

From the initial estimate to the work to paying out the final amount owing, Darby and his crew went the extra mile. When providing the estimate, Darby explained thoroughly the options with recommendations considering my particular context. When the scope of the work changed, Darby came out to assess the work again, point out possible issues that I might want to address in future and was extremely fair with his pricing. Justin and his crew who worked on the basement, were very respectful of the space. They made sure to clean up at the end of each day and Justin was very knowledgeable and also provided some insight into some plumbing work that I should consider doing. The crew was very efficient and at the end of each work day I was always impressed by how much was accomplished. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of waterproofing. Thanks again Darby, Justin and the whole crew!

First and foremost, this review is long overdue. We had a recurring problem of our basement flooding after rain storms. Finally enough was enough, and decided we needed to solve the problem to make the basement usable for the kids. I contacted Darby after a recommendation from a friend and after reading his company's reviews on Homestars. Darby and his team were professional and polite from the initial quote to the end of the job. They worked hard and always left the place clean at the end of the day. A special mention to Justin who did a heck of job. If you have waterproofing to be done, look no further - Mud Monkeys are your guys!

We were very impressed with Darcy and his crew. He was always available and responded to our concerns immediately. They did a very professional job waterproofing our basement and when we encountered a problem along the way, he responded immediately and solved the problem right away. We found that Darcy was both professional and an all around nice guy, which made it very comfortable to work with him. We would highly recommend his company to anyone who is considering a waterproofing job.

Mud Monkeys are a class act. It's been years since we have come across a team of workers that were so professional, timely, honest and above all, the hardest workers we've ever come across. Nick, Jessie, James, Rob and their boss Darby Braun renewed our faith in hiring trades men. These guys (honestly) worked tirelessly every single day and showed up promptly at the crack of dawn. Their estimate was extremely fair, as this was a real challenge, going down almost 10 ft, installing weeping tile & putting evrything back in place. Our neighbours were really impressed with their polite & friendly nature and were as amazed as we were. Honeslty, we were not expecting the expertise & professionalism of this team and would highly recommend them to anyone undertaking the task of waterproofing their basement. It rained hard today, so we had an opportunity to see if any water came into our basement. Powder Dry! We cannot say enough about Darby and his team .... you'll just have to call them yourself & from the "get go" you'll know you are dealing with honest and bona fide professionals. If there was a 10+ rating - that's what we'd give them - they are a "rare breed" in today's world. There's no monkey business with these guys - They are tireless, and we defy anyone to find a better team of professionals. Sincerely Pat & Vic Dawe, Toronto

Darby, Nick, Justin and the guys were great. They showed up the weekend there was torrential rains, provided an estimate and were excellent about scheduling the work. They were prompt, professional and extremely tidy. I would definitely use Mud Monkeys again and would happily recommend them.

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.
