Warning - Very Poor Quality Work

Simple project. Needed 4 holes dug, for sono tubes to be placed 48” deep minimum as per standard bylaw requirements. Foundation was for a gazebo so standard need to ensure top surface of all 4 sono tubes were level was essential.

The Post Hole Company has no ability to ensure the foundations they dig are level at the surface. I had to spend time to level out their post holes as best I could while they were getting upset with the time required.

The posts were still not level once poured. I had to do use a number of shims to level the gazebo out as best as possible.

As another review mentioned, the quality of concrete they use is Very substandard. My drill went instantly through the concrete and the bolts would not hold.

Once on site I received an email from the company advising that the soil was filled with rocks (it was not) and that I had to immediately approve double the charge they had quoted or they would leave instantly and not drill or pour the foundation. When I showed them photos of their drilling once completed, showing there indeed were no rocks they basically said “too bad”.

They left a huge mess of gravel and concrete on the front driveway and street. It took us 2 1/2 hours to clean their mess up. I advised the company of the mess and they just didn’t care.

I absolutely would never use this company again. I wanted to share this information.

Approximate cost of services:
$800.00
