Garage repair

Stay away from this company and never give them any money.
I hired them to repair my garage floor which was always damp.
They quoted me a price and said that they could start immediately but did not.
They wanted money upfront as they said they had cash flow issues because they had done a lot of work for the City of Ottawa and they were not being paid promptly.
They would show up at my property late in the morning, smoke and chat and complain that they had not brought the appropriate equipment. They would work for a couple of hours and then leave and also leave their cigarette butts, coffee cups and food wraps.
The contract called for excavation but it was too shallow. It called for footings but then Francis decided that footings were not needed.
He brought in a lot of aggregate and compacted it with a front end loader.
Then he sent two kids to dig out the gravel and install a drain and weeping tile.
The weeping tile was installed unevenly and water would have just collected in it and not drained out of the garage.
They put down some polymeric sand and failed to remove the excess before watering.
I was told that concrete was going to be poured on August 23rd 2024 and when that didnt happen September 3rd 2024.
Then no one showed up for 2 weeks.
I got a structural engineer who thought that the work to date was unsatisfactory and would not solve the damp floor problem. He also said footings were essential.
I was able to get another contractor, Action Restoration to come and fix everything to my satisfaction.
I am writing this review to help others see that this is a disreputable company and they dont make the same mistake as I did.
I intend to take them to court over this matter.
I am going to take SLC
