This was a foundation wall sealing project for an old stone foundation wall for a log house that is approximately 160 years old. Carefully excavated, we discovered the outer foundation wall was simply stacked field stones without any exterior parging of any kind. The wall was also very irregular and stones could easily be loostened by hand. ProCrete immediately cautioned against full wall exposure around the corners to adjacent new addition structures due to the nature of the wall. So we agreed to focus on the stretch of the wall where leakage was evident. They identified a below ground drain that was open and leaking right at the foundation wall, as well as an old basement window just below ground level with a skewed window frame, no runoff or drainage. To be able to Blueskin the wall they had to form and pour footings and a thin concrete outer wall filling in the stone wall irregularities. Proper drainage was secured for the downspout and window as well as a gravel drainage bed over the footings. The crew was efficient, informative, professional, and a pleasure to deal with. The job was executed to my full satisfaction at every stage. This company takes pride in their work and does not cut corners to save a few dollars on costs and pocket extra profit. They do the job right - a tough attitude to find sometimes amongst first time contractors you don't know. Our basement wall is now dry as a bone, whereas before it leaked after every substantial rainfall or snow melt. I would retain ProCrete again without hesitation and recommend them to anyone seeking quality work, done right and at a fair, competitive price.
