Posted on Rob Fratric Great job. Fast response to inquiries, job done fast and professionally. Put everything around the area back in place to the point where you wouldn't even know any work was done afterwards. Would 100% recommend calling them if you have a foundation repair issue.Posted on Luke Chiasson Let's just say that there aren't many companies of this calibre around these days. We've been dealing with GJ MacRae for the last seven years for everything sump pump related. Seven years ago the fine folks at GJ MacRae came in and replaced our existing sump with a modern unit complete with a marine battery backup and secondary pump. We have a ton of ground water around here and when it rains our sump fires non stop. Everything has been perfect and when it came time to service our system seven years in, GJ MacRae was all over it. Exceptional service, communication price and product. It's rare to see all 3 these days. Thanks for everything Gavin.Posted on Jeff S Gavin of GJ MacRae and his team did an amazing, quick and clean installation of a sump pump in our basement! I was very impressed with every aspect, from communication, to timing, to the finished product! Absolutely would recommend them! Thanks Gavin!Posted on Dave Frei When you are doing a large scale project like ours (basement dig, under pin, beam replacement and waterproofing), you need an expert team like GJ MacRae. They have the experience and the know-how to give you peace of mind that the job is being done right the first time.

These guys are the best in the business!Posted on The Impolite Canuck GJ MacRae did an amazing job on my cracked foundation. Highly recommend.

They even fixed some rod leaks I discovered after the second deluge last August at no extra charge.Posted on Jayne Patterson RCC just finished waterproofing my north exterior underground wall on my house in Roncy Village. When I requested a quote, Rick Deagazio promptly came to the house to inspect the wall and explained the work in detail. The crew started work right on the day specified. They were great guys. They were fast, efficient and finished everything in 3 days. I highly recommend RCC.Posted on Peggy Smith Very happy with a recent job completed by GJ MacRae Foundation Repair at our home.

I would highly recommend this company for any foundation/basement you may have.Posted on Brian Klodt Used GJ MacRae for a foundation repair at our heritage house built circa 1894. The experience was positive from the quoting through 3 days execution of the work. Was done on time and on budget with a hard working crew who were experienced and left behind a strong and waterproof block wall. Gavin the owner was a pleasure to work with. Would use them again if ever needed.Posted on Lisa Kemp G J MacRae installed a sump pump in my house to help with a water problem in my basement.
