Cliff and his team excavated and underpinned the basement of our 100+ year Toronto home. They basically created a basement out of nothing so we could expand the square footage of our small home.

There were many obstacles to this project from the start: the pandemic led labour shortage, unforeseen surprises with a house this old (pre-existing wall and chimney that needed to removed, compromised foundation, etc.), weather conditions, a tree that needed to be removed, bureaucratic obstacles created by a new, inexperienced city inspector, etc. Despite these delays, Cliff and his team completed the project with exceptional workmanship and professionalism.

Cliff, along with our engineer, made sure that no corners were ever cut and that the project was completed to the highest standards. We kept adding to the scope of the project (e.g. a walkout, heated floors, underpinning the existing small basement) and Cliff managed to complete all of these new requests despite his full schedule and other commitments.

Throughout this process, Cliff was transparent and honest. We never incurred unexpected costs that were never disclosed or any of the other unfortunate surprises that others we know have experienced with other companies.

It was not a quick and easy project, however, and there are still a few more items to complete before we can finish the basement and restore the landscaping, but these delays are understandably due to the unusual times we are living in and the non-standard nature of the house itself.

I would absolutely recommend Pegasus to friends and family. In fact, our neighbours are currently waiting for the completion of our basement to begin thinking about their own!

I would like to add that throughout this project, every member of Cliffs team was so polite and professional, that many of our neighbours made sure to let us know how wonderful they were. They helped clear the path and dig cars out after the devastating snow storm we had in the winter, for example, and always left the site clean and tidy.

Clifford and his team were exceptional in all aspects of this job. Pegasus underpinned our bungalow and front porch to the agreed height, and took care of all aspects of the job including inspections! His crew was here every morning on time and worked through the majority of the holiday season! Questions were always answered and problems, if any, worked through, not always easy when there is a family living above the work happening below. Were very happy with the end results!!

Clifford and his team were just what I was looking for. I kept hearing that you shouldn't trust just anyone with underpinning - - it's just too important and the company you work with needs to have true expertise in this particular field. For this reason I did a lot of research before settling on any one company for the job. Clifford was responsive from the beginning and I appreciated how quickly he was able to get me a quote. The price was competitive but the professionalism is what stood out the most. He displayed an openness that was reassuring and didn't hesitate to point out some important aspects about how he approached the work (from insurance to technique) that I could easily compare to the competition.

Schedule - when it came to the timing of the project he did exactly what he said he was going to do. The project was completed on time and without any drama whatsoever. Delroy was the main foreman for my job and Delroy takes such pride in his work and was happy to give me tours and explain things I didn't understand.

No Cutting Corners - when it comes to underpinning cutting corners seems like the wrong approach (both figuratively and literally). Clifford and his team did the work by the books and I really appreciated that. There were no delays occasioned by doing things the right way but some contractors will suggest that there will be. Every time we needed the city to come and inspect, they were there without delay (book it today and they are there tomorrow). Every time. My engineer was appraised of when he needed to attend and the visits were all on time and Clifford and his team always passed with flying colours. Doing it the right way gave me such peace of mind.

Nice people - it's nice to get quality work done and enjoy the folks you are working with (or the folks you have hired to do the job). From the first call to our last, I was grateful for how pleasant, calm and reassuring Clifford always was. Not to be taken for granted, Clifford!

I miss you and your team already. Thanks for doing all of the big and small things that made my project so successful. A resounding 10 stars for you and your team.

We started looking for a contractor that specialized in underpinning as we didn't want to take any chances and our project had some complexities. We met with 4 contractors and Clifford stood out as I could tell he could handle the job and priced the job fairly compared to other quotes I got.

I didn't want to go with the cheapest or the most expensive I wanted someone who could deliver on our expectations.

Clifford and his team worked diligently and came in on budget and on time which we were impressed with given the complexity.

Pegasus was professional and respectful of our space as we and our tenants continued to live in the home while they worked in the basement. Would recommend getting them to quote on your next underpinning project.

Cliff and his crew were great. They worked quickly and were very knowledgeable. It was a big project which included the following:
- Full basement underpinning. Height went from approx 6 feet to approx 8ft
- Escavation of basement extention with cinderblock foundation
- All new underground plumbing
- Replaced old wooden beam and masonry posts with steel

I am satisfied with the result and would recommend Pegasus.

Cliff and his team at Pegasus did an amazing job and very informative and helpful with any questions or concerns I had with my project. Highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for underpinning or foundation work. Great company to deal with.

Cliff and his crew (Dan, Lincoln, Bernard) did a fantastic job underpinning our 100+ Yr old semi detached in East Toronto. While COVID and the lockdowns provided its challenges and delayed the start of our job, Cliff and his team worked very quickly and diligently to complete our job in 8wks (Christmas holiday inclusive). This was our second major project with Pegasus and we’ve been thrilled with the results on both.

There were several challenges with our job, most notably with difficult access to the basement (for dirt removal) and lack of space for a disposal bin. While many other underpinning companies simply told us straight up that they couldn’t give us a quote or work with such restrictions without egregious cost, none of these challenges posed an issue for Cliff. He and his team always found a way to get it done.

Additionally with the COVID induced shift to online learning for schools, Cliff had to schedule work around our neighbors who had children learning during school hours. Not only was he and his team able to accommodate, but it did not slow down the completion of the job.

All in all, I would wholeheartedly recommend Cliff and Pegasus for any concrete foundation or underpinning work. We’ve been extremely satisfied with their work on both of our projects at our current home.

We hired the Pegasus team to take on the underpinning and drainage of a 100 year old house. The team did an incredible job bringing the project in on time, on budget and navigating any little issue that arose throughout. I highly recommend.

Cliff was a pleasure to work with.

Until the pandemic hit, his crew were ahead of schedule. Unfortunately our project dragged on due to Covid restrictions and shut downs, but eventually it got completed and done right.

I got several quotes for the project and Pegasus was not the lowest or the highest, but came with a great reputation.

I’m glad I went with them, and will be asking them to quote another project for me at a different property as such.

I would recommend Pegasus to my friends and colleagues who need any type of underpinning work done.

The Pegasus team was a pleasure to deal with right off the bat. Professional and helpful in all my interactions. The work was done safely and correctly. Any issues during the project were resolved quickly and efficiently with full transparency. Thanks Pegasus!
