DELIVERING W WOW! for 30 Years
hile some destinies are etched in stone, Doug Lacey’s was chiseled in concrete. When he entered the concrete restoration business to combat musty, damp or leaking basement foundations in 1992 with his company, Protecrete Canada, he could never have imagined what it would become over the next 30 years.

Doug Lacey, president & founder
“Doug started the company basically as a one-man crew and then evolved to basement systems when he got into the waterproofing side of it,” says Mike Aasen, general manager of Doug Lacey’s Basement Systems. That one-person operation has since grown to support a staff of 30 employees who service southern Alberta residential property owners as well as occasionally insurance companies and structural engineers. It is the go-to company for clients from Ponoka down to the U.S. border and into British Columbia to the Saskatchewan border. What began as concrete repair quickly branched out to include waterproofing services, which brought a membership in the Basement Systems network and a name change to reflect the scope of the company’s services.
