Atlantic Region Our Team   About Us: K.B. Clarke Division began in 1990 as a locally owned contracting company in Dartmouth, expanding our services to specialize in restoration upon becoming IICRC (Institute for Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration) certified. Ezi Way Division started in a similar manner in 1970 in Charlottetown, PEI. In time, our reputation for providing quality service and workmanship at fair but competitive prices prompted the opening of 5 other offices in the Atlantic Region. We built this reputation on the foundation that we give every project the same concern and professionalism, with a strong understanding of the disruption and devastation our customers face, and frequently, we work around the clock to expedite claims to have our customers back to pre-loss conditions as soon as possible. Our facilities include completely computerized offices and estimating programs, carpentry shops, deodorization rooms as well as large amounts of heated, humidity controlled storage and cleaning bays. All premises are fully alarmed, secure and very centrally located for adjusters and customers. Our Team: Kevin Clarke – President.
