Rob was the only one to respond positively to my request. Several businesses did not respond and another said my job was too small. Rob answered in a timely manner, requested more information and several photos to evaluate the job. He came up with a plan and costs that fit my budget. Set a date for work and he was on time and ready to work. Also had a few smaller jobs he was able to do for me at the same time. Very pleased with his work ethic along with what I felt was a fair cost for labour and parts supplied. I will be calling him again when I need future work. Definitely a person to contact for your projects.

Didn't take ownership of errors they made and left it as is. (The project is incomplete) Seriously, they just left it. Its been more than few months and no response from them. I've messaged on yelp and iMessage/sms, called, left voicemail but no response or call back. Wires are still hanging out the wall. Drilled incorrectly and haven't come back to finish the work. I was very easy going due to pandemic and their scheduling was constantly delayed. I took days off work and they didn't show and I was still patient and understanding. They even told me stories about other clients and how bad they are and how a lot of them are getting mad because work can't be done during lock down. Which I understood because there was a time frame where non-essential work was on hold but now I wonder if they talk about me to others clients? Feels very unorganized. Unprofessional. Shaneeza is very friendly but shouldn't be on the field. The hole Andy drilled from outside the house to the bedroom to run a ethernet cable was way too close to the edge of the perpendicular wall (Making it hard to put any wall plate on). Shaneeza was directing him. From outside - In. It should have been drilled Inside - Out, so space for wall plate and correct alignment for the conduit can be made. Maybe this feedback they can learn from? Dry wall damaged and didn't fix that either. Ethernet cable was not crimped so its just a useless cable coming in with no point of plug. Conduit used outside was also not planned properly and curved instead. (Drill points were not aligned). I provided them more work as they were willing to get other things done. I added more cost to myself so I can have someone clean up things. The filler they used for the HVAC vent on outside wall cracks and it was mixed with filling foam and soft cement. It fell out twice. They came back to fix it, but using same incorrect method. I had to get it fixed myself. Over all the price that was quoted for all the work and after everything was agreed upon they didn't complete it. They took more money than the work that was done and the remaining work wasn't finished. Camera weren't installed, wiring wasn't done for it either. On top of that. They were trying to steal other contactor's work (who was working in the basement) and trying to take over that project. Ironically saying "they can finish the project since the other contractor isn't". The irony to that is, the original contract kept his word, and it was only delayed due to materials but these guys are the one who didn't show up or finish their work. I was very excited. I was very happy. They talk the talk, but very little backing to their words. I am SO HAPPY that I didn't give them my backyard project that I am just starting up this week. I would have lost money there too. Project: - Fishing wires for ethernet cat6a to main office in basement - Incomplete (Cables not crimped, termination point useless) - Nest Doorbell installation - Incomplete, I purchased the parts they asked me but never installed it. - Nest Camera's - Incomplete, never installed it. They said they won't set it up and that's my job, and I agreed. I was happy to do that part on my own. None of it happened -HVAC intake and exhaust reroute - Completed but sealant used was incorrect and created holes in the wall that had to be resealed by myself. Total loss. Would I call them a scam? borderline yes. I think they are just very unorganized and will drop the project if they can't manage their own schedule properly. By conversation, they seem pleasant but their professional work and actual experience is very lacking. They should stick to what they know and not pick up projects they have no experience in.

I hired this company to do a variety of work around my house and I have been completely satisfied…read morewith both the quality of the work and the professionalism of the staff. Initially, I hired them to do some simple things like putting in a new toilet, putting up some window coverings and some small lighting fixtures. The work was straightforward, but it was done in a timely and effective manner. And the price was right as well. I decided to get them to do an overhaul of my front porch... and what a good decision it was. The work was excellent and I received several compliments from my neighbours. I even had a woman knock on my door and ask who did the work! Not sure if she followed up in getting them to do future work for her. Since then, I've had them put in some flooring, (in addition to a number of smaller jobs) and I've been very pleased. I'm glad I found them and will get them to do future work in my house.

While the price was right, you get what you pay for. We had a small section of hardwood installed…read more That was ok but the trim and 1/4 round were left a mess. Nails weren't filled in. Trim was left dirty and marked up. Caulking between trim and 1/4 round sloppy. Powder room pedestal sink removed and vanity installed. There was a space left between the old sink and new one and he had no intention of fixing it. Also, he had to remove the medicine cabinet and hang it higher. Dropped it and gouged the wood trim that goes around the middle of the wall. Claimed he didn't see it. It was pretty big. Left 2 little piles of sawdust behind the vanity from where he had to cut the trim. His caulking of the vanity and the wall was also sloppy. And he put caulking between the fake drawer and top of vanity where there was none before. It was an absolute mess! It took me hours to remove it. Even though he offered to return and fix them, I declined and fixed them all myself. His site claims he's licensed, but when I asked about plumbing, he told me he's not a licensed plumber. So, ask questions and make sure you know what he's capable of. Oh, forgot to mention the glue that was left in the main bathroom sink after the installation of the new fixture. More caulking in the bathroom, where the trim meets the toe kick. Looks horrendous. I mean, he's addicted to caulk.
