Ptr Carpentry Inc.

We had the amazingly good fortune of finding PTR Carpentry's Paul through homestars. We had a very unique project of converting our split level home into a same level for wheelchair accessibility reason. It required the task of lowering half of the main floor by 2 feet to bring it to the level of the other half. Plus a lot of other complicated structural changes. The most challenging part being able to support the second floor before lowering and creating a new main floor with a seamless transition. In the process, also had to get rid of some patches of the foundation concrete blocks along the perimeter of the house while still maintaining the integrity of the structure. We also took away and moved around quite a few walls, some load bearing as well, on all floors and added a couple of dormers and also an elevator shaft. If not for a highly skilled framer, like Paul, it could have been a complete disaster. He had a thorough understanding of the engineer's drawings and patience and sensitivity towards our vision and needs for a wheelchair accessible house. Thanks to his remarkable skills, confidence, experience, a highly reassuring attitude and exceptional speed, the entire project was over in no time. He worked smoothly with other trades as well, handling even overall issues regarding the project. Our structural engineer and the Mississauga city inspector had nothing but high praises for Paul's quality work. They especially pointed out how the work was above and beyond the required building codes and how impeccably executed, not seen often. His working habits and ethics were exceptional and a pleasure to see in today's competitive construction industry. Him and his excellent crew were very reliable, always on time and worked hard nonstop. At the end of the day he would leave the site as clean and accessible for us as possible. Infact, he finished exactly on schedule and with so much more and extras that he absolutely did not have to include within his timeframe. His extensive knowledge and sound advice every step of the way was a lifesaver in our situation. We are very grateful and fortunate. Him and his crew were all the way professional, courteous, trustworthy and so very friendly and fun to work with. Our son especially enjoyed Paul's Facebook status updates with photos of our project, every so often. We simply can't say enough of good things about Paul's work and him as a person. We for sure HIGHLY RECOMMEND Paul and his crew. If it was possible we would rate him way over 10. After such a positive experience, without a doubt Paul will be our ONLY go to guy for our future projects. We also appreciate his honest and fair quotes. Thank you for everything Paul. Our home looks amazing thanks to you!
