Noel Taylor

Pretty disappointed with Noel. Noel came highly recommended; however, I can not say he did a good job for me. Hired Noel to repaint an empty townhouse, for 5 days. At the end of the job, I saw a lot of areas just touched up not painted, and some areas not painted at all. Most of the ceiling were not painted even though they should have been, especially the bathroom ceiling. He was not thorough in patching the walls or ceilings or maybe he is just not good at it, as there were still dents and pin holes in the walls and ceilings. He tried to correct a crack on the stair well wall, but the crack is still visible.

He may respond to this review indicating that I bought bad paint, that the place was a real mess, and he did a lot of other things that I did not even thank him for. I bought the same paint that I initially painted the place in myself, the place was completely empty, dirty yes, but why would I clean before someone paints? He did come up with a great idea for the bathroom mirror and I got him the material the next day. He plastered some cement on the front door stoop, while it is better than before it is not good.

I am writing this review, because I expected a professional, and Noel seemed to be detailed when we talked through the place. I told him on many occasions if he needed anything just call. He never called. When my wife walked in as he was leaving, her first thought was that he didnt even paint.

I contacted Noel a week after he left and requested he come back to do some more touch up to which he replied I had trouble with the paint so if it is all the same please do it yourself When I told him I would send over pictures he said It will not change anything. The way he told me to go screw myself also makes me believe he has done this type of shoddy job before, he didnt show any care for his work or my satisfaction at all.
Noel seems like a really good guy, but he pulled the wool over my eyes big time.

I have used Noel for many different projects. Noel has repaired water damage to a skylight frame, built us a new front porch and recently he repaired cracks in walls/ceilings (and if you have an old house built in the 20's like me, this is a constant issue, so Noel is a godsend in that regard!), repaired damage to walls and ceilings caused by a crappy tiler in the bathroom, painted our living/dining room, bathroom and back area leading to the basement and fixed the weather-stripping on our front door. Noel is prompt and efficient and his fees are reasonable (also very hard to find in this day and age). I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Noel did an excellent job, both in designing the structure and in building it. He has a great sense of design - and his suggestions improved the project at several points.

We required a rebuild and reinforcement of an existing patio lattice roof and replacement of a support beam. Noel was prompt in his responses at initial contact, on time and open about the work and any unforeseen issues. He was precise, focused and entirely professional. The work is amazing, impresses everyone who has seen it. His thoughtfulness in the small details and personable manner were appreciated. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Noel and would most certainly use his services again.

Needed to do an accent wall with wainscotting. Noel did a great job. The wall looks amazing. Fast, clean, friendly.

This review is based on our experience of doing various renovation projects over many years with numerous tradespeople.

We found Noel to be very professional and reliable, offered great solutions to fix unforeseen problems, environmentally conscious in his use of materials and preferring to repair rather than replace whenever possible, and was just a pleasure to work with.

We would highly recommend Noel and would not hesitate to hire him again for future projects. After having less pleasant reno experiences in the past, it was such a relief to work with someone who takes pride in their work, is fair in pricing, delivers on promises and is a true craftsman.

We are so happy that we found Noel on Homestars! What a genuinely nice person to work with. Noel did exactly what we asked - he replaced our old rotted deck, tore down an old pergola, and then repaired parts of our fence while leaving what was still in good condition. Noels attention to detail was outstanding, and is obviously a reflection of his background in fine arts. I also appreciated the little things - like how courteous he was to our neighbours and how clean and tidy he left the work site each evening. The project came in on time and on budget, and at a fair and reasonable price. We look forward to hiring Noel again in the future.

Noel did a fantastic job in painting our house. He was professional, dependable, a good communicator and finished on time. I would definitely hire Noel again!

From the time Noel introduced himself online to me it was apparent he was excellent with communication which is key when you're trying to get work done that is weather dependent etc. He was professional, reliable, the work looks amazing and he pointed out small things that needed to be repaired and took care of them. He is honest and hard working.
Highly recommend

Noel was constant professional. Came to my house to assess the work that needed to be done within a day or two. He kept me well informed about any challenges or issues he encountered and offered great solutions. I would definitely recommend Noel for carpentry work, window and door installation or repairs, and general masonry work. I look forward to working with him again in the future.
