We selected Renos Group for an extensive renovation; fully finishing approximately 1000 sq ft of empty basement, as well as a mixed hardwood/carpet installation on our upper bedroom level.
Our requirements were quite extensive, as we wanted several functional areas downstairs. Namely, a 3 pc bath, wet bar, soundproof studio, and 5 additional spaces (craft room, home gym, home office, entertainment room and furnace/storage). It sounds like a lot (and it is), but based on our design, with some slight modifications as things progressed, we now have some awesome spaces for our family.
Keiths detailed quotation was a breeze to evaluate, and the only discrepancy between the estimate and the final cost were due to additions, changes and upgrades we made as the project progressed. These items were all well identified on the final tally, so once again, it was a breeze to review.
I think that its important to note that we were also living 12,000 km (and 12 time zones) away while all of this was being done ! Although our adult son and his partner were in the house to assist with logistics on site, Keith was very communicative with each of us and ensured we were apprised of every step along the way, raising questions or concerns immediately, and providing feedback on progress and solutions. Professional, yet personable, Keith and his team made us feel comfortable every step of the way.
There were a few standout items that really showed off their talents. Keith and his team did a great job creating a studio space where I am able to record and perform music without the audio interfering with other occupants. The level of sound and vibration has been reduced tremendously, and as a bonus, I also have 220VAC available for some of my foreign equipment.
We were also looking for a solution to take advantage of wasted space under the stairs. Based on some examples we found online, they created a large, 2 door, pull-out pantry, as well as a seating nook with power and a tea mug/smartphone shelf that one may curl up in to read, or even just to peruse the bookshelves directly opposite.
And all of this was completed in spite of material shortages, supply chain issues, and social distancing requirements during some of the worst periods of the pandemic. We were also lucky that we had an extended deadline, so Renos were able to easily manage our expectations. All in all, just a fantastic job.
I heartily recommend Keith and Renos Group for any work that needs to be done in your home.
