Well it has been just over a year since we had our home fully renovated using Keith from Eastview Homes. Roughly ($350,000 +)
I could go on and on about the dissatisfaction of our dealing and quality of workmanship we received, however if the reader of this review is thinking of renovating, I would gladly share our experience along with the many factual Photo's and video's we have.
I would also share some tips and pointers I have learned in making sure you select in my opinion a good contractor and must needed items to clarify when contracting through a contractor.
Unfortunately in todays fast and moving housing market I believe that there is very little if any accountability on the contractor who are trusted to build your "Dream House". Therefore, I want to be able to help people in making sure they do not fall into the "Dreaded Build". (I will not charge anyone and I am not a business)
I am not a contractor or a tradesman but I did learn a lot, unfortunately from the negative interaction and numerous deficiencies throughout our build and the year after.
We ended up paying extra money to have other trades repair the work that was poorly done by Eastview Homes but in the end it was definitely the better decision we made.

- Company Response
Mr Balice - we are "surprised" to read your comments considering we worked hard to meet your every expectation, including having our service manager (dean) return and personally attended to any deficiency regardless if it was a result to the original 40 year old home construction / workmanship.
At closing of our work both you and julia provided us an email stating your satisfaction and thanking us for having dean attend to all deficiencies.
points of interest:
.eastview was invited to quote and complete the renovation
.eastview was not responsible for designs, working drawings or building permit

.mr balice advised us on numerous occasions of his trust issues, where at the end of the project he told us, he had been secretly recording us and our conversations
.mr balice was the acting general contractor / site supervisor
.eastview work was accepted and approved of by all building inspectors
.project value was $255,800in closing, we apologize for failing to meet your expectations. We hope to learn from this and move on.
