Contractor Mark and team completed basement bathroom reno in a century plus home. The bathroom to be replaced was cobbled together by a previous owner who used whatever odd bits and pieces he could put together with inappropriate building materials, poor craftsmanship, and definitely not built to code. A cracked shower stall leaked, flooding the floor with water and mud. Mark came up with a tentative plan but because of the poor workmanship didn't know for sure what he would find until he tore out the old bathroom. With considerable expertise, Mark was able to problem solve all of the difficulties that arose when retrofitting a bathroom in a basement with low ceilings with various beams and ducts to be considered. Other problems were also encountered (knob and tube electrical wiring to be replaced, flooding from rain through poorly sealed foundation with nowhere for the water to drain, to name just a couple of things with which he had to correct). The job ended up being much more extensive than previously planned but it was all work that needed to be done. Ever conscious of the cost, Mark was always looking for the most economical solutions seeking approval for any additional work or materials yet ensuring everything was done to code. Mark often provided extra materials he had free of charge. Communication with Mark was excellent. He got back to us within a reasonable amount of time, always ready to answer questions or to offer an update. It's clear that Mark takes pride in his company and is knowledgeable in all facets of building construction. I highly recommend DMD Renovations for big or small home renovation projects.
