I contacted Sebastien about building me a privacy fence & gate to keep my doberman safe in the backyard. This was right around another contractor took $450 from me & never showed up again, so I was quite weary, but Sebastien came across as a very ernest man, so we shook hands on the project. He is a master carpenter, and his love for woodwork is evident in the care he took to build something he is obviously happy about. In the end, he made us a beautiful sliding gate that will be the envy of my neighbours, I'm sure! Very please with the project, and definitely would recommend him.

Hi Mel,

Thank you for your review!

It was a pleasure meeting you and assisting in realizing your vision.
I appreciate the trust you placed in me, especially considering your previous negative experience.

Best regards,

Sebastien Gagné

I had to install a set of 12+ blinds when I moved. It would have taken me a whole day to do it myself, but Eddy was amazing. He took all of one hour to install the entire house over two floors.

we used this company upon our realtor's recommendation. they gave us an all-clear so we bought the house. a year later, only during renovations, we discovered that there were issues that they failed to catch at home inspection, the repairs of which would cost about $5000. I wasn't amused or impressed!

The work includes putting down a strip of paving stones at the front of the house & repairing the front door steps. The steps were decently done, but the interlock work wasn't. After one winter, the stones are coming loose, and it shouldn't be the case.

i had to travel overseas during the winter snowstorm and found them on kijiji. Wasn't sure if they'd turn up but they did, and did a good job too. will use them again.

We went to tile shoppe and got a marble jam for the bathroom. I ask the staff for a recommended size and he told me it is a standard size, and there are only two colors. When i gave it to my contractor, he said it was the wrong width - tile shoppe sold me a 4.5" when the standard should be a 6". I called them for an exchange but was told it's final sale and we just need to buy again. I think the store has a really high-handed way of handling customers. I can understand if they want a re-stocking fee, but this is absurd.

I had two cracks to the foundation in the basement that had to be repaired and I called for a quote. The company was comfortable enough to quote me without even coming by - and they honored their quote, too. They had a packed schedule and wasn't able to accommodate my preferred date, but their man came as appointed, on time, and finished the job within 3 hours.

I engaged Derek to come get rid of the hedges that were growing wildly in my front yard, as well as a small tree in the backyard. His rate was reasonable and he came by promptly when he said he would - something I appreciate, after dealing with contractors who don't even bother showing up, let alone on time! Derek does a decent job.

Ikea products are notoriously difficult to assemble so I didn't hesitate to look around for help when I needed new kitchen cabinets assembled. I found Lee on this website and engaged his services. He just finished my project, worked diligently, with a great sense of humor, and did it in just two days. Well done, hard worker, very pleasant experience!
