Lindeman Contracting

I could not be more pleased with the quality and professionalism of Lindeman Contracting. They made what is normally a stressful process, worry free. The bathrooms turned out better than I could have imagined.

In a area that is Famous for Contractors not showing up or calling to cancel an appointment, It was a breath of fresh air to deal with Francis and his crew. From the start it was obvious that they cared about the quality which they provided. They Showed up every Day to the Job and on time. Francis and his crew were all Very respectful and highly professional at all times.

Along the way there was some custom work we wanted done that wasn't quoted for but Francis had no problem fitting these extra jobs into his work schedule.

I have never seen my wife so happy with the results of her new kitchen and living room. We had another contractor in to do the Bathroom years ago and it was nothing but a nightmare. (3 Months to complete)

I would recommend Lindeman Contracting to anyone looking for a Great product, Professional workers and up front prices.

Thank you Francis for a terrific Job.

Francis and Kyle provided prompt response to quotes, starting projects within time period requested, showed up at exact time booked and completed projects within time period promised. There work is beautiful! Kyle has amazing skills with everything! His work with our backsplash and any projects that require fine detail was awesome to watch. Francis woodworking skills when he built our wall unit made me speechless. Organization of his team and onsite monitoring of daily work made my husband and I so comfortable throughout the whole series of projects.

I believe you will be very pleased with their work!

Francis and Kyle were excellent to have working for us they shower up every day from eight to five answered all questions and gave excellent advice to enhance the reno. His final bill was very close to the estimate give with a detail explanation on the bill itself. Would highly recommend them for any household renovations top quality work very professional.

Lindeman Contracting review.

I recently completed a home renovation involving significant changes to our kitchen, washroom and laundry room along with the addition of a hall closet and master walk-in closet and laundry room combination. I hired Lindeman Contracting for the renovations and was very happy with the attention and commitment that Francis Lindeman and his partner Kyle in completing the job in a timely manner and keeping to a tight schedule we had established. I was particularly happy with Francis and Kyles scheduling they always arrived on time and worked diligently to complete the tasks. Kyle was focused on completing all the plumbing and bathroom changes including tiling while Francis focused on the framing, electrical and adding the shiplap to the ceiling which turned out fantastic. The bathroom remodel consisted of expanding the size of the bathroom increasing the ceiling height adding a new large soaker tub and vanity as well as building a custom shower stall. Although the plumbing was complicated Kyle handled the task with expertise. The structural work for the framing required the addition of a beam to allow for a closet opening and was completed without incident and maintaining the structural integrity of all load bearing walls. Francis provided valuable advice with respect to design which produced a better outcome. We had some limitations fitting the new bathroom fixtures due to the size of the bathroom and Francis was able to reframe the room in a manner which significantly increased the bathroom size allowing for proper placement of the fixtures and creating a spacious well-organized bathroom. The job also consisted of demolition and installing porcelain wood looking tiles which created a good looking resilient floor throughout the kitchen bathroom and laundry room.

I had several contractors bid on the job but I found Francis’ experience and understanding of what I wanted to accomplish advantageous as he would handle all the requirements without having to hire and manage additional contractors. I would recommend anyone looking to do a major renovation consider using Lindeman Contracting as they were easy to work with, and reliable tackling the job without excuses or limitations. Lindeman Contracting also managed to stay within the budget completing everything as required.

I want to thank Francis and Kyle for a Job well done.

Thank you

Highly recommend! Would use again!

We had Francis convert a 2 piece bath to a 3 piece bath, completely gut and redo the other 2 baths, add and change locations of a few walls, and hang all new doors and trim out. His crew also did the finishing work of tiling, painting, etc.

His quote was clear and detailed and he honored it.

We found numerous problems in the house (from the former owners and original construction). Francis informed us each time - and the additional work was completed for a very fair cost. I'm actually very happy to have found the problems - as they were quietly there, and now my cottage is dry, and safe (and we don't have to worry about future damage). His crew were lovely to work with. Helpful, and flexible. I did make a few changes and added items on (outside of the quote). Francis was completely open to working with us, and accommodated our changes with a clear outline of cost differences. The crew was also super-tidy. We were using our cottage on the weekends while the construction was underway. He planned his job around completion points that would allow us to continue to use and enjoy the cottage on our times up there, and they cleaned all the construction materials up and packed away tools, so that the cottage was safe for our kids and dogs.

Great crew. Great experience. Great outcome.

If you have had experiences with bad contractors including not showing and poor workmanship, Francis and his team are not one of them!!! Showed up on time, completed the work quickly and great results. We are very pleased and would recommend them or use them again in the future!!

Thanks again!

Thank you Francis at Lindeman Contracting for your prompt, professional and efficient workmanship!

My husband and I recently bought a new home and had to coordinate the painting to be done weeks before closing and moving in. From the initial phone consultation, Francis was very kind, professional, patient and understanding of our circumstance. He was able to quote the job (approximate), and secure the time to meet and work with us before even seeing the project, which brought us much comfort and peace of mind- knowing that our home would be painted immediately once receiving our keys.

Francis was very accommodating, flexible, and helpful during the entire process. He gave us options along the way (as we were trying to be cost-efficient) and tips on other jobs. It is obvious that Francis is very experienced and knowledgeable based on the amount of attention paid to detail and his willingness to teach and share.

Francis and his team were efficient, hard working and completed the job sooner than we had expected, which gave us ample of time to prepare for our move in.

Francis and team are very courteous and overall did an amazing job. I feel we have established a working relationship with Francis and look forward to hiring him again as we continue to renovate and do updates to our new home in the future.

Lindeman Contracting Inc. Review

We hired Francis to clean and re-stain our almost three-year-old cedar deck. He produced an estimate promptly, and was able to start work less than a week later.

He and his assistant arrived on time, and worked through to the afternoon to prepare the deck for staining. During the course of working, Francis pointed out that the deck boards had been placed flush, one right up against another, so there was no room for drainage. The dirt he power-washed from the boards was almost algae-like! He suggested that it would be better for the structure, and the expensive wood, if the boards were re-laid, with an appropriate gap between each one. We agreed.

In the meantime, staining went ahead the following day. It already looked so much better!

Francis adjusted his schedule so that he could come back the following week to re-set the deck boards. It was an all-day job, but he has high standards (as do we!), and insisted it be done properly. Each board had to be hand-sanded along its edges due to the mold/algae-like growth. He also took it upon himself to re-stain the hand rails at each side of the deck. He felt that one coat of stain still left the surface too rough. After giving one small corner of the deck a second coat, just to see how it would look, he felt a second coat all over would be best for the appearance and health of the wood. There was no question, this was the way to go.

Again, he juggled his schedule to come back two days later and apply a second coat of stain. It looked terrific! He also took it upon himself to redo the step in front of the deck, which had been badly constructed. Those boards were also re-set with the appropriate space between them.

In all, the job took longer – and was more expensive – that we had initially expected, but it was totally worth it. We felt we were finally in the hands of a complete professional. Francis has a very strong work ethic, and believes that his work reflects his values. We’re delighted he feels this way – it’s a rare quality, in our experience. We intend to hire him again (in fact, more than once!), and feel confident in his skill and professionalism!

My husband found Francis Lindeman on-line and we are ecstatic with the results! This was our first renovation and we had reservations of finding the right contractor. Francis was concise,organized and very personal. He is incredibly talented, finishing our basement right on-time, and on budget as promised. He listened to our needs, and was very accommodating to any changes we made along the way. He shared his knowledge and gave us some suggestions that worked very well for our barn-board wine cellar/entertainment section. Every day they arrived on time and left each day leaving the job site very clean and tidy. Francis & Meegan are a father/daughter-team that works hard to achieve superior results and we will recommend them to all our friends & family!
