Luke did a great job on the basement apartment in Newcastle. Quality was top notch and he communicated well and was transparent throughout the entire process. Covid made the time line extend because of material shortages, but that's something that couldn't be helped.
I would definitely recommend carpenters mate, and I will use them in the future for my renovation needs.
Thanks!
Thanks for your review James. Challenging times call for a greater degree of attention to detail and planning. Thanks for your patience.
We felt comfortable leaving our home for several weeks while Luke completed the reno. Luke took his time going through each step of the reno with us and throughout the process he texted me pictures to show the progression of the project. Luke and Bob did an amazing job transforming the main and second floor of our townhouse into a home we are proud of. Luke and Bob are friendly, professional and take pride in their work with attention to detail. We were so impressed with the whole process and end result that we asked Luke to come back to renovate our unfinished basement.
Luke and Bob did an awesome job renovating our dark and dingy basement. We now have a beautifully finished laundry/washroom, a furnace room with plenty of storage and a beautiful and cozy family room that enjoy spending time in. We also had the stairs capped and a new electrical panel installed. All of the trades workers were polite and respectful. I highly recommend CMCD.
Thanks for your wonderful review Jan. It was exciting to see your reactions when you returned home to your newly renovated house. The Basement was a huge transformation!! We hope you enjoy your new outlet for the "Leg Lamp" at Christmas.
CMCD did an excellent job with the renovation of the lower level in our home. Luke had some great suggestions with our initial consultation, and sent us an a design image of what it would look like. It was exactly what was delivered, plus a couple extra's we asked for mid-job. We are very happy with the end product, and are working with CMCD on another project as well.
Thanks for your review John. We really enjoyed creating your new spaces. Swapping the laundry room and bathroom added the space necessary to add the shower. We look forward to completing the next project.
One stop shopping. We picked our cabinets from IKEA and purchased new appliances and kitchen fan. Luke took us out one morning for a couple of hours to pick out flooring, tiles, backsplash, counter top, and cabinet handles. We also had our stairs capped.
All was taken care of, electrician, plumber, etc.
Very pleasant to work with.
Because the work was during winter months, our snow was cleared!
I would highly recommend Carpenters Mate.
Thanks Carmela! The kitchen looks fabulous. We look forward to working with you in the future.
Luke, Bob and Greg were wonderful to work with. Plus the other professionals they brought in for plumbing and Electrical. From the beginning to the end of the project we were very comfortable with the process and felt they listened to all of our ideas and made them come to life. The work is done with incredible care and professionalism.
They cleaned up every day to keep the mess to a minimum.
I would highly recommend this company and will use them again for any future projects.
I found Luke and Co after an exhausting online search and multiple contractors ohhhhing and awwwwwing and the scope of a main floor overhaul including the removal of a load baring wall ! Being in the industry in the past, I felt more than comfortable after that first meeting, they were able to answer all of my inquiries and had a 3D rendition with estimate within a week !
Luke, Bob and Greg were awesome to deal with .... they were super accommodating as I’m a shift worker who works days/nights .... and some days sleeping during the day in the basement .... you’d have no clue there was a construction zone one floor above.
At the end of every day the job site was cleaned and they made a conscious effort to make sure nothing dangerous was kicking around as there would be 3 kids travelling between the basement and 2nd floor !
As with any big job .... surprises arose when opening 30 year old walls ... and changes were made multiple times .... Luke was always communicating with us and with a little bit of brainstorming and creativity made sure everything went smoothly and that we were happy !
Now the part that amazed me the most .... THE MONEY !
With such an extensive remodel .... There were changes ..... multiple changes .... and I still don’t know how he did it .... but we ended up a lot closer to budget than I thought was even possible !
And with that, their quality of work, expertise and professionalism they will be the first people I contact for the next job !
Thanks guys

Luke and his team saved our reno. We had work done by another carpenter first. That carpenter took 6 months longer than scheduled, submitted no permits to the city, and left the job so poorly done that when Luke and his team arrived they basically had to start fresh. Luke's team completed the work in 2 months, were never late to site, had all of the permits pulled and signed on time, and the quality of their work was outstanding. I will never use another carpenter again.
Luke from Carpenters Mate exceeded our expectations renovating our main bathroom. It was a total remodel , changed everything including removing our bathtub and converting into a standing shower with custom glass door and custom vanity. He and his crew were patient and accommodating with our adjustments to the design and the auxiliary trades used- electrician,plumber were licensed and highly rated trades. They were professional and respectful and left the job site clean and safe at the end of each day.
We are planning to do our master bathroom this year and main floor and kitchen renovation and will definitely be calling on Carpenters Mate to help us.
We met Luke and Bob when they were renovating in our daughter's house. We liked their open attitude, listening to ideas and providing ideas. They were easy to work with and completed the work project on time. I like that they take pride in their workmanship.
We hired Luke to do our Basement renovation, (Paint, flooring, doors and trim/baseboards) right from the first visit for our quote he was very friendly and easy to work with and also very understanding of our timeline and of our budget. Luke and his team put a lot of pride in their work and it shows in the final product, we are so happy with it! I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again and I would recommend them to anybody looking for a contractor!
