Terrible...walls leaning outward by 2" over 96"/. Contractor, Ryan...seldom on location to supervise. Wrong sill gaskets. Garage door header..west end..not level. Contractor seldom available. Workers unsupervised by contractor..Could not pass any building inspections.
Project Contract signed in early April, 2017...It is now July 14...perhaps half way done in over 4 months since signing the contract. Do not hire this contractor! I have all necessary evidence to substantiate my comments. When he was part way completed, he asked for more money which we provided to him in order to continue the project. He and his workers stopped showing up after he received $8,000.00 from us.We ended up hiring another contractor to finish the project and had to pay out another approximately $8,000.00 to the new contractor. Won a court judgement against him as he failed to appear in court. After court and legal costs, he now owes us over $8,000.00. He agreed to pay and provided 12 post dated cheques, (one for each of the next 12 months)
His first cheque for $734.90 went through in July without problems. Subsequent cheques have been returned with the remarks, "Account Frozen/Not Cleared". After having read reviews from others, it is obvious that taking money from his clients and not returning to perform the work or responding to phone, email and text messages, is a standard practice for Mr. Caswell. Please avoid this contractor at all costs. We are taking him back to court again and expect that he will fail to appear again. After reading some of the other reviews, one can only consider his actions as fraud and we hope the court agrees after our next hearing and places him under arrest.
After many years of having an open back yard, we decided to close it in this year to avoid my 2 year old son from running to the road. There weren't too many companies interested in completing our 'little' project but Ryan at Caswell Contracting was willing to help us out.
.....WOW!! It's amazing! He saw my yard, he saw my son, he saw my vision... to the point, I didn't know it was going to be so AMAZING!!!! I cannot thank Ryan and his team enough! I love it and my family can now enjoy the summer together in the yard!
Thank you for your help!

SATISFIED CUSTOMER!!!!
I needed a basement apartment built, and the quotes I was getting were way over my price range. I tried using the Trusted Pros website and had about six people come and quote the job. The prices ranged a bit, but not much. The frustrating thing was that I knew there were other ways to do certain things that would be more cost effective, but the other contractors weren't really willing to find creative ways to do a good job, for less money. Then Ryan from Caswell Contracting came and he listened to what we wanted done and also what we were able to spend. He came up with different options and listened to our ideas.
He was very friendly, knowledgeable and flexible in his approach. The price he quoted us came in substantially lower than the others, which was a huge relief for us! We then kept our fingers crossed that it didn't mean he would have hidden fees and or do a poor job. Another huge relief; the price was the price and it never went up. He also did an AMAZING job! It is even better than I hoped for and he has a good eye for detail. Everyone that sees it is in awe of how good it looks and they say that the bathroom is, by far, the nicest bathroom in the house. He made me a wet bar, bathroom with an egress window and beautiful wooden window well, walk-in closet, living room / bedroom area and best of all, he soundproofed the walls and ceilings! Even my Italian in-laws had to admit that it looks incredible! Hats off to Ryan Caswell for making it look even better than I had hoped for, and at half the cost of the other guys. I would highly recommend Caswell Contracting to anyone who needs work done, and you can see the work he did for us on his website - I sent the pictures to him so that he can post them.

Caswell Contracting has received complaints from their suppliers and/or creditors and employee and/or sub-contractor complaints
Complaint: I had worked as a sub contractor for Ryan Caswell for 2 weeks, amounting $900 which is still owed to me from work done in February in Angus and Alliston. 10 or more phone calls to him for reciprocation are ignored. I need to be paid for my time at his jobs.
Complaint: Ryan hired my company to do work for one of his customers. We took a deposit and in good faith proceeded to install product. Ryan has ignored countless phone calls, emails. I will file court papers today. I never post negative comments as most people given the chance will pay what they owe, in this case we can"t even get a reply. Its a shame because it looks as though he does really great work.
