Contacted to do a complete bathroom renovation. Removal of old bathroom was great. Installation of new was something else. Laid floor tile quite well. The tile surround in the shower is where most of my issue with the quality of workmanship comes from. The tiles were unevenly laid, there were holes in the grout, when a corner bead was replaced, it was not done well and now there is a mess left over. The faucet was installed too high from the tub which causes water to collect on the top of the tub when it is filled. When the acrylic tub was caulked, it wasn't caulked when the tub was full, so the first bath pulled all the caulking off. The vanity was also replaced. No care was taken to level it. I also had to repair a leak in the drain. Overall, the job started out well, but as it went on the quality of work decreased significantly. He did sustain a back injury in the time he was working on my project which lead to a long delay. The job was started before in November (2013), and he "finished" some work in February. In my opinion the job was never completed. After contacting Nicolaas regarding the issues, he made comments that he would come back and correct what he could, but then never contacted me again.
I do remember this job. Middle of winter. No proper place to set up water saw. Garage was the closest. Go outside for every cut. Freezing temperatures started out with poor quality tile, uneven in size. Customer was constantly interfering with the job as at one time he wanted the bathroom exhaust fan duct hooked up to a bathroom vent.
We've been very pleased with the work provided by Classic Home Maintenance. The work they did to upgrade our ensuite bathroom was meticulous and done with the best materials. When it came time to sell our home, all potential buyers mentioned how beautiful the bathroom was and ultimately, that made the difference between a buyer buying our home versus another potential home. In our new home, we continue to call upon Classic Home to provide us with the excellent service we've grown to expect.
