I am very pleased with the bathroom renovation, Everyone involved in the project did a great job. It was a pleasure having DK Conquest Construction do the reno, and I would definitely have them back when we decide to do the kitchen.
Great Work, Great People, Great Company.
Well, look no further!! DK Conquest was amazing. They listened to what we needed, and they provided. We are extremely pleased with the finished product. The fact that communication was constant was an important aspect to us. They were easy to work with, and we feel honest. We feel that the job was done like they'd like in their own home. For the little things that needed addressing, they were addressed and taken care of. We have other things we are looking at having done to our home in a long term plan. And we will be having DK do the work!
When our shower leaked into our playroom downstairs we knew we were in for a tough, and rather unexpected, renovation. Right from the start, DK Conquest Construction was top notch. Amanda was quick to get back to us and calmed our nerves. Faster than expected we had people in checking the situation, even the big boss DK, dropped by to make sure we were happy. Amanda was excellent about giving us updates on all aspects of the renos. Not only did they fix our shower, better than we could have expected, they made sure the ceiling in the playroom was properly fixed and painted. We were thrilled with the excellent service we received and would highly recommend DK Conquest Construction for any work needed.
We contacted DK conquest for an estimate while waiting for another contractor to call us back, it was the best decision.
The Cash Rating:
The appraisal price was fair compared to the other estimate we received. The office manager was easy to deal with. I was slow to confirm and needed to pick a new tile, the process was made as painless as possible and the estimate was upheld fairly in spite of my slow confirmation.
The bathroom rating:
Looks great. Trim, everything looks professional. There was an issue with some existing plumbing but even that was repaired at the end of the day that they committed to finishing.
To recap:
-Estimate was very close to being actual paid amount.
-Service from all involved was efficient and friendly.
-All repairs(including the unplanned one) were completed on schedule.
-The installer was friendly and professional. He also covered the carpets in all areas he passed with a disposable drop sheet.
The team worked organized and clean. The result is impressive and we are looking forward to work with them again. We got a lot of support for our construction from the management and his team. The team of DK Conquest Construction Inc. is highly skilled and we will recommend them to our contacts.
We hired DK construction to build our working ensuite in the showroom at The Ensuite, Emco. They did a superb job under a tight budget. I would definitely recommend them to customers. Amanda/Eric/Dennis are very friendly and easy to deal with.

DK Conquest Construction undertook my fairly complete condo renovation, which ended up being nearly 3 months of solid work. Dennis, the owner, and I conferred on a daily basis about what was being done, what I had to do by a certain date, like choosing materials, or if there were any glitches with incoming supplies or with his team. I think that my project went so well because I was actively involved and because Dennis is highly responsible and great at communication. No reno is complete without some kind of hitch; in my case a few broken tiles and mirrors, and a delay with the kitchen cabinets. I am pretty fussy, but thank goodness Dennis was able to rectify everything in a very timely manner. We had some issues with the quality of the paint at the end but again, that was completed to my satisfaction. The custom shelving his team built for the closets, the bathroom and the pantry are amazing! The floors were completed very quickly with excellent sound proofing. Dennis is calm and professional at all times This was my third and largest reno to date, and I am now enjoying living in a space that is perfect for me.
Thank you DK Conquest!
I have edited my original review to include more information compared to the original.
If you don't want to read the entire review, I've summarized it in 3 words. DO NOT HIRE!
Why? THEY QUIT MY RENOVATION HALF WAY THROUGH AFTER DEMOLISHING MY CONDO!!!
I hired DK conquest for a kitchen renovation (new cabinets, counter, sink, appliances, backsplash, the full deal), and to update the flooring and ceiling throughout my condo. A contract was signed between myself and DK Conquest. They started work in early January.
DK Conquest spent approximately 15 days working on my kitchen renovation throughout January. During that time, the demolition of the kitchen, flooring and ceiling was done. Once my condo had been thoroughly destroyed, DK Conquest disappeared for 2 MONTHS!!! Between January 29th and March 20th, they had workers in my condo for a total of 4 days!!! 4 days out of a total 35 WEEKdays! In those 4 days of work, 3 of them were spent installing the incorrect flooring underlay (which I had specified in the scope of work contract and with the contractor multiple times!). This actually moved my project backwards! I was constantly told they would "have people in later this week", but when I checked in daily, it was obvious no one had stepped foot in my condo (I have hundreds of progress & LACK-OF-PROGRESS pictures to document the entire timeline of my renovation).
I contacted DK Conquest multiple times throughout February and March to get to the bottom of why my renovation had come to a screeching hault after my condo was rendered unlivable. When I had enough of no progress being made, I told Dennis my renovation needs to start advancing otherwise I was going to find someone else to complete it, as well as explore legal options. The response I got was a call from Dennis telling me they would not be finishing my renovation.
THEY QUIT MY RENOVATION HALF WAY THROUGH AFTER DEMOLISHING MY CONDO!!!
In the approximately 15 days of work they did do, there were numerous screw-ups and poor attention to detail.
-Tile flooring was installed in a condo (obvious noise proofing needed) with the wrong underlay. The underlay was specified in the scope of work contract. It was also specified in emails and calls before and during the renovation.
-Kitchen counter was built at the wrong height even though I provided professional blueprints. (this was fixed after I pointed it out)
-The work crew unplugged my fridge and ruined all the food inside.
-I learned after they quit that nothing (counters, cabinets, sink, etc) was ever ordered.
-The furniture I could not relocate to a sheltered area was left uncovered and subsequently dirtied.
-Some of my furniture was placed outside onto an weather exposed open balcony. This furniture will likely need to be replaced.
-The bathroom, where no work was being done, was left open and subsequently dirtied.
-My personal towels were used to clean tools and equipment. They will need to be replaced.
-The work crew left my condo with the windows open in January and my temperature set to 30*C.
-Painting was the poorest quality I've ever seen. Dozens of places where ceiling paint was on walls, wall paint was on ceiling. I showed pictures to a painter friend from out of town and he just laughed.
-My original project manager quit half way through my project because Dennis was not allowing her to advance my project. (Dennis said she is "no longer working for DK Conquest" in his original rebuttal to my original review. Those are lies. She quit.)
-HORRENDOUS communication from the following 2 project managers. On multiple occasions I went weeks with no contact from anyone at DK.
-They left PILES of garbage in my condo and on my balcony.
-Did I mention THEY QUIT MY RENOVATION HALF WAY THROUGH AFTER DEMOLISHING MY CONDO!!!
Trust me, keep searching.
Ya my view is biased, but the results speak for themselves.
The pictures I've posted are the state of my condo after DK Conquest quit my project.
DO NOT HIRE.
This is one of those company growth issues. DK Conquest had grown very well due to our reputation. Unfortunately, this growth also affected DK Conquest. The management team on this project and others did not deliver the way DK Conquest has been successfully delivering for many years. DK Conquest offered an option to help but client's mind was made up, understandably. The management team is no longer working for the DK Conquest anymore and we will make sure people like these don't come in and infiltrate us any longer
We'd like to apologize to David and few clients that were affected by this issue.
We discovered water damage in an exterior wall in early December, 2016. DK Conquest was able to examine the damage, suggest a solution, provide an estimate and start work within days of us contacting them. Despite unusually bad weather, they rebuilt, insulated and boarded the wall before Christmas. Up to this point, communications by both the workers and office staff was excellent. However, the work was left unfinished with no indication of when it would restart after Christmas. After I called to inquire, work resumed in the new year and was finished well and quickly. Cleanliness inside during the work was a bit of an issue. Floors were only protected after I asked them to be and dust wasn't controlled as well as it could have been, but I take some responsibility for not making this an issue. Clean-up after the job was excellent. Overall I was very happy with the work the guys from DK did. I would definitely hire them again.
