Eric and Peter are perfectionists and the work they did was amazing! Everything was restored to exactly the original design.
They are on time, and clean up after every day which is great when as an owner you are living through construction and upheaval to your daily life,
I have recommended them to many friends. They are really the best in the area.
They do small jobs too which is very good as some companies only want the big jobs when the little ones matter too.
First off, I need to say that I have done over 15 commercial construction / renovations in my lifetime along with another 5 or so for my personal residence(s). Initially, my dream renovation on my 45 year old garage included a total renovation to the existing garage, a workshop and a breezeway. Eric provided me with an estimate for this extensive project and I decided it was a bit more than what I wanted to spend. When I met with Eric, he actually said that it may not be a terrific idea considering my situation. How often do you hear a contractor give you an opinion that under the circumstances, does not make sense? Rarely.
To start off, Eric came to the house and looked over what I thought my garage to be a lost cause. But, not so. The bones were still OK. So Eric proposed to shore up the existing structure and rebuild from there. The estimate provided was in great detail, which again is rare. I had two other estimates that were nowhere close to the detail I was looking for. Elora was not the cheapest nor the most expensive. Right in the middle. Folks, when you meet this man and speak to Laura, you will get a good gut feeling and that was all I needed to make my decision to go with Elora. As far as the work goes, I must say it was impeccable. This was a garage reno after all, but the attention to detail was way beyond my expectations. Eric's crew was polite, cordial and always very professional. From a financial perspective again, the estimate provided was bang on budget other than a few upgrades that I agreed to with Eric. I now consider Eric, Laura, Peter and the crew to be like friends to me. I would not even think twice about hiring them again for another project (heads up Eric) LOL. Seriously consider Elora for your next project. You will definitely not be disappointed. If you would wish to contact me personally for a reference please do so.

Thank you Elora for a wonderful experience.

Eric Visser and his team provided us with an exceptional renovation experience, from start to end. We transformed the main level of our house from the worst kitchen/dining room/living room in Windsor, to a spectacular experience. The construction began on time, and every sub-trade brought in completed their tasks with efficiency, courtesy, and professionalism. Eric managed the coordination between all and it worked very well. Inspections passed with ease. A project of this size has inevitable hiccups, and Eric was on top of all of them. Everything was resolved quickly, and Eric ensured effective communication, both digitally, and face to face throughout. My husband, a very finicky handyman himself, was pleased with the quality of the work and the skilled trades that came and went as expected. Eric and his team were a pleasure to work with! I've uploaded photos for the horrific before, pleasant during, and spectacular after effects to see the contrast with what was completed.
Excellent workmanship. I had a bonus room with an on suite bathroom and a walk in closet put on top of my garage in August/September this yr (2016). I had Elora do a few jobs at my home over the yrs so when we decided to do our addition we had no doubt who was going to do it for us. We have received many compliments since it has been completed. The most common compliment was "It looks like it was always there!" I mentioned that to Eric Visser (owner of Elora) and his simple comment was "That's how it's supposed to turn out." We are completely satisfied with our experience with Elora Contracting.
We had a 2 tiered deck put in and we were very impressed by Elora Contracting’s professionalism and dedication to their work.
Laura was the contact and gave such excellent advice that we could take it with us no matter what contractor we chose. Eric was the man with the design ideas that we loved and he was able to keep the cost within our budget. The crew was here every day until all was completed to perfection. We were so happy with all the extras that we observed – like vacuuming the lawn to pick up sawdust! The work, the cleanup, the competence was all A+. We will only deal with Elora Contracting from now on!
I was in the process of selling my house and the buyers home inspector noticed some issues that I was unaware of. I needed a new drywall ceiling, insulation and access hatch and it painted to look good.
Eric and his boys did a good job. Put up the new ceiling and finished it so it looked the the rest of the house. Attic hatch looked good and was sealed to prevent heat loss. Price was on target with the quote and the job was completed on time for my house to close. The buyer (and his inspector) were pleased with the work.
I would do work with Elora again without question.
