We are extremely happy with the work done by Giardino Contracting. Mark was able to fit our small job in quicker than we anticipated and was reliable and on-time. Communication was a priority for him. Sat down with us to review the contract in detail and we were so pleased that it stayed on budget. Quality work and always cleaned up at the end of each day. Kept our project on the timeline and we couldn’t believe the transformation! Hope that Mark is available for future projects around our home!
Thank you so much Wayne for the wonderful review. I m glad to see that you recognize and appreciate how we like to conduct our business. We take a lot of pride in all of our projects. It was very nice to meet and do business with you. Yes of course, please give me a call anytime. Mark
Mark was definitely our saviour, we were renovating a whole house with 2 apartments the lower level had been completed by another contractor but when it came to the upstairs unit that contractor abandoned us, so in a panic we contacted Mark which was the best thing we could’ve ever done. As busy as he was he fit us into his busy schedule and got to work. The apartment looks amazing, Mark added his own touch and made great suggestions along the way. Kept us in touch every step of the way. He even ended up fixing a few errors from the previous contractor and saved us from having a flood in the basement. I can go on about Mark and the great work he does. If you hire Mark for any work. You will not regret it. I sure didn’t.
I really enjoyed working with Mark because he listens when you describe what you have in mind and offers reasonable suggestions based on his vast experience. He is qualified in so many fields (electrical, plumbing, flooring, painting, construction, remodelling, inspections, etc) that you save time and money. He is skilled, precise and careful in his work. I believe his billing was reasonable and fair.
I would recommend Mark without any reservations.
Back in mid summer of 2019 I contracted Mark and his son Joseph to build a pergola of some sort on my back patio.
At the time I had a vague idea of what I would like to have done but didn’t know how to bring those ideas to fruition without the help of Mark. I gave Mark some reference pictures and he got quick to brain storm a couple designs that would fit my desires and could accommodate my budget at the same time.
He took me to a special lumber mill, “The Wood Shed” in Smithville with their ginormous selection of different wood species. I selected this orange Douglas Fir, it had such a great smell.
Great guys! Professional work, and truly a smooth experience.
Mark and his associates are friendly, dependable and offer quality work. My home renovation was quite extensive with walls removed, a door sealed up, flooring, kitchen and 2 bathrooms replaced. Quotes were very accurate.
When contracting Mark, there may be a wait time as he is working on other projects but once you are slotted in, work proceeds on schedule until completion.
Start to finish, the process was smooth and professional. From the concept to the final details, Mark made the process very easy. Communication was excellent and timing was great.
It was a pleasure having Giardino General Contracting take of my kitchen project for us.

I can provide detailed home inspections for selling and new prospective purchases. I service new homes, resales existing and consultation for builders. I have been a negotiator for difficult situations where I am the go between for homeowners and builders. I deal with engineers, fire departments, City officials and lawyers.
I have down sized my operations and look forward to only handling 2-3 jobs simultaneously and to stay in the Niagara Region. This way i can focus more time to projects, my client and less time to running around managing. Im never satisfied until my client is. That is just the way i have been taught. My father was a custom builder and always put the client before his profit.
Give us a try, you will will find us very worth while.
