General Contracting

We are a multi facetted outfit. We will handle all your constriction jobs. big or small. We handle roughly 95% of all trade tasks in-house. That means you mainly see just me and not multiple unknown trades. I have a small group of professional trades; Electrician, HVAC, Kitchen, Architect, Engineer.

Kitchen Renovations

we handle the entire project. we do not hire lots of trades, 5% would be the kitchen company, counter tops, electrician, HVAC if required. all the rest is done and controlled through myself with our client. We can design any kitchen and make it fit to all dimensions of your space.

Bathroom Renovations

Can turn that older dated bathroom into an oasis of your dreams. That is the truth. we will help you design it, demo, rebuild and hand back to you clean and ready to use.

Fencing

We also do fences. a fence I built in 1990 lasted till this past summer (2022) when it was changed out for a newer design but stood for 32 years. We have a process that allows us to get the posts into the ground correctly and in line, level and looks great. A fence is expensive so it must be built.

Decks

We build any deck you can think of. structurally sound and if permits required, we have a designer who can get your ideas onto a permit ready drawing. We also do fences. a fence I built in 1990 lasted till this past summer (2022) when it was changed out for a newer design but stood for 32 years.

My reports are honest and fair.

Overview Continued

Overview

We have been in business since 1985 and have had many successful years of additions, renovation, remodeling, trouble shooting concerns, new home construction, retro fitting older homes etc. We only provide fair and honest service. This is easily stated by many but has been the corner stone of my career.

I have the "Ontario Building Code" Part 9 and 12 by the ministry of Housing Ontario, BCIN # and full knowledge of "Tarion Warranty Corporation". I was part of their team for 8+ years. 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.
