Grindstone Renovation & Contracting Inc.

Tom and his crew have helped turned our little renovation into a reality. Dealing with an older home where there isn't a square or plumb wall to be found, they worked their magic and left us with a perfect canvas to turn into a brand new living space.

His communication is amazing... response to an email or text is usually within minutes if not seconds.

I would highly recommend Grindstone for your drywall and insulation project.

I'm the project manager for MPB Construction and I use Tom all the time. Good pricing, good work, and gets the job done as scheduled.

We contracted Grindstone renovation & contracting to lead and be responsible for our project in Port Coquitlam. (Rindall Ave. Port Coquitlam, B.C)

After receiving several bids/quotes from other companies we chose Grindstone renovation & contracting to lead our project in Port Coquitlam because of how professional, knowledgeable and reasonable they were since the very beginning.

They drywall the entire 5000SF. property from top to bottom including ceilings and even came back several times to do touch ups after we made last minute changes.

Without a doubt in mind they worked around our dynamics, understood our challenges and met every requirement and deadline given.

We are more than please and can’t thank them enough for their patience’s, punctuality and dedication while working in our show home. We are most definitely use their expertise and skills again when we are ready for drywall phase in our 75 town house project.

Tom,

thank you and your team at Grindstone renovation & contracting for everything!

Best regards!

Good quality work that was completed on time and on budget. Very responsive and timely when addressing deficiencies with no push back or complaints. Service was friendly and courteous and communication was excellent which is unusual for most trades. I would highly recommend Platinum Touch Drywall.

We hired Tom and his crew this fall to drywall our brand new showroom and warehouse. It was a fairly big job with high ceilings and a lot of corners. They have done a very nice job. With the scale of the project we expected there may be a few little imperfections that would be missed along the way. Even after settling up the invoice with Tom he was more than happy to come back and do little touch ups to insure everything looks good before paint. I would recommend getting a quote from Tom for your project.

Kind regards

Tom is not someone to be trusted. Don't pay him before he's completely finished deficiencies because he promised to come back after I paid him in full, and never did. Worse, he agreed to pay the painter's extras to complete his contracted work, and then refused to. Then he stopped returning my calls or answering my repeated emails. The quality of the workmanship was bad for about 15% of the job and I spent thousands of dollars finishing it properly.

Addendum: The contractor's rebuttal is filled with lies. I was warned by a painter who quoted my job, that on another project, the owner ran into deficiencies and quality issues with Tom and she advised me to keep a holdback until the painters had completed their prime coats. I trusted Tom when he said he'd come back if there were issues, and I paid him in full on the day they claimed to be completed. When serious issues where discovered, Tom said he was too busy to even come and take a look, and he instructed me to pay the painters to do it as extras that he would reimburse me for. He balked at the cost, accused everyone of trying to rip him off, yet never came to see the scope of the work even after I communicated the details. See the quality of his work for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z20UlQRgbZM&feature=youtu.be (which looked even worse in person)

And for the record, I'll address some of the lies in Tom's rebuttal with simply the facts: It was 3 years ago, not 5. This is the first review I've done. It wasn't $3000, as a gesture of goodwill the painter dropped his hourly rate for the junior guys to $25 to come in at $2000, and then I agreed to pay half which Tom accepted (I have emails). Then Tom never paid and ignored all my attempts to contact him, including an email where I threatened to share this experience on review sites (which I'm doing now as I complete the project - which includes drywall deficiencies due to poor workmanship - Tom was invited to come and take a look but has ignored it). I never met the painter in my life before my project - he was a referral from a friend who is a painter, and the Tom came up with a conspiracy theory that I was trying rip him off when he didn't even bother coming to see how much work was required to fix the mess he made of my 12 foot ceiling (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z20UlQRgbZM) and the hundreds of drywall screw dimples (of which there are still lots to see).

Quick to come and give me a quote. And quick to start to keep me on schedule with completing my Reno. Once they arrived they had it hanging in no time at all. The taper was quick and quite

I would recommend them to anybody.

We had a great experience with Tom and his team at Platinum Touch Drywall. The finished results are wonderful and everyone who worked on our house was friendly, on time and they cleaned up at the end of the job. The price was good and so is their work.

Tom from Platinum Touch Drywall gave us a really fair price. His team was great and well experienced. They showed up on time and finished the job within the schedule promised. He even sent his clean up crew to completely clean up behind them. When my painter came to do the painting, he commented on what a nice job the drywallers did, which makes his job look even better. I would recommend Platinum Drywall to anyone.

I am a contractor and have used many drywallers and it's so nice to find a company so professional, well experienced and charge a fair rate for their work.

I have used Tom from Platinum Touch Drywall on numerous projects from small repairs to new construction houses and have always been extremely appreciative of his workmanship from his attention to detail to the clean up. He has always been on budget and very fair with pricing. I have recommended him to many friends and family and have always been complimented with his workmanship.

We needed someone to helps us finish our basement renos quickly. We called many people and Tom was the only one who got back to me right away and provided a reasonable quote in a timely manner. They arrived at a decent time each day, always providing me with an ETA each time they came out and always touched base regarding the next day's work. They were quick, professional, and clean. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone and if I have more renos in the future I will be giving him a call.

Platinum touch drywall was highly efficient, at the same time producing quality product. They are reliable and stayed on budget, i would highly recommend them.

I did a Kitchen Reno for my mother-in-law and decided to do a complete gut job, by removing the existing drywall up to the living room area. It became a challenge when I needed to blend an existing wall into a new wall and ensure a seamless transition. The new Kitchen has multiple cut-outs for added lights and electrical sockets. No errors were made on the drywall cutouts. Tom provided a time-lined schedule which coincided with other trades on the project which was completed as promised. No mess to clean up.

Looking at the finished work, one would never know where the old wall and new wall transitioned into one another. A job well done.

Job well done and left the house clean all within a timely manor. Easy to communicate with and quick to handle any concerns I had thought the drywall process.

I have been using Platinum Touch Drywall for a few years on all my projects. Anywhere from custom high end homes to smaller renovations. They provide the highest quality drywall service I have ever seen in the industry.

Platinum touch drywall has been taking care of my drywall and taping needs for renovations since 2011. They do excellent work and get it done in timely and clean manner. Tom is currently doing a bathroom reno for me and taking care of the textured ceilings as well. I would recommend Platinum Touch to anybody looking for a quality job done.

I am a General Contractor and use Tom for all my renovation projects. Tom's attention to detail is second to none and his prices are fair. He's also very honest and a great character to have around on the job site.

I wouldn't trust or call on anyone else.
