Mr. Joel is the motivation man, hard-working, and time conscious man. He does not play with his time but reserve little time for socializing with his client. He took his time to explain things for you to understand and for his job to be excellent. If to recognise someone for the wall stone job, Mr.. Joel will be number one on my list. Thank you Joel for the beautiful and great job you did for us. Joel.
Hi Joel thank you for the review. I am glad your enjoying the stone wall. I did notice you have miss spelt my name with the letter "L" could you sent another review using my name Joe. Thanks again.

Joe did a fantastic job and we were so impressed that we are thinking on renovating my mother's home (she went to a LTC home). Her home hasn't been updated hardly at all for the past 20 years! But Joe told me how we could bring the house up to a new move in shape for a reasonable sum!
From what I have been shown, he knows what he is doing and goes the extra way to do the job well without taking you to the cleaners! He is very picky ion the work he does!
I certainly would recommend him for any household job!
Thank you for the review. I have more great Idea's for the home I will share with you at our next meeting.

I hired Joe to install glass shower doors and for other carpentry tasks. Despite the bathtub not being level he did a great job to make sure they fit properly and worked as they should. He went above and beyond to install the bathroom fan as well. Overall great job. He definitely knows his stuff and would recommend him to anyone for any renovation work.
Thank You Rino for the review. I am glad your enjoying the shower doors and new bathroom door.
