Our cottage roof sustained ice & snow load damage in March, 2015. Our insurance co. provided a detailed assessment of the required repairs by late June and told us to find our own contractor. I found IDL Contracting through The NS Home Builders web site. We signed a contract with IDL on 2 July 2015. This job involved removing approx. half of the cottage roof, replacing trusses, boarding in the entire roof, reshingling, new soffits, gutters, and insulation. The interior vaulted pine ceiling had to be replaced which involved removing all kitchen cupboards and reinstalling them. IDL also strengthened the original trusses over the remaining portions of the roof. We were extremely satisfied with the quality of their work, their flexibility, and the way they kept us updated on progress. The work was finished on time and slightly under budget. We were so impressed with their work ethic that we hired them to build us a gazebo the following summer.
Andrew and his crew were amazing to work with! We had our own plan and budget in mind and they exceeded our expectations. They are professional, respectful, and are just down to earth guys with great sense of humor. I would highly recommend Andrew and his crew to anyone!
Andrew and the team from IDL were fantastic to work with!
The initial quote was detailed and very easy to understand. Andrew was very budget conscious and kept us updated with any extra costs due to unforeseen circumstances, or additions to the project.
Communication was excellent before and during the reno process. The entire team from IDL were friendly, courteous, dependable, hard working, and knowledgeable.
I would highly recommend IDL! We were very pleased with the results of our renovations. I know we will be contacting IDL for any of our future projects.
I set up my first meeting with Andrew and the folks at idl as I had just sold my house and was looking for someone local to build me a new one from the ground up. I can say from the first meeting to him handing over the keys the whole experience was a great one for my wife, my daughter and myself. Very professional, personable and great at recommending what might be best but also very courteous of our own wishes and requests. Any issues with subcontractors (all minor) or material providers he sorted out promptly and to our satisfaction. Also great at explaining everything on a level we could all understand, made it easy to keep everyone happy and finances on track. Building a new home and garage for anyone will be stressful, but the horror stories everyone else told me about their contractors had me scared to death, all those fears were put to rest with idl and I will continue to use them for any further upgrades and recommend them to all my friends and family!
The entire process went very well starting with our initial meeting. Andrew listened to my concept and my budget amounts and made great suggestions.
When the quote came in, I understood all of the components - the quotes I received from other contractors were confusing and needed clarifications.
The work started on schedule and Andrew planned the work so I had a functional kitchen and bath throughout the process - this was important to me because our family was living in the home during the renovations.
I asked for a few extras - and they were completed with no issues.
They left the house as clean as possible at the end of each day - impressive!
Andrew completed the few deficiencies (and there are always some) without delay.
The invoice came in it was clear and understandable and was on track with the quote.
I felt I got great value for my money and am very happy with my renovations!
I can confidently recommend Andrew!
IDL Contracting did a great job, finished on time and on budget! Andrew listened to our needs and exceeded in his delivery. He and his workers were respectful of our home and have built a confidence with us that we will be using their services for future renovations.
I cant say enough good things about this contractor. He is professional, easy to work with, a perfectionist, he works extremely hard and got my very complicated job done on time and on budget, but most of all; he is TRUSTWORTHY. I have and will continue to recommended IDL to all my friends.
I met with so many horrible, unprofessional, smelly contractors before I found IDL Contracting.
From insulation, to flooring, everything was done exactly to code as well as my specifications.
IDL went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied with their work, and I still am!
I was very impressed with Andrew and his crew at IDL. They showed up on time and did what they said they were going to do. We got exactly what we wanted on budget. Andrew was great at getting in touch if he had any questions or concerns. I would highly recommend IDL Contracting.
IDL Contracting was great, they showed up on time and were extremely efficient. They explained everything as they were going along, cleaned up after themselves each day. The job was completed on time and on budget. It was certainly a pleasure to have create my new deck. I can't wait to see what the next project I have in store for them turns out like.
I can not say just how pleased I was with every single detail of the work carried out. The Owner and employees of IDL contracting performed above expectations, infact above excellent. They were on time and on budget arriving and leaving on time or even staying late to compete work. They went above and beyond all expectations. I would and will be hiring them again. They did their best to keep the fuss and mess to a minimum and left the place better than they found it. They listen to what we wanted and they provided excellent feed back and advice caming up with alternate solutions to tricky problems. Passed all inspections by the engineer with flying colours. I highly recommend their work and work ethic. Well done!
