I can’t say much as I’m suing the company. Stay away from Karen and Karit.
This company has closed.
Not sure what the bigger disappoint was dealing with Covid, loosing employees or dealing with people who think their above Health Canada.
Our team worked on your property until almost the middle of May. Payments owed and our team not feeling safe working. Good news is their are tons of pictures, videos phone conversations and emails.

We hired them in January to completely demolish and renovate 3 bathrooms in our condo. COVID hit in March but we were assured they had all our materials to move forward with the project. We also suggested that one bathroom stay in tact but once again were assured there would be no problem. I could write a book on the issues we had, from Karen’s constant complaining, and accusing us of things that weren’t true, to them taking 4 months to complete one bathroom. We did not even have a professional contractor do the renovations but rather her husband who also owns an auto body shop. We were not aware of this until sometime in July. We assumed that renovation was his trade. We paid a fortune for basically a DIY. We parted ways in August and hired another contractor who finished the other two bathrooms in 2 months. We didn’t get all materials we paid for from Karit so needless to say this project was a huge expense. Would never recommend them in a million years. We have had our entire house renovated so we are very familiar with contractors and how they operate. Karit contracting is a disgrace to all the good contractors out there. If you see there name or they approach you for a job, RUN as fast as you can!!!!
Our only response to you and your comments is that you were unreasonable with it all.
As soon as Covid started to effect my teams and me losing employees. That's right my husband jumped right in to help as you would of had nobody. However people like you who think cause their rich and entitled. A freaking pendemic.
Then you try to say we never gave you your materials. Meanwhile a full video of you picking them up from our shop.
You have the problem. A serious problem.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE, NIGHT AND DAY!!!!. Our basement was partially done from the previous owners. We contacted KARIT they were quick to respond. The first visit we went through the things we liked and wanted to have done. KARIT gave us a quote within 48 hours, they came with a general sketch and explained all the details and process, they helped us visualize the process, and the end result. What we really loved most, was that during the process they made recommendations, that was brilliant!!. We couldn't thank them enough for having us do their recommendations. We had dreams of what we wanted our basement to be in the end, and all we can say was that in the end, the result was better than expected. The crew worked well in unison, and professional. Thank you KARIT, we love our new space.
