Over a period of five weeks Mark Armstrong renovated a 350 square foot area of our basement. He was very adept at prioritizing aspects of the work over the Christmas and New Year holiday period to accommodate our family needs and to prepare for electrical and plumbing requirements.
Mark repaired existing framing, framed a dividing wall, ducting, two doors and a reach-in closet. He installed insulation and drywall on all three walls and two ceilings, and purchased, delivered and installed the DriCore subfloor throughout. Mark installed laminate flooring, baseboards and trim and repaired/installed four doors including by-pass closet doors.
Mark is a very skilled carpenter who solved many issues for us and we are very happy with his work. We would hire him again for future renovations and highly recommend Armstrong Carpentry for home renovations.
Thanks Larry!
We are very pleased our new deck. We chose Mark because we knew he was a trained carpenter rather than a general contractor who builds decks. The finish is excellent. He is very reliable and did the work on the agreed days - work also done very quickly and good clean up. He also let us know that the old deck was not to code (slightly too big) and helped us sort this out.
Thanks Fiona!
Mark takes great pride in providing quality results for all his clients. I have assisted Mark on several projects in the past and his attention to detail, knowledge, skill and friendly professional attitude make for a positive experience.
Cheers Bob!
Mark is very professional at his job. He provided a very competitive quote and timeline. He worked during the hours we specified (8am-4pm). The house was clean when we returned each day. The job was completed on time and on budget. The finish of his work is good too.
When you hire Mark, be sure to tell him what you expect and he will tell you what he will deliver - you will get exactly what you have agreed upon.
I strongly recommend his services and will hire him for other carpentry around the house.
Mark is also a very courteous person making working with him a pleasant experience.
I found Mark's contact info online (I think on this website) and got him to build a new cedar deck for my bi-level home in Calgary. Mark was fantastic the whole way through. I think I got the quote the same day I called him as he was in the area. He helped a lot during the planning stages which was very nice. I had pages of questions that I emailed him and he went through all of them and gave me good answers on every point. The work was completed quickly and he kept me very informed with texts during the process. I thought the finishing was exceptionally good. For example, Mark framed the railing posts through the decking and right into the joists as oposed to notching the posts and having them secured along the edge. It was very clean looking and you only need one post at the corners as opposed to two. The deck was quite long (~ 20ft) and Mark "window-framed" the decking so there were no butt joints on the deck floor. It was little things like this that I really loved with the finishing. Another last example is using a good quality 2 x 2 cedar for the decking as opposed to thinner, cheaper material. I couldn't be happier with the work Mark did and I plan to call up Mark again when I need carpentry done either inside or outside. One last note is the price was fair and competitive with other quotes.
Thanks Steven !
Mark Armstrong is easy to work with. He listens to what you want and makes sure he knows your expectations before he starts the work. His prices are competitive, and he does quality work. The final product was better than I expected. I was most impressed by his ability to stick to a deadline. He gave me a date it would be done, and he finished on time. I would not hesitate to hire Armstrong Carpentry again.
Mark Armstrong did an amazing job for us - we couldn't be happier. He was professional from start to finish. Not only did he do a superb job in a timely fashion at an competitive price, but he even had some excellent design ideas for us before construction began. I have recommended Mark to many friends, who have had the same great results.
We asked Mark to help us on two occasions. Both times Mark was very accommodating in working us into his schedule on short notice.
The first job we had him do was to fabricate and install stringer trim on our staircase. The job was done professionally and we were very happy with the outcome.
The second job we had him do for us was to make repairs to our dining room sub-floor in preparation for a hardwood flooring installation. The installation of a cantilever during the construction of the house was done improperly and resulted in a pretty substantial hump in our floor. I wanted to have this repaired. Mark came on short notice the Saturday before the the hardwood was to be installed on the following Monday. This was a pretty difficult job as he had to remove the sub-floor and plane the floor joists as well as to properly support the cantilever which was not done properly during construction of the house. When he was done, the floor was perfectly level.
Both times Mark made the effort to seal off the work area to keep dust down and cleaned the work area when finished.
I wouldn't hesitate to use Mark's services again and I highly recommend him for any carpentry task.
