Our experience with Lighthouse Renovations was extremely positive. We had a fairly involved renovation for 2 bathrooms on our second floor. The first was a tub and surround replacement, tiling, and flooring replacement. The second was a more involved Ensuite bathroom renovation, with a full alcove installation involving new valves, tiling, flooring, the removal of a partition wall, and installation of a new sliding door.
Our home is aged, from the early 1980’s. In short, the renovation was a full success, and we couldn’t be happier. Craig was very professional, on time, on budget, and gave great recommendations for a busy couple not knowing exactly how to make what we wanted a reality. He gave good advice on how to deal with the intricate challenges of an older home, and made sure we were well educated about our options and what would work best. He was flexible, fair, and affordable.
We would heartily recommend anyone looking for a contractor to consider Lighthouse Renovations. We hope to utilize Craig’s services again soon. The quality of the workmanship was excellent, and our reno’s have become such an integral part of our home that we can’t recall what life was like beforehand! We only wished we’d contacted Lighthouse sooner!
It was time to take out the old deck and build a new one. Craig provided a quote within a couple days of our initial meeting and everything looked good so we gave the "green light"
It turned out we needed to replace more joists than initially thought. No problem, additional cost was more than reasonable. When the deck was finished it was exactly what we envisioned. Craig's workmanship and attention to detail was top-notch.
I'll be looking at Lighthouse Renos again for future projects.
Well done Craig!
Craig is a pleasure to have in your home. He is on time, works steady and extremely tidy. I would be pleased to recommend him to anyone who wants quality work done, and as other things come up, he will be the man to call.
Craig provided professional service and started and finished on time! He kept his work clean and neat, never leaving debris behind. The quality of the work is high, so detailed! Solid job! Would recommend him to anyone who needs to hire a home renovator!
We greatly appreciated Craig's friendly, easy going nature and his willingness to work with us throughout the completion of our basement project. The initial cost of the project and later cost adjustments, due to our changes to the contract, were fair and reasonable.
We are loving our new theater room, bedroom with walk in closet, bathroom and stairwell.
At Lighthouse Renovations our goal is to receive the highest ratings on every project. Sometimes at the sacrifice of extra, uncompensated time. There were a few time delays, product quality issues and communication lapses in this project but we can't be held responsible for products chosen and delivered by owners and wait times surrounding them. I am of course happy when my owners are happy with the final product.
Lighthouse Renovations completed our basement development project within agreed time. Craig was always available to answer our questions and was very proactive in communicating. Quality of work was good and as promised. He was always giving us a well thought out and professional advice to make our project better. We had no problems at all in getting the work done and are very pleased with our basement development. We will definitely hire Lighthouse Renovations again and recommend them to our friends.
Thanks Craig!
We're thrilled with our bathroom renovation and thank Lighthouse Renovations for a great job. We found Craig easy to talk to, he shared advice and suggestions and was open to changes throughout the renovation. The work was completed on time and with so little disruption we hardly knew he was there, and the work area was always cleaned up at the end of his day. Customer service, experience, quality work, efficient and at a reasonable price is pretty much everything we could have hoped for with a renovation project.
Very happy with work that Craig did on my basement, quality work at a competitive price. He did most of the work himself and offered suggestions to improve upon on my initial plan. Communicated with me throughout so I could decide on various options. You can tell how experienced he was as I had a couple of odd areas that needed to be framed around and he did a pretty good job to blend it in. I would not hesitate to use Lighthouse Renovations again or recommend Craig to my friends.
Craig was the 6th contractor we talked to and immediately we liked him, because he provided spot-on suggestions that illustrated his experiences.
His quote was among the most affordable. The report wasn't fancy, but it clearly listed what were included and what were not. We liked the fact that we got to choose and purchase important items such as laminate floor, carpet, and vanity separately so the cost was completely under control - and Craig was always available to give advices.
One week into the project and we knew we chose the right person. He sticks to the plan, keeps tools and materials organized, and always informs us the progress and what's coming next.
Not surprisingly, he completed the job in time and with high quality even though we had to make a couple changes here and there. The cost was within the budget, and we couldn't be happier.
We will definitely recommend him to anyone requiring home renovations.
Thank you Chris.
It was a pleasure to work for you and I was very happy with the end result as well.
