L.P.Donan Construction

Lisandro Donen was a wonderful find. (In fact, we found him on this website). Lisandro inspired our confidence. From the beginning, his quotes and contracts were fair and very clearly presented. The first job he did was to paint our living room and attach molding. Because our house is very old, he had to be creative with the molding, and built beautiful pieces for the corners. The work was immaculate. For our bathroom, he offered solutions for problems, and was willing to take on additional issues such as putting insulation behind a wall that we thought had already been insulated. For each extra job, he was very fair with his pricing. We've also gotten him to insulate a basement window and properly excavate the window well. He has extensive experience in construction and has creative solutions for many of the problem areas in our house.

He works diligently, he's honest and respectful, and pays attention to detail. The bathroom is now exactly as we wanted. Furthermore, he's a pleasant personality to have around the house, and that is no small thing when somebody is in your home for some period of time. We would recommend him without hesitation.

We were looking for someone to build our deck using good materials: Trex Decking, Trex Rain Escape, and also TimberTech RadianceRail for the railing. It wasn't a small deck either.

He wasn't the cheapest, but wasn't the most expensive either. But it isn't the "cheapest" in construction quality either. We were surprised at the good quality worksmenship and the care to detail that Lisandro had given to the building of our deck. He did a great job at trying to: a) stay within budget, though there were requirements from the city that changed it but he did his best to work with us on it, b) respecting our property and privacy while working on the project, and c) was professional and polite throughout the entire process.

The deck has now turned out to being one of our favourite parts of our home, and is quite possibly one of the nicest on the block. Plus, with the rainescape we can use the area underneath even when it is raining. He did a good job installing that part as well.

I can't say that I have complaints about his work. Wasn't a fan on some of the permit requirements from the city, but that wasn't because of him. If we need a contractor with this level of workmanship in the future we would definitely keep Lisandro in mind, and will recommend him to others.

Excellent quality in the work, which included new flooring (tile and bamboo), new baseboard, drywall, painting, and plumbing. More importantly, Lisandro communicated very well, showed up on time/as promised, and kept the work site clean.

Very pleased with the quality of work provide for the dry install as part of a kitchen reno, taping and mud work; excellent work on the joining of drywall with existing walls and ceiling, would highly recommended and will use the company for future work. Finished the job as per original time commitment and per the quote for pricing.

L.P. Donan Construction, did a fantastic job for me, I was very please by their professionalism and quality of work. The job was completed on time and they cleaned up at the end of each day. I would recommend them to anyone wanting work done in a professional manner.

There is only one most important thing to look for in a contractor and that is trust. From the beginning we gave Lisandro lots of trust and he has proven himself throughout the renovation to be worthy of that trust. We hadn't moved into our house yet and lived in a different city, so he did the renovations without us being around. In fact, we only checked in 2 times during the 4 weeks of renovations, and the 3rd time, he was done! On time, on budget. He sent lots of photos and communicated with us very clearly the status and all the details of the work. Every task was done properly and we were very satisfied with the end result.

Of course, there are other things to look for in a contractor besides trust, and Lisandro gets perfect ratings on everything. If you knew me personally, you would understand that I never give perfect ratings to anybody, and then you will know how rare it is to find somebody who's that good. Yes, Lisandro is that good. In moving into our new house, we've had to deal with a half-dozen services, and Lisandro was the best, by far.

One characteristic of Lisandro's that really stood out for me was how patient he was with us. He never seemed to be in a rush and always had time to carefully answer all our questions. This is such a rare courtesy and every other contractor should learn from his example.

We are looking forward to hiring him again for future renovations. You should definitely hire him!

We are so happy with how our renovation turned out. We kept a lot of the old parts of the kitchen so there were a lot of places where you had to connect the old with the new and deal with trim and match new trim with old and Lisandro always knew exactly how to do it and made it look great. Drywalling and tiling look perfect and straight. And the process of the renovation went really well too, on time and Liasandro was totally committed to making sure we were happy with everything. And Lisandro and his crew were nice friendly guys to have in your house for 3 weeks too.

Lisandro has done a good job to replace the drywalls around my skylight. The skylight is located right on top of the stairs, so make it become a really hard spot to reach, but Lisandro overcome the difficulties and fix it like brand new. He also did a great job painting the ceiling and walls.

Lisandro painted accent walls in my Condo.Since I live alone he also moved some very heavy furniture.The painting was very well done,the furniture was put back in place and he was kind enough to rehang artwork.He cleaned up nicely and the job was done in a timely,pleasant manner.I would highly recommend his work to anyone.

We were lucky to find Lisandro Donan. We needed to repair some damage caused by water infiltration inside the house, and we were so pleased after he fixed it, that we asked him to do some renovations in our three bathrooms. Lisandro was professional, honest, and reliable. He was upfront about potential problems, time, and expenses, and he kept his word from all the points of view. We would gladly use his services in the future.

And what a wonderful job he did!! Lisandro does amazing work. He is fast, efficient, professional and pleasant. His cleanliness in the work environment was exceptional and we could not be happier with his workmanship. We will have him back time and time again without a doubt. Well done and highly recommend.

Very professional. They offered suggestions to the when that we wanted done and listened to our ideas as well. They took their time to do the job right and made sure we were happy too. Would highly recommend their work to there and we would use their services again- no questions asked!

We contracted L.P. Donan Construction to install new flooring and repaint the main floor of our home. They had to strip the flooring from kitchen, dining room, family room, entrance and powder room and install new laminate flooring throughout as well as paint all walls. The work was done on-time and on-budget with minimal disruption to the normal family operations. They took our design changes in stride (half way through we changed the laminate at the entrance and powder room) and we could not be happier with the results! We look forward to having the opportunity to use them again. Thanks for the great job!!!

We couldn't have been more pleased with this company and the work they did for us. Every facet of their work was done to perfection. Lisandro, the owner, would make sure that my wife and I be kept informed about every step of the project. He is clearly extremely conscientious about his work, caring very much about finishing it in a timely fashion and to the customers' expectations and satisfaction. He was also very very courteous and considerate, professionally explaining various options, with their pros and cons, and helping out with making the right decisions. Highly recommended.

We were thoroughly impressed with quality of workmanship that Lisandro and team brought to our projects. They were always friendly and considerate and took great pride in minimizing the disruption to the household. The level care and obvious pride applied to the work was much appreciated. I would use Lisandro for any project in the future without hesitation.
