We had an excellent experience with Mike and Michael for whole renovations for our home. It was an extensive project involving opening up the living space, removing stucco ceilings, installation of potlights and light fixtures, repainting all walls, replacing all trim and a new powder room. We had a separate team for our floors.
Mike and Michael were professional and communicative throughout the whole project. I appreciated this the most. I would get daily texts about the project, arranged times weekly to review progress and immediate calls/messages if there were issues. They took great care in our home and told us when they found issues such as water damage (missed during our home inspection) all the way to letting us know that our daughter's room was giving them trouble with being painted. The previous owners had painted over wallpaper and the first coat was not up to their standards. They gave us options and costs in how to approach issues and were very open to changes when we discussed them. It was a fantastic experience throughout. Michael even went beyond to check on our house a few times during the project because "It's ok, I live close by". We couldn't have asked for more.
Their team took a ~3 week break for our flooring team to come in which caused us stress because we wanted to move in ASAP. They doubled their efforts and got our house move in ready before the new year. Mike was fantastic at keeping us updated and coordinating our cleaners. He let us know right to the hour when they would be done.
This was a fantastic contractor and home renovation experience. We are absolutely happy to be in our home and the changes from when we bought to what it is now is night and day. I can't recommend them more!!
Thank you very much, Pierre, for this great detailed review. We are thrilled that you are pleased with the work being done at your house.
This was our first experience with M&D Buildings and we are very pleased, not only with the completed work, but also with the manner that Mike and his team carried out the project.
This renovation was not overly large but a bit complicated. It involved the full removal of an interior wall to open up the space between the kitchen and family room. This wall was load bearing, so the work required the appropriate engineering assessment and the design of a replacement support structure along with the documentation to support the application for the permit from the municipal building department. Mike and his team handled all of these preparatory requirements and the permit was issued in a matter of a few weeks from the start.
Once approval was obtained, Mike and his team started and completed the work adhering to the schedule that was initially proposed. The work also involved the reworking of the impacted heating ductwork, improvements to the existing lighting, additional electrical work, replacement of the flooring, removal of dated popcorn ceiling and final painting. The finishing work was extended to the adjoining hallways and stairs.
What could have been a significant complication was that the work was started and completed when both of us were out of the country. In our opinion this is where Mike further demonstrated his professionalism. He maintained regular and detailed communication on the status for the work and when our decisions were required. The onus was always on us to respond to Mike’s requests for direction, and at no time was there a need for us to chase him to find out what was going on; he was always a text away. Mike gave us his honest opinion as to what would look better as work took its course, and he was always right.
We recently worked with the M&D team for our extensive main floor renovation and we are extremely thrilled with the quality and final outcome. We now have the open concept main floor and kitchen of our dreams.
I did my homework leading up to selecting the right contractor - including background and reference checks. This was a big decision and investment and we had high expectations. We didn’t want to risk a nightmare for a cheaper result, regrets and problems.
From the moment we met Mike it was clear he had a good sense of our needs and a good process to develop an accurate budget and timeline that would address our wishes. Other contractors we met were so effusive and unclear and some even told us what we wanted was not possible.
In fact, it was during the planning process before we even gave Mike a deposit, that it became clearer and clearer we were in very experienced and capable hands. From working with the structural engineer to ensure we had the right approach to tear down walls and a beam/floor plan that would be approved by the town, to his hands on crew who managed everything structural and finishing, to his kitchen supplier giving me different lay out options and material choices, to his electricians guiding us to a panel upgrade etc.. Every detail was accounted for and the plans and commitments were clear.
The process itself went off very seamlessly. The crew was here everyday - on time - and cleaned up daily. Once the structural part began any little hiccups that emerged, Mike’s team would communicate clearly and always had solutions for us. Mike was never farther than a quick text to answer questions or a visit to discuss plans. He was very responsive and was always making sure we were happy and unstressed. He and his team were also very flexible if I changed or added something - they would just get it done.
They even met our timeline expectations and worked with us to ensure when we moved back in, it was only a short time for the fully finished work to be done (cabinets/counter tops and appliances installed).
There were no surprises on the budget either - now don’t get me wrong - we added work as the project started like flooring and fresh paint into the basement, etc… but any increase in the budget was due to us expanding the scope of work, not because Mike had misrepresented anything.
Another signal of confidence is we have already talked to Mike about plans for his team to finish our 2nd floor when the time is right. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Mike and his team again.
If you are looking for a reliable, trustworthy contractor who does quality work, on time and on budget - go with M&D! You will be in excellent hands!
We are extremely happy with our ensuite renovation completed by M&D Buildings. Mike and his team (Michael & Stan) did a fabulous job. They were prompt, skilled, trustworthy, neat, helpful, and pleasant throughout the process. The work was completed ahead of time and on budget. They turned our ensuite into a spa installing a free-standing tub, custom sized roll-in glass shower, porcelain tiles throughout, and a new vanity with double sinks. Everything was done with precision and care.
We’ve just had another awesome renovation done by M&D Builders and couldn’t be more impressed with their continued expertise and professionalism.
We had them renovate our basement two years ago and contacted them again this year to reno the upstairs bathroom and main floor kitchen/living area. Unsure as to what we really wanted, Mike & his teams helped us to to achieve a result that far surpasses our expectations!
Mike was always available if we had any questions or concerns & his teams were punctual, hard working, very respectful & friendly professionals. They kept any disruption to a minimum and left everything in an orderly fashion at the end of the day.
We are proudly inviting neighbours and friends in to see the fantastic change & are highly recommending their services to anyone who has a reno project in mind.
Many thanks to all of you for a fantastic job!
Thank you, Debbie, for your kind words and fantastic hospitality. It was a true pleasure working with you & Phil, and we are very happy you were satisfied with the work.
I engaged Mike to renovate my bathroom, ensuite, powder room, mudroom and install a new laundry area in the basement over a period of about 5 weeks.
I couldn't be happier with the results!
The design process was very collaborative and we worked with his associates to have custom cabinets built to my specifications.
I free issued the materials even when there were a couple of hiccups along the way Mike was able to help me out in a pinch.
Communication was excellent and what I liked most was that Mike's team is a one stop shop for all rennovation disciplines including plumbing, tiling, painting, electrical and hardwood flooring installation.
Living with renovations can be taxing but Mike'steam were very thoughtful and housekeeping at the end each day kept the dust down to the bare minimum.
Do yourself a favor, for your next renno, give Mike a call.
Thank you, Natasha, for taking the time to write this review. We are happy that you were satisfied with our workmanship and quality of work. The updated look of the house turned out great. It was a pleasure working with you, and looking forward to getting your kitchen done soon!
This is the second time that we had Mike and his team to do the renovation, we renovated the kitchen three years ago, now it’s the washroom. Mike did a great job in both projects, we discussed a lot before started, Mike gave many suggestions. And the team also did a great job, I am very satisfied with my new bathroom, thanks Mike and your team!
Thank you very much, May, for your great review!
I had two bathroom renovations happening at the same time. M & D Builders provides great customer service, they are punctual and professional and Mike always returned calls and texts. Workers were careful to cover furniture and floors and were trustworty and always on time. The professionals that were working on the two bathrooms were not only professionals, but they were also perfectionists. I was very pleased with the finished product and super happy that I finally replaced one of my bathtubs with a walk in shower. I have included before and after photos of the main bathroom.
I am writing this review approximately 2 months after Mike and his crew (led by Michael) renovated 2.5 washrooms (and extended the size of the ensuite closet, removed the popcorn ceiling in one room, painted a couple of walls) in my home, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, Mike was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring that we were satisfied with the final product (in fact, they came by a couple of times after the fact to rectify a few minor things - e.g., one of power outlets kept tripping).
The renovation process was smooth and efficient, and Mike (or Michael) was always available to answer any questions I had or address any concerns that arose. They were incredibly responsive and kept me informed every step of the way, which made me feel confident and comfortable throughout the entire project. The team was in at 8am sharp everyday and sometimes stayed a bit longer to reach the week's milestone. In fact, they finished MUCH sooner than expected - in ~19-20 days with a crew of approx. 3 people (that's including the time required to complete some unbudgeted and unplanned work - e.g., leveling the floor in the master washroom).
The quality of the work that Mike and team did is exceptional. They clearly take pride in their work and pay close attention to every detail. The finished product exceeded my expectations and looks absolutely stunning. My wife and I are thrilled with our newly renovated washrooms, and we have received numerous compliments on the work that was done.
Overall, I would highly recommend MD Builders to anyone who is looking for a professional, reliable, and talented contractor to complete their renovation project. I can't thank them enough for their hard work, dedication, and craftsmanship. A big thanks for transforming our washrooms into beautiful, functional spaces that we love!
Soon after we had a leak in our house somewhere (not related to this project), and Mike was the first person I called after the insurance company, and he helpfully pointed me to a couple of folks who could help in an emergency. We are also currently in the process of pulling together some funds to do a basement renovation with MD Builders.
As a couple going through renovations for the first time, we were a bit nervous and unaware about the process - so in case this is helpful to others in a similar boat:
- Contractor quotes typically only include basic building materials and labor - we were on the hook for sourcing our own vanities, tiles, toilets, grout, paint, etc.
- Contractors, like Mike, often have preferred suppliers who can provide a competitive quote, but it also helps to shop around with other suppliers (we managed to find better deals elsewhere)
As with anything there are always areas of improvement that can help Mike take his business to the next level:
1. Some design tools to help visualize how things would look / help choose between different options - and/or design consultation services (esp. given the overall ticket size of these projects is in the 50-150k mark)
2. In some instances, greater transparency on why things cost what they do / why some items are more complex than they appear to. Not to say that he didn't do this, but there were 1-2 instances where things that appeared relatively simple (and did not add significantly to the overall project timeline) to us laypeople were rather expensive.
Overall very happy with the work and am attaching some pictures that show some before / after as well as some work in progress pics (e.g., while working on the master ensuite washroom, they protected the rest of the bedroom with a plastic separation and flooring with thick paper).
Thank you Mike for my main floor refresh.
From the onset Mike took the time to walk me through the process and provide options that I hadn't thought of myself. The team executed quickly and professionally delivering the finished project ahead of schedule.
Everyone was great to work with and am enjoying my new kitchen!
Thank you Mike and team look forward to future projects!
Thank you for your great review, Karen! Looking forward to working with you again.
