When a friend of mine helping me up finishing the basement had to leave and start building his house after months of waiting for the approval of the permit, I knew the day will come when I will need professional help to finish the work he had left undone.
With only half finished bathroom reno to go and a few plumbing issues, I went online made my homework and came across reviews on Paul Contracting. Impressive I thought, and I gave it a try.
Considering myself very lucky to have contacted Paul, he graciously answered all my questions and concerns, and agreed to start the work the following day, with an estimated time to take was one day, which I kinda doubted initially.
To my surprise and amazement, Paul and his team finished the reno and all the agreed issues under 4 hours!!! Not only the workmanship was fantastic, they also clean up and took the garbage with them! A job that literally gave me peace of mind and money's worth! I had the whole afternoon to do other stuffs without worrying about the reno!
Great job, Paul Contracting! Looking forward for future work/repair and strongly recommend to anyone, everyone who wishes to gain wonderful experience with Paul Contracting!
I highly recommend Paul & his crew. Great workmanship. Great customer service. I will be a returning customer.
Work completed:
Complete bathroom reno. Knock down walls, build walls, tear up concrete floor & install plumbing, new ceiling, all plumbing & electrical, tiled walls/floors, install new toilet/tub/vanity.
Our daughter flooded our main floor bathroom and as a result we needed to completely gut the bathroom and start fresh.
We had Paul from Paul's Contracting do the work. Paul and his crew are AMAZING!! Their workmanship is superb -- our bathroom looks BEAUTIFUL!!! Paul and the 2 guys he has working for him are very kind and friendly. We felt comfortable leaving our house while they were working. Every night before they left they would clean up and make sure no mess was left.
We are SO impressed with Paul's work that we are having him come back and redo the floor in our entrance way and kitchen.
Paul's rates are fair and comparable.
We would have no problem recommending Paul's Contracting to anyone who is looking for any sort of renovation. You won't be disappointed -- promise!!!
From initial consultation to the finished product, Paul was professional and knowledgeable. He provided lots of suggestions and ideas from his experience of other renos which helped me in decision making. The end result is better than I could ever imagined!
Paul and Chris worked hard to stay to timelines because I have just one bathroom in my home. They were dedicated to the project and responded quickly to questions and concerns.
I strongly recommend Pauls Contracting! They give a clear and honest expectation of cost and stick to it, work is done to a high standard and you will be delighted!
It is not easy to have a good contractor for any renovations. I researched a lot of contractors with their reviews and Trusted Pros websites helped me to find Paul’s contracting. My Kitchenette renovation is very small but I wanted it to be functional. Paul listened carefully about my plan and understood right away what I wanted. He also suggested some of things from my plan that helped me save the cost. When renovation was processing, I changed some things from my original plan and Paul was very helpful to make a right decision. He kept me updated as the work was done. Time lines were exactly as Paul had estimated. Every cabinet is perfectly balanced and firmly installed and counter tops and a sink are also beautifully installed with a good balance. Now, I have a functional, cozy, and unique Kitchenette. I recommend Paul’s Contracting to anyone and I will use him again.
We were very lucky to find Paul’s Contracting and what helped us were the reviews from Trusted Pros. Also, the many awards presented to Paul’s Contracting impressed us as well.
Our first meeting with Paul was at our house. Paul’s experience and abilities shined through; he quickly was able to envision what we wanted. Paul was not in any rush; he listened to our detailed vision. The area for the bathroom was in the basement and as usual the roughed in plumbing was all in the wrong place. Paul was quick to suggest the best placement of the new plumbing to accommodate the small space. He quickly assessed the job and immediately gave us an estimate of cost before he left our house. I had full confidence he would do a great job. Paul figured he would be able to start within a couple of weeks and we set up the following meeting (two days later) to discuss the job in detail. When we were completely satisfied with the details of his contract, he was actually able to begin the job two days later.
During the process of the renovation, besides working on the job himself, Paul had two very competent and diligent workers with him. Both workers were devoted to the job and no time was ever wasted. Paul over-saw every detail and checked off each item as,’ finished to perfection’. Both workers were friendly and accommodating.
Three weeks later, the job is complete and we are extremely satisfied. I invited a trusted real estate agent/ friend to view the finished space. The agent is now recommending Paul to her VIP customers.
One added note, we had interviewed other contractors the same day we interview Paul, and their estimates arrived while Paul was already half finished the renovations.
I absolutely recommend Paul as a truly honest and competent contractor. I will be using his expertise in all of my future renovations. I am eagerly spreading the word of his great work to all. If a great job at a fair price and the need for a good night’s sleep is want you find important, then Paul’s Contracting is who you need.
Working with Paul was awesome because he made the process easy by taking the time to describe exactly what he was going to do up front so there were no surprises. Then he did what he said he was going to do and was finished on time. He even repaired the water main valve in the basement because he noticed it was defective without me even asking! He really enjoys what he is doing and it is comes thru in his enthusiasm. He listens and wants to do a good job and it shows. I will be hiring Paul again when I need more work done. I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family.
Pauls' crew were very professional and created a bathroom out of useless space. He was always available for consultation and work ethic was great. I would highly recommend for any project. Looking forward to the next job.
