We had the pleasure of working with Dan and his team at Pivato Contracting to undertake a major renovation in our home. A primary en-suite bathroom, a his and her walk-in closet, a secondary bathroom. Plus a major Reno to our front entrance, powder room and new laundry/mudroom.
Before we signed with Dan and Pivato contracting we had hired another contractor for this undertaking. Things went sour quickly with excuses, delays, and not a hammer yet lifted. Long story short, after a year of no results, and a court settlement, we were apprehensive about moving forward with a Reno at all.
From the initial meeting with Dan we were comforted by his honest answers, knowledge, and the time he took to listen to our vision meanwhile understanding our apprehension based on the past experience we had.
From initial consultation to finished construction Dan was always there to answer questions, give his expert advice, while always keeping our vision a priority.
If you truly want a peace of mind Reno don’t hesitate to go with Dan at Pivato Contracting.

Dan, Mike and his crew were the upmost professional and knowledgeable. From suggestions on materials and/or the aesthetics on my bathroom, I was very pleased with the end result. Bathroom looks beautiful!
Highly recommend Pivato Contracting.
This was our first experience with Pivato Contracting, we renovated our main floor. We really enjoyed working with Dan and his team, they were extremely professional, arrived on time and cleaned up each day before they left. Their attention to detail and workmanship was amazing. We are extremely happy with the end results of our home renovation. We will definitely be using Pivato Contracting for any future renovation/remodeling projects.
Team was very professional. Very knowledgable and experienced. Able to work efficiently and quality of work very good. Throughout the messiest of times, kept workplace clean and took time to make sure we could live through the renos comfortably. Respectful of our pet and working schedules.
Working with Dan and his crew was a wonderful experience. They were incredibly professional, clean, kept our project on time, and brought our vision to reality. We couldn't be happier with the end results
They were all very nice and accommodating. And as for them having to be in your home on a regular basis ... Before long they no longer seemed like "strangers"... just friends we hadn't met yet!!
I'd say their workmanship is worth the $$$ Also if it so happened that you thought there to be even the slightest imperfection they would gladly have it done to your liking; to ensure you were happy with the end result.
I'd highly recommended these talented men, as they indeed no their craft!
Fantastic experience with Dan and his team. They were concise, professional and very easy to deal with. The attention to detail and care they took with our project really impressed us as did the way they explained what they were doing. Dan was also great at offering opinions and suggestions during the process. He really understood our somewhat unique vision. It was a great experience and the finished bathroom is stunning. Highly recommend!
Dan with Pivato Contracting has been an integral part of my pergola project. He’s the first knowledgeable contractor I’ve spoken to (and I spoke with too many!) that actually KNOWS his stuff, and took the time to explain everything I wanted to know. Hands down, the best decision you’ll make for your project.
We love our new bathroom. Dan and his crew did such an amazing job. Dan was always responsive, walking us through everything and always there to answer a call or email. So glad we went with Pivato over other cookie cutter contractors who wanted to just sell us on a "package". Dan embraced our vision for the new bathroom from start to finish. Thanks so much!
Everyone at Pivato is absolutely amazing. They are professional, highly skilled, personable, and extremely pleasant to work with/alongside. They very much have the attitude and skills to work as a "team" with a homeowner. I was blown away by their outstanding work and joy with life. They listened to my thoughts and came up with excellent suggestions. They also had no problem taking my ideas and incorporating them in to their woodwork. They were brilliant at installing ship lap, and other interesting wall trim, with outstanding mitoring around some very tricky stone work inside the house. I can't recommend this team enough. Their prices were extremely reasonable. I don't stop getting complements about the work they did for us.
