I hired Pat and crew to remove a bathtub to be replaced with a shower. I knew exactly what I wanted, Pat understood. Additions along the way no problem. The demolition took one day, after that the walls were rebuilt with waterproofing. Then came his tiler Tony, trained by Pat. The work was painstakingly done and is beautiful. I like that Pat always told us what he was doing/why.
He always let us know what time he and or just the crew would arrive. Once installation was complete we had a few things to be tweaked and he was on it to perfection.
I highly recommend Pat and crew Curtis and Tony. Very professional!
I am so glad I looked at Patrice's reviews. Everyone was right.
Great work and oh my gosh talk about value for the dollar! Outstanding. He made a couple of suggestions, that I wouldn't have thought of, which proved to be spot on. I think I have a couple of little things I'd like done but I know you have to book him well before you expect to use him. People are catching on!
Thanks so much Patrice. You and your compadres did it all and perfectly!!!

I contacted Patrice mid-January 2022 and was told that I would have to wait till mid-May/early June for my bathroom renovation as he was fully booked, I asked him to add my name to his list; we were ready to wait. He paid a visit a week later to view the space and gave us a quote. Patrice and his team started their work at the end of May; he said it would take 3 weeks, and all the work was completed within the 3 weeks - and the final result is beautiful. Patrice is experienced, organized, meticulous, and very communicative with us (encouraged frequent check-ins). I've asked him to add my name to his list again as I'm sure we will have other projects to complete when my turn comes up again.
Hello: We relied on the reviews to hire PS as we did not know Patrice or his services. This small project took on a life on its own as Pat struggled to get the necessary components during the pandemic. He kept in touch regularly and even returned after completion to do a small job. The work quality is excellent and he was a quiet presence in our home during the reno. We say say to using Patrice and PS for your home reno.

I was extremely impressed by the quality and workmanship of Pat when he did an installation for me.
It was an unusual job in that the blinds had to be mounted on the high frame of a aluminum carport.
Not only did the installation go smoothly but his knowledge and skill were evident when some special adaptations had to be constructed.
I will certainly use Pat again and recommend him to my friends and neighbors.
KALON HAIR contracted with PS Handyman and Design to redesign a new location into a hair shop. The redesign of the space required the removal of walls, framing new walls, drywall repairs and painting; new plumbing configurations to accommodate our hair washing stations; new lighting and electrical outlets; as well as building a reception desk for us. Patrice was able to do all of the work for us, and contracted with an electrician to look after the electrical improvements. Patrice not only looked after the the changes to the physical space, he also looked after the smaller details for us like the installation of fixtures and equipment!
We are very happy with the overall results, the workmanship, and the attention to detail that Patrice provided. We definitely recommend him for any renovation you are planning on doing!
I can't say enough about how happy I am with the work provided by Patrice. He under quoted my previous installer (who I had to let go due to numerous delays) by almost 20 percent. All you people in the Comox, Vancouver Island area are lucky as he is moving there mid September 2019. In every way, Patrice was a careful, conscientious, honest worker. I gave him my key and left him to it. We had a couple bumps but Patrice had solutions for each one after consulting with me. He knows his work, and is highly skilled. You can't go wrong hiring Patrice. He is a good and decent family man who cares deeply about his customer's satisfaction.
I had a roughed in basement to renovate. I decided to go with Patrice for this work, since he was able to provide me with a very reasonable quote (compared to 4 other companies). Tradespeople, like the electrician and HVAC, for example gave me a separate quote which was also very good.
Patrice also gave me an 8 week timeline to get this work done. Most of the other companies were giving a longer timeline.
He explained the work he would be doing along the way and was always available to answer questions.
Patrice accepted the fact that I wanted to do my own painting to save on the cost of the renovation, and he was ready to work around my schedule to accommodate me.
I am very pleased with the finished product!
I will certainly hire Patrice again for other work, if/when needed.
I can recommend him without hesitation.
Patrice did an excellent job fixing the drywall in my front hall corner which was two stories high! Then he did a wonderful job painting the hallway as well. Very professional job!
I will be calling him again for more work!
