They are very good at problem solving and collaborating and are enjoyable to work with. They take the time to make sure that the work is done correctly, as opposed to rushing through the work like some contractors do. Their knowledge is extensive and it shows that they care about the work they do and take pride in their workmanship and the products they produce.
We hired Dan to replace a structural beam in the basement of our 100+ year old home and are very happy with his work and the results. There were many challenges with this project and Dan handled all of them with ease and expertise. His estimate for the work was clear and he was very diligent in handling the permits and keeping us up to date with the progress and start date for the work. His ability to take the initiative to communicate at every step of the process was much appreciated- we did not ever have to call or wonder because he was always on top of keeping us informed. He was respectful of our space and managed to come in under time and under budget. Finally, Dan was very detail oriented and knowledgeable throughout the process and seemed to maintain very positive energy despite the inherent frustrations of this type of job. Thanks again!
Dan built a 400 sq ft cabana (slab on grade) for me from scratch. The original proposal was extremely professional: clear, detailed, leaving nothing out. He followed up by delivering exactly as promised, with several upgrades based on sound recommendations. Workmanship was excellent, and the cost was reasonable. Although the weather (late fall-early winter) provided some challenges to the schedule, Dan clearly communicated his plans so I knew exactly what was happening. I found Dan to be knowledgeable about materials, methods, and trades subcontractors. I am very happy with the result and would gladly hire Rhino for any other home improvement projects that I am involved with.
We hired Dan to remove the existing glass backsplash in our kitchen, and to replace it with a new marble mosaic. We also asked him to put up a glass mosaic accent wall in our powder room.
Dan's work speaks for itself; it's not only professionally finished, he goes the extra mile to ensure no corners are cut (he installed all new drywall in the kitchen as opposed to patching here and there behind the backsplash), and that his clients are more than satisfied. I would not only recommend Dan to someone else, I'd hire him back in an instant!
From my initial phone call to the final post-project follow-up, I have been delighted by all elements of my experience with Rhino.
I recently engaged Rhino (Dan Timothy) to remove the collapsing 80-year old plaster from my living room ceiling and replace it with a new drywall ceiling. The final product is lovely, including a very elegant transition between the new ceiling and the original plaster walls, and paint mixed especially to match.
Communication was always timely, courteous, cheerful and informative (very informative!). Estimate was competitive (and accurate), Dan Timothy presented a contract for the project (great comfort for anyone who has ever been burned by "gentlemen's agreement") and delivered as and when promised.
Great care was taken to minimize the disruption to the rest of my living space while the project was underway, and I felt comfortable that my home was being treated respectfully.
Over the course of the project, Dan made several suggestions for ways to improve the finished product - all of which I felt perfectly comfortable to accept or reject (no high-pressure sales tactics here!). I am grateful that he thought to suggest adding pot-lights.
The icing on the cake was Dan's willingness to share expertise (and tools!) above-and-beyond the requirements of the contracted project. With helpful coaching, I finally got that down-spout taken care of!
Rhino has my unreserved endorsement. I will definitely call Dan for my next ('cause there's always another one!) project.
I was delighted with the job that was done for me by Rhino Home Improvment. Dan Timothy was an easy person to comunicate with and had no issue meeting all my needs. He was also there every day from the first through the last day of the reno. His workmanship was flawless and I would hire them again in an instant.

Rhino Home Improvement constructed an entrance from our garage to our basement. We couldn't be more satisfied with the work done by Dan. He took care of getting the engineer and city permits and installed the entrance professionally and according to all applicable building codes. We now have a great new entrance and a permit signed off by the city inspector. The job was done quickly and we were kept well informed of his progress. Dan takes the trouble to do things right and was very flexible in delivering just what we wanted. And Dan definitely goes the extra mile. I would happily recommend him to anyone for any kind of renovation.
Rhino did the following for me: new roof, drywall ceiling repair, plumbing including bathroom shower, sink and kitchen sink installation. His work was always clean, properly and professionally done and completed in a timely manner. Any agreed upon criteria, either by contract or verbally, was always met. This contractor is trustworthy and knows his work very well. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. His rates are reasonable and he's worth every penny. Book him now! He's busy because he's good!
