I reached out to Eric at Seven Pillars for a quote on some much needed painting and touch ups in our home. Eric came to our home to do an estimate within 1 day. His quote was very reasonable so we booked him for the job. I couldn’t be happier with the work he did. I have used many different painters over the years and they always did a good job but never a great job. Eric did a great job!!!! His attention to detail and professionalism was second to none. I look forward to using him in the future when we have more painting and bathroom renovations to do. I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend him. Thanks Eric and it was a pleasure dealing with you!
We love our new bathroom and entryway. The final results exceeded our expectations. Eric was always professional and we really appreciated his close attention to detail. He was able to offer suggestions and alternatives which resulted in an improved final product and lower costs but was always willing to go ahead with our final decisions. He provided regular updates and calls, emails and texts were replied to promptly. The workspace was cleaned up at the end of every day and he tried to minimize any disruption to our lives. He even kept checking in on our kenneled dog who did not like the noise required by the demolition. We would absolutely recommend Seven Pillars.
Eric recently finished working on our main upstairs bathroom and ensuite bathroom, both were complete overhauls, and we had Eric expand the ensuite into a previously unused closet space. I'm really impressed with the work that Eric and his team did. From start to finish Eric ensured everything went smoothly. Eric, Dave and everyone else that Eric works with were super friendly and had an obvious sense of pride in their work. Eric was great at communicating what was going on and when things would be completed (project took exactly the time Eric said it would and if there was specific delay during the project he let us know exactly why). Eric was also able to help us out sourcing some of the materials required when our original designs wouldn't work which was a huge help. Eric also has an eye for the small details and ensured that everything was completed the way we intended. Like any project there were some small bumps along the way and I think that what makes Eric stand out from other contractors is that he ensured the issues were resolved to our satisfaction, and it was clear that it was a priority to him to get the problem resolved. We'll definitely be calling Eric and Seven Pillars again for work on our house!
We had a crack in our bathtub and needed to have the whole unit replaced with a new one. Large mirror and tiles had to be removed to accommodate this project.
Eric and his team did an absolutely perfect job in a timely manner. It was even done at about $500 less than estimated cost.
This is the second project Seven Pillars has done for us and this to %100 satisfaction!!!
Seven Pillars was very easy to work with and communicated well throughout the process. They were very organized, respectful of our home and clean. The project was on time and on budget. Any issues were discussed immediately and they provided options for resolution. We are very happy with the finished product.
Having never gone through any renovation or development before we we're nervous about starting this next endeavour - especially after hearing personal horror stories from friends and family.
We met with 3 contractors, one of whom was Eric from Seven Pillars. My partner and I knew upon meeting Eric he was the one. Upon our consultation he took the time the learn what we wanted and needed for our home. With that, he made the extra effort to build a strong rapport and trust.
Eric and all his contractors were friendly, easy to get in contact with, on time, quiet while working and clean.
Since completing it's been about 4-6 weeks and we are very happy with the finished product. Our friends and family who have seen basement are also loving it. Seven Pillars met every expectation and I would strongly recommend them.
Right from the beginning, working with Seven Pillars Custom Building to develop our basement, was an invaluable experience. We chose Seven Pillars as it was clear during the quotation phase, that Eric (the owner) really knew what he was doing. He demonstrated an exceptional ability to listen and also provide a variety of options based on the vision.
While the price was not the cheapest, using this contractor was worth every penny. His team was highly professional and respectful at all times. They spent 20 minutes at the end of each work day vacuuming, sweeping and cleaning up as if it was their own home. Eric also managed the permitting and inspections, making the processes very easy to go through.
Also, I really appreciated that the project budget, schedule and approval stages were well managed as Seven Pillars used a mobile app that was fully accessible and kept up-to-date.
When I had questions and called Eric, he was very responsive (either immediately picking up or responding the next business day).
The outcome was a well designed basement that included adding to our property an additional bedroom (with beautiful french doors), full bathroom, living room, storage room and mechanical room; a great return on investment.
A renovation is no small project, and most people will probably tell you they wouldn't want to do it again, but not me! Seven Pillar's took my old basement and made it new again! Eric and his crew are professional, clean, honest and driven to provide excellent service. They weren't the cheapest quote I received but more detailed, and as the saying goes, you get what you pay for! We are extremely happy with the outcome of our basement, it was done within budget, with additions, and within the timeframe first discussed. It turned out better than we ever thought. We very much appreciated Brad's problem-solving and ingenuity, putting in little touches like a valve cover turned nightstand with 3 tiers. We liked Eric's energy from day 1 through to the finish, and have no regrets for choosing Seven Pillars Custom Building Inc. I will be continuing with them for more projects in the future, guaranteed.
Pro's: Quality, Timeliness, Professionalism, Cleanliness
Con's: Price (but we felt we got what we paid for and not )
We are so happy with our renovations! Eric was absolutely awesome to work with, and was always willing to be on site when we needed him to help us sort out the little issues that popped up along the way. We can't say enough good things about Brad. His attention to detail and the quality of his carpentry really stands out.
Would absolutely recommend Seven Pillars to friends and family looking for a contractor to update or expand their home!
We hired Seven Pillars to fully develop our basement and detached garage.
Right from the beginning of the design stage, it was clear we had made the right choice. Their attention to detail, and options for design and layout were meticulous and vety well thought out.
Their work was absolutely outstanding, and their customer service was excellent! We asked for our basement to match the style and quality of the rest of the home, and they completely exceeded our expectations! They even went to great lengths to design and build a built in custom desk, bookshelves, and drawers in the basement bedroom. Nothing was too difficult for them to achieve in relation to our requests including soundproofing and air conditioning installation!
The detached garage development was quite amazing! Our original home builder built us a partially (poorly) finished garage with severe mould issues. Seven Pillars came in and properly remediated the mould issues, and then completely finished our garage complete with gas heating and waterproof walls! Fantastic!
If you are considering a new build, renovation, or repair, seriously look no further, you will not be disappointed with Eric and the team at Seven Pillars!
