I have never had the pleasure of working with such a genuinely amazing furniture maker, woodworker, or really any sort of contractor. Dylan is truly in a league of his own.
He is professional, friendly, respectful and incredibly skilled, not to mention creative: he can not only bring by designs to life, but weighs in on problems or structural concerns with insight and wisdom that comes from years of great work.
I originally commissioned a drop leaf dining table, and I was so happy with his work, I had him build a console table for our audio/record station, and then hired him to build in bookshelves to populate a vacant area with awkward dimensions. I'm already dreaming up new projects for him.
If you're looking for a skilled craftsman, look no further. I can't imagine that anyone could find fault with the design or integrity of Dylan's work, and he is one of the most pleasant people you'll have the good fortune to meet.
Dylan Waugh and his team are totally reliable. Dylan provides you with a very detailed estimate and sticks to it. His workers stay on the job every day until it is completed, and he personally supervises each step of the way. They work well together, are efficient, courteous, and clean. I do not hesitate to recommend them.
Dylan Waugh and his team did an amazing job building my new basement stairs and framing my basement.
I originally posted on Handy Canadian - looking for (only) new stairs to replace my existing/unsafe ones. Dylan and his team did an amazing job of removing my old stairs and building new ones, customizing them to my specifications and to the 100-year old basement's less than square/level dimensions. His team was prompt, courteous and clean but most importantly delivered a high quality product. I was so pleased with the new stairs that I immediately hired Waugh General Contracting to also frame my basement. He again delivered an outstanding completed product.
During both projects (stairs & framing) there were some elements of the projects that had various options how to approach. Dylan consulted me on each 'fork in the road' providing me with a list of recommendations of how to tackle them and the pros & cons of each. With the background information, I was confident in making an informed decision on each of the 'variable' elements of the projects. Once I made my choice, Dylan again executed with precision and I'm ecstatic with the final result as well as the decisions made, during the process.
For each of the projects, I signed a contract with detailed description of work as well as price (materials/labour). In both cases, there were no cost overruns and I paid exactly the amount we had agreed to, allowing me to stay within my budget. In addition, the project was also completed in the timelines agreed upon.
I would recommend Waugh General Contracting for any of your general contracting needs. Thanks to Dylan and his team, my basement is well on its way.
Waugh General Contracting was a joy to have work on our home. we had a pretty ugly mess with a broken tube in our laundry room that caused water to flood and damage our front door flooring. Waugh General Contracting fixed everything in a very timely and efficient manner all while being VERY personable and professional. if my home, or any other property needed any kind of handy work, my first choice would be to call Dilan again and get his advice. very honest, and trustworty, and those can be difficult things to find in the contracting world.
