Message: We had a great experience when Des built our basement. His work quality was superb. His work ethics was excellent. He was very punctual & very accommodative. Furthermore, his work cost was very reasonable. Our basement is now the envy of our friends & neighbors. We highly recommend him for any upper scale renovation work.

Message: It has been a pleasure having Des finish our basement. Not only was he reasonably priced, but he did fantastic work. You can tell he takes great pride in his work- he treated our basement reno like it was his own, with an unbeliveable worth ethic, great attention to detail and some great suggestions that just made the final result amazing. Unlike some other contractors (like those Mike Holmes has to clean up after), Des does quality work, is very reliable and completed the job on time. I will and have already referred Des to a number of friends who have home renovations they have been waiting to do.

Message: May 31, 2010 My husband and I have been trying to find a Contractor for months to renovate our basement. Every Contractor we found, always had a story about how long and costly it would be. There was always something. In April, my family asked us to host a 3 in 1 Party and that is when we knew that we had to find a Contractor we can trust to do the job. One of my neighbours told me that they knew a couple who had their basement renovated and it looked amazing, I ask them to find out who did the job, that is how we came to meet Des. We contacted him and the next day he came by. His quote was very reasonable. He was also informed that we needed the job to be completed for a May 15 party. He not only completed the job on time, but it also looked Amazing. Everyone at the party could not believe how remarkable my basement looked. The bathroom job is first class. Des is Trustworthy and takes pride in his work. He also gave us great ideas as well. I totally recommend Des to anyone. Keep up the good work Des!

Message: Des came highly recommended and in turn we will definitely recommend him to our friends. Des installed hardwood flooring in a hallway and 3 bedrooms and made and installed wood stairs. The stairs are a perfect match to the existing job. We are extremely happy with his work. We were also very impressed with his commitment to the schedule he worked out for us and his honesty and friendliness. We will definitely be calling on him again for our bathroom and kitchen.

Message: It was difficult for me to find a contractor who understood my personal and professional goals for my basement renovation. On one side, a commercial gym, with spa, steam shower and specific items. On the personal side, a stone fireplace (Des recommendation), kid's play area, sewing corner and hubby's big tv. Everyone had to be pleased. Des was really good to work with, great suggestions and ideas to save on dollars and was awesome at problem solving when we would reach new challenges. He was a comfort to have around and I always felt he was part of the family. My 10 month old will miss his daily visits with Des. Des is very professional and knowledgeable at his trade, he has many skills for a one man operation. I can't thank him enough for his great work. My gym looks very professional and each of my clients love it. I highly recommend Des, he has old school work ethics that you just don't see anymore. He will return to do additional work in our house.

Message: Des came highly recommended to me as a very capable contractor. He had finished the basement of a friend of mine and did an exceptional job. I asked him for a quote to install hardwood in my stairs, on the landing at the top of the stairs and on the ledge over the stairs. His quote was very competitive and his estimate on material was almost bang on. Des works hard, is a stickler for detail and was very respectful of my house as he always cleaned up thoroughly. The finished product turned out better than our expectations and looks amazing. I would highly recommend Des and will provide a reference upon request. Thanks for doing a wonderful job Des and I plan to hire you again.
