REVIEWS
It is many months after our Reno was completed and I am still smiling at the experience and the quality of work brought by Ian and his wonderful team. They were respectful of our home, or family and the definition of honesty, integrity and respect. They focused on our project until it was done and the communication was superb. Unlike many contractors, with Tara construction there was at least one person working on our house most days until it was done and the quality was excellent. Not to mention their willingness to tackle new challenges (like my hidden wall idea) and reuse materials (like our old shelves). I am really happy with the experience and the final product. Couldn't have asked for more as looks like it was built as part of the home and not an add-on. Items completed:
custom built mudroom
created hidden wall in front entrance and associated hidden doors for both the mudroom and existing bedroom
converted front closet to bathroom -reused existing shelving from below
moved and re-sized existing shelving to different wall and replaced tiling in tv room
converted old bi-fold closet to functional closet with shelving & large recycling drawer
Initially we chose Tara Construction not only because they not only gave us a fair quote for the work of renovating our condo, but they also supported women working in the trades, which was important to us.
The renovation is now complete and we simply could not be happier with both the result and the process. Ian was a wonderful communicator, responding promptly and clearly to our concerns and questions. The work itself including plumbing, electrical, new ceilings, recessed lighting, new flooring, wall removal, shiplap installation, bathroom remodelling and overseeing the trades who installed the new kitchen is truly top-notch - and came in on budget and on time!
Ian took full leadership of the project. He even returned to the site on a Friday evening at the end of a very long week, to sort out an unexpected issue and make sure everything was running smoothly. Ian and his team also worked quite well with the on-site condo supervisor, following all condo rules and regulations to perfection.
We could not be happier with our decision to choose Tara Construction for our condo renovation project and benefited from both Ian's excellent work ethic and his wonderful Irish sense of humour along the way.
If you are lucky enough to choose Tara Construction do your renovation I have no doubt you will be as grateful as we are that you did!
Ian wants the work. He wants the job. He shows up promptly to give an estimate. I explained that I needed to get the job done as soon as possible. My wife was in the hospital, and they wouldn't release her until her home bathroom was functional again. Ian worked all day Sunday so she could come home Monday! He did the whole job in one day. What a guy! Ian is a pleasant man, and does the job talking things over with you. He always leaves the choice up to you. Thank you.
I strongly recommend Ian and his team at Tara Construction. They have just completed a full bathroom installation in my basement – literally from the ground up! The project was professionally completed as quoted and looks amazing! Throughout the process, Ian kept me fully informed as to progress, unexpected ‘hiccups’, timelines and potential cost savings while respectfully dealing with the family living in the house and pandemic constraints. I would not hesitate to work with Ian again…. He has earned my trust with his commitment, professionalism and attention to detail. On behalf of everyone who will enjoy using the space for years to come - thank you, Ian!
We needed baseboards installed quickly before our scheduled painter arrived on our renovation project. Ian gave us a quote and fit us into his busy schedule just in time. He was quick and skilled and we're so thankful we didn't attempt to do it ourselves! They look amazing! We'll be calling Ian for all our future projects!
