**★★★★★ — Michael Wilson, Feb. 2020**

> To sum up this review, my experience with Richard and team at Executive Contracting was excellent.
>
> Background (because it's tough to find a good contractor) - It was the spring and I was with a friend who mentioned that he was having a tree and some plants added to accent his new patio that was installed the previous fall. We went to check it out.  When we got there Richard explained how the stairs had shifted over the winter (new build) and not to worry he took care of it. He fixed the issue, added some support and best of all no charge. My friend didn't even know there was an issue. I thought at the time, this is someone who does quality work and takes pride in knowing it's done correctly. I need his business card.
>
> Project Planning - I contacted Executive Contracting, and had Richard come out to the house to see what I was planning. Richard made some suggestions based on the local bylaws that both my wife and I thought were as good or better than our original plan. We were also happy that Richard considered our budget when make his suggestions. Executive Contracting was not the cheapest quote but they were far from the most expensive and having seen a couple previous jobs, we had a level of trust that we didn't have in the other quotes we considered.
>
> Result - It was absolutely fantastic to be able to come home each day, see the progress and have it be exactly the way you hoped it would be when you envisioned it. I did ask for a couple of modifications on the fly that Richard was happy to accommodate. He was also quick to point out that he was on actually below budget and it was me that was over budget. :) In the end, the project was complete inline with the original quote, on time and everyone was happy with the result.
>
> I fully recommend contacting Executive Contracting for your next project. Swing by to see the work they did at my place if you want a first hand reference.

**★★★★★ — Dianne & Rick Green, Dec. 2019**

> Richard completely reno'ed our main bathroom recently and we couldn't be happier -- professional results with a personal touch!  His commitment to the job, excellent knowledge and problem-solving skills, and sound advice when making decisions all mean we've found our go-to contractor for future projects.  :)

**★★★★★ — Milan Cosovic, Nov. 2019**

> Glad we chose Executive Contracting for our retaining wall. Richard was awesome to work with and did not rush us with our decision. The work done is very professional and there where no surprise costs in the end. It was a big job and we are glad we chose Executive Contracting.

**★★★★★ — Karen Ali, Oct. 2019**

> We had several large armour stone steps that sunk and needed to be leveled with our patio. Richard at Executive Contracting did a great job leveling our steps. The job was completed on time and as quoted. It was clear that Richard takes pride in his workmanship. We highly recommend Executive Contracting for your stone work.

**★★★★★ — Nebojsa Milosavljevic, Oct. 2019**

> Replaced a old pressure threaded wood retaining wall with stone.WOW what a difference. Richard listened to our needs and also with his recommendations,it came out looking great.I would  recommend Richard 100%

**★★★★★ — HU-78315597430, Oct. 2019**

> I have used Executive Contracting for 2 projects now (driveway and back patio).   Both turned out fantastic!   I had my own vision of what I wanted but richard also provided some other options and clearly stated why his options had merit.  In the end I went with his suggestions and have absolutely no regrets.   My driveway pictures are on his website.   Feel free to reach out if you're considering Executive Contracting.  You won't regret the decision.

**★★★★★ — HU-810106813, Oct. 2019**

> Executive Contracting installed a beautiful stone driveway, new gardens and lawn for me. I am extremely happy and satisfied with their work and would not hesitate to hire Richard and his crew again.

**★★★★★ — Wes Kropf, Oct. 2019**

> I have been working with Richard and John at Executive Contracting for the past 3 years.  The work has been done in a timely and professional manor.  Attention to detail is very important to Richard and he is willing to work with the client on designs and accents to make your project stand out!
