Altamax Construction & Renovation Inc.

We just ended a 2 year project (of a lifetime!) with Michael and since the beginning, we were well accompanied and counselled by a passionate individual that cares deeply about his project. We felt well understood, well heard and in confidence that Michael would treat our home like his own. The quality of work, even in the tiniest details is impressive. His contacts in the area, his general knowledge and his extended experience combined to a solid team, has helped us get what we were looking for and more. With Michael, quality is number one. No shortcuts. He is certainly not the cheapest, but he delivers a great quality vs your specific needs. Highly recommended! Je recommande Michael sans reserve...un vrai professionnel, passionné de son métier, qui a à cœur la qualité de son travail et de bein répondre aux besoins de ses clients!

We hired the Altamax crew to repair the deck on our chalet. The beams of the deck were sitting on a slowly shifting rocky terrain and needed to be stabilized. Michael and his team did a superb job of reinforcing the beams. They came in on time, on budget and were a pleasure to work with. I would feel fully confident in hiring them again for future renovations to our house.

Michael/Altamax are very professional, organized, and always follow up. I am familiar with building methods and was very happy to see that he is up to date with the latest building techniques and always went above minimum code in every step. His team and his sub-contractors were all very good at what they did. It was a pleasure to work with Michael/Altamax and I would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

Without any doubt I had complet confidence in Michael and the Altamax team to recreate my basement apartment in my new home. Built in 1957 there were unexpected surprises and new regulations to conform to. Michael was able to do the work quickly and efficiently due to his contacts in the industry. He always gave me options and was very aware of my budget. My home is now modern, safe and conform to modern regulations. Totally satisfied and highly recommend Michael and his team.

Excellent work, even under challenging conditions ( 200 y.o. house). patient to explain and discuss possible solutions, adaptable towards difficult situations. A-rating for the work executed. Fast, polite.

We hired Michael and his team back in 2017 for our first dream home on a mountain top in the laurentians. Altamax delivered what they promise, quality work, respecting dates. We did what the altamax slogan says, " we dreamed it and they built it" Thanks again for everything Michael

After hearing many nightmare stories about bad contractors, I did a lot of research before making the choice to hire Altamax to redo my common bathroom and I could not be more satisfied. I chose Altamax because of the fact that the pictures on the site (Houzz) showed attention to detail at every stage, had strong reviews, and when I sent out requests for information Michael responded quickly and listened to my needs. One of those needs was doing a complete overhaul on the bathroom in a short deadline right before the holidays. Not only did they deliver a beautiful finished product, they actually finished a couple of days before the deadline. I highly recommend Michael and his team and here’s why… * They are professionals and craftsmen who are passionate about what they do; * They showed up when they said they would (no waiting, no wondering, no need to follow up); * They were incredibly helpful and patient to explain things to me (and I asked a lot of questions!); * They suggested alternative solutions so I could choose the best option for me, as well as provided contacts to other highly qualified and professional tradesmen (plumber, electrician and painter); * Michael asked for feedback at every stage to ensure that what was being delivered was meeting my needs/wants; * they kept things tidy while working and cleaned up at the end of each day (I really appreciated this considering the bathroom is right off the kitchen and main living space!); * they were very flexible and adapted to me changing my mind as we went; * they even created a couple of custom pieces that were not in the initial discussions! * In addition to doing the bathroom, the guys were very flexible to do other small odds and ends like putting up light fixtures and picture frames in the adjacent rooms. All these things convince me that I made the right choice when hiring Altamax. Although a small job for them, this was a big deal to me - my first renovation in a newly purchased home. The attention to detail (from structural elements to creating custom pieces), these guys made me feel like this was the most important job they had. I now have a go-to team that I trust to take care of my home. Michael, Gilles, Nick, thank you so very much for a great experience!

Michael and his team at AltaMax did a great job at building a new deck and renovating a guest bathroom. They proved to be professional at what they do and used reliable subcontractors. Michael was great at communicating the process and timeline for the work to be done right from the first meeting. It is obvious that Michael takes pride in his work and goes to great length to make sure the client is fully satisfied. I would highly recommend AltaMax to anyone.

After seeing what Mike Lafigliola ( Altamax Construction) did for my boy friend, I was impressed with his incredible workmanship, and had a brand new kitchen and small powder room built in my home ( built early 1950's). There were a number of challenges, but Mike is very innovative, communicates well with his customers, and is a great coordinator with other tradespeople. He did not disappoint my expectations in him, with fair pricing and it was done very quickly. I am thrilled with results.

It was the first time my wife and I bought an older home that needed renovations. We were quite nervous about finding a contractor and had already met a few that we were not quite comfortable with. After speaking with Mike at Altamax on the phone and then meeting him in person, we knew we found the one that could wash away our worries. On budget, on target, professional, courteous and with solid communications, Altamax completed our project. They now have a customer for life. We highly recommend Altamax to anyone looking for a contractor that goes above and beyond and delivers high quality of work. Bravo and Thank You Altamax!

Mike and the team at Altamax were a great asset to my build In Wentworth Quebec, they delivered to my very difficult demands as my house was custom from start to finish. The quality of work and dedication they put into every day here was impressive to say the least. Overall very happy with theyre work, ill be calling them back for my next project on my land.

Mike at Altamax does terrific work. He is probably not the least expensive option around (but you get what you pay for) but he is sensitive to budgetary constraints and provides plenty of information about alternative choices to allow an informed decision. He is clearly an expert in his field. Also important is that he is highly reliable: he shows up when he says he will and stays at it until the job is done. And most important is that I trust him. He's a nice guy. I highly recommend him.

We hired Mike and his team to renovate our ensuite bathroom,a complete makeover. The original bathroom was a tiny cubicle with a closet door and a small corner shower. Mike extended the space of the bathroom by utilizing space from the entrance and corridor and now we have a beautiful bathroom that feels light and spacious. In undergoing the bathroom Reno, many other problems were apparent and needed urgent repairs: The wooden roof above the bathroom was rotten and infiltrated with water. Mike and his team worked diligently to get everything done and done well. We were grateful to have Mike because it was prime time for construction and availability can be difficult. We could see how well respected Mike is because he was able to make a phone call and his contacts showed up when needed, whether plumber, electrician or who be it. Mike connected us with his experts and was always available for updates and consultation. Always professional, polite and punctual. Bottom line: We LOVE our new barhroom! Many Thanks!

Having to work together on different projects for the past 10 years, Altamax has always exceeded my expectation by being very attentive to small details. Over the years, it became very easy to recommend Michael and his team. Keep up the good work!

I would like to thank the team of Altamax. I had them redo the interior of my office, finish my basement at my home and complete the backyard fence to match the patio. The fact that he did that was not a surprise, what was appreciated was that he did it all within budget. Thanks to the incredible work he did on my home I was able to sell my home within a couple months and made a serious profit. Michael you're awesome! thanks Brian

The following summarizes the reasons why we were overjoyed that Altamax worked on our project: From our first meeting with Altamax, Michael made a good impression. We felt that he was honest, straight-forward and knowledgeable. And we were right. We met two other candidates but did not get this feeling. During our project we discovered that he provided the following: 1)Tremendous project management capabilities. 2)Hard work and extra effort. 3)Attention to detail. 4)Excellent (bilingual) communications with both sub-contractors and ourselves. 5)Daily pictures of project progress. 6)Very sound technical knowledge, yet open-minded to new ideas and approaches. This is possibly one reason to explain his advanced knowledge. 7)Ability to detect and even anticipate problems in the field, and importantly: to provide solutions. 8)An eye for architectural value. This is truly a valued capacity as he offered many suggestions which, having been implemented, improved the enjoyment of our home. 9)Sound understanding of the Building Code and all the rules associated with residential building projects. 10)Maintained good relations with the neighbours. 11)Generosity with his time and attentiveness to our questions/concerns. I would not hesitate one second to recommend Altamax Construction to work on your home construction project; whether it be a new home or a renovation. Michael has a passion for construction. This is often heard in advertising, but during our project, and the many hours spent with Michael on the phone and on-site, I can personally guarantee his passion and focus for quality construction.

We phoned Michael at Altamax to estimate the renovation of our deck overlooking the lake. He spent the time with us to really understand our options to ensure the view on the lake was beautiful. The team at Altamax did an excellent job, they added small touches that made a difference in the quality of the work and even sent pictures as the job progressed. We highly recommend Michael and his team from Altamax.

Michael (and Tanya) preformed the required work fixing up our newly acquired chalet with excellence. They are trustworthy, professional, and personable. I would highly recommend Altamax!

Very professional, excellent quality and kept on schedule. Managed the job in the best interests of the homeowner and offered proposed solutions or suggested changes as needed. Always responded promptly to phone calls and email and provided pictures as the work progressed. I continue to use their services.

Michael de ALTAMAX Construction a trouvé une solution très efficace pour la ventilation , la répartition de la chaleur dans mon chalet. Sa solution avec ses experts, a réglé mon problème d'humidité dans l’entre-toit. Durant les travaux il ma expliquer, comment une maison ''respire'' et comment elle doit être entretenu pour qu'elle dure longtemps et que j’ai tout le confort durant l'hiver. Il m'a aussi donné plein de conseils pour faire la finition: comment me servir de mes outils et quels matériaux utiliser pour ce que je voulais faire. Il a été d'un soutient constant même après que sa partie du projet ait été réalisé. Sa connaissance dans touts les domaines de la construction, des produits et matériaux existants m'ont grandement aidé à faire des choix dont je suis pleinement satisfait aujourd'hui. Je tiens à dire que son intégrité et son professionnalisme m'ont impressionné et que je lui donnerai la gouverne de mes prochains travaux. Michael a pris soin de mon chalet comme si c’était le siens. Merci à vous, Michael Robert Lalonde

I had to build an addition on my post and beam cottage (which is far away) and needed a reliable contractor which was experienced in this type of construction. I came in contract with Mike from Altamax. He gave me a cost estimate which he honoured and build a quality addition. He was organized with his team and managed to complete the work on time. I strongly recommend Mike and Altamax all type of construction work.

We built our dream house on a piece of land we owned in the Laurentian. It was not our first house but it was the first time we did it from scratch. Michael (Altamax owner) was there every step of the way. He helped us during design with the architect, providing judicious advices. And this was even before we gave him the business. As general contractor, Michael assumed complete responsibilities for all aspect of the construction. From the road and sewage system to the detailed interior design finishing touches. He kept us informed and involved. He sent us pictures of the project as it evolved on almost a daily basis. There were no surprises. He completed the project on time and on budget. We are delighted with the work he did. His focus on details and on quality were just amazing. I would strongly recommend Altamax to my friends and family or to anyone that consider any construction project. They were highly professionnal individuals that value and love what they do. This translated into a beautiful house that we love. Surely the best contractor i have ever worked with.

I contracted Altamax to build a garage, renovate a kitchen and add an extension to our 1932 log home in Montebello Quebec. The quality of work was best in class of our many projects and homes we have built over some 40 years in Canada and the USA. We would strongly recommend Altamax to anyone planning to renovate, extend or build a new home.

We have been working with Michael and Tania for over 8 years. Always helpful and always does a professional job. We continue to have a respectful relationship.
