Rene Rozon Construction

Rene and his team deserve the highest of ratings. Thoughtful, reliable, thorough and experienced, they keep their client well informed throughout the process. Having never done a major reno before, Rene provided options and solutions to help me prioritize and keep on budget.

Rene Rozon Construction did a total renovation of our basement in the late summer of 2013 including adding in a bathroom. Rene Rozon and his construction team are great. Rene is extremely knowledgeable and does high quality work. He was able to guide us with all the design elements and help our pictures of our dream basement become a reality. He starts the project on time, keeps to the time line and is clean and highly professional. The crew was clean and very respectful of our house. Rene is always positive and has a great sense of humour which is very important when you're knee deep in renovations. I will definitely have Rene and his crew back for more renovations and would highly recommend them to anyone.

We hired Rene based on the excellent reviews and we were not disappointed. The work we hired him for was to build that HUGE screened porch. He's sharp, on time and communicates well and his prices are fair.

After having hired Rene and his team to undertake a major renovation project in our home two years ago there was never any question as to who to hire to tackle our basement reno in the fall of 2013. The quality of the work done by Rene Rozon Construction is far above standard and having the peace of mind of knowing that the team will be there every day to complete the project is crucial. Rene's knowledge is extremely helpful and his ability to meet deadlines is invaluable. He has the capacity to communicate well with others and so we would be the first to recommend him to our friends and family.

This was our second major renovation project with Rene and his team, having had our basement redone from scratch in a previous house some 7 years ago. We purchased a beautiful home build in 1970 in Spring 2013, full of potential but requiring some major renovation work on the main and upstair floors (including the attic) as well as redoing the heating, plumbing and electricity in most of the house. Because we were still living abroad when we took possession of the house, this renovation job had the added complexity of being done while we were over 8000 kms away for the first 6 weeks of the work. Weekly Skype calls were set-up as well as quasi-daily sending of pictures to allow us to follow the progress of the work and answer any urgent questions. As is the case with most major renovations, there were some "surprises" along the way when walls or ceilings were removed only to find dangerous and faulty wiring, plumbing which had not been done according to Code and which posed an urgent fire or water leak damage if left unattended. Because this was our second time working with Rene, we felt absolutely comfortable giving him the keys to our new house for 6 weeks so he could have the place to himself to tear up floors, new staircase, knock down and rebuild walls and sand and stain existing floors in order to match new hardwood floors which we had him put in. Because he is a general contractor, Rene works with a team of "regulars" most of which we had already met 7 years ago during the previous renovation. The fact that they are still part of his extended team only confirmed the fact that high standards and standing behind your work were still the values they sought. Now that the work is completed, we get a kick out of showing the house to our new neighbours who cannot believe that this is the same house which they saw prior to our arrival. The whole feel and flow of the house have been transformed thanks to a clear vision from the new owners (us) but also because we hired someone who knew enough to suggest different ideas to help us achieve our vision but who was also experienced enough to warn us when he thought we were about to choose a product which might not match the flow and look of the house. Not only is the main renovation well done but the finishing is also above-par which makes the work look even better. Having a reliable contractor who surrounds himself with professionals is a luxury of sorts because we often read horror stories of renovation jobs gone wrong because of over-charging, unmet expectations or an inability for the contractor to achieve the vision of the home owner. To be able to count on a team who look after your home as if it were their own and who will apply the same standards to their work as you would for yours provides a peace of mind which is precious. We now find ourselves with a completely updated home which feels well-built and efficient, inviting and comfortable with an updated plumbing and electrical set-up designed to meet all regulatory standards. On top of this, all required insulation was put in during the renovation work, making the house much cheaper to heat and feeling warm or cool depending on the season. We would not hesitate to recommend Rene and his team for any renovation work as we have used him over two projects literally from the basement all the way to the attic. He has never failed to deliver and stands behind his work in case of any questions or adjustments once the work was finished.
