LDH Construction Ltd.

Extremely disappointed with Lucas Hanrath. Extremely unprofessional behavior. Job was started late. Multiple trades not paid by him although he was paid in full. Innumerable occasions when he stated he would be on site but never showed up. Some days trades were waiting for him on the job for supplies for hours on end, with nothing to do because he did not bring supplies. The only work he did himself was incredibly badly done, poorly thought out, and done in a hurry and had to be completely removed and done again by someone else. Provided many unbelievable excuses as to why things were not done on time or as to why he would not show up when he stated he would. Would only become available transiently if when he thought he could get more money from us. Obtained fake invoice from supplier in order to embezzle more money for a door which cost a third of what he tried to get from us, and ultimately he ordered the wrong door anyway. Ultimately, had to fire him and we were extremely pleased to do so. Trades that worked for him, are still contacting us, and dropping by hoping to be paid, and wondering where he is.... Job started in July, 2015, and still not finished. I could go on and on. I gather in the past that he did good work, and it was reliable. I wonder what happened to him.

Stay away from this builder. He is unreliable. Started a large, high-end basement renovation this year in April 2015 which was to be done by June 30, 2015. The job is half done but 90% paid. Lucas Hanrath does not answer our phone calls or e-mails, has moved out of his house, and has told us through one of his sub-trades that he cannot complete our project. He has left us high and dry and now his trades are calling us because, although he took our money, he has not paid his guys.

Hired this company to do tenant improvements in a professional office space. Originally was easy to work with and accommodating to any changes needed as build went along. Approaching opening day, promised to have things finished, but had not completed project. Window casings and baseboards only half done. window framing and glass installation unfinished. Wrong door swing ordered and not fixed. Washroom unfinished. City inspections failed because of improper or incomplete work. Over 4 weeks go by without any work done and I have to work in an unfinished space. Lame excuses one after another, and eventually stops returning calls/texts. Would absolutely NOT recommend this builder. Totally unprofessional handling of the end of the project and very poor quality workmanship. **update: sub-contractors have now placed liens on my property since LDH has not paid anyone out of the money I paid him.

I am a supplier that Lucas uses quite often. He his very accurate in his attention to details before ordering any product. Lucas researches all the different options and then presents these to his clients, so they have choices. He is always on top of delivery dates and times to make sure products arrive when they are suppose too. He his is very professional, and I would hire him to do work for me.

Hired this company to enlarge and install a new kitchen window, and install new doors through out our house. Also to do all the casing and Baseboards in our new house. Very professional and friendly. Came on time and finished in record time. He ordered our window for us, made all the arrangements. Would highly recommend this company. I was a contractor before and have very high standards. Ldh met all my expectations. I will be using them again to build our new deck.

I am an interior Designer and in this business you are only as good as the trades you recommend. I am never hesitant to refer people to LDH construction. I have used LDH for my own home, the home of friends and also my clients and I would recommend Lucas from LDH again because he consistently does a great job and always is a pleasure to work with!
