Four Elements Construction

When we decided to do renovations to our home, we got quotes from and interviewed three renovation companies. In the end we decided to go with Four Elements. Our goal for the renovation was to update and freshen the look of our home, add counter space and cupboards to our kitchen and change the jetted tub in the ensuite bathroom to a large shower with the caveat that it not look like a renovation in the end. We feel that we achieved the goals for our renovation and the kitchen and the master bath look fantastic. We are extremely pleased with the result. Joseph, Peter and their crew were great to work with. Peter, was always available when we had questions, or wanted to discuss options or changes. We kept a close eye on the renovations all throughout the process and Peter was fine with that and welcomed our input. Peter also worked very hard to have us back into our home on time as we moved into a condo while the renovations were being completed – and all of this through COVID restrictions. Joseph was also very helpful in providing updates to where the cost of the renovations were at. We love the updated look of our home and are extremely pleased with the work that Four Elements did and would highly recommend them.

After researching renovation companies and reading reviews, I chose Three Elements for my renovation project and I couldn't be happier with my choice. I have a 1950's home which required major work on the main floor and basement. Peter and Joseph were so great to deal with although on site Peter was my main contact. Their communication was excellent, very responsive to messages, progress stages and the budget. The quality of their work is excellent, the house was always kept clean and I always felt confident I could trust in the work being done right. I wanted to be very involved in the project and Peter always made me feel welcome to provide input at any stage. The renovation turned out beautiful, I highly recommend Four Elements Construction to anyone looking for quality work, great design and passionate owners who clearly care about the work they do. Thanks again Peter and Joseph and all crew involved!

Extremely professional team of employees! They made each step of the renovation easy. Greater still is the fact that they stand by the quality of their work and make sure everything is done to your specifications. We used them 3 years ago for the renovation of our ensuite bathroom and again this year for a larger renovation project. We will definitely be using them in the future. Thank you Andrew, Peter, and your amazing team of skilled professionals!!!

I had a full basement and kitchen renovation this summer, perfectly timed with the start of the pandemic. Through it all Peter, Andrew and their crew were excellent at keeping me up to date on what was happening, and when I could expect workers in my home. Because I was working from home they were able to give me a heads up when there would be a lot of noise which was much appreciated. They did a wonderful job helping me plan and connected me with an interior designer when I needed some guidance. I am so happy with the end result and can't say enough about the great experience-highly recommend!

We hired Four Elements to complete our basement. The basement was an untouched space (insulated only) and we had a list of things we wanted included in the basement development. Four Elements delivered on everything! The process was generally very smooth, with only a few brief delays (biggest delay was waiting for city permit- out of Four Elements control). Big projects take time to organize and we were given updates throughout the development. Joe and Peter are both very good natured and kind guys who genuinely care about the finished product. They are very transparent on pricing and give detailed updates and a full itemized accounting of the project at completion. Our basement is beautiful and we still can't believe that Peter and his trades were able to squeeze the huge tub my fiance wanted into the small bathroom space, without subtracting any of our other wants! Anyone who has seen our basement raves about it - but most importantly, having this beautiful area is such a bonus to our living space. It is very true that you get what you pay for in life, and this is no exception. There may be cheaper companies out there, but you will never regret hiring Four Elements. I am so glad they were the company we chose. I'm a fairly particular client and I would hire them again in a second. Thanks again Joe and Peter! Hope to see you guys for a glass of wine when this pandemic is finally over!!!

We had an amazing experience with the Four Elements team. We have dealt with other contractors in the past for significant renovations on other homes and have always felt stressed when working through our projects. The Four Elements team was one of the most professional organizations that we have worked with. Their organization, accountability, and openness with respect to our project put us at ease immediately. The presentation of the quote and the detailed drawings from the interior designer really assisted in ensuring the project turned out the way we had hoped. We never felt ignored and were always confident that any issues would be dealt with. The final review of the workmanship and review of the final bills was 100% transparent. We would highly recommend them and in fact have already. Our friends have been equally satisfied with the experience. We will use them again on our next project.

Four Elements completed our home renovation in early 2020. The reno included remodelling our kitchen and living room, refinishing our hardwood, new bathrooms, tiling, carpeting, painting, lighting. We are thrilled with the end result. Four Elements was always very responsive to any concerns and questions. The subs that did work were qualified and always very respectful. We would and have recommended Four Elements to others.

It was a pleasure working with Peter and Joseph during our renovation. All concerns were handled with professionalism and followed up accordingly. Many thanks, Mark and Lurdes Logan

Thanks to Four Elements Construction Inc., our renovation project turned out better than we ever dreamed. Joseph, Peter and their excellent trades people paid particular attention to detail, our needs, and they kept us informed every step of the way. They worked closely with us, had several options available, and kept us within our budget. We renovated the entire main floor as well as the second floor. The difference between the before and after is stunning. We have had many compliments and lots of praise from family and friends on the completion of the renovation. We are extremely happy with the work Four Elements did. We highly recommend them.

As we embarked on a whole home renovation, we thought we’d end up with a referral from a friend or family member. However, we ended up finding Four Elements Construction through Houzz.com. Based on the multiple outstanding reviews, we chose to include them on our shortlist of contractors to contact about renovating our home. Right from our initial meeting, I appreciated Peter’s kindness, professionalism, enthusiasm, and passion for home renovation and this project. We ultimately chose Four Elements because we felt Peter’s vision for the house most closely matched ours. What transpired over the next several months turned our simple plan (to renovate my parent’s 27 year-old house for our family) into our dream home. All of Four Elements' subcontractors were amazing to work with and I would hear repeatedly how well they thought of Peter. Because of 4E’s great reputation, they have developed excellent relationships with an exceptionally strong group of trades and the quality is reflected in our home. Peter himself has over 30 years of home building experience and is only satisfied if things are done right. I think he had the foam insulators back to the house three times because he noticed areas I would never have known about. Because of Peter’s integrity, diligence and eye for detail, we have full confidence in the quality of work done. This house is built better than the original! 4E is a design-build company, and only through experiencing the renovation process first hand with 4E was I able to understand and appreciate what that means. How many builders are flexible enough to incorporate a custom repurposed barn door and window? Moreover, Peter’s creative suggestions fuelled our project. In fact, one of them I initially shelved as “pie in the sky” has become one of the most anticipated features of our home. They truly are collaborative in their approach to home renovation and our home is uniquely “us” because of it. As with many projects with such a large scope, managing time and costs became a challenge, in no small part due to the City permitting process and weather. Peter and Joseph mitigated and managed both of these factors well. They were accountable, open and fair. We are grateful for their integrity, care and commitment to build us a beautiful and quality home. Honestly, there are so many more awesome details I could share about our experience with 4E and the people who helped build our home. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Peter and Joseph through this process and am amazed at their level of professionalism, warmth and care combined uniquely to make them an outstanding company. I am thankful for the many Providential moments and decisions that occurred during our renovation, the most critical one being our choice of Four Elements to be our contractor. We highly recommend Four Elements to anyone who desires to craft a beautiful home for their family. Thank you Peter and Joseph, there are no words to fully express our appreciation and gratitude to you both! - Manilia & Steve

Peter Russel and team are amazing. Peter patiently work with me on design; ideas on how to cut costs but maintain quality and a few scope changes. The work was done on schedule with respect for the space with an end result that exceeded all expectations. Peter kept his word with regards to budget; work, quality and schedule. Amazing company to work with. While friends were engaged in renovation 'hell', our renovation proceeded without any issues. Additionally, there was a minor problem a year later and Peter stayed true, honoring his warranty commitment.

We count ourselves fortunate to have found Four Elements Construction, Inc and to have hired them as our renovation project company! We cannot express fully enough what an excellent job they did, attending to every detail in a timely manner, and with outstanding craftsmanship by each and every tradesman they employ! Ours was an extensive reno and build, and it turned out even more beautifully than we could’ve imagined. Under Peter’s and Joseph’s careful attention, and with their experienced and patient advice to us, our home turned out simply wonderful. During the renovation, our family experienced several unfortunate and sad events which necessitated a few delays in our anticipated finish date, for which Peter and Joseph were gracious and kind in changing their work calendar for us. We would definitely recommend Four Elements Construction, Inc to anyone wanting professional quality work, attention to every minute detail, consideration of individual tastes, decor and needs, and a genuine care for their customers! Paul and Gloria.

We entered into the renovation world with much trepidation, however, choosing For Elements Construction quickly eased our fears. With Peter as our contractor, the remodeling of our kitchen and bathrooms exceeded our expectations. Peter takes the time to get to know his clients and their needs, this showed throughout our renovations and is a quality that I wish all contractors possessed. We (and our home), were treated with the upmost respect, and this was shown consistently by all of the trade persons that were obviously hand picked by Four Elements. I would HIGHLY recommend this company, and would not hesitate in hiring them again.

Great company to deal with, Peter takes pride in the work that their crews do and always kept us informed of what was happening. When problems with the house cropped up he offered professional advice and gave us options on how to proceed. Pricing was competitive for the high quality of work and service provided. Highly recommend them, great leadership, friendly and skilled tradesmen and from top to bottom take pride in the work provided and work with your budget

My wife and I could not be happier with the service provided by Peter and the Four Elements team for our home renovation. I highly recommend Four Elements Construction and they will be my first choice for any future construction needs. We had been working on our renovation for over three years before calling Four Elements so the decision about who to pick to handle our second story addition was not taken lightly. After our first meeting with Peter we were immediately put at ease. He is a true professional with a great eye for detail. Throughout our project he recommended suggestions and changes that contributed to a product that exceeded our expectations. He consistently kept us up to date on progress and went above and beyond to keep the project timelines on track. The quality of the workmanship performed was excellent and the trades were always respectful and courteous while working on site. Thanks again to Peter and the Four Elements Team for our wonderful experience! -Ben and Teryn

Just imagine a sketch of an incredible room destined for sunlight and a sense of serenity. Then step back and watch as Four Elements Construction turns that drawing into a surreal piece of art. Tom and I witnessed firsthand, the expertise and professional knowledge that goes into a project engineered by Peter and Joseph. Their diligence shown from start to finish is absolutely "top of the line". Our "beach theme" sunroom is our place of solace. It's where we can relax everyday, throughout all seasons of the year. Thank you Four Elements Construction. Hiring you to create our dream room was the best decision we ever made. -Joanne and Tom

We hired Four Elements Construction to complete a major renovation on our home for us. We wanted changes to our kitchen, laundry area, main floor bathroom, some living room upgrades, new lighting, new paint throughout the house and some new windows and doors. Initially Peter met with us a few times and provided us with a quote and a timeline of what we could expect throughout the renovation. We asked for his references and he happily gave them for us to follow up with. We were given good reviews on his previous work which made us confident in his abilities. Due to Peter's overall organization, presentation and reputation, he was our top choice for our project. Through the design phase, Peter provided ideas, understood and expanded on our needs and provided suggestions on what he thought would work well in our house. Peter kept detailed notes on our requests and gave us a list of suppliers that we were to visit. Everyone on the list was FANTASTIC to work with. Each was their own professional in their respective field and a such a pleasure to deal with. Due to Peters' quest for high quality work, Four Elements Construction has established a contact list of suppliers that is second to none. He really did a good job putting this supplier list together and it made the shopping experience easy for us. During initial demolition, his crew was efficient, safety conscious and respectful of property. Peter was a regular visitor to the project and provided ongoing supervision and regular updates about the status of the renovation. The first month seemed to be a blur with so much activity going on, but Peter kept a steady stream of trades coming through the house to ensure time was used efficiently. He set up meetings and kept us advised on what was occurring. We were able to approach Peter with any concerns regarding trades and he rectified the issue immediately. He took a proactive approach to safety, dealing with any concerns quickly. He also advised us of structural issues and the necessary corrective action. About halfway through the renovation, a new partner joined Four Elements Construction: Joseph. We saw him at the jobsite a few times, but generally he held down the fort at the office and made sure that things were running smoothly behind the scenes. Joseph possesses many of the same traits that Peter has and is an asset for Four Elements Construction. Although no job is without challenges, I believe that Peter tried his hardest to cater to the customer to make the renovation a pleasant experience. After the renovation was completed, he had a couple of deficiencies come up. I am pleased to say that Peter, and the warranty that Four Elements provides, does follow up any issues are rectified and ensure that the work is completed to a satisfactory standard. Four Elements Construction did a very good renovation on our house and we are very happy with the results. We would use them again in the future for any renovation needs. Peter was very professional, knowledgeable, prided himself on the finish product and provided good communication regarding the project timeline.

We were very fortunate to have stumbled across Peter and Four Elements Construction on the Houzz app when looking for someone to complete a home renovation. Before we purchased the house, we had Peter come check the place out, give us many ideas on changes that could be made, and provide us with an extremely detailed quote for the full-home renovation. Right from that point we knew Peter was very organized and the one we would choose to complete this project for us. We purchased the acreage and, not long after, Peter and his crews started on the demo. In the mean time we were able to visit each of the vendors to select our cabinets, flooring, lighting and the rest of the finishings. Peter sent us to vendors who were wonderful to deal with and extremely helpful. Sometimes it was tough to know if what we selected would be close to the budget that was given to us in the quote, but with help from these individuals we were able to stay basically right on budget in our selections. The only areas we ended up spending more on were added in during the project and Peter created change requests for this. Being that we owned the home and were able to check out the work that was going on at any point, we were incredibly impressed at how clean the worksite was kept. From that alone you know how selective Peter is in the trades he chooses to work with and always has them keeping the site organized and tidy. Another reason we would recommend Four Elements is that we were updated constantly on where the project was at or what would be completed that day/week. This was helpful in seeing how things were lining up with the timeline and it was nice to know which trades would be in the home and when certain noticeable changes were being completed. Overall we are so happy and impressed with the end result of our beautiful home and the quality of the renovation. We have had so many compliments from people coming through and cannot thank Peter at Four Elements (and all of his trades) enough!

Based on a recommendation from a friend, we hired Peter and Four Elements to renovate our basement in a newly purchased 1990-build home. Despite limited access to the home prior to possession, Peter worked with us to design and budget our renovation. The renovation was to fully finish and redesign a partially finished basement. It was a challenging basement, with drop ceilings and low duct work. Based on Peter’s suggestion, we cut a large window into the south facing wall. With a large terraced window well, this provides extensive natural light and makes the basement rec room feel more like a walkout. By expanding archways and hallways, a more open design makes it feel less enclosed than a traditional basement. The bathroom was reorganized to make a modern and functional space. Moreover, given the short timelines for our estimate, we did not know the basement was roughed in for a bar until possession. Peter worked hard to find cost effective but stylish solutions to allow us to add a bar with a live edge cedar bar top at a price we could afford. As with any renovation to existing homes, there were surprises along the way, and Peter and Ed (site supervisor) worked with us to quickly resolve any issues. Peter was also accommodating when we added additional requests (e.g. minor foundation repair, backwater valve, additional water and gas lines). Even after completion, Peter has been responsive to any concerns and has arranged for support from his trades even for issues not directly to the basement. We are very happy with our renovation and would highly recommend Four Elements. Peter and his staff are responsive, professional, and committed to quality work and client satisfaction.

We hired Four Elements to renovate our main floor with emphasis on the kitchen and master bedroom ensuite. I have been involved in commercial and domestic renovations and there are always issues. However, Peter was always available to correct them in a timely manner. The key to Peter's success is he contracts excellent trades which results in a great finished product.

We recently hired Four Elements to renovate our home. Most renovations run into some issues and ours had it's fair share. Peter was always quick to answer any questions and address any issues that arose. We are thrilled with the finished product and would highly recommend Peter and Four Elements Construction to anyone.

We recently contracted Peter of Four Elements Construction to assist in the design and finish of our undeveloped basement. Our wish list included a full bath with shower and in floor heating, an additional bedroom, a theatre area and wet bar. From the beginning, we were very impressed with the attention to detail and the level of communication Peter maintained with us leading up to the project commencement, and then daily during the construction. We have worked with many builders in the past and would rank the level of professionalism, commitment, and communication from Peter to be the best we have ever experienced. It was evident throughout the entire project that Peter’s main goal is to ensure his clients are fully satisfied with the end result. During the design process Peter made some recommendations. We thought his insights were exceptional and agreed with his suggestions, and are delighted we did! Peter has a very strong and dependable group of trade people whom he relies on to complete the work. They all showed up on their assigned day, and time, and that they left the work area tidy at the end of each day. While there is always some confusion and mess, this was minimal during the entire project. Overall, we cannot say enough great things about Peter and Four Elements Construction. The project was completed in a timely manner. His method of estimating and keeping his customers aware of all controllable costs was excellent. We finished on time, on budget, and extremely satisfied. No doubt in our mind that Peter’s main goal of ensuring client satisfaction is the critical measure of his success, and our satisfaction. We have no hesitation in recommending Peter and Four Elements Construction. John & Anita Matheson

We feel extremely fortunate to have had Four Elements Construction renovate our unsuite. Being the pro he is, Peter made suggestions that weren't costly but made a wonderful impact on the finished results. Peter and his crew did a fantastic job. Renovations were completed in a timely manner & on budget. It was nice dealing with a company that respected our time and privacy. We highly recommend Four Elements Construction.

We hired Four Elements on the recommendation of friends for a renovation project in our house. Peter and his crew were professional and organized. We made several changes and additions during the project and Peter managed to keep things on time and schedule while accommodating our requests. Given the scope of the project, the crew kept things clean and functional for us. We would happily recommend Peter.

We had our ensuite bathroom renovated by Peter and his team at Four Elements this year- it was an amazing experience! Peter was very knowledgeable (which was a requirement as I had no clue what I was doing!) He gave his opinions as to layout and materials, which was very helpful. The team that he assembled to do the job were friendly and professional- wonderful as I had 2 small children that were very curious about the renovation! Our end product is a thing of beauty- reflects our style perfectly and in a functional way. If I were to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing! As a side note, I was amazed at how clean the project was- Peter and his team were cognizant of the amount of dust and debris and kept things very clean throughout the renovation. They also had a cleaning crew deep clean not only the bathroom, but our bedroom and staircase as well.

Four Elements was recommended by my sister after her main floor, master bedroom and ensuite were completely remodeled. Peter and his crew were very professional, very clean and more than willing to accommodate any changes or touch-ups that we required. He was also able to finish the work in the time frame promised. The work provided was back splash tile installation, painting of extremely high vaulted walls, removal and reinstallation of hardwood floors and repair work to cracks in ceiling and walls caused by settling of a new home.

We hired Four Elements Construction to renovate our basement in our 1960s bungalow in Edmonton. The quality of the work is excellent. We have been enjoying the new space for a couple of months, and are extremely pleased. We've had a several visitors use the new guest room and bathroom, and all are wowed by how great they looks -- the contrast between the pre-existing 1960 tiki-bar basement and the new modern interior is night and day. We liked the work so much that we hired Peter to redo our upstairs bathroom and a few other small projects. Peter's work is guaranteed and he has been quick to address a few minor post- construction issues. He also has aligned himself with good and helpful suppliers and tradespeople, which made the process enjoyable. We would highly recommend Peter and the Four Elements team.

We loved working with Peter who worked very hard to keep the project on time and on budget. He also has a great style/creative eye. Our home is the Shulha residence.

I recently had the pleasure of completing a basement development with Four Elements Construction. Peter, our general contractor, was a delight to work with. He is extremely knowledgable in every area and his professionalism was second to none. He has a unique ability to consistently be five steps ahead and catch issues before the arise, making well thought out changes leading to a superior finished product . Being a stay at home mom, my kids and I were home while the work was being done. Peter always kept my in loop as to who was coming when and what was being done. He also was sure to stop by everyday to make sure things were completed correctly and answer any questions I had. Furthermore, the trades he hired to do the work were all a pleasure to have around. They were all very kind and respectful. I felt very comfortable with who was in my home while my kids and I were going about our day. Thank you Peter and Four Elements for a job well done!

Our experience with Four Elements was outstanding - Peter was great to deal with and very open to working within our timelines - he was efficient in getting us a quote and honest in his recommendations for the best approach to our project. His subcontractors did a good job and Peter was present on site almost daily or checking in by phone to make sure everything was going well, which provided us with peace of mind. We would absolutely hire Four Elements again for any future projects and would recommend this company to others, without hesitation.

Four Elements Construction's services exceeded our expectations! From design through construction, we are thrilled with their work and our amazing home! Four Elements Construction was knowledgeable, highly experienced, had a great attitude, and meet deadlines and budgets! Peter and all of his crews were friendly, tidy, respectful, professional, and meticulous! Peter is highly organized and knowledgeable. Our young family lived in-house through-out these major home renovations, and Four Elements took great consideration with scheduling, cleanliness, kindness, and professionalism. Four Elements worked very well with the interior designer we engaged, and a cabinetry company hired through our interior designer. Our Renovation Desires: Connection, Our Style, and Green Design. We wanted our small 1970s home to have more connection between the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, as well as connection to our back yard and basement. We wanted an update to match our style (modern rustic), better circulation for our growing family and for large gatherings, and to utilize products that are more sustainable and with less of a carbon-footprint. If there was one thing I would improve, it would have been achieving a more low-impact renovation. We deviated from this goal due to cost, timelines, as well as not clearly communicating this desire to the plumbing and lighting company, and the slate company. Ceiling & Walls: Non-load bearing walls were removed. The nail-in-place roof needed engineering. The ceiling was opened to replace a beam, hangers were added for joists, and joists were doubled-up to keep from bowing. Insulation replaced. Ceiling closed and entire ceiling was re-stippled. Windows & Exterior Doors: A large exterior window was added, roughly 4' by 5' in dimensions. The solid backdoor was replaced with a windowed door. Electrical: Extensive electrical work was completed: electrical outlet relocations, ceiling lighting relocations, additions, and retrofitting, feature lighting in new cabinetry and shower, as well as rewiring to code. Flooring: Carpet and linoleum were removed. Subfloor was levelled. Natural slate was put in front and back entries and in bathroom. Cork was put in everywhere else (kitchen, dining, family, hallways). Fireplace: Red Brick facade was covered with natural slate (random patterning). Mantel was replaced with live edge wood, hearth was updated with slate. Cabinetry was added under the hearth (sliding doors) and on either side of fireplace, including wood storage unit, slate counter, and entertainment storage and electrical. Custom fireplace doors were added. Bathroom: Gutted. New tub, natural slate surround including shampoo bottle niche, water-wise shower faucet system. New water-wise toilet. New bath vanity, including cabinetry, sink, counter-top, overheard cabinetry, bulkhead lighting, glass backsplash, new electrical outlet, shelving, and full mirror. Interior Doors: Replaced with solid wood doors and a set of bi-pass doors with mirrors at our front closet. Doors were stained to match cabinetry throughout home. Hardware matched all the hardware through the house. Kitchen Island: Updated with wine rack and glass hangers, toe-kick drawers, replaced stool niche with cabinetry, and replaced counter-top with granite. Paint: Walls went from a darker colour to warm white, save for the kitchen's sage green which was colour-matched for touch-ups. Railings: Gorgeous railings installed where walls were removed around back entry and stairs. Live edge wood for one railing top and a wood handle for at around the stairs.

Peter was a consummate professional throughout our master bath, master bedroom and main floor renovation project...from design to quote to demolition to completion and follow-up service work. As with any renovation there will be the odd hiccup. Peter was always a phone call or text away when we had a question or concern and he was immediate with his response and resolution. Peter puts the client first and ensures everything is looked after and done to our expectations. It's been over two months since the renovation has been completed and Peter is still a phone call away to deal with any little things that come up. That's the kind of dependability we look for in a general contractor. Peter will be our first call when we look to complete our future rents in our home.

Peter did a fantastic job on our basement development. He took a dark, ugly basement and turned it into a great entertainment and hang-out space. He was more than willing to explore any of the crazy ideas we had for items to include in the basement. The worksite was always cleaned up at the end of the day and all of the subcontractors Peter used were very respectful when working in our home. Peter was always prompt and respectful in all of our communications and was very open with everything that was going on during the project. Whenever there was a delay, we were informed right away so we were never left wondering what was going on with the renovation. When there was an issue with one of subcontractors, Peter had already dealt with it before I had a chance to raise the issue with him. We could not be happier with the finished product and how great Peter was to deal with. I would not hesitate to hire Peter and Four Elements again!

Four Elements did an incredible job on our renovation. Peter ensured that each trade's work was up to his high quality standards. We're extremely happy that we hired Four Elements and would gladly hire them again.

We first met with Peter Russell and Four Elements in the spring of 2013 for the finishing of our basement and upgrades to our ensuite bathroom. At the time we were having difficulties contacting our original interior designer; fortunately Peter and his team were patient and great at communicating with us to carry on where the designer left off. Our project finally started in the fall and Peter was easily accessible and attentive to our concerns and needs. There were a few delays along the way and the project did take longer than expected, but this is something that will happen with any renovation. Delays were usually caused by waiting for raw materials from distributors or availability of trades, but Peter was on top of issues as they arose and kept us informed. Our project was finished early 2014 and we were very happy with the work done by Four Elements. The craftsmanship was very good and Peter and his team were able to keep the costs within budget. It has been over a year and we are still enjoying our new finished basement and ensuite shower. Thanks Peter and Four Elements.

1. Bathtub and tile replacement (and plumbing) 2. Shower replacement/redesign and new plumbing All excellent quality and Four elements was committed to getting the job finished right to the final details. Had some minor revisions to project and there was no trouble getting it all taken care of. I would deal with them again.

Our experience with Peter was excellent, professional and very detailed and thorough. He provided us with ideas as we progressed and any of the additional changes we made along the way just flowed smoothly. We were extremely pleased with the final results that updated our house and would highly recommend Peter to anyone contemplating renovations. I miss our friendly morning visits, we always had friendly morning wake up visit. Merry Christmas Peter.

We have used Four Elements for 2 renovation projects now at 2 different homes and would certainly recommend the company for small to large projects. The first was a basement finishing project in 2014 - we started with an unfinished basement and roughed in plumbing in a 2003 home with Four Elements coordinating all trades to frame/drywall/paint/carpentry/electrical/plumbing/installation of carpet and tile. Our project was estimated to take 3 months and was completed within that time frame. We were minimally above budget (I believe it was a couple thousand on 30+) and was in part due to changes that we made as the project went along. The finishing quality was excellent and we were very happy with the completed space (family room, bathroom and small laundry room). Peter (owner) made several excellent recommendations along the way such as the type of lighting to use and was responsive to our comments/suggestions throughout the build. Our second project has just recently concluded and was significantly more complex as it was upgrades/renos throughout a 1960's home on all levels. We installed new exterior doors/window, moved a wall, created a pass thru, painted, installed new flooring, countertops, lighting in the basement, insulation, electrical, and furnace upgrades to name a few. Again, this project was completed on time and very close to our original budget (48+) and was completed within the 2 month time frame Peter estimated. We are very happy with the end results and did not consider using anyone other than Peter and Four Elements for this project based on how well our first experience went.
