Octopus Home Solutions really good job of replacing our wooden deck with composite. OHS was one of the few contractors who gave a really precise quote with detailed descriptions of what the job entails. Andre and the guys took really good job of letting us know what job was left and any surprises that were there. They were punctual and cleaned out the yard everyday after work and made it useful for us at the end of the day. We are really happy we redid the deck and we are happy that we chose Octopus Home Solutions. We highly recommend them for any house projects be it small or big. We would definitely consider them for our future house projects.

Details: Application of finishes (sanding, staining, painting) • Repair one or few decking boards • Wood • Residential

Over all we had a great experience with Octopus House Solutions and are very happy with the outcome of the second phase of our attic renovation. We hired Octopus to install a dormered bathroom in our attic with a stand up shower. Although the project took a little longer than we initially expected and there were some things that needed to be redone, we kind of expected to hit some road blocks since this wasn’t our first renovation. Having worked with other companies in the past I will say that Andre is a top notch GC. He has a high standard and would come to check in on the work and progress often. You could tell that he genuinely cares about his clients being happy with the end result which is a trait we very much appreciated. The team was also flexible with timing since we have a toddler we asked that the work not start for the day until he was off to daycare. Andre and his team fully executed our vision, his rate was fair and there were no surprise costs upon completion. We would recommend hiring this team and we we’ll definitely be reaching out to Andre for future updates to our home!

Details: Change the form or function of a portion of a room or structure • Attic • Already have plans - just need installation • No, the project is not covered by an insurance claim • As soon as possible

Andre & his team have been a joy to work with. Extremely professional, reasonable and competent. I’ve worked with a lot of trades and contractors and they stood out particularly when it comes to professionalism. I look forward to working with them long term on many home improvement projects including a major restoration we have lined up.

Andre and Denilson did a great job with multiple interior projects at our new house. First they replaced all baseboards in our house -- it was such a good value and really made all the difference after we re-stained our floors to have fresh, thick baseboards. Next they did a board and batten accent wall in our dining room which came out amazing. Additionally they completely re designed our staircase to be modernized and we love it! They also built custom matching baby gates to keep our 1 year old baby safe from the stairs. Highly recommend these guys - really talented and can make “Pinterest” ideas a reality!

Details: Baseboards • Drywall • No, I will need the carpenter to provide the molding or trim • This is just an installation job - no design needed • As recommended by carpenter • I do not need it painted or stained
