Ian did an excellent work fixing/replacing my pool fence. It looks amazing. I also hired him for a second job to get mirror moldings done. That was also superb. 5 stars to him and i will hire him for all future work.

I recently hired Ian for some home repairs and couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and detail-oriented.

Dealing with Ian was good in all aspects. He repaired and repositioned our fence. He did a great job, especially considering that he was working with an older wooden fence that had been blown down during a recent mini hurricane!
