I worked with Lawson Development on a basement home improvement project. They worked me with on ideas to get the project within my budget and started the project within a few days of coming to an agreement. Not only did they do the work to quality, they completed it in record time including a few additional changes I requested.

William and his crew are top notch! The work they did (screening in our porch) turned out amazing. William communicated clearly with us throughout the project and ensured we were happy with the finished project. I'm already planning to hire them for another project I have in mind. I highly recommend them!

We started our basement and house remodelling journey with Lawson Development 3 months ago and it has been nothing less but a delight. William is extremely professional and guided us very well through the process, he obtained all permits and paper works. He managed everything so well and the whole process was seemless. He and his team are very punctual and deliver results as promised. I am very happy that we chose William and his team for our dream project and they delivered such beautiful and quality work. A BIG THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you so much Kriti. You, Sunny and your family have been so hospitable and easy to work with since day 1. We really appreciate you choosing our team for your project. We don’t have many customers who fix us lunch and over coffee/tea to us while working. Thank you all so much. I’m glad you all enjoy your basement and bathrooms. You all had a great vision. I’m glad we could bring it to fruition. Thank you!

William and his group were professional, thorough, hands on, and very responsive. There were a couple of items that needed to be touched up/redone, which can happen with a bigger job like mine. William and his team had these items taken care over within 72 hours without issue. As for the other 99% of their work, they did a fantastic job building out my basement and bathroom! I recommended William to neighbors and friends and will hire him in the future for other projects.
