bathroom reno, minor drywall repairs, install a laundry closet

I would not recommend Delco or use them ever again. It took them over 7 weeks(which is completely ridiculous) to complete a bathroom reno that was already gutted (other than the vanity and a bulk head) before they started. The new tub was already installed and the plumbing was already complete. They missed deadlines time and time again. They never communicated changes to the schedule. People would just either show up to work or not show up for work on what ever days they liked.
If you are going to use them, be extremely specific as to what will be covered by your quote. One of the things they were to do was supply and install a closet door for our washer and dryer closet. When it came time to do that we were then told that it didn’t include painting the closet door so that was a project we were going to have to take on ourselves. The quote noted which areas were not to be painted by Delco but the closet door was not listed. We also contracted them to tile the tub surround and floor. They informed us after work commenced that this did not include sealing or caulking.
The final product was definitely below standard. The drywall job they did was horrible. They did try to fix it and repaint but it didn’t work. The paint job they did was also not very good. There were paint brush hairs all over the walls and the paint seems to mark up as soon as it is touched. One of the workers took out a chunk of porcelain from the base of our toilet. Some of the workers didn’t clean up after themselves so I was having to do the clean up after them every night. Minor details like a cover for our light switch in our hallway were not replaced, yet they removed it when work commenced.

By week 9, we ended up telling Delco we were going to get professionals to complete deficiencies as we were not confident anymore they would be done properly or in a timely manner by Delco.

Another thing to note is that when we complained about these deficiencies to Debbie she couldn’t even be bothered to come and take a look at the finished product and see the problems we were talking about for herself. In fact when she picked up her final payment she asked us to leave it under the mat.

Approximate cost of services:
$11,000.00
