Concrete repair, stone facing, replace railings

I found this company to lack communication and not be proactive. The job progressed far too slowly and no one seemed to be managing it. Workers did not show up when they said they would and I heard nothing for weeks at a time. As a result I spent many days waiting at home for someone to show up but they didn't. The salesman told me it would be 2-4 weeks to complete the job but it took almost 5 months. It was a very stressful experience.

New Deck

Our existing deck was approaching 20 years of age and looked it! Permanent's crew stripped and rebuilt it- including new steps and railings and we've had nothing but compliments. Beautiful job , Well done!

roofing

We had an old shingle on our house and It had raised and looked bad in several spots. We contacted Permanent because of their reputation in the area as being high quality and good value. We spoke to the representative who recommended a better shingle than what we had previously and he told us we could have the wood that needed replaced included. We were skeptical that this could all be done for the price quoted, but when the job happened thats we we got. There was wood rotted that was replaced, the whole job was done and it still looks great three years later.

Highly recommended!

I would highly recommend using Permanent Building for residential renovations. Hiring a contractor is always a nerve-racking experience and working with Permanent was very easy. They came in on-time and on-quote and I'm very happy with the hardwood floor installation and renovated bathroom that they completed. Will definitely be calling them for more renovations in the future.

Kitchen tiling, painting, renovations

Permanent Building was fantastic! Adam spent about 2 weeks at my house, showing up promptly and was easy to communicate throughout. He did a fantastic job painting, removing some built in closets, and redoing the backsplash in my kitchen. Couldn't ask for a better experience and hoping to use Permanent Building again in the future!

Handicap ramp and front deck

Work completed and very sturdy. Compliments from several neighbours.

Once post tops and staining with slip guard sand is completed, it will be perfect. Just waiting for better weather to complete.

Roof and windows

I contacted Permanent building as they were recommended by my friends who were very satisfied. I asked them about replacing my 20 year old roof and replacing some windows
Their price was very competitive and their workmanship and service were excellent. Highly recommended

retaining walls

When our retaining walls and steps were built the people that were working getting on it were totally unprofessional. They obviously did know what they were doing. They were completely unreliable and hated doing the work they were doing, so the project was horrible, The quality of work was terrible, and they didn't care. After 9 years the walls started to collapse. Now we have to hire a new contractor to redo everything. If this contractor offers this service they should make sure that they have the qualifications to do so. Don't hire this company. You will be very disappointed, long term.

Exterior Stonework

They did eventually complete the work that they had agreed too. During the process I was asked to stop sending emails but the work got finished despite my efforts to get the work finished earlier.

Walter was too aggressive and it was not an enjoyable experience.

Renovation

I would highly recommend Permanent Building Products. The salesperson was very friendly and didn't push me to spend more than I had. The workmanship inside (wood flooring, new wall, bathroom renovation) and outside (flagstone) my house look great and were done on time and on budget. Thanks so much!!
