Noel Taylor

Noel and his team have done a fair amount of work around our house. He is always professional, practical and honest. His work is outstanding and he is totally trustworthy.

Most recently we had him paint the interior of our entire house. He was able to make it as unobtrusive as possible as he went from floor to floor and the holiday season was in the middle of it all.

We already have him lined up to start a new job in the spring...

We've just had Noel back to our place for the third time in as many years. To date Noel has installed lighting, identified and fixed plumbing issues, repaired drywall (beautifully) before painting walls and ceilings, made repairs to the front steps and our cedar deck...everything is done on time and within budget. Call Noel, he's great!

Noel has worked with us for many years now. He built a Television unit, painted our babies rooms, and trimmed down our kitchen table. His service has been excellent, very trustworthy, and honest about the job prior to commencing (on where or not it can be done or not).
We would recommend his services, highly! He is very talented!

I needed someone to paint some rooms and patch a few holes.I found Noel on Google, he quoted me for 3 days worth of labour, $640-960 before tax, $1262 after tax at most.

- Noel would take his sweet time doing the most menial tasks.

- He asked us for a list of things that needed to be done and then didnt look at the list once- thus he ended up missing a few things- walls, base boards.

- Everything he missed, he'd act as if it were an add on to the list of things to do- perhaps part of his ploy to take longer and charge more money.

- He patched a few holes on the walls without painting over them, thus leaving the work for me to do later.

- He attempted to refit our washer and dryer into the laundry room, and ended up breaking the sliding doors, totalling $500 to replace.

- It took him 5 days to do 3 days worth of work, and then tried to charge me $1700- over $400 more than we agreed, for unfinished work that I then had to go back and do myself.

Once I refused t o pay him the new amount, things went from bad to just plain creepy. He went into my house, took a picture with his phone of a family potrait of me, my wife and my son, and emailed the picture to me, telling me that I was setting a bad example, I was being shameful, etc. Who sneaks into peoples homes and takes pictures of them?

Noel Taylor is a very strange man with a horrible work ethic. If you like people ripping you off and taking pictures of you when you're not around, then Noel Taylor's the handyman for you.

If anyone would like a copy of the correspondence between him and my wife and I, feel free to shoot me an email at jeffscatliff@gmail.com

We have used Noel many times for small and large jobs. He redesigned and reconstructed our main staircase inside our home and, more recently, designed and built beautiful cedar porch railings. The new railings have garnered us many compliments and stand out as a stunning design feature of our renewed facade work. Noel has a keen eye for design and the quality of his work is always top notch. I have recommended his services to friends in the past and all have been complimentary of the quality of his work.

I needed a carpenter to repurpose knotty pine panelling into a headboard for my mom. He was friendly, prompt and great quality work. Noel will be my first call on my next project.

We are very grateful for the referral to Noel. He rebuilt and finished our front porch floor, stairs and front railing. He also trimmed the inside of our wooden front door. His wood working skills are excellent and he has a good eye for detail. He was punctual, trustworthy, pleasant to deal with, thoughtful and very reasonable. We feel very fortunate to have been able to work with him and would highly recommend him.

We feel so fortunate to have found a handyman who can do precise and detailed work. His wood working skills are excellent. In addition to building and replicating part of an old railing, he refinished an old oak door, added some crown moulding at the top of the library bookcases, did exterior concrete and caulking work, sealed off exterior gaps around the perimeter of the house, built a rad cover for the bathroom and some other items for us. His fees are reasonable. He is punctual, considerate, thoughtful and exceedingly helpful. It wasn't easy to do these task midst a house full of painters and plasters. We have recommended him to other family members. He is busy - so you need to plan ahead.

The quality of Noel's work is excellent. He is extremely reliable and obliging. I would strongly recommend him for any type of woodwork. We were extremely happy with all the aspects of work that he did for us.

Noel's work is efficient with excellent attention to detail. His advice is always helpful and prices are reasonable. He is reliable, punctual and respectful. H cleans up after his jobs.
