Rebuild The Planet

Rebuild The Planet was contacted for help to remove the load bearing wall between my kitchen and family room on main floor and to remove load bearing wall directly below on basement level. Leuri had a structural engineer he worked with and his engineer assisted in putting design requirements together for the project. I submitted the permit application to the city. Leuri was great to work with, reasonably priced, and very accommodating. Leuri showed up as discussed and completed project quickly. No issues and I would gladly use Rebuild The Planet for future renos.

Leuri was amazing to work with. He had great ideas about framing my basement, and helped me with a structural issue with the basemnt steel beam. Leuri and Jared were on time every day, and did a fantastic job cleaning up the site. I would have no hestiations in recommending Rebuild the Planet to any of my family or friends.

Thanks to Leuri and the team for the job well done on time, especially the beautiful curve opening. We are truly satisfied with their professional knowledge, customer oriented attitude and the clean job site. They are artists as well as experienced framers. We will definitely recommend them to all of our friends and families.

My apologies to Leuri ( Larry ) at Rebuild The Planet for this tardy review.

Leuri really deserves a rating of 11 stars out of 10.

He went above and beyond to complete intricate framing works in my basement - I am very particular about workmanship, as Leuri can attest to.

If I could only use 3 words word to describe Leuri they would be:

"Master Framing Carpenter"

In my 35 plus years experience in the construction and engineering industry I have never met a better group of individuals led by Leuri, that in my humble opinion, are one of the best companies in the construction framing business.

I was immediately impressed by Leuri upon our initial meeting.

First and foremost, Leuri is a very humble and respectful human being - seldom do you find these qualities - especially amongst contractors.

His expertise in construction framing is quite evident when you speak to him, he is very knowledgeable and up to date with current Building Code requirements and is able to "think outside of the box".

The best way to describe my dealings with Leuri and his great crew at Rebuild The Planet is as follows:

Professional, respectful, knowledgeable, excellent workmanship, extraordinary people skills, punctual, expeditious, down to earth, no pressure sales tactics, excellent communication skills, immaculate job cleanup, excellent workmanship guarantee.

The basement layout plan I created was, to say the least, a very detailed geometric design requiring precision layout and execution.

Leuri's confidence and expertise rubs off on his crew and they performed the framing layout with no problem - especially when working with existing exterior walls that are not "square" and when the existing concrete slab is not true to be level - this is the true mark of a " Master Framing Carpenter ".

Leuir provided excellent feed back and resolution to particular problem areas regarding limiting headroom caused by heating supply ducts - once again he demonstrated the ability to "think outside of the box" to help resolve issues not only during construction but also prior to construction during our initial visit.

Leuri is very skilled, he actually assisted me on the spur of the moment to help level the existing concrete floor when my original contractor, who was scheduled to do this work, cancelled out on me at the last minute - Leuri helped out on a Sunday in order to keep the job on schedule - thanks again Leuri, that was very kind of you and very professional.

Leuri has a very good structural insight as well, we exposed an existing concrete block support column which I thought may have been compromised from previous demolition work - however, upon closer inspection, Leuri re-assured me there were no issues - I concurred given my structural background.

In my humble opinion:

If you are looking for any type of construction framing - no matter how complicated, whether structural elements are involved or not, please do not hesitate to call Leuri - you will not be disappointed - he is passionate about providing excellent work - you will be in good hands.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for a reference, you may reach me via text at 705-828-9425

My experience with Leuri was positive from the first time we spoke right through to the finish. Very professional, excellent quality work and a pleasure all around the deal with. I would recommend Rebuild the Planet to friends and family.

Leuri and his team were very easy to deal with and quick with communication. He framed our basement and gave us some great advice on the setup of our rooms. Leuri even followed up after the fact to give us some more advice on mechanical issues. Highly recommended.

I was in the market for a reliable framing contractor and came across Rebuild The Planet on HomeStars and immediately noticed their high volume of favorable reviews. I called Leuri and was provided impeccable service from the very beginning. After receiving his proposal, I decided to hire him, and I do not regret it. Him and his crew are very skilled and knowledgeable, and he is very friendly, personable and completely trustworthy. I look forward to hiring him again for out next project.

Knowledgeable , professional, and skillful.
I recommend Leuri and his crew for all framing work , if you want the job done on time and on budget.

I personally learned alot from him and I'm a structural engineer by trade.

After some debate of whether or not I would tackle the project myself, we decided to hire someone to frame our basement for us, and thankfully we found "Rebuild the Planet" to do all the framing work in our basement.

From beginning to end, Leuri was fantastic. After receiving a few quotes, we decided to stick with Leuri for a few reasons.

1. Response time: was amazing - we had received the first response within a day, and responses to any questions via e-mail usually the same day.

Other companies would not respond for up to a week or longer - so in my mind, if it takes a week to respond for a job opportunity, how long will it take to respond if a problem arises? Leuri was GREAT at responding to any questions or concerns we had from day 1 to completion.

2. Knowledgeable and helpful: We had provided a floor plan of what we had in mind, and we walked through it together. Throughout the walk around, Leuri provided some advice as to how to improve the design and layout, and pointed out a few details that other trades didn't consider (for example, ways re-route duct work and central vac lines to minimize bulkheads, concerns of a water line that might leak in the future, etc).

3. Flexible and Punctual: Leuri was on time, to the minute, that he said he would be there, and was very flexible with my schedule - even coming to do the layout on a Sunday afternoon! Not only that, but it is obvious that they pay attention to schedule and make it as efficient as possible - Leuri had suggested the work could be done a week ahead of schedule - when was the last time you had someone perform work done EARLIER than originally planned?

Post-Work: Over-all very happy with the results - one minor correction was needed, and Leuri came back the next day to solve it. Dimensions are exactly as we had requested, and after a few measurements I took, all the walls appear square, straight, and ready for drywall!

The only thing I can say is thank you for the hard work, and prompt service!

If you are trying to decide on a framer for your job, look no further. Use Leuri!!! I never met or knew of him until my project. He is very professional and knowledgeable. My addition was as complicated as it gets and Leuri pulled it off without a hitch. He really knows his stuff and actually cares about the quality of workmanship. I highly recommend his crew. Jon
