The porch had been in a state of disrepair when we called Dan for an estimate, with a gap in its foundation and broken flagstones. We'd met with a few contractors - and encountered a range of prices - before we spoke with Dan. His former boss had spoken highly of his work and we quickly understood the reasons. Dan listened attentively to our goals and offered a vision to restore our home's curb appeal. He impressed our entire household with consummate professionalism, extensive knowledge, and a competitive quote.
Once Dan started the work, he communicated regularly to let us know when he'd arrive, how the weather might impact timelines, and what to expect as things progressed. He and Connor were diligent and attentive to detail, ensuring the concrete had time to settle before they moved on to the next step. Dan took into account the needs of an aging household, widening the path at the front of the house and reducing the height of each step. It was incredible to watch the porch transform over the course of weeks, creating a timeless, elegant look with stamped concrete in contrasting shades.
The porch is as gorgeous a year later as it was when Dan and Connor finished it. Their work inspired us to upgrade our railings, windows, and doors, matching the quality of Dan's renovation and giving our house a distinctive, modern look. We have received compliments from family, friends, and neighbours, with people approaching us off the street to ask for our contractor's details. We never hesitate to recommend Dancrete, Inc. and we contracted Dan and his (fabulous) crew to redo our backyard this year, but that's another glowing review-in-the-making.
Dan is an absolute joy to work with! We've had less-than-stellar experiences with contractors in the past, so we understand that a good one is worth their weight in gold and count ourselves lucky to have met Dan. He is a lovely person and a talented contractor. I highly recommend Dancrete, Inc.
