I had a major issue at the cottage which needed to be fixed as soon as possible. I contacted Kawartha Lakes Construction and they responded quickly and an appointment was arranged. Geoff was extremely knowledgeable and professional at our first meeting. He explained how the process would work in detail and ensured that he would send a daily update with photos when the work began. Upon completion of the work, there was a hiccup that arose. I contacted Geoff and the problem was addressed immediately. He couldn't have been more professional. I would highly recommend Kawartha Lakes Construction.

This has been a challenging year for the trades so we weren't surprised that there were a few glitches in our project. Nonetheless, the team came through for us and we are pleased with the stability of our "perched on a steep hill" cottage addition.

The employees at KLC have been professional and accommodating. They gave what we asked for.

We were very happy with KLC and would recommend to a friend

I paid for premium service, but I didn't feel like I got premium service.

Dealing with these people is a pleasure from start to finish.

The folks at KLC are excellent to work with. Problems always arise in renovation projects--that's just the nature of the game, but they took responsibility for them and fixed them all in a timely manner and I have been left with a beautifully renovated 2nd floor. Thank you to the whole team

Kawartha Lakes went beyond our expectations in quality and craftsmanship. The team was responsive to all questions and concerns.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Areas Of Satisfaction - fantastic communication and quality work

They were thoroughly professional and willing to work within my design parameters. They did not recommend unnecessary work. One year later, I can say that I am still extremely satisfied with our new kitchen. A minor fix was attended to promptly at no charge.

Over the past few years Kawartha Lakes Construction has done a number of smaller jobs for us. Each time we are impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail. We shall be using them again.

honest and professional and no-nonsense and thorough impressed with results

This project went better than we could have ever imagined and it was finished by the day they predicted it would be! We are 100 percent thrilled with everyone we worked with!

We are very pleased with our experience with Kawartha Lakes Construction. The staff was friendly, helpful and professional, and the price was fair compared to other quotes. We wouldn't hesitate to hire them again or to recommend them to a neighbour or friend.

I would definitely recommend because of the workmanship and finished product. But I would warn that the project will probably not be completed on time or on budget.

Additional Comments

Additional Comments - Building our cottage was a dream we had for many years before sitting down with KLC to begin the process. Over the two years spent designing and building the cottage KLC worked very hard to educate us and to ensure that all of the details came together in a final product that will be a part of our family for many years to come. We appreciated that they understood how important the project was to us.Working with a builder that could develop the design and budget and be responsible for the full construction was exactly what we wanted and we think the design build capability was part of what made for a final product that we are very happy with.Thank you to Garry, John and the entire team at KLC for making our cottage dream a reality.
