Horrible experience, needed kitchen floor leveled and tiled so tile floor would be 17 mm higher than existing floors in adjacent rooms(for hardwood installation later) , bought all tiles myself, hired Chris to install. Mistake was not to put on paper the agreement. Chris started tiling. but in the washroom, not kitchen, and of course ran out of tiles, demanding more money to finish the job. And argued that we agreed on kitchen and washroom tiling. 75 % of the time Chris was not there to do the job, he had an apprentice doing it. In the course of 4 days, he demanded money installments 3 times, and naively, I gave it to him. End result,- kitchen floor was not leveled before underlayment, which resulted in tiles having hump in the middle of the room, finished tiles laid level with existing floors in living room and bedroom, so new hardwood would have to have unnecessary step into kitchen, floor in the washroom ( the one Chris forced on me) was tiled over heat register and partially over toilet receptacle ,window opening corners were done not plumb, tub in washroom never cleaned from mortar that dried hard to clean, dirty used pales and pile of cigarette butts left in my driveway, key to the apartment never returned, I had to change the locks. Receipt issued was only signed, without company name or address, so I can not use the receipt for Revenue Canada tax report. I would not be surprised if guy never claims these jobs as income, so sneaky he is .He introduced himself as Fernando , middle name Ceasar, but signed receipt as Chris. Advertised on KIJIJI a lot. Do NOT hire him. It is worth to pay few dollars extra but to reputable company . This guy gives all trades people bad name.
