Quick basement finishing with spa bathroom
When my spouse and I moved into a new construction home, we knew the basement would eventually be finished. When we found out we were expecting our first child, the need for the extra finished space was expedited. When we first moved in, we hired a designer (not AGM) and that experience was miserable, over budget but 300%, and the work done needed so much fixing afterwards.
So, having dealt with contractors who never showed up, did shoddy work when they did, added on massive hidden fees, and leave items unfinished, finding a reputable company was a must for us.
AGM fit that bill: it is large enough, fully insured, and we were given a no-obligation meeting with Lyndsie to go over what to expect. AGM also assigned a project manager to us, Karim, who was just such a joy to deal with. We got a call promptly from Alexey regarding scheduling, and Karim showed up on site to go over the plan.
Incredibly, the work started on the day promised, upgrades chosen were incredibly reasonable and available, and the project was finished by the promised date. We couldn't believe that the framers managed to do everything in one day, the electrical and plumbing were done the next day, and drywall started the day after. There were almost no days when no workers arrived, and they were incredibly courteous when present (none smoked on our property, they were quiet, and did not leave any messes indoors or outdoors).
We needed a gym area, general walls/floors, and a bathroom, so we wanted the areas to be special. We now have a relatively large home spa of a bathroom with a 40 sq ft steam shower, the gym area fits our needs perfectly including installation of outlets for mounted TVs and Wall mirrors, and a yoga nook with colour-changing mood lighting. As a bonus, Karim helped us plan out an area for our little one with safety in mind and decorative wainscoting to make the area more grand!
I cannot recommend AGM enough: the communication alone is reason to give them a call.
