DO NOT use this company! They damaged our home and did not repair their damages and conned us out of our money.
The co-owner and project manager is Lucas L. We found him on Kijiji which was a mistake to begin with! He was really charming in the beginning, but when problems started to arise, he made himself scarce. His and his workers work ethics leave much to be desired. They would take 4hour lunch breaks or only work for 2-4 hours a day. He would tell me he would be there on this and that day, and not turn up. He was supposed to paint all my walls, put hardwood on my floors and to stain them. His paint job showed framing everywhere, and he didn't paint behind my stove or fridge! He laid down the hardwood and didn't do a proper finishing job around the fireplace. And he didn't stain under the stove or fridge either! And he left footprints, dirt and hair stuck in the varnish of the floor. It was horrible. I had to spend another $14,000 to repair what he had done and didn't do! My bathrooms and toilets were also left in a disgrace with poop down the sides of the toilet bowl. Both in and outside! It was disgusting!! He and/or his workers also left cigarette butts, beer cans, beer caps littered in and around our house and yard.
A 3 week project turned into 6 weeks and he wasn't even done! After we did the walk through and there was things that needed to be repaired, he said to pay him first and he'll come back next week to finish up as he needs to pay his men. So we did, and he never turned up. It was horrible, horrible horrible.
We brought him to small claims court and won, hands down with all the evidence presented. He didn't even turn up for the hearing or for the request for moderation before the hearing. He just disappeared and ignored our requests for communication. NEVER go with this company! His contact information is as follows:
Urban Property Group or a variation of it just so he can get business.
