Mainland Ventures

We have used Paul’s company, Mainland Ventures, and his crew for a number of projects at our Vancouver home including a basement renovation, exterior painting, exterior door installation and repairs, and the recent rebuild of our front stairs and porch. I would like to highlight the
professionalism of their crews, how they were a delight to have around and that the work and follow up is excellent. The stairs and porch, which their master carpenter Conor built was creative and a work of art! As a result, our immediate neighbour has requested your contact info so that he can have Conor and your crew revitalize his stairs and porch as well. We especially like that they have ways to implement our ideas--the consultation process is effective and comfortable. The fact that Amos was able to find and remedy the source of our water leak went above and beyond and was oh so appreciated.

We would have Mainland Ventures do any future work we have, without hesitation. We no longer get quotes from other companies, we just phone Paul!

We were pleased with Paul and his crew's quality work on our ensuite renovation. Whenever we had a question, Paul would always answer in a timely manner. He takes a consultative approach with his clients, and does not hesitate to ask if he has any questions. His crew was friendly, professional, and polite. They also did a great job of keeping the rest of our home in pristine condition while they worked on our reno. There were no surprises as to when the project would finish because we received frequent updates if there were changes. I would recommend Paul to anyone else looking to do a renovation project.

I recommend this company without reservation. They are efficient, honest, and a pleasure to deal with. Paul makes himself available at all stages of the work to answer questions and explain the process. Estimates are fair and accurate. I hope they continue to be available to repair this old house when needed.

On time, on budget, top quality work, clean, and returns phone calls promptly. What else can you ask for? Oh wait, they're eco-friendly too!

This is our 3rd reno project we've worked with Paul and Mainland Ventures on in the past 3 years (2 commercial/retail and 1 residential), and he's always a pleasure to work with. His employees and subcontractors are all professional and friendly, punctual, and reliable. Whether we are scoping out a project or trying to deal with one of those inevitable surprises or changes that come up, Paul is always willing to work with us and is always takes the time to give his best advice in regards to the matter at hand, taking into account both price and quality.

The scope of our project(s) with Paul have pretty much taken on the whole spectrum of work: build walls, soundproof rooms, install glass, install flooring, bathtubs, hot water tanks, toilets, electrical, finishing, etc. everything is always top notch.

We want to thank Paul (again) for another super smooth project with exceptional work. We also just want to comment on how much we like working with his crew. Amos and Marko were both really great and easy to get along with. We really like Amos’ attention to detail and quality of work. Please thank him for us, and we look forward to working with all of you on future projects!

Paul and his team recently installed new flooring and painted my condo. I was very pleased with the entire process - the results are great and everything went as smoothly as it possibly could have. Paul was early for every appointment we had and was easy to reach and quick to answer questions throughout the project. The team uncomplainingly adhered to all the strata's rules - I was so pleased and relieved that there were no strata-related complaints/issues. The team is very experienced in working in condos and close quarters - they have a custom cart for moving materials around, and were very neat and tidy. There were a couple snags (a light fixture that had been installed in such a way as to prevent removal of the cover; laminate that turned out to have been glued down), but the team took these issues in stride. The work was completed slightly earlier than originally estimated, and was within budget. I wouldn't hesitate to use Mainland Ventures for another project, and have already recommended them to a couple friends. Overall, a great experience.

I live in a house that is 100 years old. The oak floors over the years have suffered a bit but they are intrinsically beautiful. We had had the floors refinished about 20 years ago by a local company but the results were not good. This company spent only one day doing the job and the results showed that great care was not taken. I contacted Mainland Ventures to see about getting my floors while I was away.

The job was well done. There was not a flaw to be seen. It really pays to have good quality work done. I would highly recommend Mainland Ventures for their efficiency and high quality of workmanship.

Mainland Ventures did an excellent job in renovating our bathroom.
The workmanship was of the highest quality and was performed in a timely fashion. The company owner was always extremely helpful and responded promptly to any questions we had, being particularly helpful in selecting the various fixtures. This is the second bathroom we have had renovated by Mainland and we have no hesitation in giving Mainland the highest recommendation.

I called Mainland originally because of all the great reviews on Homestars. I was concerned that my job was too small but Paul was happy to accommodate me. Dan did a wonderful job, was in and out in 2 days, showed up on time, left everything spotless at the end of the day, and my kitchen looks beautiful. It was a pleasure dealing with Paul, Dan and Darcy and i would highly recommend them to anyone considering a job big or small. If I have any projects that need doing in the future Paul and his company are the ones that get my business.

This is our first reno experience and Paul and his team made the experience as painless as possible. I like that they were always punctual and very professional with regular communications, project planning and when dealing with setbacks. They always made sure they leave the job site orderly and liveable for us until they return again. I highly recommend Paul and his team to anyone considering any home renovations.

Paul and his team were professional and always punctual, and dealt with any and all issues in a timely way ensuring we were happy with the finished product. Our job was completed on budget and ahead of time, allowing us to get back to normal as quickly as possible! We would recommend them to others.
