Trentco Construction

We found Trent on homestars. We had been disappointed with the way the contractors that our friends and neighbours recommended handled the quoting process. We were looking for someone we could trust; someone we could work with; someone who would be responsive to our needs, flexible, reasonable and with a strong customer-service orientation. We are very happy we decided to go with Trent.

Trent is always joyful and upbeat. As I work mainly from my home office, this turned out to be an important characteristic. Indeed, I was looking forward each day to have Trent come over.

Our home being a heritage house, Trent and his crew had to deal with plenty of challenges – nothing was square, every part of the project brought a fair amount of surprises. The basement in particular was tricky. Trent found a way to deal with each of the numerous “curve balls” that our house sent at him, keeping us very well informed and involved throughout the process.

Trent is a man of his words. He often says that what matters most to him is to ensure his clients are happy. Most definitely, he backs-up his statement with his deeds.

Also, Trent was very good at keeping the additional work (i.e. the “extras”) within our budget, always proposing ways to minimize the cost.

We are looking forward to our next renovation project with Trent, and we would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, client-focused contractor in Toronto!

Trent came highly recommended through a network of friends. We had a small job that we needed done in a timely manner - building an access hatch into our attic space. The hatch was built in our infant son's closet, so dust and mess containment were extremely important to us.

Even though this was a small job, Trent treated the job and us with respect and phenomenal attention to detail. He is the tidiest contractor we have ever hired. His prices were very fair, he always called to let us know his daily arrival time, finished all the work on time, and was a great, friendly, and very respectfully person.

It's such a relief to have finally found a contractor in Toronto who we feel we can trust to provide fair quotes, excellent work, and a friendly persona to boot!

Our home renovation was huge and at times overwhelming. Three floors were demolished, completely renovated. Walls and heat vents moved, a bathroom expanded and re-built, new plumbing,insulation, wiring, closets. New at this, we were nervous with our lack of renovating knowledge and being on a tight budget. From the beginning, Trent was patient, going through this process step by step with us both each day. We very quickly grew to trust Trent's work and recomendations. For over a month, he was always on time,friendly and maticulous of his work and others. Trent completed our renovation on schedule even with us adding on extra work. Our house looks amazing, we are so pleased and have recommended Trent to our friends. We will happily call Trent again in the future. Thank you Trent!

Two years ago Trent built us a backyard deck and we were so pleased that we called him back to build a new bathroom in our basement. It turned out beautifully and we are thrilled! It was a big job as there was no existing plumbing and due to it being an older home, there were some unforseen obstacles that Trent handled remarkabley well. He was very understanding when we asked him to change a few things or even when we added extra work that put him behind schedule! Because we felt confident in his abilities, we asked him to install a hot water radiant heated floor which is fantastic! What impressed me most about Trent is his consideration for you as the homeowner. He always arrived at the scheduled time and if he was running late, he would call to let you know. He is very meticulous and pays attention to detail. His aim is to make sure you are pleased with the way things are going. I would highly recommend Trent and I have already asked him to come back to do some more work on our house!

Trent is an excellent contractor. He came to our house in 2006 to update and spruce up our small ensuite bathroom. This involved removing old flooring, removing an old bathtub, installing a new whirlpool bathtub, removing and reinstalling wall tiles, installing a new ceiling fan where none had existed, removing an old medicine cabinet and re-installing a new one on a different wall as well as all the requisite plumbing and electrical work that goes along with the job. He is a very conscientious worker who always comes to work with a smile, outlines the goals he has for the day and then cleans up before he leaves at night. Trent was always careful about cleanliness and the first thing he did was put up plastic wrapping to contain the mess and dust to the bathroom and away from the bedroom. Trent is not one who thinks he can tackle any job by himself and brought in a licensced electrician to complete and oversee all electrical wiring jobs that were required. At the end of the job, we had a beautiful new bathroom and a pleasant experience working with Trent.

I had a unfinished basement when I got the house. There were wires hanging down and no insulation. Trent came in from another reccomendation and he was awesome. What mattered to me as the first time home buyer was cost and punctuality. He finished the whole basement - made a living unit by changing the electrical panel, putting insulation, putting in a new kitchen, bulk heading the ducts -and when it was finished, it was a very nice - my idea was to rent the place and within the week he finished I had a tenant. This guy is very hardworking, (he worked until 2am in the morning to finish the job), very professional, very punctual and very clean.

I would recommend to anyone in a heart beat and I would be very happy to provide any kind of reference about him.

Trent is an amazing contractor. Not only does he do the job he promises to do but he went above and beyond helping us sellect and pick up supplies at a discounted price. I have recommended Trentco Construction to all of my friends and family. Wouldn't go with anyone else!

By moving the tub wall 18" into the adjoining bedroom, and by also moving the doorway over 18", a full size vanity could be installed replacing the inefficient pedestal sink. The small, hallway linen closet was incorporated to give lots of extra storage. Trent did an awesome job translating my wishes and ideas into this room and aside from a couple decorative touches I need to do, the room is done. Trent has a great eye for detail and is meticulous in his work. I will definatley call him when it's time to do the kitchen!

Trentco is always a great resource for whatever you need done - tiles, drywall, anything really. Trent is honest and cares about doing the job right - a nice change from some nightmares of the past. His crew does quality work, are very clean and when they say they'll be there - they are. I'd recommend them to anyone!

We had Trent in initially to do drywalling after we bought a home on the Danforth. The house was built in the 1930's and had to be completely rewired. Trent came in to do drywall patching on the ground and second foors and new drywall in the basement. The quality of his work was exceptional -- even the drywall patching within plaster walls was done beautifully. After that, we brought in Trent to do bathroom tiling and tub installation, hardwood floor refinishing, levelling of kitchen floors and plumbing in the kitchen. In all cases, we were happy with the quality of the work and we enjoyed working with Trent. He's a great communicator and a nice guy. We recommend him highly.
