Deck repair

Alan was recommended to me by a friend after I had mentioned my deck wobbled every time my dogs ran across it. I called Alan, and he came promptly to assess the deck. He recommended a repair rather than a full replacement (which was a relief to me). He was very efficient with the repair and the project was completed within the time-frame he had proposed. He also left my deck area cleaner than it was to start! With so many unreliable contractors out there, I was impressed with Alan’s professionalism and honesty and will definitely be calling Nepean General Contractors again.

Interlock

I was very thrilled with the work organized by Nepean general contractors. Alan was able to organize upgrading my front steps and I was very happy with the results. I finally had my interlocking front steps and walkway.

Deck Replacement

Alan and his team replaced my existing deck. From the first time I contacted him about getting an estimate, through to the completion of the project I was impressed with Alan’s professionalism and attention to detail. Alan had suggestions to the project that enhanced the appearance and strength of the deck. He went above and beyond what I had expected including changes made during the project. He answered my questions clearly and promptly. All work was completed on time and on budget .They cleaned up thoroughly after the project was completed. I would recommend Nepean General Contractors.

Reinforcement of floors under front and rear entrance

My coworker recommended Alan Shade to us and we are very satisfied with the work that he did for us about 4 months ago. The hall floors at the front and back entrances to our house needed reinforcement (one was a dropped floor that was not well-supported and the other floor was sloped). We got several different quotes for this job but Alan presented an effective solution for a reasonable price. He is knowledgeable, professional and stayed true to his estimate in terms of both time and cost. He was responsive to all of our questions both before and after the job - when we discovered that something hadn't set properly we notified him and he came back the next day and fixed it at no additional cost. I'm sure we will use his services again the future.

Replacement deck

Alan and his team replaced my existing deck, which was in pretty bad shape. From the first time I contacted him about getting an estimate, through to the completion of the project I was impressed with Alan’s professionalism and attention to detail. He went above and beyond, regrading the area around the deck at his own initiative and at no additional charge. He answered my (frequent) questions clearly and promptly. When the job was finished - on time - they cleaned up thoroughly, leaving everything looking better than when they got there. I now have a solid, sturdy and attractive deck! I’ve already been talking with Alan about my next project – a new custom shed. I would definitely recommend Nepean General Contractors.

Soil grading around home foundation

The soil around the foundation has degraded overtime resulting in big puddles of water, several inches deep in some areas, every time it rains. Called Nepean General Contractors to look at the problem and provide a cost effective solution. Alan Shade dropped by, assessed the situation, gave clear options and provided pricing in a matter of 48 hours. Alan's suggested to slope the ground gently away from the foundation, using top soil and riverwash stone, effectively creating a swale. The swale allows water to be channeled away from the house. Allan and his crew were very professional. One full day of hard work starting at 8 AM sharp and everything was completed. The crew even moved an existing garden shed and put it back in place after the work was done. Alan inspected the work at the end of the day and decided to bring his crew again the following day for few hours to further increase the grading in few areas with top soil. I was fully satisfied with work done and will certainly call on Alan and his crew in the future.

Deck Replacement

I hired Nepean General Contractors to replace my deck and add support for the back porch.
From the beginning Alan was professional,competent,thorough and polite. He made suggestions and gave me choices for materials and design.
The proposal included a description of all the work necessary and was priced accordingly. There were no surprises.
The other trades brought in by Alan (electrical,helical piles for underpinning) were the same, on time and professional.
Both Alan and Paul were honest,reliable & hard working.
The job was completed on time and definitely to my satisfaction.

Bathroom Renovation

I have recommended Alan (owner of company) to many friends, who have all been as impressed as I am with his knowledge, workmanship, care for detail and above all honesty. His initial estimate for the job was very accurate.
He works long hours to get the job done and was polite and respectful at all times. Would call no-one else for future renovations.

Fascia repairs

We contacted Nepean General Contractors to repair a section of aluminum fascia that had come loose. Alan did a great job and proved to be professional, respectful, knowledgeable, and very thorough. You can tell that he takes pride in his work and goes the extra mile when working on a project. We will definitely use his services again and highly recommend him.

Painting and bathroom ceiling repairs

We were extremely pleased with the work done by Alan and Paul - they were both very professional and did an outstanding job with the painting and repairs. In addition, both are very polite and do an excellent job of cleaning up completely after each day's work and replacing all displaced furniture. Completely satisfied and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a contractor for home repairs, additions , painting.
