Sunroom renovation

I posted a job on here in October 2023 to have the 2 small walls in my sun room (11 feet each in length) renovated - remove the old screen walls and replace them with framed drywall walls and a door to the outside. The door was to be an inexpensive 32 door with a window. Despite Rez having measured everything he did not realize he could not install an outward swinging door because it would hit the roof of my gazebo on my deck. It was his helper that noticed this during framing and offered the suggestion of sliding patio doors. Rez asked for an additional $500 for this change. I paid him immediately - the same day. It took months for the patio doors to be delivered and he promised they would be installed while I was on holiday from Jan 23 to 30, 2024. I came home and they were not installed. 2 weeks later he came and installed them. They are not level and do not latch or lock. Ive contacted him repeatedly to return and fix them and complete the job. There is still more drywalling to do, windows and doors to be trimmed and interior walls to be painted. He says he doesnt do exterior work in the winter - but he took 90% of the cost of the job before Christmas 2023! There is also exterior siding to be done and this also remains incomplete.
This has been an awful experience and extremely stressful. This project started in November 2023 and is still not done.

Many times we mentioned that we do not work in wintertime and the Sun room is extremely cold...A professional painter will know exactly what I'm talking about. You can't paint on a cold day. In an area that does absolutely have no heat. The paint will crack and it will not stick or dry...This homeowner, on the other hand doesn't understand that she is very rude and argumentative and absolutely has no understanding how things work and when the job started Unfortunately, it was close to Christmas holidays. There were delays with where I ordered the doors from home depot and that's totally out of my control again. She would not understand that, so there's nothing that we can do and we are not going to do what the homeowners thinks is right We are going to do the way we know it's the right way..
I have all the communication and text messages.If anybody is interested to read them i'm more than happy to send it to with pictures.

Bathroom renovation

Reza came in to fix the work of another handyman and we are so grateful for his expertise and knowledge. He completed the renovation in a timely and cost effective manner and was very professional. We will definitely hire him again for future projects.

Simply Amazing!! I decided to go with Skylane Construction Services Inc. after considering three other companies due to Rezs professionalism and transparency. My wife and I are happy with the quality of work and will be using his services for our future home renovation projects.

Poor Workmanship

Start date was October 1, 2022. He was to install new hardwood flooring and renovate our downstairs bathroom. The install of the hardwood floor was completed, and he only had the stairs and trim to finish on the flooring. This was finally finished when we returned from Florida during the first week of April. He assured it would be completed while were in Florida numerous times by text message, unfortunately it was not. Also, the first time we used the new shower we noticed pooling in the front of the shower and that it was not sloped properly to the drain. his excuse was I told you it needed a higher curb on the glass wall. There was always an excuse on why things were not completed on time. We started texting him on the phone in May about the issue with the drainage and now grout issues. Now he says it is going to cost extra and he has never come to look at the issue.

As a general contractor, my job is not only to execute the project but is also to explain and educate my homeowners as well. I explained to you several times, that without a curb it is impossible to slope the shower floor towards the drain on a concrete floor using a 12x24 ceramic tiles. You refused and keep asking me to tile your bathroom floor and shower floor all in one level without a curb. The reason the curbs is there is to hold the water in the shower and also having enough depth to build up the shower floor to be able to slop the shower floor towards the drain...
I had to install a marble jam along the shower floor between the shower and bathroom floor so I could raise the tiles in the shower a bit to slope it towards the drain and of course a 3/4" thick jam is not enough hight. You actually made my job more difficult and now you are complaining that it's not sloped enough?
Yes if I need to come back to correct that I need to build a 4inch curb first remove all the tiles from the shower floor and start all over again and I will charge you for that...
This is your mistake. I will highly recommend next time to listen to your contractor so you dont have pay extra for your mistakes.
This is not the first time I built a shower or renovated a bathroom.

Deck repair/replace

Very low-quality job on the finishing. He tried to leave without taking some scraps that I paid him extra to take, plus he did not cut a piece of wood that I noticed after he left that is longest than needed between my plants.

Flooring and Bathroom Tile

Reza did a great job helping us rebuild our basement after a flood. He and his team repaired the drywall, installed new flooring and put in a new tiled surround for our bathtub. He was very easy to work with and provided a detailed quote of exactly what was to be completed. He corresponded with our plumber and worked around our tenants schedule. I would definitely recommend his services.

New wooden flooring and bathroom tile installation

The finish isn't good. The project was drawn out, to the point that we just paid for it to be over. We'll have someone come and tidy his work up.

There was ZERO attention to detail - and Reza had lots of answers but never a solution. His trade people didn't speak much English and for most part Reza wasn't on site to manage them.

Reza's communication skills weren't good enough, our project was made to feel like something that he was fitting around his 'big jobs' and that we weren't a priority. His answer to this was that he was struggling with labour and talent - which was made to feel like my problem.

All a shame really, he's a nice guy but a better salesperson than General Contractor.

I'm sorry that you feel this way Mat your husband was much more understanding...like I say to all my clients
before you leave us a nonsense review... just give us a call and we'll come back if there are any issues. Which you failed to do so...I can't be everywhere I have other projects that I need to be at...you should have also wrote down that I left you $950 worth of baseboards for free, which i should have charged you for...
"Reza had lots of answers but never a solution"??? That's your opinion, but it seems like reviews from other clients in the past have said otherwise.
"The project was drawn out, to the point we just paid for it to be over"?? The project was over Mat,
that's what you do at the end of a project... you pay.
That's your opinion it doesn't mean that you're right.
Next time you leave a review, please leave a review, don't vent. All you did was just criticize my guys, and myself.

Kitchen Reno

My husband and I decided to call back Skylane construction for our kitchen renovation project. We could not be more pleased with the end result. The kitchen is much brighter, we have way more counter and cabinet space. Skylane Construction helped us to design our kitchen layout very well! I have attached a few picture. Everything again up to budget, timing we were flexible, because we understand that not everything is the same since covid started. We were just happy to get it before the holidays...Rez and his team did a great job...We highly recommend Skylane construction For their professionalism attitude and workmanship..Thank you Skylane Construction
