    Basement Renovation/Insurance Claim

    What a wonderful experience we had with John and his team. Vito, Jeff, and Oaklan were true professionals and made our home whole again. After suffering a flood in early July we contacted the team through homestars and we couldn't have asked for a better, more professional crew. Their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile made for a relatively quick and seamless operation. Without John's great advice on how to approach our insurance claim we would have suffered greatly. We will be reconnecting with Oborne Contracting for any further work on our home!! Thanks again for all your hard work!

    Answer from pro:

    This industry can be challenging at times, as working in people’s homes often disrupts their daily lives and can create high levels of stress. However, when we have the opportunity to work with understanding clients who embrace the process, it makes the experience so much more enjoyable. We are incredibly grateful to you and your wonderful family for trusting us, being patient, and allowing us the privilege of restoring your basement. It was truly a pleasure working with you, and we would be delighted to assist you again in the future if the need arises. Regards John and the entire Oborne Contracting staff

    Detailed Work, Well Executed

    You can tell a lot of about a contractor, not just by the big jobs, but by the little ones. After speaking with a handful of installers recommended by the manufacturer of our snazzy new Italian induction cooktop, we choose Oborne Contracting. They were fantastic. Detail focused, well executed, great clean-up. Exceeded our expectations in every way.

    Asement, basement bathroom and ensuite bathroom

    Osborne contracting showed up right on time and eagerly got to the needed demolition. Unfortunatly there were several days where they did not have staff available slowing down the project. Their attention to detail and having something done right was exceptional. Good communication between the site manager and client so most of the time I knew what time the contractor would be starting. We love our new spaces.

    Answer from pro:

We're thrilled that you love your new spaces and that our team's attention to detail and commitment to quality met your expectations. We apologize for the days when our staffing was limited, leading to a few very slight delays. However, it's important to highlight that we did remain within the contractual timeline laid out, even with the additional work requested. While unforeseen circumstances can sometimes affect our schedule, we always prioritize completing every aspect of the project to the highest standards of craftsmanship. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're glad that the communication between our site Project Managers and Construction Director kept you well-informed throughout the process. We greatly appreciate your business and look forward to the opportunity to work with you again in the future. Regards John Oborne and the entire Oborne Contacting Staff

    Great job by Oborne Contracting

    John is one of the best contractors out there. He is very friendly, honest and patient. Even though it was a small job, he displayed care and attention to detail and took the time to explain everything and made sure I had no questions. The quality of work was excellent, they went the extra mile to ensure the area was safe and clean after the work. We will definitely go back to Oborne Contracting for more projects. Thank you John and Caleb!

    Professional, Honest and Dedicated

    I recently got a house and have had at least half a dozen handymen and contractors visit to provide assessments and quotes on a few pieces of work including abatement work for my basement after flooding. Oborne Contracting was the only one I could bank on - from the experienced owner who goes the extra mile, to a team that is focused and dedicated, you know you're in the right hands. They follow procedures, are on time (actually early), and keep you in the loop. Would recommend wholeheartedly.

    Answer from pro:

    So happy to have been able to help Kanha. It was a pleasure to work for you and your wife. Regards John Oborne and the entire Oborne Contacting Staff

    Terrace renovation

    I'd hired Oborne several years ago for another project which turned out well so I hired them again this time to demolish my old terrace and install new planters. The work was completed faster than I expected and the project turned out perfectly. Thank you!

    Replace plumbing & tap in laundry room; Replace puck lights in 2 bathrooms

    The company owner, John, assessed the requested work initially through detailed pictures which we provided. He answered all of our many questions. Up front, he itemized the company's billing procedures. His courteous, knowledgeable, friendly manner certainly reassured us. Jeff, the project manager, accomplished all of the work in laundry room and bathrooms in two short phases even when we added an additional small job (dimmer switches for the new lights.) His skilful workmanship was much appreciated; he did an excellent job in completing these projects including totally cleaning up the area after. Always he was very polite, informative, and professional. We are so very happy with our new bright lights and an amazing, cleaner- looking tap in the laundry room sink. Also, we were pleased with how flexible and adaptable the company is with scheduling the work. I would, without a doubt, recommend this company. They did an outstanding job with our small projects.

    Answer from pro:

Your recommendation realy means a lot to us, and again we are so grateful for your kind words. We look forward to working with you again in the future. Sincerely, John Oborne

    We were saved

    After an incredibly frustrating experience with our original contractor, we were left in a state of disarray and disappointment, feeling like we had been duped despite our thorough research. Our project was severely behind schedule and abandoned for weeks at a time. It wasnt until we reached the framing stage that we realized the poor quality of work being provided. In desperate need of a reliable and professional team, our real estate agent referred us to Oborne Contracting. Reaching out to them was the best decision we could have made. From the moment we met John, the owner, we knew we had found someone we could trust. His professionalism and construction knowledge were impressive. He spent the better part of a morning with us, reviewing the project, understanding the challenges we had faced, and outlining the best steps forward. John was certainly a sympathetic ear. We immediately called dozens of his over 100 references provided in a well-organized company information package. A few days later, we hired Oborne to take over our project. After a short wait of a few weeks, John and his team began their work. They quickly took control of the situation, ensuring a seamless transition that put our minds at ease. They took the time to understand our vision and requirements, repaired the previous contractor's work, and completed our project without further issues, addressing every detail meticulously. The team at Oborne Contracting is courteous, communicative, and dedicated to customer satisfaction. They kept us informed every step of the way, always ensuring we were happy with the progress. Their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile were truly impressive. Thanks to Oborne Contracting, our project transformed from a source of stress and frustration into a beautifully completed work that we are so proud of. We cannot recommend them highly enough. If you are looking for a contractor who cares and delivers outstanding results with professionalism and integrity, consider calling John. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Oborne Contracting, for turning our nightmare into a dream come true! We hope this testimonial effectively conveys your gratitude and the positive impact you had on us.

    Answer from pro:

    Hello A.B. And G.O. Thank you for the kind words, but let's be honest, while we took over and worked hard to do what needed to be done to finish the work at a high quality, it was still not a project without its hiccups. Construction is an unpredictable world, and is never as easy as one might think, but as long as there are good lines of communication, sites are left in clean and reasonable states, and quality of work is priority then clients are generally very happy. We are so pleased we could come in and help you complete your vision. We loved working with and for you. Now it's time to enjoy your new home! John Oborne
