    Basement Development

    Before hiring Planit Builders to develop our basement we had a few other general contractors come to do estimates for us. We have a fairly small, walkout basement and it is a fairly odd shape. However, our goal was to have a bathroom, a proper bedroom and a family room/rec room. Another thing that was important to us was to change the basement door out so that it was a proper French door (with both doors able to open up to create a double wide opening to the backyard). Before selecting PLANiT Builders we were told things like “you don’t have room for a bedroom” or “French doors are out of your budget.” In contrast, when Sonny came to do our estimate, he came with solutions. He listened to what we wanted, took one look around and started making suggestions. Had we thought about moving the plumbing so the bathroom could be in a more optimal position? What about turning the closet sideways so we could make the bedroom fit? You want to change the doors? Sure, no problem! By the time he left, we were feeling uplifted and excited about what our basement could become. However, after the previous comments from the other GC’s we were a little hesitant to believe that they could follow through with what they promised...but they did! A week early. And at a very reasonable cost. Speaking of cost, I really liked that you knew upfront how much you were going to pay for the work performed. With the other GC’s, we were given a very loose figure as an estimate. This made me quite uneasy since one little hiccup could derail them and result in a huge unexpected cost to us. Other than a few minor changes that we made to our plan before we approved the drawings (i.e. adding pot lights and a dimmer switch), our cost paid was the amount Sonny quoted the first day he was here. Talk about stress free! I also liked that Planit Builders really takes ownership of the entire job. There entire team (including the contractors they hire) work together to rectify any problems that they encounter and ultimately make sure that the job is done right. It is clear that Planit Builders top priority is customer service as they truly do strive to make you happy. They asked for feedback regularly, and immediately took action if something could be done better. Beau was excellent at getting back to us in a timely manner and kept us in the loop at all times. Overall, we had an excellent experience with Planit Builders and I would recommend them to anyone who wants great service, a stress free experience and a quality product for a reasonable price.

    Basement development

    I am delighted with my finished basement and the process of getting the job done. The detailed invoice and the companies experience meant I knew exactly what to expect- and thats exactly what I got. Beau and Dave were reliable, accessible, completely trustworthy. I was always well informed personally and via Builderstend. They responded promptly to any concerns and resolved them all.

    Basement Development

    We spent quite a bit of time researching and investigating different companies to develop our unfinished basement and finally agreed to go with Planit Builders. We are the original owners of our home and had it built for us 10 years ago and finally decided it was time to finish the basement and from this experience we had a good idea of what we were looking for in a developer to finish our basement. Steve Belanger was assigned as the site supervisor to our project and we were extremely impressed from the beginning with Steve's knowledge and expertise not only with the construction process, but, also being able to add his own ideas to improve the design from the original blueprints in subtle ways that we would never have thought of to change. This guy is an EXPERT! The only reason why we feel that we cannot give a rating of 10/10 on "how satisfied are you with this company," was our experience with our sales representative. There were a few items that came up that we had to remind our sales rep of promises guaranteed that were attempted to be added as extra costs to our final invoice that we understood was already included. When we addressed our concerns any issues were quickly acknowledged and taken care of, but, while dealing with these issues it left a feeling of frustration. We would not hesitate to use Planit Builders again for any future project and would highly recommend their services to anyone out there who is looking to take them on as a contractor.

    two car garage

    After my husband passed away, for safety reasons I wanted a garage.From day one I was very happy with Planit Builders. When Don Spencer came to give me an estimate he was great he made me feel very comfotable with going with Planit Builders. They had all the things that I was looking for like WCB and BBB. When building started the one thing that made me know I went with the right company was when they cut down my fence they carefully took down my birdhouse with the birds still in it and placed it on my shed so the birds could fine it. When I started working with Steve Belanger he was great. He always called to let me know what was going on, like who would be coming over. Before my garage was finished a hail storm hit, I didn`t have insurace yet, so I was very upset. Well I called Steve and he told me not to worry, he would take care of it. Well he did fix every thing for me. Steve just went out of his way to help me. When I went to pay my bill my visa would only do 5000.00 at a time. So Bethany Grant took the payments over a few days. It was much easier for me. THANK YOU EVERYONE.

    basement

    We had our basement built by Planit Builders and our construction supervisor is Steve Belanger. We had glitches at first with this builder but because Steve was patient, professional and accommodating with our needs and questions, we had put our trust on him in making what we wanted for our basement. Moreover, Steve is very hardworking person, he caters to our inquiries even during his time offs. He makes sure that jobs are done on time and he responds very quickly. He was pleasant to talk to and will get back to you as soon as he can. If we are going to do our garage next time, we definitely hire them again... Kudos to you! :)

    Our little basement is done and I would like to congratulate PLANiT Builders for pulling an awesome job! Quality is great, and with wonderful staff and competent contractors, what more could you ask for? Our kids love the additional space in our house.

    basement Development

    Had our basement completed by Planit Builders. We were very pleased with the final outcome of the project. Not to say that we didn't run into some complications with the contractors they used. The project was supposed to take 3 months but lasted 6 months. The site Supervisor Graham Shepard was very accommodating and understanding. The project took so long, we were going to charge Graham rent (just joking). He did however make sure that we were completely satified before signing off on the job. I would strongly recommend Planit for future projects but would insist that they used their more seasoned trades and not the new ones they were trying out. All in all, a good experience.

    Garage

    I had a garage built a short while ago and am extremely satisfied with the finished product. The estimator Murray Primeau was very professional and easy to talk to. He had an answer to every question I had and explained everything thoroughly. Graham Shepherd my site coordinator was also professional and easy to talk to. If there was any concerns on my part he dealt with them immediately and was always easy to contact. The building process was smooth and stress free. When the building was finished he went out of his way to provide all the finishing touches and leave the building site in pristine condition. Thank you fro such a positive experience!

    Garage

    I recently had my garage built by PLANiT Builders and I must say it was one of the best customer service experiences I’ve ever had, from start to finish. I would like to especially thank my site supervisor, Patrick Card for getting the job done ahead of schedule. He was very attentive, punctual, professional and definitely a pleasure to deal with. He even convinced my kids to have their handprints and names engraved into the concrete, which meant a lot to me. At the end of each meeting, he made sure I was one very happy and satisfied customer. I would highly recommend PLANiT Builders to anyone looking to build a garage :)

    Basement Development

    We just have our basement developed by PLANiT Builders and we are very happy with the results. Thanks to the entire PLANiT team as they all were very helpful and professional throughout the entire process. I like the level of detail involved in the estimate, design and project kick-off. Marc Turco was the site supervisor assigned for our project and he was very detailed from the start and always on top of things. In addition to the schedule in Builder Trend, he will call us and let us know who is coming and what`s being done. we're also impressed how he managed to keep the place clean and tidy during the construction stage. Overall we are very much satisfied with the outcome and recommend PLANiT Builders
