Victory Carpentry

My home office was in the attic. It was dark and unusable for 5 months of the year: too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer. After spending half of the last 5 years working from our dining room table, it was time to turn the attic into a proper office and recreation space. Victory Carpentry was amazing: they tore it down to the bare bones, insulated the walls and ceiling, ensuring the shared wall with our neighbour was both sound-proofed and fire-proof. Our 120 year old house posed some challenges to ensure the 2x4's in walls and ceilings were flush to permit the dry wall to be mounted with straight lines and well-defined angles. (Did I mention that the peaked roof means there are lots of angled ceilings in the attic?)

Victor was great about making suggestions to enhance the design we had given him. The space is much more open and brighter thanks to some of his ideas and he found and built additional storage space for us we had not anticipated.

Each of his sub-contractors were friendly, knowledgeable and extremely competent. As someone who worked from home throughout the process, I met and chatted with everyone who came to what was a work site for them. However, they were mindful that their work site was both my home and workplace. Despite doing work that generated all kinds of dust and debris, you could hardly tell in the rest of the house that we were demolishing and rebuilding the third floor of our home. Victor made sure it was clean and dust free.

Victor seems to truly care about delivering quality work. His pride in his work is evident and it has resulted in a space we love spending time in!
