Major Home Renovation

We used Woodsmith Construction for a significant home renovation project that was completed in 2019. What sets Woodsmith Construction apart and what was the highlight of our experience with this company was its after-completion service. Chris Smith continues to respond to our inquiries in an extremely timely way and he stands behind his company's work. Even questions that might seem extremely basic are answered with care and professionalism. When we had issues with home repairs that were unconnected to the work that Woodsmith Construction completed, Chris continued to offer assistance and support, even when he didn't really need to.

Garage Replacement

The existing garage was dilapidated and near collapse. Woodsmith was recommended to us by our neighbour.

Chris was very patient with us as we were very cost conscious and admittedly a bit difficult to please in that area.

We ran into some issues that drove up costs but Chris was very forward with the details and helped keeps costs under control and kept us from exceeding our available funding.

If something didn't go as planned Chris made sure to fix the issue as best as he could. He has high standards for his work and his actions were always in support of his ideals.

Our garage is almost a year old now. Everything is still working well. We have heard comments from strangers on how beautiful the garage is.

Thank you Chris and team for getting the job done despite the various challenges the project encountered.

Hi Patrick, thank you so much for your review and I hope you and your family are all safe and healthy. It was a pleasure working with you to get your garage built, it did have its challenges but every project does. We were able to over come them together and I know that new garage will serve you well for many years to come.

Thanks,

A well built home indeed

I had the rare opportunity to have owned a Woodsmith-built home, and also experience renovations from the same. Chris is a great person to deal with, and the home was one of the most sturdiest and resilient homes I have ever had. I would highly recommend Chris for work that requires attention to detail, for a reasonable price. Cost is for renos only.

Kitchen and Bathroom Renovations

We were very pleased with the results of our renovation project completed by Chris and his team at Woodsmith Construction. As well as a great end-product, Chris provided excellent customer communication services throughout the whole process that were greatly appreciated! We would have no hesitation in recommending Woodsmith Construction and in fact have already booked them for a second project.

Full Renovation in Bloorcourt

We worked with Chris for over a year as he and his team renovated our semi in the west end. It was a total gut job of an old house so had it challenges from the beginning. Chris was excellent at explaining the options and giving us pros and cons of each so that we could make informed decisions. Chris was always available during night or day to answer questions or return email. Chris was also excellent at managing our neighbours who proved quite problematic throughout the entire process. He always had an eye on the budget and timing and his projections were very close. His billing was transparent without any hidden costs.

Complete gut job, exterior work and garage addition.

Woodsmith construction just completed a gut job and garage addition for my husband and I and it was the best experience I could have hoped for especially given all the renovation horror stories we have heard. They were so professional, helpful, diligent and responsive and the quality of the renovation was first class. I would recommend anyone to hire Woodsmith construction for all their needs whether it is a renovation or a new build. We could not be happier with the outcome and our newly renovated home.

Third floor addition

We hired Woodsmith Construction and his team to turn the attic of our 1905 home to a master suite. In addition to the all-round good vibes we felt from Chris, he showed signs of being the most honest, capable, and confident in comparison to the other companies we interviewed. We felt like this was someone that we could trust with our savings and the future of our home.

Chris provided us with an itemized budget prior to the start of the renovation. From the beginning we could see clearly how much each portion of the project would cost. This was updated every couple of weeks to reflect the actual costs of the work that was completed or underway. This was extremely helpful and reassuring.

Woodsmith Construction also has a number of professional and courteous team members. We had an excellent experience with all the trades and sub-contractors that worked with Chris to make our home beautiful. Most importantly we are extremely happy with the workmanship and can tell that each member of the Woodsmith Construction team takes pride in creating quality spaces.

Our project was not lacking in obstacles along the way but ultimately we are delighted with the end result and would highly recommend Woodsmith Construction for any project.

Thank you Chris, Angelina and everyone at Woodsmtih for creating our dream space

East York Home Rebuild

The Woodsmith team did a phenomenal job of rebuilding our house to match our dream on-time and within our budget. Chris (the owner) was always accessible, open to ideas and patient with questions. This made all the difference for us. He understands that a job of this scale is something that an owner will likely only do once, and he offered great advice and put all our fears at ease. We constantly knew exactly how we were tracking to our budget (to the dollar) and our job site was clean and orderly at all times (which our neighbours very much appreciated). We were nervous about our year-long adventure in renos (we've all heard horror stories), but Chris helped us spread out decisions over time and provided clear options for any challenges his team encountered, making that year a surprisingly pleasant one. All of the work was top-quality and has garnered unsolicited positive comments from anyone who sees our home (including other contractors working in our neighbourhood). I have no problem recommending Woodsmith; you will be in very good hands.

Basement renovation

We couldn't be happier with the work done on our basement and the WAY that it was done. We knew every step of the way, what was happening, why and what all of the options were so that we could make our choices. We knew the costs all the way through with up-dates pretty much each week. The transformation is unbelievable. The rest of the house runs better now, too, because of the basement up-grade. We're just thrilled!!!
