Home Addition

We hired Rob and Helen to excavate and build out a new cold storage room and porch. What a great pleasure it was to deal with them.
From the initial meeting, right up to when the project was complete, they were always there ready to answer any questions, address any concerns that arose and offer opinions on our solutions, or even providing their own. Communication was key, and we were kept in the loop the entire way.
As for work, they were onsite practically daily, and if no work was being done on a specific day, they would tell us ahead of time the reason for that.
I am quite pleased with the end result, and should we decide to carry out any other work on our house, we will definitely call Rob and Helen again!!

Excellent quality from top notch builders

Review
Rob & Helen are fantastic! We embarked on a major home renovation adding 2 bedrooms, 1 den/studio, 2 bathrooms, dining room + basement. The De Ponte's took care of us consistently from day 1 until every detail was complete. They are a power duo checking every trade's work and having any work that does not meet their high standards re-done. They treated our home like it was their own. Bulkheads were minimized wherever possible, space was optimized, fixtures and finishings were perfect and they handled our last minute changes with ease. The project was on-budget and on-time. Rob and Helen are sincere, pragmatic, professional, dependable, honest and fun! They coordinated all the requirements so we did not have to. When we were not sure what decision to make they guided us. Our home turned out beautifully and we are so happy with the results. Looking forward to hiring Rob & Helen for our future projects. We highly recommend De Ponte Construction. They are a superstar team!

Basement Reno

I called Robert and Helen after seeing some reviews here. I needed someone who would help me find answers to the issues I was having with water and smells. I enjoyed working with them. They were committed to doing the job right. Trustworthy and I would use them again.

Garage & Front Porch Addition

Rob & Helen were recommended to us by a friend/neighbour. They came to meet with us to discuss our plans & vision for the exterior of the home. Within 2 weeks they provided us with a quote and itemized everything. We are very happy we chose Rob & Helen to do the work on our home. They were always available for questions, offered options for various materials and design, and resolved any issues that arose, to ensure we were satisfied with the outcome. We are very satisfied with the outcome of the project and would recommend them to anyone.

Bathroom renovation

Helen and Rob did impeccable work and professionally managed the project from start to finish with a high level of detail and eye for quality. We hired De Ponte construction for a bathroom addition on our main floor. They did a very clean job, showed up every day on time, and delivered a beautiful and functional bathroom as promised. We were very happy with the final product and will most certainly hire them for our next project.

Four Season Complete Suite Renovation

Robert and Helen were key in the project management and site supervision of this project. This project consisted of extremely high end finishes and involved a significant amount of coordination between trades, designer and management team. As team Robert and Helen manage to cover all details and go above and beyond to make the project successful and insure the end client is satisfied.

Patching and Painting Kitchen, Hallway, Family room and front portico

Helen and Robert DePonte are excellent General Contractors who use skilled craftsmen with attention to detail. The painters did excellent work, and colour matched my Farrow and Ball colours exactly; Helen and Robert were on site several times daily, made sure I was happy with the work as it progressed, and at the end of each day inspected all of the work, and at the end of the job. They are honest, and charge a fair price for well executed work. They are totally trustworthy, congenial and a joy to know!

Main floor Modernization of 1953 Bungalow (Kitchen, Living area)

If you are looking to welcome honest and caring contractors into your home to complete improvements, look no further. Where Rob and Helen excelled: their attention to detail and forward planning, "When this step is complete, how would you like to blend it into the rest of your home?"; their client service and flexibility, "Is this okay? Do you like this?"; and their problem solving ability "This appliance will protrude slightly, here are some options for that."   

Rob and Helen modernized the main floor of our 1953 brick bungalow and completed the following:  restoration and matching of original hardwood floors, planning and layout for open concept kitchen, demolition, framing, insulation, counters, cabinets, lighting and electrical, painting, appliances, tiling, parallel coordination of gas line, central heat, and air conditioning.

 The De Ponte's initial quote and assessment was true to scope and budget. If you're seeking quotes, place a De Ponte Construction quote next to any other provider and I think you'll be likely to find that your more inexpensive quotes are missing steps in the project plan and the more expensive quotes have created too much budget space and missed opportunities for project efficiency and cost savings.  Thank you again Rob and Helen!
