Steadfast Construction And Renovations

Having worked with Steadfast before for our bathroom renovation, we contracted them again to perform a kitchen gut renovation in a century-old semi in The Beach.

Again, Mike and his team did a very good job.

The project included:
— Demolition and disposal of debris
— Install a dust membrane to minimize dust migration
— Frame all walls
— Level floor and install plywood subfloor
— Install insulation and vapour barrier in walls and under the floor
— Install plumbing
— Electrical: wire and install 6 pot-lights, 4 pendant lights, under-cabinet lights, 2 external lights, switches, hood fan
— Install Schluter floor heating system with sensor and
— Install tile floor
— Work with a subcontractor who measured the kitchen, designed it on Ikea’s website, purchased and installed the cabinets.
— Coordinate with third-party company that installed exterior sliding door
— Install and paint drywall
— Install ceramic backsplash
— Supply and install quartz countertop
— Lay bricks to cover old window AC unit
— Clean up the site

Project duration: ~6 weeks

Mike was adaptable and amenable when it came to “surprises” that are inherent with century-old houses.

The floor heating thermostat that came with the system was inadequate and Mike sent an electrician after the end of the project to install a new thermostat for no extra-cost.

Similarly, we noticed that the external hood vent was making a loud noise when windy and Mike found a solution to tamper it after the end of the project.

The team did a reasonable job at keeping the kitchen and surrounding area clean.

Our only recommendation to future clients is to maintain constant and clear communication directly with Mike.
