Sider Bros Builders LTD

We remain thrilled with our new home built in 2019 by Shawn Sider and his team at Sider Bros. Construction. From working with our architect to helping choose interior finishes, the Sider team was responsive and helped our decision making tremendously. The quality of construction and craftsmanship is superb. And, Shawn and his team continue to be available to us for questions and other matters related to our property. Shawn's calm and purposeful demeanor helped us through an unfamiliar process, and we could not be more pleased with the result.Margaret & Bob Zak

In 2013, we purchased a property on the shores of Lake Erie that we used as a seasonal cottage until 2019 when we decided that we were ready to build a new home and relocate there permanently. We hired an architect to develop plans for our home and once we had a good sense of what we were building, we began a search for a contractor. Having seen work that the Sider Bros had done in the area, we decided that they should be part of the selection process.We found Shawn very knowlegeable, experienced and responsive. We visited some of his other work sites and were impressed with the quality and craftsmanship. We also liked that idea that Sider Bros were able to produce any custom work directly from their own mill, with Wayne at the helm.Once we agreed to go forward with Sider Bros, the start date of the build was established and executed accordingly. The whole build process was relatively easy and well guided by Shawn. We never felt overwhelmed by all the decisions that needed to be made with the help and guidance from Shawn and the Sider team.We also had to deal with a neighbour that was not pleased with a build happening next door, but the Sider team and their subcontractors were responsive and professional and went well above expectations to appease them.After 18 months and through COVID, our new home was as we had hoped. The quality and craftsmanship of the work stands out as soon as you approach the front door of our home. Also, the service after the construction was finished has been excellent.We have highly recommended Sider Bros to our friends, and would extend that recommendation to anyone that are looking to build or renovate their home.Gino Stinziani and Christine Allen

Sider Brothers did a fine job on the building of our beach home. We always felt that we were in the best of hands. The house they built has been a source of great pride.Very importantly to us has been the post construction service we have received. Many times over the years, Shawn has come to our aid when we were out of town and something needed to be done in the house. It's been a pleasure working with Shawn over the past 10 years.

Shawn Sider patiently guided me through the process of building my home. He is committed to delivering exceptional quality and gives careful consideration to every aspect of the project. Shawn is meticulous and genuinely cares that the customer is satisfied with the outcome. The same attention to detail is evident in work completed by Sider Bros. employees on site and in their woodworking shop, which produced all my cabinetry and interior trim. Throughout the build, it became apparent Sider Bros. is so highly reputable as a custom home builder for good reason. I look forward to many years in the home with peace of mind knowing it was built with quality workmanship and materials. The combination of trustworthiness and quality craftsmanship is why I strongly recommend Sider Bros.

We hired Sider Bros to put James Hardie Cement board on our waterfront house and do some remodeling. Sider failed to follow JHB instillation instructions using proper spacing and not caulking non factory edges now the cement board siding is cracking and falling off the house. Shawn is extremely unprofessional and will not own up to the mistakes they made.

By every measure, they are the best. Recently, Shawn and his crew did some more work for us, and once again, they did a spectacular job. We have an old house with challenges, and Sider Brothers treated us as if it were their own place. Shawn, in particular, is very hands on, and responsive to his clients. You won't be disappointed!

We are very pleased with Sider Brothers extensive restoration of our Victorian lake house. There were many unique construction challenges associated with the restoration and Shawn always came up with excellent solutions.Several different crews worked on the project and they have all been very pleasant, efficient, flexible, and honest. When working inside the house, they were very considerate.Sider Brothers' work is always very high quality and we would highly recommend them.Marie and Ken Martens

Sider Bros is an outstanding custom home builder. Their attention to detail and quality craftsmanship will not be surpassed. Shawn and his entire team are honest, considerate, practical and consultative. You quickly realize they are able to deliver the necessary skills and products themselves or through their connections in the trades to successfully bring your dream to reality.Our neighbours commented how considerate they were during the building process and this was important to us to minimize their disruption.Visitors to our home are amazed at the quality of the millwork and the fact that Sider Bros has the in-house capability to produce custom trim, doors, fireplaces and cabinetry. This is one key feature that sets them apart from any other builder. It was an important differentiator for us. They are creative and not limited by the standard product lines other builders use. Their work is truly bespoke.When asked by others about how our build went we tell them it was a great experience and if we were ever to build another house there isn’t any other builder we would consider. Sider Bros care about what they do and it’s evident in their finished product and how they stand behind it. They are proud of their work, very professional and a genuine pleasure to work with!

Our experience working with Sider Brothers was extremely satisfying. From planning, to the finished work and even the finances, Sider is top notch and delivered on all promises. They gave us ideas for our new deck and screened room that enhanced the rest of the house in surprising ways. It has become the most important part of our house because of the design input that they encouraged us with. You only get this from companies with years of experience who truly care about the results they produce. Suggestion: If you are lucky enough to get Shawn and his crew to work on your house, listen to their input and let them get to work. This is the only company I would use for a renovation or build in our area. This is a recent exterior picture … deer included.

Sider Brothers Ltd came highly recommended as a high-quality reputable builder that stands behind their work. Indeed, they do. We were very fortunate that Sider Bros was able to build our custom designed home on Lake Erie. It was a pleasure working with Shawn, Sider Bros interior designer, project manager, and contractors. Even though construction was during Covid, construction progressed timely with expected high quality.
