Artisan Contracting by J. OTT

Alex and his team did a wonderful job with our bathroom renovation! They helped us decide on the design, choose great materials, and made sure each part of the project was done with excellent workmanship. Each person on the team was kind, knowledgable and excellent at their job. They paid close attention to detail, ensuring everything looked exceptional and functioned flawlessly. We would highly recommend Artisan Contracting to anyone looking to do a renovation!

Alex and his team were excellent from beginning to end of the job. Professional; reliable; timely communication; high quality craftmanship; renovation cost was clearly outlined in quote, so no unexpected expenses. It was a pleasure to work with them to improve my home. I highly recommend Alex and his team.

Alex and his team did a wonderful job renovating the exterior of our home. There is a before and after picture attached to this review.They helped us with the design process and meet with us at suppliers to select materials that would work well together. Because of their extensive experience, they were able to caution us during the design phase from making choices that we would have regretted.Communication and expectations were always very clear. The team was very accommodating to changes as the job unfolded and always made sure that we had a clear understanding of the costs associated with our proposed changes and how much extra time that would add to the job. There were no surprises when the final bill arrived. Except for our changes to the scope of work, the job would have been finished on time and on budget!They took a lot of pride and care in the work that they did on our home - almost as much as we did! Each night they took extra time to ensure that the job site was cleaned up. This was something that we really appreciated as it minimized the impact not only on our property but also on the neighbour’s property as well.We would highly recommend Alex and his team to anyone looking to have work done to their home. We can’t wait to work with them again on our next project!

Alex and his team did a fantastic job with our main floor renovation. This was an extensive project that involved a new open concept living space, a change in the roofline to accommodate a cathedral ceiling, an all new kitchen with island, dining room and family room built-ins, flooring and a new staircase as well as a reconfigured entranceway and closet area. Alex did an excellent job keeping us informed of project progress and helping us to make decisions on project scope that also affected the budget. In addition to the excellent and detail oriented work of his team, he also brought in high quality sub-trades for the kitchen cabinetry, electrical and plumbing work, painting, drywall, masonry and tiling. Overall we are delighted with the quality of the work by Artisan to modernize and to beautify our home!

We had a very positive experience using Artisan Contracting for a kitchen renovation. Jim and Alex are very detail oriented: they provided an honest and accurate estimate, good communication throughout the process, and the final result was a beautiful kitchen of the highest quality. We would happily work with them again and would recommend them to anyone.

Alex and team are great. I had 2 bathrooms fully renovated with them. The price was very reasonable (giving the market conditions that were crazy), and Alex was extremely honest with me. All the discounts he's got, we deduced from the budget we discussed. On the work itself, as any constructions, we had some delays, but nothing out of the ordinary for a tricky renovation. Alex was always on top of those and have been proactively communicative about next steps with dates. The final work is great. A very clean result with no regrets on my side, or more importantly, my wife's side. The options I was given by Alex for my budget do have great quality. We were even able to buy superior quality faucets and shower kits. I recommend this company and I plan to work with them again in my next renovation.

It was a pleasure to work with Artisan Contracting, specifically Alex and his team. They were not only very professional and accommodating, they met all of our needs and gave us a wonderful final product. Renovating our entire main floor, including kitchen, laundry room, powder room, as well as removing a wall and installing new flooring throughout was a a very daunting task but Alex and the team made it as easy as they could for us each step of the way. They were always open to answering questions and provided ideas and solutions. Overall, it was a much better experience than we could have ever imagined and we sincerely recommend Artisan Contracting!

Let me tell you something about this guy!Alex and his crew are great. He handled an absolutely massive renovation for us. Full main floor renovation (including complete kitchen and powder room remodel), structural walls removed and replaced with beams which required new footings to be dug in the basement. New flooring on the main floor, 90% of walls and ceilings removed to create new layouts or re-run plumbing or HVAC. New flooring, framing, drywall and lighting in the basement.And a complete ensuite remodel and renovation.He initially quoted the job for us in spring 2021 and after some dithering on my part, kept the quote price when I accepted about 2 months later (if you recall what was going on with prices at that time, that was a big deal). Renovation started September 2021 and was initially scheduled to be done by Christmas. Unfortunately some scope changes, supply line snarls and one truly, truly awful neighbour delayed completion until February. Delays were communicated in a timely manner and an updated schedule was provided as soon as issues were known.Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, flooring, foundation, cabinets, masonry, framing, drywall, you name it, he either does or has a guy. He coordinated his sub-trades extremely well. We're over a year out from completion and there's been no issues that have arisen in the interim.Highly recommend. 5 stars.

Jim Ott, Alex Ott & team are amazing. Communication, workmanship, quality products etc. are all outstanding. We had a major renovation done, which turned our very outdated home, into something we are very proud to show off now. Would not hesitate to recommend Artisan Contracting to anyone. Jim is a true gentleman and his staff are a reflection of that.Janice & Joel Marks
