The owners are ( were ) Troy and Jim Probert. Since my posting, they have disconnected their phone lines. Have been in contact with different agencies and have heard nothing, and I mean nothing but bad reviews about this company and these people. Our house is in shambles, we are out what we paid them, and the cost of getting someone else to come in and do the work. NONE of the work was completed. What was done was unsatisfactory. DO NOT HIRE THESE PEOPLE TO DO WORK FOR YOU!

Hired these guys back in October to do a job that I was told would take 2-3 weeks. End of June and still not completed. They do not answer their phone, answer messages or emails. Even if by the grace of God you get a hold of someone ( maybe once every three months ) they blow you off.

What is the cost of an addition to a house?
Hello, Just wondering what it might cost to build a 550 square foot addition to an existing house. Just to have an idea. I live in Halifax, NS. Thanks

Hi Maria, for budgeting, it would be in the $150 to $300 per square foot area. The range depends a lot on the interior and exterior finishes and how you will be using the spaces. Jim Kuzma Kettleby Handyman Services

Contractor substituted inferior products - what to do?
Hi - I feel like I have a real dilemma and am looking for some reasonable advice from some contractors out there. I received a quote from a local contractor company to do a number of small ventilation-related jobs around the house, installing fans and a central vac and so on. The contractor came, did a detailed inspection and sent me a quote, specifying particular products to be installed. We hired him based on the quote. He seems very knowlegeble, he is a hard worker and friendly. We like him. He is tidy, and when little things come up, he fixes them (e.g. he found an uncovered junction box in the attic insulation and covered it for us). BUT - the quote specifies a certain range hood, and he installed one that is less than half the price and half the quality of the one quoted. When I pointed it out, he said that he knew of the substitution, but that the office had made a typo and there was no way he could install the quoted product for the price quoted, and pointed out how hard he was working and how long everything was taking and how he wasnt making any money on the job, etc... How do I deal with this? He is still in my house doing other jobs and I don't want to totally piss him off, but on the other hand, I want the range hood I was quoted. Any advice??

Hi Sarah, the 2 sides that I see to this story. 1) You hired him based on a quote so you essentially have a contract with him to provide and install certain things at an agreed upon price. If he is a nice, honorable guy like you imply, you could probably force him to agree to live up to his side of the contract, even if it means eating a couple of hundred dollars to keep a client happy. It is a shame he didn't bring this to your attention before he installed it - you probably could have resolved it then with no hard feelings. 2) He made an honest mistake - it happens! If he is doing good work and you are generally happy with him, you could probably work something out with him. You cover the upgrade cost and he covers the additional labour? I'm sure 2 reasonable people can come up with a win / win scenario. Maybe you have to go back to "the office" and get them in on the resolution. Just my thoughts, for what they are worth. Good Luck with it. Jim Kuzma Kettleby Handyman Services
