Dave Silliker has cashed my deposit for $8000.00 and failed to show up for any work. Over a course of several weeks he has come up with one excuse after another as to why he could not start the job as promised. As of late he has refused to answer any phone messages and now his cell phone is no longer in service. I would caution anyone about doing any type of business with this man.

I have a flooring store in the Ottawa area Dave Silliker (Advanced Renovations) came in for a client he was doing nearby I did a full basement chose carpert installed full job done in 3 days. I googled his company name fell upon this website and saw he had positive refferals so I went ahead and asked the job be paid in full once complete. He dropped of a cheque worth 1/3 of the amount (I was out of the store at the time) the cheque BOUNCED.I contacted the client she said he was paid in full . I tried every possible way of reaching him and never called back. Now I have no other option but to hire a baillif to collect I am not impressed. Kevin

Can I use spray foam insulation in stone/rubble foundation, 100 year old house in Ontario climate?
I had my foundation dug up, waterproofed, drainage tiles and sump pump, new gutters and downspouts installed 2 years ago. There has been no leakage and everything is dry. The previous owner had some areas covered with pink insulation and plastic. I have removed all of that and the walls are dry. Can I have spray foam insulation used on the walls and if so should the framing be the blue treated wood I have seen on Reno shows?

James is correct, you can use foam and is a good application for it. The foam will make a very big difference in the "feel" of the basement, making it much warmer and more cozy. One technique we often use is utilizing blue wood studs as the bottom plate only for a steel stud wall above. Run regular plastic wiring BEHIND the steel studs (not through them) then insulate with foam. This seals the wall and 'glues' the steel stud to the wall, making the wall more firm.

Spot lights on a drop ceiling
Hello, I am looking to install some spotlights to high light our company sign. The ceiling is the dropceiling with standard flourencant lights. I dont know if this ceiling is capable of taking the weight of a spotlight. Please help! Thank you.

Any professional electrical contractor can install the lighting you require in the ceiling space and adequately supporting it. Each light MUST be independantly hung by chain from the roof, not just sitting on the tiles like untrained people do. Hire an Electrical contractor, not a DIY guy for electrical issues.
