We had a partial bathroom renovation done together with kitchen lighting and a change in all the faucets in the house. Mike did an excellent job overall, and in the process even managed to eliminate the sound of groaning that had started in the pipes about a year ago and followed every toilet flush.
We were impressed by the detailed description of the work to be done, positive suggestions for better improvements in preparation for the sale of our house planned for next year, and excellent communication re. work progress via email. Jobs were completed very well and in a reasonable time frame as per his original promises. Mike even followed up after the completion of his work, to ensure our satisfaction.
We highly recommend Mike and his company, M2R Enterprises to anyone considering home renovations.

Mike was very knowledgeable about all aspects of construction. He was easy to work with. I would rate him a very well qualified contractor. I would definitely contact him again next time I am in need of renovation work.

We recently renovated our second floor bathroom with Mike of M2R and we are very happy with the results. There were a few unexpected items that came up, such as a plumbing in a wall we wanted to take down, but Mike was very diligent at explaining our options and trying to resolve things to our satisfaction. Mike uses high quality materials in the build process as well as licensed trades people, given that, his quote was very competitive and the project came in on budget. The unique thing about Mike is his communication; he keeps the customer completely involved with daily updates and willingly answers all questions until you are satisfied.
I only regret that we did not find Mike sooner and I will certainly call him back for any future renovations. I would highly recommend M2R Enterprises with no reservation to anyone interested in a high quality job by a trustworthy contractor.

We recently finished a basement renovation with Mike of M2R Enterprises. We were very pleased with the service we received. We worked with Mike to decide the layout of our new basement and he gave us suggestions how to maximize our space. The project came in within budget based on the quote that we were given. We felt that the materials used were of high quality and that the sub-contractors used for the electrical and drywall were of a high calibre and did a wonderful job.
We would hire Mike again for future renovations.

This feedback is for a new garage project Mike/M2R Enterprises has recently completed on my property.
I would like to express my highest appreciation for the way the project has been initiated, conducted and completed:
- The garage has been completed in time and within budget.
- Mike has provided technical support in the initial stage of obtaining construction permits and also during construction, with great ideas and useful suggestions for improved access.
- Excellent communication for the project duration. Mike has always been open for questions, responded in time and accurately and has provided weekly official status updates.
- At completion, Mike has left the construction site clean and free of debris.
I would definitely consider M2R Enterprises for similar projects in the future.
I would also recommend Mike’s services at any time to anybody looking for a trustworthy, committed to excellence and highly qualified construction contractor.

review of: Mike Himelfarb - M2R Enterprises
I would urge anybody who wants their job completed in a timely manner by a courteous, educated, budget-conscious contractor to contact Mike Himelfarb at M2R Enterprises.
He took the time to give me a general overview of the construction industry, do's and don'ts, what to look for and what to pass on. He was not a high pressure salesman but "read" as very honest and sincere.
So it wasn't brain surgery to have picked him to complete my roofing and bathroom repairs.
He subcontracted to a roofing company who had the job done in two days. Fast and efficient with no collateral damage in terms of mess or damage to the landscaping or environment.
Mike did the bathroom repair himself, and that was completed in an extremely timely fashion. He was courteous at all times, showed up when he said he was going to, called if he couldn't, and most importantly the work looks great! I had wanted to do some additional work which he recommended against (long story) and he was perfectly right in suggesting that. Most contractors would have jumped at the chance to make more money, but I think that Mike is legitimately concerned about customer satisfaction as much or more than he is about making a buck. This mirrors my own personal work ethic.
He also came in precisely on budget.
I was very impressed with his level of communication. One of my caveats was that the job had to be done quickly. I work from my home office and as such any disruption to my routine was going to be costly in terms of time lost. It is difficult to concentrate when you have construction workers stampeding on your roof or banging around your house when you are trying to work in an office space directly underneath and adjacent to the noise. Mike was cognizant of that and expedited the work so as to cause the least amount of disturbance. The noise from the roofers was unavoidable, but they were friendly and at least it was over quickly; I have seen other roofers in the area take several weeks to complete the same job, and these folks were done in two days.
Mike was so quiet when he was doing the work in my bathroom that I had to poke my head in several times to see if he was still there!
So not only did he communicate well, but he listened, advised and followed through on everything that he promised. He kept me informed every step of the way, answered any questions thoroughly and in as much detail as I needed without "dumbing down" as many professionals (in any field) will do when communicating with a layman. In other words he didn't make me feel like an idiot for asking what to him would be a self-evident question.
I think that the majority of people have the erroneous belief that construction workers & contractors are rough, undesirable of character and ill-educated; Mike certainly shattered that misconception as he was well-spoken, erudite, polite and indeed a true gentleman.
An excellent experience all the way around, and I would not hesitate to recommend this contractor to anybody in need of any type of home repair. You are even welcome to speak with me about it in person should you wish any more details.
A big thumbs up for Mike Himelfarb at M2R Enterprises!!
Cordially,
Nancy in Richmond Hill
