| Project Title: | Finish my basement and build a fence in my backyard |
| Job Number: | HCA26564 |
| Type: | Residential |
| Category: | Exteriors |
| Subcategory: | Fence Install & Repair |
| Location: | Halifax, Nova Scotia |
| Main concern: | Price |
| Budget: | test $5,000 - $20,000 |
| Project will be started in: | test Timing is flexible |
| Requires financing: | No |
| Project Description: Our house is one year old as of next month. The basement is approximately 900 square feet and currently unfinished. Our back yard is approximately 30x40 with no fence. In the basement, we would like a rec room, bedroom, bathroom and storage room, which would complete the unfinished area. In our back yard, we would like a fence around our property line enclosing the lawn and our deck. We're hoping to pay average price for the material used to finish the basement as well as build the fence. (We dont require top of the line/expensive materials). What is very important, is that a warranty comes along with the work that is done. The other catch, is that we wouldn't be interested in the work starting until late winter/early spring 2011, so whatever quotes I am given, would have to be good for at least 8 months. |

" Your site has by far the best layout, and is the best source
of leads that we have. Since we listed with Handy Canadian
(December 2005), we've signed contracts on over $400,000 worth
of work - that's a pretty good return on our advertising dollars,
and is unsurpassed by any other advertising that we've done
so far. In fact, as we've built such a network of referrals
from the business we've received via your site, we no longer
advertise anywhere else! "
- Bryan, Baeumler Quality Construction and Renovations Inc. " As a Premium member I received my
first lead notification e-mail for a bathroom renovation.
I immediately decided to get in touch with the prospect. To
my surprise he was eager to meet with me and an appointment
was made for myself and my partner to visit his home and quote
on the job. I was pleasantly surprised to find the seriousness
and quality of this prospect was top-notch! Shortly after
visiting the lead from HandyCanadian .... WE WERE AWARDED
THE JOB! We were astonished at how easy it was...this first
job has already paid for the membership! "
- Michael Klisouris, Second To None Renovations " I must commend you on a very good
service. I have found this service to be very good, with exceptional
leads for potential work. "
- Don, M2C1 DESIGN " I believe that the internet is the
way of the future and I believe that handy Canadian is ahead
of their time. Businesses are fighting to win customers to
win a 10-100 sale. But here for less then 1 dollar a day can
you receive hot leads to build your business. I love this
service!!! "
- Leslie H., Toronto Home Renovation " We've had the pleasure of meeting
great clients for whom we've created quality designer spaces
through Handy Canadian. Receiving relevant leads consistently
allows us to be selective on which projects we bid on and
ensures that our firm continues to grow. Compared to traditional
means of advertising, Handy Canadian is a sure and economical
way to succeed."
- Fardid Biglar BiglarKinyan Design Partnership Inc. " I think HandyCanadian .com is a useful
resource to many and a great idea!! "
