Amazing Abatement, Demo & Rebuild Experience!
What started as ceiling asbestos removal (which is already not small) snowballed really quickly into a much bigger job requiring us to move out.
Thankfully it turns out they do renovations too, which for this situation is amazing because coordinating another company to come in and re-build what was demolished would have been hard to coordinate, and would have kept us out of the house even longer. Having one team do the whole job end-to-end is a huge plus.
My wife was 7 months pregnant at the time, so there was huge risk it wouldnt be done before she was due.
Final specs of the job:
-Remove 3 full ceilings and half a wall of old asbestos-ridden plaster
-Demo a leaky master shower, and mold removal as applicable
-Demo second washroom floor tile, and mold removal as applicable
-Demo old wooden sauna, and mold removal as applicable
-Rebuild everything: master shower, second washroom floor tile, all ceilings and walls and paint
-Finish most the basement, which had been torn up from a recent flood.cement leveling, flooring, some insulation and drywall and paint
That seems like a lot of work. And they said they would do it in 2.5 weeks. And they did. They started the exact day I wanted them to start, and finished exactly 2.5 weeks later.
2.5 weeks!
The whole experience from multiple initial consults with Robert to working with Gerard and his guys Alan and Roger was a solid experience. These are salt-of-the-earth guys who just want to do a really good job.
The quality of the work (from what I can tell) is high, done fast and on time, at a cost that was perfectly fair. You almost never get all three without compromise.
Templar as a company right now is perfectly scaled. The two co-founders are hands-on enough to manage and schedule their teams work effectively, but its not so big as there is a lot of extra staff and overhead costs that are then passed on to the consumer.
It was an amazing experience overall. I took a huge risk with them and it paid off. Would definitely recommend especially for larger jobs like mine.
All the best to team Templar!
