As. professional organizer, I called on Ed Powell Contracting a contractor to replace a pair of custom swing doors with double bypass doors in a bedroom. He was extremely responsive, Irish friendly and very knowledgeable. Really happy with the final results as it saved much needed space in the soon to be baby room! Really happy and would call on him and his team in a heartbeat.

We hired Ed and his team to completely renovate our 1960s bungalow in 2017 following a glowing recommendation from a friend in the construction business. We loved working with the team so much, we recommended their services to my brother and sister-in-law, who are currently working with them on their house. We were on a tight budget, and the team was able to give us honest advice on where we should save and where we shouldn't. It has been about 5 years since the renovation and there have been no issues whatsoever. We once had a question regarding how something operated, and Ed came by on a Sunday (with his family waiting in the car!) to ensure that we understood and that everything was working fine. Ed has so much pride in his work and is an honest and fair person to work with. We look forward to working with him again in the future!

Absolutely happy with the job Ed and his team did on our bathroom. Our master bathroom had to be completely renovated and we are very pleased with the result. Honest, great communication and polite crew! We highly recommend them!

I've had the pleasure with working with Ed and his team. He is willing to give his honest and expert opinions and let's the client decide based on multiple options. He makes sure to translate the design to the finished product, on schedule and within budget. He is a perfectionist and looks to have everything finished they way it is expected to be. His project managers are courteous, professional, and provide regular updates. Clients will always know when subcontractors are coming, when power or water is not available, and progress reports on the project. I look forward to working more with him in the future.

Powell contracting helped design and build an 8 bedroom, 4 bathroom staff housing building. The building is located in a remote location where materials can take days, sometimes weeks to arrive. Ed, Anthony, Tommy, Pedro, Joe and Josh put in 110% to make sure the project was complete on time and to a high standard. They were professional, on time, hard working and clearly enjoyed their work and took pride in making sure things were done right. The project start date was delayed due to weather, and they had no problem adjusting their dates and even working longer days to make sure things were completed on time. Ed has a “always a way” attitude and provides a healthy watchful eye over the project to ensure things are completed as needed. Thanks Ed and the team. We’re looking forward to working on another project in the future.

As a carpenter apprentice, Powell Contracting was a great company to work for. The company had a huge variety of jobs. I got to work with the journeymen who were not only experienced at what they do, but also patient when it comes to teaching apprentices. The employer did not treat apprentices as general labourers. The quality of work was superb. The employees took pride of their craftsmanship. Overall, Powell Contracting is a great choice for apprentices seeking to build on their careers. It also has friendly coworkers, stable hours and decent wage.
