Testimonials
What our clients say
"After a negative experience with a shady contractor in 2020, I searched high and low for a general contractor that I could trust when I was ready to resume installing a suite in the basement of my home. I chose Constructo for their integrity and ability to put my worries at ease. I was completely happy working with them throughout the whole project. Stephen is a clear communicator and I was informed of every step along the way, with no surprises. I have many future home renovation projects in mind, and I hope to work with Constructo on all of them."
"I have had the pleasure of introducing clients to Stephen on multiple occasions. I remain impressed on how much he truly and sincerely cares for people and his level of integrity. Clients who have chosen to have Stephen and Constructo Group do work for them are always very pleased not only with the outcome but also with the experience during the project. Personally, I just think Stephen is a wonderful fellow!"
"Call Constructo Group. They can build anything and are completely honest."
"I had Constructo Group build a 14' x 20' woodworking shop. Covid delayed the start date, but once they got going, they were great to work with. They worked with me to get the design I wanted and offered suggestions when I got a little lost. I found all their subcontractors to do quality work and they were there when they said they'd be. All in all, I couldn't be more pleased. I found Stephen Lentz to be forthright and easy to work with - he did what he said he would. In fact, I'm hoping to use Constructo Group again next year for a large remodel project."
"If we had it to do all over again, we would not change a thing."
"Mr Lentz, I was impressed by your team. Their execution appeared seamless and the quality of their carpentry skills excellent. Geoff Farrell, your team lead on the project asked the right questions ahead of time and suggested smart alternatives when existing conditions would not allow for execution as designed. Through my exchange with the clients, they are extremely happy as well. Good on you to have formed this team."
"I have referred Stephen and Constructo Group to 2 of my clients recently. He was the renovation contractor for my clients to help them get their homes ready to sell. In both cases the clients were very happy with the work that Stephen and his team did. They were professional and did exactly what the clients needed. I would recommend Constructo Group as the general contractor to my clients in the future."
"Thank you for renovating our bathroom and kitchen. We love them."
"Randy and I are ecstatic with the entire project. We absolutely love it!"
"I’ve really liked working with you guys. I will definitely recommend you to others needing your services."
"Constructo Group added a second floor to my James Bay house. Everyone who visits exclaims on how architecturally seamless and beautifully constructed the second floor is. I remember that it was done with intelligence and attention to detail; right on the timeline - and with good cheer."
"Your attention to detail is exemplary."
"From my perspective, The Constructo Group is the dream team when renovations of any sort are planned. There are reasons I am a Constructo Group repeat client—several of them, in fact! The first is that Stephen Lentz is a man of integrity, as are all the members of his crew, so there‘s no fear of shoddy workmanship, unexplained extra costs, or being left in the lurch with a job half done. Both Stephen and Geoff are resourceful men of imagination, capable of finding solutions for the problems that crop up in construction; both keep up-to-date with current construction laws and with the latest home décor trends. Planning is a strong point: required permits are obtained, inspections arranged; materials are ordered in a timely fashion so projects aren‘t delayed. The crew arrives punctually, members communicate with civility, work well together. The work site is cleaned on a daily basis. Billing is detailed. Renovations Stephen undertook in 2020, including the installation of a barrier-less shower in our ensuite bathroom, enabled my husband to remain in our home; Stephen‘s experience installing aids for the disabled was a blessing for us both. Constructo Group remains my go-to renovation team, and I recommend them with confidence."
"Stephen and his team did a fantastic job. Very easy to communicate with and very professional."
"Thank you again for the lovely work installing our rental suite. The tenant (and us) loves how it came out!"
