Ajax is where much of our Durham work is. The homes range from 1960s bungalows near the lake to the big two-storeys built north of the 401 in the 1990s and 2000s, and the renovation needs follow the age of the house. Older Ajax: kitchens and bathrooms rebuilt from the studs. Newer Ajax: builder-grade finishes swapped for something better, and a basement finished for the kids or the in-laws.
We are about twenty minutes from Ajax on a normal day, close enough that once a project starts the crew is there every morning.

5 out of 5 stars
They checked with me before doing anything, which is great as not all contractors do that. The final result is a faboulous and beautiful deck as my neighbours will attest to.

My bathroom problem began with the discovery of rotted sub-flooring due to a leak around the shower drain. The drain, from a previous renovation, had been improperly installed and thus, jeopardized the whole bathroom floor. I interviewed a number of reputable contractors and after meeting and discussing the problem and solution with Esan, of EH Handyman&Contractor, I chose Esan, as I felt quite confident in his understanding of the problem and as to how it should be properly addressed. Over a period of five days, Esan and Shawn, a sub-contactor closely allied with Esan, went about their work with diligence and craftsmanship, the latter, me not fully understanding until the whole project came together. Being new to actually seeing the renovation process, there where moments when I had my doubts and it is here that I would suggest, that the client having chosen their contractor, not second guess them and to let them do 'their' work. This was a lesson that I sorely needed to learn and thankfully, both Esan and Shawn were professional, polite and understanding in how they worked with me and in general, the project as a whole. The finished bathroom was far beyond my expectations and it is for this, and what I have written above, that I most heartily recommend Esan and his contracting services for your renovation needs.
