Black Bear Electrical and Construction Inc.

I had a positive experience with Mark, in relation to some semi-specialized electrical work. I was pleased with his consistent and steady communication and proactive approach to overcoming the challenges that emerged. He stuck with it, saw the work through to a successful conclusion, and followed up just as promised. I'd recommend him to anyone. Thank you.

John completed the renovation of our main bath last fall and it turned out beautiful, as it has for other renovations he has done for us. As others have mentioned he is very professional and the final product is always the highest quality and done on time and on budget.

I asked Mark to upgrade my panel and add a subpanel in the garage. He went above and beyond by using metal conduit and quality components and a future-proof design. He was always on time, organized, and very fair with his pricing - worth every penny! He even went as far as to use a laser level to make sure the conduits were perfectly horizontal and all the new sockets were aligned. I also appreciate him putting up with my constant design changes. Great service, great work, great prices.

John and Mark were amazing to work with. John is a true craftsmen stopping at multiple steps of the way to ensure your design is implemented the way you want. The quality of work is second to none. John always ensures the work site is very clean at the end of the day and tries to be as un intrusive as possible. If John has a sub complete a portion of the job he manages the whole process and has vetted the work of each sub he uses. The quality of the subs is equal to Johns professional standards. We loved working with BlackBear so much that after they finished a complete overhaul of the kitchen we had them back to complete the o suite bathroom. Thanks so much John and I would recommend BlackBear to anyone who wants to work a construction company that is friendly, professional, and delivers a beautiful finished product.

Outstanding work and professionalism. This fall we decided to get our ensuite bathroom renovated. The work involved pretty much gutting it: removing the tiny shower, replacing that space with shelving, and removing a jacuzzi tub and replacing that space with a bigger shower, and of course all the flooring/tiling/painting/lighting that goes with it. We had gotten one quote from a representative of another contracting company, who we had seen around the neighbourhood, who had come in and flippantly estimated a very high cost for the work. They lost us immediately. We had gone to Black Bear previously to have some electrical work done in our kitchen by Mark, John's son, so they were our next estimate. John came over a couple of times to sit down and talk to us about the many options we could have with the work we wanted done. I should also point out how impressed I was with the initial quote format. John had laid out all the costs and details in a nice layout, and from there we were able to go through it and figure out how we wanted to go from there. John was very patient with us :) Once the work started, it was obvious that we were in good hands. For one thing, he had sealed off the area so the demo debris and dust wouldn't get into the bedroom. At the end of each day, he would totally clean up. From the stairs, hallway and bedroom, you wouldn't know reno work was being done. John also discovered a fault from the original builder of our home: the ceiling of the bathroom had been peeling paint for a few years. We had attributed that to the fact that there wasn't a fan in the bathroom, but while John was in the attic to install the pot lights and fan he discovered that the builders had initially cut an attic entrance in the bathroom ceiling by mistake and sealed it again. But they did not replace the insulation! So John made sure it was well insulated. If he hadn't caught that, we would have had the same problem again and again. We now have an amazing bathroom at a very fair cost. John is extremely meticulous and obviously takes pride in his work. I know he spent a lot of time making sure the hexagon tiling on the shower floor looked just right (I would have lost my mind), and the entire bathroom is immaculate. I can't imagine a better experience with a contractor. John's a very nice guy who went over and above to be sure we were satisfied. From coming back to adjust the shower temperature after installation to spending over two hours on a Saturday morning with my wife at a quartz shop to help resolve a mixup on their part, many days we'd be talking about how glad we were that we chose John for the job. The next time we need any sort of reno job done, there is no question: Black Bear will be our go-to. Thanks again, John and Mark. We are so happy with our new ensuite!
