Avi was our general contractor for the complete rebuild of our kitchen and the demo and building of an addition which replaced our existing garage with a workshop, pantry and laundry services, a full bathroom and a potting room. A carport was also included.He was responsible for permitting and contact with the city, site safety, organizing the sub trades and materials, timelines, budgets and invoicing. Throughout Avi maintained daily contact with us. Avi also accompanied us in visits to the cabinet builders and countertop workshops and made arrangements for us to meet with fixture and accessory companies.He personally supervised every facet of the project and led the framing, window installation, concrete formwork and interior trim alongside his crew. Avi advised us on improvements or substitutions to the design as we went along and the result is a safer, updated house which still pays homage to the original 100-year-old style of the rest of our home.As very involved clients we have been extremely happy working with Avi and are pleased with the high quality of the finished product.Thank you Avi.
Avi’s team did a new fireplace installation that required precision carpentry plus several specialist services. The results were fabulous. The artistic vision was well delivered along with technical finesse. Also time management expectations were well executed. I recommend Gilbertson for small or big jobs. They take their work seriously and deliver honestly. Highly recommended.
