Neighbours, mostly.

They gave us a finish date in March and handed us the keys to our own kitchen on that exact day. Nobody warned me contractors could do that. The dust wall went up before the first sledgehammer and the house stayed livable the whole time.

Tout s'est fait en français, du devis jusqu'à la dernière inspection. C'est rare, et ça change tout quand on rénove une maison de famille. On comprenait chaque décision avant de la prendre.

We opened the café eleven days after they finished. Two winters in, not one callback and the slab is still dead flat. When the health inspector added a sink in week seven they fixed it overnight rather than move our opening.

We stopped storing things down there and started living down there. Three other companies quoted the finishing; Greystone were the only ones who talked about the water first.

People stop their cars now. It looks like the house our grandmother grew up in, which is exactly what we asked for. They copied the porch brackets in their own shop.

We eat outside from May to Thanksgiving now. The wind just goes over the top of us. They found bedrock on day two, told us the same afternoon, and it never changed the price.
