“CJS Carpenters completed our home renovation in 2024. We found Cameron very easy to work with and his building staff were trustworthy. This was a major project for us including the upgrade of our hot water system including radiators and a new wetback as well as the removal of a structural wall and the addition of structural work in another area to allow the wall removal. Cameron connected us with an architect and project managed the whole job from beginning to end. I would highly recommend Cameron and CJS Carpenters. They are honest and professional and all work was completed to a high standard. We are very pleased with the end result and it surpassed our expectations.”
