PORTFOLIO

TESTIMONIALS

“To find a contractor that you can trust, and who communicates well is so refreshing. Not only is Patrick supported by a great team of carpenters, tilers, tapers, etc., but he also has a stable of superb sub contractors to do the plumbing, electrical and HVAC work. Patrick is extremely knowledgeable and is great at solving on site issues. Patrick’s office manager, Kevin was also always available, and his weekly updates made us feel at ease regarding the progress of the job. You can count on Faroe Woodworks to get your project done to a high standard, with every detail looked after.”

“We recently purchased a 100+ year old home in Bloorcourt with a main floor that needed a lot of love. The middle of the house was sinking due to improper previous renovations, a load bearing wall needed to be removed and the floors and kitchen were in need of some serious updating. From bid to completion, Patrick and the Faroe team were amazing. Super collaborative, they helped us make the right decisions for our home from day 1. Of course, there were inevitable surprises along the way (surprise knob and tube, a mystery plumbing issue, improper support beams), but Patrick and the team quickly found solutions for all of them, keeping the project moving forward, resulting in something better than we could have ever imagined! We feel lucky to have been connected with Faroe, and will definitely be using them again.”

"We had a very good experience hiring Faroe Woodworks to renovate our basement. Patrick worked to make sure the project was organized and the various steps were coordinated. He supervised the work of the plumbing, insulation and window subcontractors to make sure they matched our specifications.  In the end, this allowed us to have an attractive finished basement that also fit our budget. We wouldn't hesitate to hire Faroe Woodworks again."

"Couldn’t recommend hiring the Faroe team enough—they were clear, quick to respond to questions, flexible, and more than fair on their pricing. Their work was excellent and they were a pleasure to deal with. Great guys!"

"Could not be happier with the service provided. Excellent client service. Worked around our schedule. Very reliable staff - polite, great workmanship, clean. More than happy to recommend their services to others. Have great work links with other trades and managed those relationships. One shop, excellent service."

"We couldn’t be happier with the custom breakfast nook bench Pat built and installed for us in our kitchen. Pat immediately understood our needs from a design and layout standpoint and was able to complete our project on schedule and under budget. He was incredibly easy to work with, knew what questions to ask, and was respectful of our home during the installation. In fact, he was able to complete most of our project at his shop with minimal disruption to us, which we really appreciated. The install was clean and quick, and we now have a beautiful custom bench that we enjoy regularly. We definitely recommend Pat and look forward to working with him again."

"I wanted a sturdy enclosure for my piston pump at the cottage by the lake. I had measurements and a rough idea of what I wanted. Pat completed the job quickly, efficiently and according to my specs. The shed is well built, solid and withstands the strong winds and winters in the Bruce. My wife thinks it is also very pretty and reminds her of a mini cottage. We would definitely contact Pat for future projects."
