## In customers' own words
_Verbatim quotes from this contractor's public reviews, each attributed to its source:_
> "Quick, professional with great communication skills describing what will be done."
> Source: Peter Kay (5.0, via HomeStars)

> "We were very pleased with the job done. We had to repair our fence. John made an estimate and completed everything in a timely manner, despite the fact that it was over 30 °C outside that day. The site was cleaned up. The communication was clear and professional. I highly recommend Cavalier Construction and John."
> Source: Liza (5.0, via HomeStars)

> "I had to replace all the cast iron wastelines in my home and was left with a large hole in my wall where the vent pipe was replaced. Our home has plaster walls so I was happy to find out that John was familiar with plaster repairs. He did a fantastic job on the repair, looks like new! He was friendly, prompt and answered all my questions. Everything was tidied up. His rates were very reasonable. I highly recommend him and would use him again."

## Before you hire a basement conversion specialist
_What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_
- Trade licensing in Canada is set by each province or territory. Electrical, gas and plumbing are licensed trades almost everywhere (for example ESA for electrical and TSSA for gas in Ontario), so check your provincial regulator that the contractor is certified for the work before you hire.
- A construction lien is a real risk: in every province an unpaid subcontractor or supplier can register a lien against your home even if you already paid the main contractor. Hold back the statutory amount (commonly around 10%) and get signed lien waivers as you pay.
- Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
- Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work, and that they are current.
- Get a written, itemized quote with scope, assumptions and a staged payment schedule.
