Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

About
Michael De Jong Homes has more than 20 years of experience in high-quality, custom renovations designed to suit each client’s lifestyle and budget. Michael has been designing and building homes for more than 20 years. He grew up on job sites, as his father was also a homebuilder. Here is how Michael describes his love for design and build: “I was always on construction sites as a child and absolutely loved it. About 25 years ago, after university, I joined my father in the business. I trained as a framer but have always loved design and attention to detail in trimming, cabinet-making and furniture design and construction.” Fifteen years ago, Michael opened Michael De Jong Homes Inc. with a vision to beautify Burlington and the surrounding area one home at a time. De Jong Homes strives to create for every client the best possible fit between living space and lifestyle. Feel free to reach out to us, we would love to hear from you!

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
Never pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemized quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
