We contacted Featherstone to step in and help us renovate a lovely apartment we had purchased for a senior family member who desperately needed a place to call their own.

We were very impressed by the excellent craftsmanship, attention to detail and the more than attentive and courteous service. They demo-ed, renovated and left the place spotless. Featherstone and its crew definitely go above and beyond.

Highly recommended. We certainly know who we will contact for our next project.

Two thumbs up to Howard VanEsch and sons of Featherstone for a job well done in the renovation of our bedroom and ensuite. Howard’s fine craftsmanship and attention to detail is what sets him apart. We are fond of saying “if you want the job done right the first time, these are the people to call. You will not be disappointed “.

We recently had our bathroom renovated by Van Esch Enterprises. The bathroom looks great. Excellent workmanship. The whole experience was stressfree. They were very organized and courteous. The work was completed in a timely manner without delays. There were no surprises and it came in for the cost quoted. Would definitely recommend them.
