Trafford General Contracting recently completed a comprehensive renovation of our kitchen and key areas of our main floor, and we are delighted with the results. From the outset, their professionalism and organizational acumen were evident. They coordinated a team of skilled subcontractors specializing in framing, drywalling, hardwood and ceramic tile flooring, electrical work, plumbing, custom cabinetry, and stone countertop installation. Each phase of the project was planned and executed in a logical, well-structured sequence, ensuring smooth progress. The subcontractors demonstrated craftsmanship and courtesy, consistently delivering high-quality work. Throughout the renovation, Richard and Rachael maintained open and responsive communication, providing regular updates and promptly addressing our questions and concerns. Their attentiveness and commitment to excellence were truly reassuring. While the project spanned several months and presented a few unforeseen challenges, Trafford General Contracting navigated each issue with poise and resourcefulness, striving for the best possible outcome. The transformation of our home is nothing short of remarkable. The newly renovated space exudes modern elegance and functionality, with enhanced flow, openness, and utility. The aesthetic refinement achieved far exceeded our initial expectations, breathing new life into our living environment. We are grateful to Trafford General Contracting for their dedication, expertise, and integrity. Their work has elevated our home in ways we could not have imagined, and we recommend them to anyone seeking a renovation partner.

Trafford renovated our ensuite bathroom which was in its original 1987 configuration and the result is transformational. It was a pleasure working with them throughout with Richard Trafford the owner, Rachel in the office, Kim and Jordan in Richard's team and subcontractors Richard brought in - everybody was positive and hardworking. Any delays were as a result of our decision making speed and sometimes lead times on the items that we chose, otherwise the schedule was maintained. We were given options a lot of the time rather than them just pressing ahead. Every project has its problems, particularly in bathrooms, in our case it was rot and mould found when the old shower stall was demolished, a collapsing bulkhead because of the way that the original builder had done the framing, and a leak in the new rough-in plumbing. The only extra costs to us over the original estimate was to address the first two issues and the plumbing leak and damage were fixed promptly at no cost to us. We would use Trafford again.

I recently hired Trafford General Contracting to build a wet bar and storage closet in the basement, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results! First, they took the time to thoroughly explain the project scope, timeline, and what to expect along the way. Communication was always clear, and any questions I had were answered promptly. When it came to the actual work, the craftsmanship was top notch. The wet bar looks amazing and the storage closet is exactly what I needed. I’m extremely satisfied with the finished product, and I would absolutely hire them again for future projects. I highly recommend Trafford General Contracting!

We used Trafford General Contracting to renovate our laundry room and could not have asked for a better experience. Richard provided invaluable advice in the planning phase which really improved the final product. When the construction did start it was a clean and efficient process - we never had any doubt things were on track. We will absolutely use Trafford again.

It was a pleasure working with the team at Trafford General Contracting. From the first meeting it was evident that they were committed to providing their clients with quality and thoughtful construction services. Our first project together involved an ensuite and main bathroom renovation, a mudroom/ laundry room renovation, an update to an existing kitchen pantry space as well as the complete redesign and construction of a living room fireplace and feature wall. Richard’s attention to detail and quality were appreciated at the construction stage after all of the effort put in to design the spaces before the construction began. The communication throughout the process helped to alleviate the stresses of renovations for the design team as well as the clients. The quality of workmanship as well as their commitment to ensuring the client is satisfied at the end of the project is what made this project such a success. We look forward to working with you again in the future.

Review of Ensuite Renovation by Trafford Construction Trafford Construction was hired to complete a full renovation of our ensuite bathroom from gutting to a finished beautiful spa-like ensuite. Richard Trafford was the contractor and project manager responsible for all aspects of executing the project plan. He hired and supervised the sub-contractors for tear-down, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, painting, and tiling. The sub-contractors he selected for this project were of the highest professional quality – skilled in their trades, committed, and considerate. At the start we were provided with a Gantt chart that we found helpful for following the sequence and timelines for the major stages of the renovation. The Trafford team was able to complete each phase according to plan. One of the services offered by Trafford Construction was the ordering and storage of materials until they are required. This included unpacking, checking the products, and then transporting them for installation at the appropriate time. This was a worthwhile option. Project communication was excellent. Richard provided updates at key times and involved us in discussions which required decisions. Trafford office staff kept us connected throughout the renovation and ensured that our questions were answered in a timely fashion by the appropriate resource. Richard worked closely and effectively with a decorator that we hired. Throughout this project our house was always left clean and tidy at the end of the workday. Attention to detail is a good indicator of the quality of the contractor. Richard made sure that all details were completed to the highest standard. Without reservation we would highly recommend Trafford Construction for home renovations.
