Job Doctor General Contracting Ltd

We had a few other companies come to give us an assessment of the renovation to our 185 + year old home and after a few "Wow, I have never seen this before!", we quickly hired Job Doctor. Daniel Post assured us that he was up to the challenge and tight deadline and to his word, he was. Dan and his crew worked their magic on a complete gut and turned our home into a beautiful mix of historic and contemporary design.

Our house is over 100 years old that had lots of issues needing to be addressed. We finally decided to do a major transformation in 2015. We were fortunate to have Job Doctor doing the job for us. Dan was able to resolve all of the issues for us. We've had many contractors doing various jobs for us over the years but Dan is by far the best of them all! Dan is capable, responsible and trustworthy!

I hired Dan Post and his team at Job Doctor to update and renovate both sides of a 1950 Westboro duplex that had NEVER been updated. I was very satisfied from beginning to end. Danny took the time to walk through every aspect of the project up front so I knew what to expect, and provided detailed and accurate estimates. His crews were skilled, professional, and courteous and did their best to keep the job site clean. Job Doctor is an honest and reliable company, and they do excellent work! I would recommend them to anyone.

Hired to renovate side entrance with breezeway into a new entrance to gargage and large closet. House was build in 1933 so it had plaster walls and a few surprises. Danny and his team of Mark,Steve, Gary and Brian did a fantastic job. They are polite, kind, courteous and strive to make you happy. Thanks for a great job. Very pleased.

We've had several projects done by Job Doctor over the years, including converting our 1 1/2 story home to a full 2 story, creating an open concept first floor, extensive repairs to a detached garage and more recently, landscaping and new front porch. We keep coming back due to the quality work, great communication and excellent prices. We've always been happy with Job Doctor.

Honest, reliable, knowledgeable, efficient - these are some of the words to describe the Job Doctor and their employees. Job Doctor worked with me in the design of a sunroom and delivered an aesthetically beautiful addition that integrated well with the existing house. They worked during very cold weather diligently and professionally. Very satisfied with all aspects of the relationship.

Our quest for a contractor started in July 2015. We wanted to remodel our basement from a 1970 vintage dungeon to a modern day brightly lit, warm, comfortable recreation room and office. We interviewed a number of Ottawa-area contractors ranging in size from a one man operation to a large organization. By late November we had decided that none of them met our criteria. We sourced information from the Better Business Bureau, talked to previous clients, and met with Mr. Danny Post, Job Doctor. Little did we know at the time in early December that the title “Job Doctor” would be synonymous with our basement renovation. We explained to Mr. Post what we wanted, and early in December Danny had returned a detailed cost estimate for the work to be undertaken. After some discussion with a revised work expectation, the final work plan was prepared and approved. Work started on the day of Ottawa’s largest snow storm of the year (over 50 cms). Twenty six days later, we had a new living space complete with a rejuvenated recreation room, bathroom, laundry room, and home office. However, during construction a number of issues were discovered as a result of the demolition. A hole as big as a heat vent was found in the main floor wall, causing condensation and black mould abundant in the area where the home office was to be located. Job Doctor’s craftsmen were not fazed; the cause was quickly determined in addition to what was needed to resolve these issues. While doing the corrective work, dry rot was also discovered on several load bearing exterior walls. As the title suggests Job Doctor knew what to do and how to do it, and quickly addressed these problems. We found the Job Doctor Crew worked hard and were very respectful. Their motto is the “customer is always right” and they were eager to address ideas that developed during each phase of the activity. Issues that were major in our minds were taken on and resolved quickly without major consequences in terms of budget or timelines. We found that the office staff seemed to know when to call, check on things, and make sure outstanding items were addressed. In the end our work budget was extended due to the issues identified. However, we also had the confidence in Job Doctor to complete the needed repairs to the exterior walls. No challenges were beyond the skill set of Job Doctor and the remedies were executed with a surgeon’s precision. When delivery items with suppliers were less than favourable, Job Doctor was there supporting us until the outstanding items were resolved to our satisfaction. We recommend their services and as other clients have stated, we will use their skill set again.

We hired Dan Post and the team at Job Doctor for various renovations around our house. We had 3 bedrooms re-done and painted, a sliding patio door put in place of a window, a window removed and changed over to a door. some electrical and plumbing work, and a HUGE deck built. The team at Job Doctor was very professional, and the entire crew was personable and informative. All of the renovations where done with and excellent degree of detail and care, and it shows in the final product. Dan was always happy to answer questions, and stopped by frequently to check on the job progress. I would not hesitate to recommend Dan Post and Job Doctor. We were, and still are, extremely pleased with both the outcome of the renovations and the value we obtained for our money.
