We’ve done a few jobs with Sandy Hill Construction at this point (interior and exterior) and keep coming back to them. High quality construction and materials, efficient work crews, and the owner Nathan cares a lot about the work he does.

Critical: Professionalism
This company took my money & then ghosted me. Extremely unprofessional. Would not recommend to my worst enemy.

Can't say enough great things about Nathan and the entire crew at Sandy Hill Construction. They were professional, knowledgeable and quick! We hired them to build a 220 sq ft addition to our 1960's bungalow. The new construction blends perfectly with the old and it looks as though it has always been there. We would totally recommend these guys, especially if you are looking for a no-nonsense experience!

I can't comment on the quality of their work, but they did a job up the street from my house. The guys consistently parked anywhere and everywhere that wasn't a legal parking space even when there was legal parking available, and one of the senior people on site yelled at and berated my neighbor when he asked them to be more courteous to the neighbors and at least try to avoid parking in no parking zones.

To be fair I can't rate them on the their work because I didn't get a chance to work with them since their representative did not bother to take the time to hear about the scope of work I wanted to do.. he decided after 2 minutes into our meeting that I'm wasting his time

A happy customer since 2005 and my basement was finished and so many times after that. I am certainly enjoying my house and many friends do too.

We first used Sandy Hill construction for a basement renovation. John was very helpful during the whole project. His employees were hard working and professional. We were so pleased that we used Sandy Hill again for our kitchen renovation. We highly recommend John and his crew.

John and his professionals at Sandy Hill Construction have done a number of renovation projects on our house over the past two years. These have included creating a new tiled main floor entrance, installing new lighting in the living room, targeted stone foundation repairs, external brickwork (mostly repointing but also including rebuilding the chimney) and structural work in the basement. As the house dates back to ca. 1895, all of these required flexibility, careful craftsmanship and imagination to complete. In all instances Sandy Hill Construction came through with flying colours. All jobs were
