McKeen Construction - Fenwick, Ontario

Our main floor renovation of our older bungalow is complete.

Demo included removing 3 types of floor covering , trim , kitchen , gutting main bathroom, removal of old gas fireplace facade and hearth, removal of posts , handrail , and spindles from open stairwell to allow new materials for replacement.

We hired McKeen Construction to bring our ideas/design to fruition and we are delighted with the results.

The company was hired based on recommendations, reviews and wanting to support a local company.

It was a 4 month process and so worth the results.
We were initially given a time frame of 3-4 months and from our previous experiences with renovations at our other home , the 4 months were realistic.

Main considerations for us was being within our budget , and communication with whomever we hired.
Ryan and his team were always available for our questions , discussions and feedback.
We appreciated their ideas and were not adverse to doing a pivot to embrace their suggestions eg. thicker subfloor etc., and were more than pleased with those results .
Ryan or Sam was always here when sub trades present.
Our new hardwood , tile , kitchen island , new over range vent to outside, counters , kitchen backsplash, drywalling an old entry from living/dining , the new gas fireplace facade , new bathroom with soapstone floor/bench and grab bars ( yes , we our at an age we need ) , painting , etc. has met our expectations and love it all.

Thank you Ryan McKeen and your incredible team for all you did.

My husband and I recently hired McKeen Construction to renovate our kitchen, and we are so thankful that we found this wonderful company. We were so impressed from the moment we met with Ian to talk about what we had in mind for our space all the way up to when final touch-ups were completed.

During the renovation, Dylan was wonderful. He kept us informed about everything we needed to know, answered any questions we had promptly and walked us through the whole process. He put our minds at ease when a couple minor issues came up along the way. Thanks to Dylan and the rest of the team at McKeen, a potentially stressful renovation turned out to be a pleasant experience for our family.

Everyone coming into our home during the renovation was polite and respectful. We are so impressed with the quality of work that was done, and at the outstanding attention to detail and great communication we experienced. We love our new kitchen, and we would be happy to hire McKeen Construction again for any future renovations in our home. We would absolutely recommend this company to others as well!

While there certainly have been small projects that we have tackled and DIY, when it came to completing a major renovation project, we thankfully decided to leave that up to professionals.

We ended up selecting McKeen Construction.
From our initial meeting to the very end of our project, we couldn’t say enough great things about McKeen Construction.

We decided on doing pretty much a full gut job and re-construction of our main floor. This included opening up walls, planning and bringing a vision to life that we had only in our minds. Ryan was fantastic in assisting with not only the planning of bringing this to life but also making his own design recommendations that helped make our vision even better.

Communication is absolutely vital in a project of this magnitude and Ryan or anyone on the McKeen Team was always available and willing to discuss and answer questions throughout the process. The Team was extremely professional and attention to detail absolutely amazing.

I have heard a lot of horror stories on major renovations and that has been happening even more so during COVID. Fortunately McKeen stayed true on original quotes and pretty much got the entire project completed on the promised time frame. We even occasionally requested some last minute add ons, tweaks or even additional work and everything was always completed with no hassle and as agreed. We were well aware that COVID was providing a lot of challenges for the industry, from shortages of trades, issues getting materials and run away costs. Somehow Ryan managed all this without missing a beat!

Our home is now practically a new house and for the fraction of the cost of changing homes.
The project brought our vision to life and has turned our first home into our dream home.
Ryan and the McKeen Team were amazing professionals, attentive, honest and trustworthy.
They always followed through on their commitments and we would recommend them over and over again.

IF we ever need to take on another project, McKeen Construction will be the first call we make.

We recently had the pleasure of working with McKeen Construction on a basement renovation and bathroom remodel project, and we are absolutely thrilled with the results. From start to finish, the team at McKeen Construction was professional, courteous, and attentive to detail. They took the time to listen to our needs and ideas, and then worked diligently to turn them into a reality. Throughout the project, they provided clear and timely communication, and always kept us informed of their progress. The end result is a stunning, functional, and comfortable living space that we are proud to call our own. We would highly recommend McKeen Construction to anyone in need of a talented, reliable, and trustworthy contractor. Thank you, McKeen Construction!

We contracted McKeen Construction to upgrade a full bathroom, 2 piece bath and to make improvements to our finished basement including replacement of drop ceilings with drywall, floor tiling and lighting upgrades.

Our experience began with the quoting stage. We met Ian who was meticulous collecting the details that he would need to provide a quote. We received a detailed quote including drawings and room by room breakdown of the proposed work. McKeen were not the lowest quote but inspired confidence that the quote provided was accurate. Ian inspired confidence in the way he paid close attention to detail and answered our questions.

The next stage was orchestrated by Dylan, he met with us and walked through the entire project step by step. We were provided with a graphical calendar outlining the planned stages of work. Dylan was extremely responsive to our questions and easy to reach at all times during the project. He handled some minor issues quickly and satisfactorily. The trades people were very professional and polite.

The project came in on time and budget. Thank you McKeen for busting all of the scare stories we hear about contractors. You are a bright star in your industry.

Just finished adding two dormers to our home with McKeen. Major renovations and ripping our roof off with a newborn in the house is not the easiest but Dylan and the McKeen team made the process as smooth as possible. Dylan was always extremely responsive, personable, and genuinely cared about our project and our happiness with the work being completed. Everything turned out great and our project finished up 2 weeks ahead of schedule and on budget, which has been a huge relief! Huge thanks Dylan and everyone who worked on our house; hopefully the kids won’t destroy it too quickly!

I am so impressed with McKeen Construction. Dylan who is the site manager was absolutely professional and represented this company to the highest level. I also found Dylan offer suggestions that only made my kitchen and laundry better. He is the person I would want to work with again. The renovations have been timely and beyond my expectations. All members of any part of the crew to worked here were sure to do the best work possible. My kitchen is so fantastic it is a dream come true. I cannot wait to show it off and my laundry room is so beautiful I cannot wait to use it!

I would highly recommend McKeen Construction to anyone and everyone. If you want the best this is the place. I am planning some other renovations in the house and this is my #1 choice. I look forward to working with them again.

We recently completed the renovation of our main bathroom, laundry room and office.
We were so impressed with the professionalism of the team from the initial overview with Ian and Ryan to the construction team lead by Randy. Clearly, Mckeen makes it a priority to keep the job on track while ensuring quality control, required regulations and always clear lines of communication with us.
We are confident in recommending them to anyone considering a renovation project.
