John and Pauline
September 2022 Paul, my wife and myself met to discuss a major addition to our acreage in Calgary. The project entailed building a Carriage House which would serve as an inter-generational home for my wife and myself.
The project consisted of removing the roof to the ceiling above our 3-car garage and rebuilding it to allow for a 1200 square foot living area for Pauline and I. In my opinion this was a very complex project , however Paul and Darrel took it all in stride. We heard good things and were impressed by their website showing their past work, however this was a major rebuild. I have been involved in construction most of my life so I am very familiar with the process and understanding the possible unforeseen issues when renovating. From the time we met in Sept to the start of construction we were given excellent advice by Paul and Darrel and on June 30, 2022, we started construction . During the process we encountered a number of unexpected problems and with the excellent knowledge of construction and materials Paul and Darrel helped us maneuver through the challenges. As mentioned earlier I am familiar with construction and I can think outside the box, but I was amazed at Paul's and Darrel's ability to think above and beyond and suggest solutions. To the point where Paul's and Darrel's suggestions and problem solving were more creative and viable than the structural engineer’s suggestions. We moved into the suite early part of 2023, and to this date we are amazed at the quality of work, the constant daily communication during the build process and following through as promised and agreed. The scope also included the installation of an elevator and despite some of the challenges Paul and Darrel pushed through and achieved a wonderful result. The worksite was always clean, organized and the trades were very conscious of my two grandkids and little dog being on the property. As this project was during Covid, some materials were difficult to get and Paul through his connections in the trades and suppliers they was able to provide alternatives and had the ability to call in favours. In summary I have and certainly would recommend Blackstone Renovations Inc for a project that you have in mind. Sincerely John and Pauline

Su-Ann from Calgary
I had Paul & his company do my renos when I first bought my home 5 years ago. I recently did an air condition installation, and used Paul's company for the electrical portion.
Not only did they do an amazing job, they caught an issue with the air conditioning, and saved what could have been a very costly error had it been left as is. Paul again sorted the issue out with the installer, saving me from having to figure it out (since I don't have a clue about that stuff). He save me money & stress, for which I am grateful! Because I had to have an upgrade to my fuse box, and a cable run from the fuse box to the balcony, that meant a cable running across the length of the living room. Paul & Daryl took the time to see what other suites around mine had done, and then designed a covering for the cable that looks great! I saw what another suite had done, and did NOT want my place looking like that. I am thankful for Paul's insight, honesty and experience that once again left me with a finished project that I am delighted with!
