Description of Work: Bathroom renovation. Walter ripped out all of our old tile on wall and floor, took out old fixtures, toilet, vanity and replaced tile on walls and floor. He texturized our ceiling, repainted it. Painted walls, replaced all fixtures, vanity, toilet. Walter works hard. Punctual and cleans up every night. I like that he breaks his jobs down. I plan to definitely use him again for future jobs. This was his third job at our house.

I really enjoyed having Walter perform this work. He did an excellent job and he worked really quickly to help me meet an aggressive schedule for this project. During the job, I talked to him quite a bit and got some ideas for additional projects around here. He's a true craftsman. I even paid him a bonus because I was so pleased with his work.
Description of Work: Tiled white subway tile in a bath alcove, including a soap dish, a built-in shelf for shampoo, and tile trim around a window. The job also included tiling a hex cut marble floor apron 6 ft by 5 ft.
, Walter also arrives early betwen 8:15 and 8:30 depending on when his son needs to get to school. He works all day and he may take a short lunch of a sandwich but he's back to work quickly. He generally cleans up for the door around 4:30 and is gone by 5:00 or 5:30. He works hards. Keeps to himself. Is very pleasent to talk to and he is frinedly by not overly so. I enjoy learning this from him. Always cleans up after his work. I am impressed by his work ethic and about his capabilities and his willingness to try things.

I called Walter about some cabinet refacing/painting and he arrived that same day to give an estimate. He then sent me a proposal that night which was very reasonable. He told us exactly what he would do and why. He arrived promptly at 8:00 on three different days. He was very dilligent and professional, the entire time. I believe his specialty is tiling - kitchen and bathroom restoration. But, he seems to be skilled in a lot of different areas. I would not hesitate to call him for a variety of interior work. It was a sincere pleasure hiring Giesbrecht Tiling and Painting.
Description of Work: Painted kitchen cabinetry and aligned/rehung doors.

Walter was the first contractor we called based upon a recommendation of a co-worker for whom Walter had remodeled two bathrooms from studs to finish. He met with us, discussed the job, made recommendations, and submitted an estimate within two days. We were comfortable with him after meeting him, the bid seems reasonable in light of the work, and we respected our co-workers opinions about his work. One of us actually saw the work he did at another job. He was specific about each part of the job and detailing whether materials were included or whether we were purchasing items. This made the job easier to visualize in terms of what we were paying for. He required one third payment after he did one third of the work and so on. He was always prompt, arriving to work at around 8:30 and finishing up around 5-6 depending on a natural stopping point. He had to work around our electrician and the installation of our counter top but was very accommodating. He communicated well and helped me through some decisions. We bought the tile ourselves and had problems with getting some of the tile after Christmas. It actually took almost a month before we received the final shipment of our tile. He worked around that. He was very professional, cleaned up after everyday. He's very good at everything he did. The installation of the tile was perfect. We hope to have Walter remodel our bathrooms this summer.
Description of Work: Walter refinished our 18 year old oak kitchen cabinets including sanding, staining and new lacquer. He also installed shelves above our upper cabinets, replaced a shelf under our sink, and encased a soffit in wood trim, stained and lacquered all new wood to match our current cabinetry. He also replaced old hinges and installed new hardware on the cabinets. He removed our old counter top. He removed and installed a new tile backsplash and installed our new faucet and OTR microwave. We hired separately an electrician to install under the cabinet lights. We also hired separately the installation of a new counter top.
