“Riverside Construction built an addition to our 85 year old house to accommodate a new kitchen, mud room and extended bedroom. The project also involved a renovated bathroom, new roof, windows, doors, hardwood flooring, deck, fence etc. They came highly recommended from our friends and did not disappoint! Greg was very helpful (and patient with us!) as we worked our way through the planning phase – we were concerned with maintaining the character of the house while still enjoying the benefits of a new open style kitchen- Riverside made it happen. We lived onsite through much of the renovation and the crew was professional, skilled, accommodating and friendly. The workmanship and project management was excellent, they came when they said they would and did not leave until they were finished. We highly recommend Riverside Construction. Kudos to Greg, Simon and the crew.”

” Ellen and I were looking to add a family room, extend the kitchen and add a garage and large concrete patio area to our yard for entertaining. A sun porch had to be demolished along with the back wall of the house and an interior wall. Our house is over 100 years old and we were unsure whether a company as young as Riverside could handle the job, boy were we wrong. Greg and Simon did an excellent job paying attention to all the small details to make sure that the job was done correctly. They were on schedule and price, we even had to have the kitchen floor and joists replaced and they were still on time. They were on the jobsite everyday and the site was always clean when they left for the day. As we sit on our back patio enjoying the summer we can’t help but thank Riverside for the magnificent job that they did! We highly recommend them for and size job you may need done. Do not be fooled by Greg’s age as his knowledge of all building codes and his workmanship is spot on.”

“Greg and the team have been absolutely fantastic from start to finish of our complete remodel and sizeable addition. Greg is up front with costs and expected timelines, quality of workmanship and getting things done right has been very much appreciated. Greg is very well connected and was able to get us in to touch with the right people for the plan and permit process, and all the details along the way. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Greg and Riverside Construction to anyone looking for the right people for a renovation/build project. Thanks Greg!”

“I knew I loved my home and would never move. I originally approached Riverside Construction to take my home from an old farmhouse with choppy additions, to a cohesive open space. After working with Greg through several layout options, I felt very comfortable and was confident that Riverside Construction was the right fit. The professional and skilled team of Riverside Construction did an outstanding job. The team had tremendous work ethic and worked with a deep respect for me as a homeowner throughout the renovation. The transformation of my home has greatly exceeded my expectations. ”

” Riverside construction did a complete “gut job” and renovation of our laundry room. We live in a condo, so maximizing storage in the room was important. The results exceeded our expectations. Not only is the room organized and efficient, it’s beautiful! Greg Hassall was a pleasure to work with. He is organized and a good communicator. He went above and beyond when he picked up floor tile in Toronto to keep our project on schedule. The tradespeople that Greg used on out job were skilled professionals. The quality of workmanship is reflected in the results. We would definitely hire Riverside Construction again.

Every great company has to start somewhere, with Riverside Construction it starts with owner Greg Hassall. We were very impressed with his approach throughout the job. He listened to our needs and advised accordingly. We were provided with comprehensive quote, plans and timelines before a contract was signed. The work was well coordinated, timelines were met and quality of work was superb! Every effort was made to minimize disruption to our lives (including the amount of dust). Each day ended with cleanup time. We could not be happier with the results and in fact we are having them back to do more!

We purchased an older house in Hunt Club which needed to be completely renovated. We started working with Riverside Construction when we needed some structural work done to open up the main floor. We were so pleased with the quality of work and professionalism of their team that we decided to use them for the entire project. They ended up finishing the entire main floor including our kitchen, flooring, and trim as well as completely renovating our ensuite bathroom.

“Riverside Construction was a huge help as we were starting our business. We had obtained a lease for a downtown property that was in need of a lot of work. We knew our business could thrive in this location but needed some help to make our vision become a reality. Riverside Construction was able to guide us through the planning and construction processes and deliver on an amazing space where our business could be successful. Timelines were always met with the highest quality of work and all team members were a pleasure to work with. The first location turned out so well, we had them back for the construction of our second location on Wonderland Rd.”

We hired Riverside Construction to renovate our outdated kitchen and we are so happy with the finished results. Greg had wonderful ideas, he listened to, and met all our expectations. Actually, he went above and beyond. We never came home to a mess, most times we never even knew he had been in the house! Our kitchen is even better than we imagined…Overall, we had a wonderful experience, and we would absolutely hire them again.

Riverside Construction has done a phenomenal job for us. Our condominium basement has been transformed beyond our expectations. Greg Hassall is a professional hands-on, conscientious practitioner. All the supportive trade personnel; electrician, plumber, tile man, painter (who was fantastic), carpet and home cleaner were outstanding in their commitment to the job. Mr. Hassall was always considerate to our living in the home while the work was being done. He has an excellent work ethic and cleans up beautifully after each day’s work. I would highly recommend Riverside Construction. No job is too big or too small, Greg is always on schedule. The results of his work are most impressive. We just love our basement.

“I have found Riverside Construction to be very skilled and conscientious workers who set a deadline and stick to it. The quality of their workmanship is above reproach. From the owner to the employees to the tradesmen, everybody involved was professional and courteous. Riverside Construction did some work for me (a complete bathroom renovation) and then I had them back to do a lot more at a later date (replacing all doors, new fencing and complete renovation of a basement laundry room). Everybody involved was very trustworthy, reliable and honest. They were given a key to my home and I was never once concerned. Greg was referred to me and I have since referred Riverside Construction on to several of my friends. I highly recommend Riverside Construction to anyone for any type of construction and renovation work.”

“We moved into a home that needed a complete bathroom renovation. As this was the only full bathroom in the house, we needed the work done promptly. Greg and his team gutted the entire room and within a week, delivered. Our bathroom was their top priority from start to finish. Riverside Construction takes pride in their work and they care about your home and your satisfaction. Greg is responsive, trustworthy, dependable and meticulous in his work. His skilled team gave us a beautifully updated bathroom that we are confident was finished properly. We were so impressed with Riverside Construction, we called them back when it was time for our kitchen renovation. We recommend Riverside Construction any chance we get.”

“Riverside construction installed a new bathroom and closet for me when I first moved into my Century old downtown London home. I had very specific needs and was definitely nervous how the job was going to turn out. Riverside Construction exceeded my expectations on every level. Riverside Construction workers showed up on time every day, were professional and courteous, and always left the job site clean and tidy. Their overall attention to detail and unparalleled workmanship resulted in an end product that blew me away. I am in real estate and deal with trades people on a daily basis. I have never had a better experience and strongly encourage anyone looking at doing a home renovation to give Riverside Construction a call.”
