Great the owner came out to the site the next day. He brought a representative from Sherwin Williams. They measured the hall and I had a quote the very next day for the paint needed to paint the entire hall.

Working with Jon was effortless from beginning to end. He was patient and understanding as we worked through my basement remodel providing honest feedback and guidance on my vision. The look and feel of my basement has benefited greatly from his suggestions. Will definitely be working with Jon on future projects!

I hired Jon and his team to renovate a very tricky basement space and also for moving my kitchen to another room. When he came out for an estimate he took the time to really understand the project and form an estimate and plan. Him and his team did an excellent job and great quality work. He is a very nice guy and I would highly recommend hiring him.

Jon and his team just completed my basement remodel which included digging out the foundation, installing a sump pump as well as all the work to convert it from a dark cave to a bright, beautiful home office and gym. Since the day they started Jon over communicated, made sure I understood every step and patiently answered my endless questions. He was onsite frequently to ensure things went well and made the process significantly less stressful. The end result surpassed all my expectations, I can’t recommend him and his team enough. Everyone from his office manager, to each crew member went above and beyond. Thank you all for a job well done!

While we have not done the project the team was helpful with getting things sorted out until we are ready to pull the trigger. Mike Walsh was particularly helpful and responsive. When we do the basement we will reach out to Dewar again to actually perform the work.

Process was smooth even with a difficult setup (old house and the desired location was right above duct work), pipe placement in the basement exceeded expectations and the finished product looks great! Very professional and courteous and worked around my schedule as-needed.

Jon Dewar and team were very helpful and easy to work with. After settling into my first home, I realized it needed several improvements including new basement windows, interior and exterior painting, new appliances and more. Dewar GC helped complete all of this work. I had concerns about the roof and Jon inspected it and even cleaned it off for free. Good workmanship. I recommend!!
