The project was a huge success. Started with the drawings and reviewed set-up and all of our thoughts. Agreed on a floor plan and the provider got to work. Did everything from start to finish without any hiccups. Our family couldn't be happier with the way everything turned out. It is a great livable space now with a ton of function. The provider was very flexible with his schedule and very easy to work with. I have and will continue to utilize Whitty & Sons as well as recommend to other friends and family. I love it when a plan comes together perfectly.
Patrick was responsive to questions, etc. throughout the whole process. Job was completed roughly on time, but we had some minor changes, so not sure how much that effected it.
The Bad:
We were just really disappointed in the overall quality of work. We expected the finished product to look professional and well done. But it was obvious that they were more interested in finishing quickly than they were in quality. Consistent missed cuts in wood, mismeasurements, seams that don't match up, and lots and lots of nail filler/putty to fill the gaps. Polyurethane applied to doors and trim was slathered on with drip marks everywhere. The wrong color nail filler used throughout.
Our punch list was a mile long. We just couldn't believe that you would call that 'done'. He did come back and fix a lot of things on our list, but even then it was obvious that we were just going to have to settle on that level of quality. It was just never going to look as professional as our first floor (Veridian home).
"[member names removed], Sorry to hear you're unhappy with the work and you feel you couldn't discuss this in person. We stand behind our work and will gladly come and fix any issues you may have."
After we finally decided to go ahead with the project (end of March '13), Patrick went over all of the plans with us and described (in great detail) his proposal and work schedule. We were quite pleased with his professionalism and demeanor throughout the entire process, as he kept us informed on everything that was going on with the project from start to finish. He was also open to making a few changes mid-way through that my wife and I wanted. We could not be more pleased with his punctuality to the job site, cleanliness, thorough attention to detail, and overall craftsmanship. This guy is the real deal, and if you're even remotely unsure about if you want to have him as your contractor I would give my highest recommendation as I guarantee you will not be disappointed. He finished 99.9% of the work today (5/2/13) after 5 weeks on the job (what he told us it would take), and will be coming back next week to touch up any baseboards/walls that the carpet installers mess up. This whole experience has been an absolute joy, and the final product is infinitely better than any DIY job I've ever seen.
I plan on adding a youtube clip of the finished product as soon as our carpet and furniture arrive.

Pat came over on time and really asked questions about how I plan to use the space. He was the only contractor that came over who had the end goal in mind. The plan I had laid out in my mind would have screwed up my future bathroom, the other two contractors completely missed that. On top of that, Pat was hands-down the most personable. I could tell that he didn't just want the work, he loved to do it. He was very reasonably priced as well.
There is no doubt in my mind that Whitty & Sons will be the "go to" contractor for the rest of my project.
