“Reliable and affordable service… proper clean-up was part of every job.”

“5 Starts to Maxx Contracting! We had a large rotted-out 400 sq ft deck. The beams were good, but the joists, deck boards, facing boards, some lattice all needed replacing, and we also wanted to modify the entry and stairs to allow wheelbarrow passage. Spencer lead the project and was fantastic to work with, and even raised the bar on an already nicely designed deck. He and Mike worked efficiently and consultation throughout was encouraged. We are so pleased with Deck 2.0 - pressure-treated wood, clean lines, routered edges, hidden fasteners. The new stair design is better than we had originally envisioned, the new 6'x3' gate is solidly hung and perfectly weighted. On time and on budget. Thank-you Maxx Contracting! It's been a pleasure doing business with you.”

“I know nothing about building decks,and I was on the tight budget . I had several contractors come through. The most notable thing for me was that none of them offered wood decks except James from Maxx. My budget did not allow for Duradeck so I was grateful for his suggestion "Why not wood?", and I kept my old rails. Originalyl I was told it would be at least a month but they managed to fit me in and now I'm already for spring gardening. The workers were great and when I had a small concern at the end James immediately responded and offered to make that change. As well, the stairs off my deck are excellent. James sloped them perfectly and they are so wide and comfortable to use . I was able to stay in budget and love the look of my small, long new deck. It was unsafe before and Maxx has built it to be solid,safe and pretty!”

“From start to finish, we have been so impressed with Maxx Contracting. After scouring reviews and reaching out to several other contractors for our backyard levelling and retaining wall project, we finally came across Maxx and are so glad we did. Brandon is awesome, he came out to do our initial inspection/estimate and we felt immediately at ease- he was knowledgeable, easy to talk to from the get-go and offered suggestions we hadn’t considered to maximize our space. He was easy to get ahold of, remembered all the little details, checked in with us regularly throughout the project and was always quick to respond with any questions we had. Bradyn was heading the excavating crew and is such an asset to the team. He was so personable, friendly and accommodating. He and his guys worked incredibly fast and meticulously, grinding out long days in the heat. He checked in at the end of each day to show their progress and make sure I was happy with it and never left without cleaning up the worksite. The carpentry crew worked quickly and again, meticulously, to put up a fence, gate and build a new set of stairs off our deck that we are so happy with. Our yard feels so much bigger now and exactly what we had been dreaming of until we found these guys. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone!”

“Working with Brandon at Maxx Contracting was an excellent experience that I highly recommend. He was responsive, professional, and transparent. His quotes are very competitive. Brandon and his crew showed up early and worked late to get our project done on schedule and on budget. We hired them to to construct an 8 foot engineered lock block retaining wall. This involved a huge excavation that was done cleanly and efficiently. We were struck by the painstaking care that was taken to ensure the wall was straight and level. Afterwards, we had Brandon and the crew renovate a gravel driveway, re-grade a yard, dig some trenches, and do other small jobs - all while we were out of town on vacation. Brandon sent frequent photos and texts, called me daily, and ensured the work was done properly despite our not being there. If you need any excavation projects done, big or small, give Brandon at Maxx a call. They simply get it done!”

“I'd like to take a moment here to rave about the fantastic experience I had with Brandon and his team. We used this company's services for a backyard overhaul. The first time Brandon came by for an estimate, I was so impressed by his thoughtful questions and attention to detail to make sure that he understood exactly what I was looking for. On our first meeting he even showed photos of the various rocks he offers to make sure I would be happy with the colours, sizes and textures. Throughout his time working at our home he was polite, showed up on time, worked incredibly hard and had fantastic communication skills. His whole crew was a joy to work with. I threw so many curve balls at Brandon and his team with many new ideas they hadn't tackled before. Nevertheless, they rolled with every idea and blew the execution out of the park! I am so captivated by how they transformed our space in only 3.5 short days. I could not recommend this company more highly for hardscaping/landscaping or backyard renovations! Thank you Brandon and team!”

“I would highly recommend Maxx Contracting. I had them build a retaining wall in a very difficult area to get at in Departure Bay. They did a superb job, in a timely fashion, and they have more than enough new or near-new equipment to do the job. You will not go wrong by having them do your project for you.”

“You guys dug up my waterline on Fitzwilliam St. today. Tonight when I returned home from work I had a look at the job. Good work! The driveway you had to dig up looks great. You were here when you said you would be. You got the job done. The price was reasonable. I will have no hesitation recommending you to friends or calling you back if I need your services again.”
