Our Core Value, Quality
From our very first Edmonton project 25 years ago, 1st String Renovations & Painting has been committed to providing top quality painting and renovation services. This is the foundation on which our values have been built. These values are as strong today as they were then following our move to Victoria. As a top tier renovation contractor, we promise:
- To never take on more projects than our current team can handle (quality over quantity)
- To make a strict commitment to meet or exceed the customer’s expectations and requirements
- To communicate the challenges, hurdles and progress of the project professionally and clearly
- To always accommodate customer requests
- To keep the job site safe and clean throughout the painting/renovation project
These are the promises that let our customers sleep soundly at night, knowing their project is in great hands.
Details Still Matter to Us
It has always been the little details that matter when it comes to a renovation that really stands out. Our customers feel the same way and it is often one of the major reasons they choose 1st String Renovations & Painting.
Things like the proper tone of wood, or the right bevel edge on a counter are the type of details that you’ll obsess over once the project is done. So we obsess about them during the project so the end result meets or exceeds your own expectations.
A Contractor You Can Trust
I don’t spread my team too thin. Many larger firms have multiple jobs ongoing. We don’t. We focus only on what we can handle with our current sub-contractors and tradesmen. We’ve been doing this for over 30 years. That’s longer than many home owners have been in business.
We’re still here because people like you have either used us, or been referred by others. We bring what you need done to life.
It’s very satisfying to pass that on to a delighted customer.
