Stefan and his team are exactly what a home owner would want! He took the time to help educate us on our options, took our needs to heart and was always on time and under budget! Would recommend the Refind Builders team to anyone, regardless of the size of the job.

We are so very happy with our large-scale renovation through Refind Builders. Stefan, Helena and the entire crew are nothing but professional, trustworthy and very skilled. They were able to take our vision and make it a reality. We have had nothing but compliments from friends, family and strangers walking by with the renovation. We would highly recommend this company

I have had the pleasure of working with Stefan on several renovation projects. He has a great team of his own and relationships with all of the necessary quality skilled trades people needed to bring in to complete a job.
Stefan is currently working on 3 renovations that involve mutual clients of mine at Incredible Home. Stefan is known for finishing on time, on budget and without fuss. I highly recommend Stefan for your renovation needs.
I recently worked on renovation project with Stefan of Refind Builders & my clients & I could not be more happy with the outcome! From start to finish his positive and up beat presence got us through the project with ease. He is dependable, honest, & hardworking, with incredible finishing work. Cant wait to work on the next project with him & would highly recommend him! Thanks Stefan
In the spring of 2014 Stefan was recommended to me by a neighbor. I was renovating a house in Rockland that included a variety of projects over four floors. The work involved framing, hanging drywall, installing doors, installing window casing, assembling and installing kitchen cabinets, tiling, patching hardwood floors and a variety of other projects.
The following summer, in 2015, we were completing a suite on the lower floor. Stefan and Chris returned to complete that part of the renovation work as well. I was and still am impressed by the quality of the work and the efficiency in which it was completed.
Stefan and Chris both are highly skilled carpenters and tradesmen. They arrived on time, worked independently and efficiently. At the end of each work day, they reviewed what was accomplished that day and set a plan for the next. And they ended each work day with a clean worksite with their tools stored.
During the past few decades I have benefited from the work of various trades people both in Vancouver and Victoria. I would rank Stefan and Chris as the best I have worked with.
I highly recommend Stefan of Refind Builders. Should you want to speak to me directly, Stefan can provide my contact information to you.

In the spring of 2014 my wife and I chose Stefan Roodbol of Remove and Renew Contracting, (now known as Refind Builders Inc.), to remove and recycle the existing back deck and sliding glass door, construct a new deck and install two French Doors. In addition, we required them to remove the existing window on the south wall of our sun room, open up this wall and install a larger character window in our 1935 house. This work was done under permit; consequently it was inspected by the Oak Bay building inspector.
Stefan and his assistants were always courteous and quiet. I’ve overheard other work crews at neighbouring houses who are loud and often use offensive language. I never had to worry about these poor working manners from Stefan or his assistants. Because of their work ethics, pleasant dispositions, willingness to accommodate our schedule and their ability to complete the construction on time and on budget, I have no hesitation in recommending Stefan to you.

Shout out to Refind Builders for their exceptional work in dealing with rot on the bottom of our house, organizing stucco repairs, and installation of new stairs and railing. They made what started out as a stressful situation that much easier with their trustworthy work ethic! We have used this company previously for building our back deck, our bathroom heated tile floor, and all of our exterior doors. Highly recommend this family run business!!!

We feel very fortunate to have had Stefan and his Refind Builders team taking care of our kitchen renovation. The end result is fantastic, but it is the great care and attention during the process that made this experience so positive. Stefan is very knowledgeable and made sure that each step of the process was managed seamlessly. It was a pleasure to have them here each day. I highly recommend this great team.
A very positive experience.

We are more than happy with the service provided with Stefan and his Company, Refind Builders. He really went above and beyond the call. As we were travelling during the first half he kept us informed and sent pictures of our total kitchen renovation. He and his crew are courteous kind and caring. He came in on time and under budget.
I cannot recommend this company enough and would use this them again in an instant. We are more than happy with our kitchen.
Stefan did a substantial renovation for us about 3 years ago which included a complete kitchen gut and rebuild, remodeling 2 bathrooms, new flooring, refinishing fireplaces, upgrading electrical and structural issues to meet code, etc.
We were very pleased with the quality of his team’s work, his pricing and his commitment to excellence and meeting our expectations/requirements. Moving forward a few years, shortly before this Christmas (2018) we noticed under the counter mounted sink which part of the renovation was separating from the counter top and we phoned him to see if he could fix it or recommend somebody that could. Stefan came personally and fixed it within a few days at no cost, at this very busy time of year.
What can we say we were truly impressed and appreciative; his action is a clear demonstration of how he stands behind his work. Needless to say we will continue to recommend him to any of our friends or aquatints that are looking for a first-rate contractor,

Stefan has done a number of medium-sized jobs for me, both in my home and in a rental property I owned. He provided his time and cost estimates promptly and if there were any changes he communicated them quickly. His crew were cheerful, courteous and considerate of my tenants; I never had any concerns leaving them at work in my home. Stefan’s communication skills are excellent, a quality that cannot be under-estimated when embarking on a costly and disruptive project. I look forward to working with him in the future.

From the first conversation to the final conversation, and then the 12 other conversations toward iterative additional improvements after that — doing business with Stefan and his team was the easiest part of renovating our residence. Stefan and the team always asked first, explained during, and reviewed afterward. We had his team build an addition to our family home while we were living, parenting and working in it. At the time, my pregnant wife, who works from home, was able to carry on her busy schedule without any disruptions while Stefan and the team were hard at work, literally putting a new roof over our heads. Whenever there were choices to make regarding budget alternatives, Stefan communicated clearly and respectfully with us, straight-up and in a straight-forward manner – which was very appreciated. In the end, we accomplished exactly we signed up for, and couldn’t be happier about choosing Refind Builders, Stefan and his team (including handling subcontractors).
