"Wonderful work!! Chris were great to work with for a variety of projects including custom cabinets and a built-in storage bench. They made sure every aspect was done correctly and didn’t cut any corners. Very responsive. Well worth the cost to have the work done so well and with great customer service."
"We are very pleased with the work Chris and his crew did replacing the floor in our bedroom and bathroom. He communicated well from quote through final installation. Definitely recommend Canal for home improvement projects!"
