Charbel is absolutely FANTASTIC! He is reliable, efficient, tidy and very professional. He recently did a lot of work in our dining/living room that involved drywall and finishing.

Charbel is my first call for home improvements and repairs big or small. He's provided me with solutions for a variety of jobs and doesn't shy away from offering alternative options, budget friendly fixes or even telling me when something can wait.

We contracted Mr. Charbel for two jobs. Front steps — design and replace crumbling interlocking brick style steps. The result was excellent.

I'm really impressed with the frame my carpenter built around my TV. The craftsmanship is excellent — everything looks clean, precise, and professional. Beyond the great work, he's a genuinely nice person, talented, and easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Charbel installed four floating shelves and his attention to detail was amazing. Thank you so much! We are very happy with the result.

Charbel was easy to work with. He did a great job on the fence. Unfortunately the wood he had to use from Home Depot wasn't completely dry (seems that's the way it is these days), and the gap between boards is a bit more than expected — but the workmanship was solid.

We had Charbel come in to our home to hang a TV on the wall with floating shelves, excellent service, LOTS of patience and fantastic job all around. We also had him come back to hang a chandelier in our foyer which was a meticulous job done well.

Charbel is AMAZING! He reconstructed my front stairs and built a lovely retaining wall for my front garden. It was even better than I imagined. I've also had some smaller jobs done to perfection. Friendly, professional, hard working and endlessly talented. I highly recommend.

In a word, AWESOME!! Endless talent and skill, determination, honest and a constant critical eye, made for a quick and easy decision to ask Charbel to do another job, our rear deck. We now have one of the nicest decks I've seen, on time and on budget.

Hiring Charbel and his team at Building Problems Solver has been a game-changer for me. They've handled several inside and outside jobs, and each time, they've knocked it out of the park. What stands out is their professionalism and clear communication.

We had recently hired Charbel from Building Problems Solver Inc. for basement flooring and repairs to the walls. He was kind enough to drop by prior to the job to assess and provide his guidance, including what options are available.
