Cape Breton West Construction Ltd.

Feb 2021

Had a great experience last summer working with Aymes Mustard and Cape Breton West Construction! I have worked with many builders over the years, and I think CB West is one of the best outfits around. Our group did a major Heritage Lighthouse restoration of the Margaree Harbour Range Lights in 2020. Throughout the experience, Aymes and crew were reliable, sticking to their promised start date, and cooperating even when WE had to change the date. Aymes was very helpful with technical and materials information, and during the work phase, when changes in approach were required, I could rely on him for calm, good judgement when I needed it. Aymes took it all in stride, and in his low-key way, easily cooperated and accommodated our needs. Whenever Aymes was not on-site, his men were also very accommodating. CB West Construction seems like a busy outfit, and while Aymes sometimes needed to move his workers temporarily to other jobs, he finished our project within the agreed time frame, and within his quote amount, which was very fair. The quality of the finished work was top-notch, conforming to the challenges of a Heritage-level project. Early on, when we were looking for a builder, some of the other outfits were not able (or some not willing), to tackle the more exacting requirements of the work we wanted completed. These parameters didn't present any obstacle to CB West. I would recommend Aymes to anyone planning a building project small or large. They have the experience and equipment to get things done. Based on my positive experience with Aymes and crew last year, I will be working with CB West again this summer on a new building project.
