Request a quoteThe first call I got after using ProCompare and that was the beginning of great things including prompt service delivery. I loved that Jaco communicated everything throughout the project and provided alternative solutions. The company possesses a variety of construction related skills and they were able to offer additional services, so this is a one stop shop for renovations and construction related services. They respected time, worked within budget and also communicated savings (this is super rare) and I really appreciate and respect Jaco for this. Not only did I get the service I requested but I also got advise and guidance on renovations related matters. Jaco and team, I will forever be grateful. Clear and timely communication made the process easy and they met and exceeded all expectations. Thank you.
Clear communication from start to finish. I would recommend Delkon and will definitely use them again, when the need arises.

Lazarus was very easy to deal with and very accommodating. His estimate of time to do the job was fairly accurate, although he did underestimate the amount of paint required - but I had expected this, based on other quotes I received. His guys were quick and neat.
