About Matt Williamson in Shawnigan Lake and the Cowichan Valley
Learned the trade at a small outfit.
Hi, I'm Matt Williamson.
My construction career kicked off learning the ropes at a small outfit called Darco Contracting, where I picked up a diverse set of skills from Dave Roberts. When Dave eventually had to close up shop, I decided to venture out on my own. I didn't know exactly what the future held back then, but looking back now, it's amazing to see how many years have flown by.
Since founding Matts Island Construction in 2013, I've kept that same small-outfit dedication to quality, straight seams, and hands-on service. Today, I pride myself on providing clear answers, showing up on schedule, and delivering flawless finishes on every deck, bathroom, and renovation we touch. We are the general contractor that exceeds expectations, every time.
When I'm not on the tools, life is busy at home here in the valley with my wife of 12 years and counting, our three boys, our cats, and our dog.

Matt resurfaced our deck, removing the old cracked fibreglass surface and the old plywood that had been installed incorrectly. ... We were impressed with Matt's attention to detail: the seams and edges are all straight and flat.
He was so easy to work with and helped us remodel our deck to what we had imagined it could be. Matt was extremely communicative and always responded to our messages within a few hours.
Matt is an excellent communicator, keeping us informed throughout the entire process of repairing our deck. He was punctual, paid close attention to detail, and completed the job on time.
The quality of workmanship Matt provides is second to none, superb, and our new decks look awesome.
We are so grateful to have met Matt and have him rebuild our deck. Matt is honest, hardworking, and has exceptional skills, and knowledge of all matters of home construction.
Matt is excellent and we can't speak highly enough of his work. He updated my whole house and I was really impressed with his attention to detail. All work was well thought out and well done.
Matt didn't take any shortcuts, which gives us confidence we will be able to enjoy our deck for years to come.
Matt has just completed a deck renovation for us. Communication is key to me and he is a very good at it. (and funny, too) Staying in touch while we awaited Spring. He was professional, well prepared, punctual and meticulous in his work.
Matt is the bathroom renovation wizard! So happy with how this one has turned out. Highly recommend to anyone
