Century Home Porch Restoration

Doug and Patrick did a phenomenal job restoring the front porch and upper gable on our 130 year old property. Due to the age and methods used constructing this house, the restoration required many specialities and a delicate hand and the finished product is unbelievable.

Porch rebuild

We hired Quality Restorations to do a straight forward rebuild / stabilization of a porch on our Victorian semi in downtown Toronto (plus a new fence). Doug was a no-nonsense type of contractor and was clear and upfront. He delivered what he said he would and his price was fair and competitive. We had a couple of change orders required and Doug was always clear on why and how much - and always sought our approval before advancing work. No surprises. Patrick his carpenter was courteous and clean and did a great job. He got the job done in a reasonable time period and made sure we were happy. We were very happy with the quality of work and ease of the process. We would recommend Quality Restoration for this type of work and will be using them for other renovation works in future. Many thanks!

Front porch restoration

We hired Quality Restorations & Renovations to restore our 1914 original front porch. The crew were professional and friendly- they custom built a lot of the components of the porch railing to match the existing and arrived with the pieces painted and ready for installation which made the install as efficient as possible.
We are very happy with our rebuilt front porch- it matches our original porch and looks great. I would highly recommend Quality Restorations & Renovations!

Gut & Finish Century House + Garage

Our experience with Quality Restorations was nothing short of phenomenal. We embarked on a comprehensive renovation journey for our old home, and from the onset, their professionalism and commitment to excellence were evident.

The scope of work was extensive, encompassing intricate tasks like basement underpinning, replacing the outdated knob and tube wiring, installing spray foam insulation, redoing the front porch, redoing the floors, painting the walls, and upgrading the entire plumbing system with PEX pipes. Their attention to detail in each of these critical areas was impressive, ensuring the safety and modernization of our home.

The HVAC overhaul demonstrated their mastery in communication. There were issues where some vents on the drawings could not be installed due to blockades in the house; Quality Restorations conveyed these issues and came up with good workarounds.

One of the more challenging aspects of the project was opening up our kitchen by taking down a load-bearing wall. Quality Restorations navigated this with finesse, seamlessly transforming our living space. The result exceeded our expectations a modern, open-concept kitchen that has become the heart of our home.

Additionally, the construction of a new garage was executed with the same precision and commitment to quality. The team's efficiency and adherence to timelines were commendable, creating a smooth renovation experience for us.

Throughout the process, communication was a strong suit of Quality Restorations. Regular updates, transparent discussions about challenges, and collaborative decision-making made us feel involved and confident in the project's progression.

If you're in search of a renovation company that combines expertise, reliability, and a genuine commitment to exceeding expectations, look no further than Quality Restorations. Our home's transformation is a testament to their skill, and we wholeheartedly recommend them for any renovation endeavor.

Quality Restorations, Renovations and Resue!!

We had been set-up as a potential of another very unscrupulous company who had left us with siding poorly removed and a mess of the back of our house. We called Doug and his crew who arrived very quickly, and surveyed the damage. He did a comprehensive study of the work to be done, presented a very clear quote an proceeded to renovate the porch, repair old damaged walls, replace an exterior door and, add exterior insulation and finally siding. His communication was clear, regular and his crew was outstanding. We could chat with Patrick anytime and he was forthright, friendly and informative. We always knew where we stood in terms schedule, time and completion. We highly recommend Quality Restorations and Renovations for there pure professionalism. A class act all the way.

Excellent Deck Replacement

Quality Restorations & Renovations replaced my second-story deck in record time. I got three quotes and Doug was the only contractor that listened and responded to my questions. Everything was done professionally and Patrick and crew cleaned up each day. The deck was done in 3 days! Communication was great throughout.

Amazing service from start to finish!

I needed my front porch redone and wanted to freshen up the look of my house. Doug was very professional, paid attention to details and made sure he understood exactly what I wanted before providing a quote. He sent me lots of pictures and examples and made the process so easy and I immediately knew that I was in good hands. When the job started I was contacted by Patrick who was equally professional and informative. Him and his team were very skilled and I was amazed at how they transformed my old porch into such a beautiful and functional space. I requested a few changes along the way and they were always very accommodating and helpful no matter how many changes I asked for. I highly recommend them and hope that you are just as pleased with their work and service as I am.

Composite deck

My husband hired Quality Restorations to replace a poorly built wooden deck last year in our new home. They were very responsive and their workmanship is excellent. There were some delays in building supplies and material costs, but it was due to the pandemic and Quality Resorations honoured their contract. The deck is exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend this company.

Best trade ever!

Stop searching, stop getting other quotes and just hire Doug and his team.

We built two homes (the first half of the construction was during the pandemic) and Doug and his team were the most: (1) responsive, (2) clear communicators, (3) timely, (4) on budget, and (5) precise people we dealt with. I could not believe the level of service, quality of workmanship and speed. I wish all of our trades were like Doug and his team (a special shout out to Patrick).

What is more, when we were struggling to get our occupancy certificate because another trade didnt do their job, Doug and Patrick stepped in, no questions asked, charged us almost nothing for the fix, and help ensure we were able to get our occupancy on time for the move.

I have not and would not leave a review like this for any other trade. If you want peace of mind (ie, no stress about budget, no stress about quality, no stress about timing and chasing contractors, and the confidence you can clearly communicate what you want and get what you want) these are your guys.
