Harlequin Homes

Beginning mid-April, 2015, we had Harlequin Homes do a major renovation. The focus was a new kitchen which also entailed the removal of a wall between the family room and kitchen, plus movement of the dining room wall to further enlarge the kitchen. Compliant with the building permit, this resulted in a seamless ceiling, with no beams visible. A partial wall between the living and dining room was also removed to further enlarge and modernize the area. The affect was further enhanced with the lowering of the already generous kitchen window and replacing it with a one-lite window looking into our lovely yard and pool.
The kitchen speaks for itself: it is much larger, inviting and stunning. We love it! Kitchen design (by Nataliya – very talented) and boxes were by Lucvaa Kitchens (www.lucvaa.com) – well-built and great features. Birdseye maple cupboard doors and trim were by Marbel Cabinet Doors (www.marbel.ca) with a beautiful, satin-like finish; Darren and Todd did a great job in ensuring perfection of the wood. The lovely unique backsplash adds colour and compliments the quality Birdseye. These tiles are a Spanish glass mosaic with gold and silver/platinum glazing that is designed to effectively reflect the light. (Purchased at Weston Tile, this Onix design is Cosmic, colour is Lucca).
The family room nicely adds a hominess to compliment the open concept. We decided to also renew the laundry area and better utilize the existing closet by opening it up and installing customized shelving. Upgrading of the powder room finished things off nicely.
Mike, the owner of Harlequin Homes, was outstanding. We appreciated his patience with last minute changes and his ability to creatively solve problems. He has great depth in home building and was highly efficient in getting the various jobs done – he really knows what he is doing. His team were tops in their skill areas – all were so proficient. Pricing was good value and the payment plan very fair. We felt total confidence in Mike’s abilities and highly recommend Harlequin Homes.
Our goal was to make a beautiful change that would be timeless, with durable products…we love our new kitchen and all that comes with it! Thank you everyone!

Harlequin brought new life to our home. It looks great! But, more importantly, it feels great!

We really appreciated Mike's understanding of what we needed this project to be. He communicated with us each day on all details and offered solutions that were esthetically and financially pleasing. Great planning and clear communications made for a smooth ride for us all.

I left each morning knowing my home was in good hands and was excited to walk in the door at the end of the day to see the amazing transformations that were taking place.

I worked with Harlequin based on a recommendation from a previous client and would not hesitate to refer them to anyone for any project.

Mike and Jamie were wonderful - not only did they promise and deliver but they kept the house clean (which I was amazed at). I am so happy with the end result - looks better then I ever imagined. Thanks guys

I had a certain budget in mind while considering my basement TV room project. Mike was very receptive to my needs while keeping within my budget guidelinies. Despite the Christmas holiday season, the work was done promptly. Mike communicated throughout the process what would happen and when. Everything was done in a timely fashion with little or no mess afterward. Mike and Jamie were both friendly and helpful and went out of their way to accommodate. Despite a lag in the carpet's arrival (no fault of Harlequin), the project was completed in the suggested time frame, just as Mike had stated on the estimate. The subcontractors were very prompt and consciencous as well. Mike went over and above my expectations. I am very satisfied with Harlequin and would not hesitate to recommend their business. Great job, great people. Thank you!

Given a challenging set of projects, Mike and Jamie were terrific. They went above and beyond the call of duty in customer service, working with different professionals and getting the job done as rapidly and as thoroughly as possible. I highly, highly recommend Harlequin Homes.

I recently moved into a townhouse and, having a dog, am required to fence in the backyard. I called several companies to get quotes and had 3 come by. Michael McCabe was the ONLY professional to actually measure more than just the width required. Not only was he able to do the job quickly for me but he was professional, courteous and straighforward. The final invoice was exactly the same as his quote - which was extremely reasonable - and he helped me out with a couple of little things that he didn't even charge me for. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Mike and Harlequin Homes to anyone...and, in fact, already have!

After I moved into a newly purchased, older house, I found out I had a mold problem: A pipe had been slowly leaking unto a carpet that was left under a new house extension. The resulting mold growth had created a smell permeating the whole house and the mold had started to spread on the carpet under the flooring.

Mike located the problem quickly, recommended a solution that was practical and economical and then quickly fixed it.

I am very happy with Mike's work, his quick get-to-the-point problem fixing and the execution results. I got a great value for my money and happily recommend Mike as he stands behind his work and delivers what he promises. You will not be disappointed.

My family has known Mike [last name removed -- Ed] for a long time. He finished my mother's basement and my aunt's basement, and did such a tremendous job. When my wife and I needed to choose a contractor, it wasn't even up for discussion - we called Mike right away. He is a true, and honest professional, who works incredibly hard and pays great attention to detail. He is easy to get in contact with, by phone or e-mail, and always has a smile on his face. He told us that the job would take approximately 10 days, and it actually only took 7 - done with precision, and professionalism. We are so thrilled with the final product. I would recomment Mike and Harlequin Homes to anyone.

We purchased our home from Harlequin Homes Limited. It was a new build and was completed before we purchased it. We had seen many homes at this point but were impressed by the layout and the interesting design details and quality, which made it stand out from others we were considering.
Our builder, Michael McCabe, was wonderful to deal with. He has an easy-going personality but is always professional, trustworthy and a source of information! He takes the time to help you understand how things work, what you can expect and how to deal with any problems that may occur.
I always felt that I could call Michael and he would help with any issues I may have had and he certainly stands by his work!
I would highly recommend Michael for any job - in fact my husband will be working with him on an office renovation!

I hired Mike referred to me by a friend, to build fencing and repair broken gates, he was timely, great job, cleaned up after himself - would recommend this guy to ANYBODY - very happy customer here
