AGM Renovations

My wife and I would like to let everyone at AGM Basement Renovations know how happy and thoroughly pleased we are with our newly finished basement!

The way the process was conducted was very smooth and organized. From the first meeting with Amar to discuss the scope, our options and costs, to 3D design from Kate together with recommended materials, Maria and the Customer Service Team, the nice young lady who greeted us when we arrive at their offices and last but most importantly, the very skillful, efficient and professional structural crew – framing, drywall, tile, flooring installation, painting, plumbing and especially electrical all under the tutelage of Rocco. The result is a nice, cozy and beautifully done renovation and on time as promised.

We definitely made the right choice and will gladly recommend and speak highly of AGM Basements Reno with no hesitation at all.

WE ARE SO HAPPY THAT WE CHOSE AGM RENOVATIONS TO FINISH OUR BASEMENT. AFTER GETTING A MUCH HIGHER QUOTE FROM ANOTHER CONTRACTOR FOR OUR BASEMENT, AGM OFFERED US A QUOTE MORE SUITABLE TO OUR BUDGET. THE END RESULT OF OUR BASEMENT IS AMAZING!!!
THE CUSTOMER SERVICE TEAM, HAS BEEN GREAT AT RETURNING OUR EMAILS/MESSAGES QUITE PROMPTLY. OMAR & MARIA HAVE BEEN VERY POSITIVE & PATIENT WITH US. THE INTERIOR DESIGNER, LORENZO, WHO DESIGNED OUR BASEMENT PLAN & HELPED US WITH THE SELECTION OF OUR MATERIALS WAS SO GREAT TO WORK WITH. ALL OF THE TRADES/CONTRACTORS WHO WORKED ON OUR BASEMENT WERE VERY NICE AS WELL AND SO FRIENDLY WITH OUR TWO KIDS, ESPECIALLY MY LITTLE SON.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND AGM RENOVATIONS

It has been excellent from the first phone call to AGM Basemts. Their service department was prompt in getting any queries or concerns that I had with the process. I was informed that I would be assigned a Designer and a Project Manager for my job which I thought was a nice touch. I bought my house new a few years ago and was not afforded such excellent service.I was shown a 3D design of what the completed job would look like.The contractors came on time and completed the job as if it were their own home. The area was cleaned after each day and the garbage stored.The end result surpassed my expectations. The paint job was neat,the floors, the lighting, the bar area, all done with care and expertise.The extra special touch was the 'cleaning service' that came in like little elves when we were away to ensure that everything was spotless for the grand reveal!

First off I must say that the customer service is remarkable, Omar has given my wife and I the best service possible. All of our questions were answered right away, no hidden costs, no hidden anything, just true workmanship and skills. I will recommend this company to anybody looking to do their basement, I have also given the company many personal references which have also received great results from agm.

Thanks again for the job well done agm!

This was our first time undertaking a major reno and we were a bit nervous but AGM did a commendable job in creating a beautiful basement for us. What's best about this company is the professionalism with which they deal with their clients. Right from the sales rep, to the designer, the framers, and all the trades people - everyone worked hard to deliver their services on time without compromising quality. There's always hurdles in any major renovation and we had a few minor ones but what was great about AGM is that they put in the effort to find solutions as best as they could to meet our expectations. This was something we really appreciated as often some contractors will say there's nothing they can do about something unexpected and move on. We have been getting a lot of compliments on our basement from everyone and it's a perfect space for our family. Their quote is competitive given that you get quality, punctuality, professionalism and excellent customer service. This is worth paying a bit extra for to avoid stress and hassle.
Thank you to the entire AGM team for a job well done!

AGM Basements are the standard by which we would judge all other contractors. They were fast, always on site when they said they would be and they finished on time. Every worker was polite, conscientious, professional, and so happy to please us. We truly were their first concern- that the basement be beautiful and that we would enjoy it. There were NO horror stories here, only the MOST helpful team of workers I have ever encountered. You will NOT be disappointed if you hire them.

I had over a half dozen companies and independent contractors come to my place to give me a quote for my basement renovation (main area, a 3 piece washroom, room and storage area). My project ended recently on time and I have to say AGM fulfilled everything I required. The main advantage of working with AGM is everything is done with them from start to finish, from the concept; design, workmanship, and even final clean up.

The entire staff is extremely proficient and focus on customer service. I had a lot of questions at the start of the project, and was very involved in asking questions with every tradesman that I came across. Each and every person understood this and took the time to answer my questions both technically if I understood what they were doing, to breaking things down in plain language so that I could understand. They treated my house and time with respect and made it a point to check in with me or my family to ensure we were comfortable. Even with a lock box outside, they made it a point to ring the bell and knock before coming in, just in case I was still home when they arrived. It is a small thing to some people, but one of the many things that is appreciated when you are living thru a big project. The experience each person has is very evident. Everyone went out of their way to be courteous, efficient and transparent in what they do. Each person that came was skilled in the particular thing that they did.

My project was very complex, as I had a lot of big visions and an extremely tight budget. The entire team understood this and gave me excellent professional guidance as to where to spend my money and where to save. This was extremely helpful, and appreciated as now that the project is complete. I had some changes when the project was in full swing, and they were very clear on how much it would cost and what the benefit and opportunity of the change would be. Again, this is extremely appreciated and now that the project is done, I can see how everything they said made sense.

The materials used was as promised and far superior to builder grade materials. I personally researched and asked about materials being used prior to start and they lived up to that. The workmanship is excellent and of a very high standard. The project manager made sure he was available when I needed him. The designer was able to recognize when she came to my house the type of paint I used upstairs (just by looking at it) and gave me a suitable compliment to quality in my basement, which was very impressive. The salesman was knowledgeable, patient and detail oriented, often pointing out things which helped save money and make excellent use of the space. Ultimately from start to finish, everyone exceeded my expectations.

From a consumer point of view, my suggestion is to make sure to be available (by phone, email or in person) for the first few days of construction. As with any major project, a lot of little questions and opportunities come up. The employees want to make sure that you are satisfied with the project and want to get it right the first time. Making yourself available during that time will ensure that you avoid settling on anything. I am very happy that I had someone at home during the start of the project to answer all the questions (first 2 or 3 days). With that said, the company was very trust worthy and kept the work area clear of any debris to the best of their ability. They were also very quick to pick up any debris outside and did so several times during the project.

The entire team did everything to ensure that my project came in on time and with excellent quality. For peace of mind, everything is written in the contract, and they provide an excellent 2 year warrantee. Overall I had an positive experience with AGM and recommend them.

I have to take a moment to recognize AGM for the fantastic work they did in finishing our basement and for their professionalism and commitment throughout the process.
I am notoriously hard to please and by nature I am always skeptical that service providers can live up to their commitments. From the beginning I was certain that my basement would not be finished on time and that my costs would magically increase once work started.
To my complete shock I could not have been more wrong. The team at AGM met every milestone in our timeline, the price they quoted did not change and they actually finished the job early! From our interactions with the sales team, design center (a special call out to Alene who was just fantastic) to the onsite crew everyone was extremely responsive, qualified and focused on quality.
We could not be more happy with the results and I have not stopped talking to friends and neighbors about how pleased we have been with our entire experience! I would highly recommend AGM for anyone who is considering having their basement finished – there prices are competitive, their quality is exceptional and they run their business professionally by honoring commitments and ensuring that the homeowner is kept up to date on all aspects of the project!

I read the reviews on HomeStars and did some research and brought them in for an estimate. They were very easy to talk to right from the beginning as this was my first time ever doing a project like this and I was very nervous. This was a full 2 bedroom basement apartment. I loved the fact they handled everything from start to finish. They stayed to their estimate right from the beginning and we were able to add extras when we saw the final design.
The work was excellent and loved the materials they used for finishing. They employed all the trades and knew what was needed to meet code. I only had to watch and enjoy the process. My neighbours who reviewed their work after each stage were nothing but complimentary.
Also found all the workers so polite and hard working. Very dedicated to making sure that I was happy with their efforts.
I would highly recommend AGM to anyone. They made a very stressful process a happy experience for my family.
