We went to see Edward at Classic Fireplace and Lifestyle at Rylander Blvd. All I can say is if you want exemplary service and wonderful recommendations, and great advice - go and see Edward. We purchased 3 fireplaces and a Big Green Egg from Edward. Whatever the ranking is on here. 8/5 stars. 15/10 stars. 5/5 and 10/10 do not do Edward justice. We changed our minds a couple of times and Edward worked with us to find our final solution. It was an amazing experience. Thank you Edward. 100 times over. If you need a fire place or barbecue do yourself a favour and go and ask for Edward. Tell him Rob and Shelly sent you!!

We began the installation of our fiberglass pool and spa at the beginning of summer 2020 – in the middle of the pandemic. The transformation of the backyard, the quality of the work and materials on the pool, spa, and landscaping, and the increase to our usable space, far exceeded our expectations. From our first quotation meeting and through the entire process, Elliot (the owner) was there every step of the way. We were always given sound advice, great ideas, and most importantly, options. From the get-go we were able to trust Elliot and his team. His pricing was totally fair, but we never felt that there would be any surprises. We weren’t pushed into any direction or decision; the choices were entirely our own, with the right information on hand to inform said decisions. Trust, fairness, and transparency are critical qualities that you cannot always find in a contractor. We spoke or text with Elliot daily (multiple times on most days!), and if we had any questions or concerns, he ensured that either he, or his site manager Wayne, answered everything. Each team that arrived on site was an absolute pleasure to work with, and always attentive to our questions. I was truly impressed by their level of detail and pride of workmanship. Everyone on the team has an underlying sentiment of “This is your home, and we treat it like our own, and if you’re happy, we’re happy!” This happens when that point of view is cascaded down from the owner to the teams working on the ground. We are very critical and pushed them for perfection, and they always rose to the challenge. They never made us feel like we were a bother or creating more work for them. It didn’t faze them at all. Unforeseen challenges (which happens in ALL projects) were always met with solutions, so we never felt that this would get out of hand from a time or financial perspective. A pool is a large-scale project - don’t let anyone tell you otherwise! This type of project needs someone who has in-depth knowledge of the process, how to meet timelines, and how to alleviate and lighten the stress burden on the homeowner. Elliot and YR Pools not only met those requirements, but for me, far exceeded them. I was extremely apprehensive about the install of a pool, but if I’m being honest, if I had Elliot doing the job, I would have done it 2 years ago. We are so happy with our new pool and look forward for enjoyment for years to come. Thanks Elliot, Wayne, Edgar, and all the teams for a wonderful experience.

I have 3 great experiences with Canadian Roofing: 1. I received a quote from Jason to construct my flat roof on the porch of my new build. Jason and team provided me with a quote that was fair, gave me a good detailed description of what work was going to be performed so that I could feel comfortable that the job was in good hands, and then completed the work on time, My only regret was that I didn't see Jason's quote for my full roofing job in time and I gave that job to another contractor which brings me to #2! 2. My full new roof was done with a different contractor who really didn't do a great job. Following a particularly severe storm, we noticed water leaking in on of our bathrooms. I immediately called the contractor who did the work and he completely ignored my calls, My guarantee is worthless with him. I called Jason, and he came out as soon as he could on the same day, and assessed and fixed the problem right there on the spot. He took pictures while on the roof and text them to me on the ground so that I could see what he was seeing.Jason gave me a discount for being a repeat customer of his which was much appreciated. 3. Our entire house needed caulking and Jason informed us of this as we had no idea. Not his job, but took the time to help us understand something about the project. He provided us with another excellent contractor who also did great work. If I could go back and redo the work, I would have had Jason at Canadian Roofing do my entire roofing job AND aluminum work on my house. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for honesty and quality of work on one of the MOST important elements of your home.

Highlights of our experience with Golden Valley Decks: - Very honest and handles his business with integrity - Management of budget - Quality of workmanship - Adherence to timelines We wanted to expand our existing deck into a much more complicated, multi-level design. After experiencing deck issues in the past with previous contractors, we wanted to go with a trusted contractor, so we went to Home Depot and were put onto Ryan at Golden Valley Decks. We gave our design idea to Ryan and he provided us with his recommendation on how to achieve what we wanted. He sat down with us, broke costs down for us (which when we did our own math, was exactly in line with our expectations - nothing hidden). We were using Trex, and went back and forth a few times with Ryan until we arrived at a look that we were happy with. He never pressured us into doing more than we wanted. He provided a timeline and stuck to it. We asked for some changes along the way, and Ryan accommodated those changes, even though it meant some re-work for his team. The finished product was everything we thought it would be and we were extremely happy with it. There were a couple of items that we wanted to be tweaked just a little. True to his word, Ryan also came back and made those changes for us. This made us feel that we were a valued customer to him, and that if anything were to happen that Ryan would uphold his end of the guarantee that he provided. I have NO issue recommending Ryan, and a co-worker has already had Golden Valley build a deck for him after my referral. We have received many compliments on the quality of work and how great the deck looks. We were very, very happy with our experience, and if we have to build another deck, I would not hesitate to call Golden Valley decks again.

Our first meeting with Dino gave us the confidence to go with Diamond Tiie and Contracting. Dino's level of expertise in the area of tiling, his passion for the appearance of the final product, and his commitment to quality assurance made our decision easy. Henry was assigned to our job which was to tile our bathrooms, foyer, mudroom, and kitchen backsplash - our entire home. Henry was like a part of the family. He took care and did beautiful work. He worked with us on how we wanted our tiles to look, and gave us recommendations on what would look the best. The final product is absolutely gorgeous. Tiles can be very, very expensive and you want a contractor who is going to respect the product that you have paid for and make it look its absolute best. For us, that was Diamond Tile and Contracting. 100% recommendation.
