Basement Renovation part of the project.

I was pretty satisfied with Alex's work over all. I sensed we could trust him and in the end my instincts were correct. He gave us a very reasonable quote. I liked the contract. I requested a lien waver clause and he accommodated that but in the end I decided to trust he would pay his subcontractors correctly as they always seemed to do any corrections or completions we asked for eventually. I explain "eventually" in the next paragraph.

We went the permit route and had a double permit. Because the project was in the summer there was no way to know how much vacation time the permit office personnel would have. Permit delays caused our project to delay such that it conflicted with other projects Alex had on the go. We accepted this without issue knowing it would cause delays in the project. In effect we created the delays by going the permit route but in the end we are glad we did because the inspectors had no issues with our project thanks to the excellent work of Alex and his team. We knew everything was done correctly.

I would have given a higher rating (more stars) except the electrical outlets were not that great in that a lot of the things I tried to plug in would not go in until I filed them smoother while these same plugs would easily plug into 4 other outlets we had installed recently by an electrician friend. For me this is just a "we got what we paid for item". I guess the inspector did not see this as a safety issue but rather an inconvenience issue. So if you do not want this issue be sure to specify you want top quality components and I am sure Alex will price his quote higher to accommodate your request.

Hi John.

Thank you very much for such a wonderful review outlining your experience with HTR Basements. We're glad that you are happy with our team, the process, and the final result. We certainly appreciate your business and your kind words justify our efforts.

The electrical receptacles you are reffering to are TR (Tamper Resistant) receptacles - the shutters inside a Tamper Resistant receptacle will not open and allow access to the contacts unless a two-prong plug is evenly inserted into the outlet. This ensures that hairpins, keys or other common household items children may try to insert into the outlet will be locked out.
This is a safety feature to prevent young children from inserting things in the outlets. If a child tries to insert a metal object (e.g., a key or paper clip) there is a metal shutter that stops the insertion. The shutters only open when force is applied to both sides at the same time. Those outlets are required to be installed as per ESA code.

Thanks again for submitting a review. Enjoy your new basement! If you know anyone else who could use our company, please keep us in mind and have them call 905-754-4696.
Thank you again for your review and for being a valued HTR Basements customer.
Regards,
HTR Basements Team!

We chose HTR Basements to renovate our kitchen

Because of their reputation on HomeStars, we chose HTR Basements to renovate our kitchen, and we could not be happier with the process and end result. It was a terrific experience working with them to meet our functional and aesthetic goals and then working with our project manager on execution. They took the time to address each query, worry, and idea we had, and they didn't stop until we were fully satisfied. Not only that, but we absolutely adore the outcome! They delivered on time and on budget! ।

Very professional and reliable

Very professional and reliable. He came on time for his appointment and was very responsive on texts. He gave a fair estimate - better than the other estimates for a mold problem because of flooding and water damage in my basement. On the day of the job, his two associates came on time, remediated the mold and left the spot clean. I will highly recommend HTR and his crew.

They are really professional

They did an interior basement drain for me a few years ago, because we always have floods in the basement whenever there is a heavy rain. His work proved to be excellent because this year, with the storm and flood everywhere, my basement is dry!!!! So this is a long overdue review for him. Thank you

We had a major basement/home renovation completed by HTR Basements.

We had a major basement/home renovation completed by HTR Basements. This reno consisted of the main floor transformation which required the removal of a structural wall to create an open-concept kitchen, dining room, and living room space. Overall we are extremely happy with the results. All of the team from the designer, and main contractor, to an array of different skilled workers, were very friendly and professional. Our basement/home feels and looks like a new home and so we highly recommend the HTR Basements team.

I had a great experience using HTR Basements

I had a great experience using HTR Basements. I liked that they sent a schedule each week outlining what to expect. The project manager was easy to get in touch with if we ever had any concerns. The basement looks great and I'm excited to start spending time down there.
