A review for Surrey Cedar Ltd

Had a friend refer me to these guys when talking about needing to put up a fence. (this is before I found Homestars) Went in to talk with the yard manager and he was really good. I gave him basic dimensions on the yard and he was very good about recommending qualities and products. Delivery was on time and quickly unloaded in a convenient spot in my yard as the fence wasn't going in for another week or two. Products were of good quality and pricing was very competitive compared to other quotes I received.

A review for Apex Kitchen Concepts Ltd

Had them install kitchen cabinets in our basement suite. The cabinets went in crooked, had streaks all over them and white glue marks down the edges. They came out to have a look and said they their production facility must have varnished them with a dirty rag and there wasn't much they could do to fix it. Suggested using Black Gold to keep them shiny which was basically like putting Pledge all over them which got rid of the streaks but made them look greasy. Believe it or not when they installer came in to address the glue marks along the edges he pulled out a Sharpie marker to cover up the white marks. Fast forward a year later and multiple emails back and forth they are finally coming out to replace the cabinets. They beyond terrible at returning calls so don't expect much from these guys. They also started suggesting up upgrade the cabinets as the ones the would have to replace would still have glue marks on them as they don't make a glue adhesive. (why sell these in the first place then?) I was told by the owner they would come by July 9th to replace the doors. I took the day off work and they called me an hour after they were supposed to show up and said they weren't coming today. Couldn't get a hold of them for a month then they were coming out Aug 10th. Took the day off work and they never shows again. Called me two days later to see when they could come out and they said they forgot about the other days.

A review for Legendary Developments Ltd

They say hindsight is 20/20 and I wouldn't buy a doghouse from these guys. Every contractor they used on the project used the absolute cheapest quality materials and workmanship possible. Corners were cut anywhere and everywhere to save money. I should have know from the site sign they had on the development site that had their own company name spelled wrong. I ended up buying from them based on promises of quality and seeing a house they had completed in Cloverdale that was quite well done. (turns out they came in halfway through the job so it wasn't all them) Also there were no other properties in the South Surrey neighbourhood offering coach homes at the time. My list of deficiencies after completion was about 7 pages long. Cracked, missing and crooked tiles. Mismatched tiles missing doors crooked cabinets fridge installed in such a way that one of the doors wouldn't open unless you pull the fridge out broken faucets and toilet seats beyond poor paint work crooked walls and windows This is just a small list of things that need work. They came out to fix some minor work over the course of the year. Minor painting, cleaning atrocious grout work. But many on the things that in my estimation would cost more that $50 to fix they simply ignored. I had to get National Home Warranty involved which was a whole other PITA and they finally came out to get some more of the larger jobs done like replacing tile. They ended up doing more damage to the surrounding tile work to the point where I just wanted them to stop and leave. I am sure I could do a better job myself and I have NEVER tiled. I'm two years into this place and still fighting to have work completed. Of the six houses they completed in South Surrey four have had issues and problems similar to mine. The other two I haven't heard from to know. Again the quality and pride of workmanship was some of the poorest I have ever seen and I would not be doing business with them again.....ever
