Repair Cedar Deck
A review for Big A Renos
I contacted Allan at Big A Renos to come quote on a repair job for my back deck. Called three other firms and only one other came. The quote I received from the first company was $600 plus materials ($200) and tax. Allan did the job for $480, all materials and taxes included. He was quick and cleaned up after himself, and even took away the old deck, which the other company said was my problem, as it was too small a job for a bin. The work was well done and I am very happy with the result. Quick, clean and reasonably priced. You have to like that.

A review for Finer Edge Painting & Improvements
These guys were great. The quote was competitive and they were professional in every way. I asked them to do some extra work and they did it without asking any questions and they even re-painted some trim work when I noticed that the first coat was the wrong shade. They were meticulously clean with their work and left our home as they found it every day of a 4 day job. I will call them again the next time I need any paint work done.

A review for Y.D.I. Stone Repairing Company
Evgeni came to our home to seal and repair a few chips in a new Quartzite counter-top and island. When the block was cut, the sides were not as shiny as the top, because the top of the slab was polished at the site with special equipment that is not reproducible in the fabrication process. Despite this, Y.D.I Stone came to our home and did a spectacular job putting a polish on our counter-top and island. He also repaired a few small chips (natural in the stone) and I cannot see the work he did. It looks like it was never chipped at all. He worked diligently and did not leave until I was perfectly happy with the work (and I'm a tough customer!).

A review for Milestone
We looked around the whole GTA for a block of Nacarado Quartz for our kitchen countertop and island and we found the perfect slab at Milestone. They are just down the road from the big guys (CIOT and Tempo) but don't over look them; they have a great inventory of marble, granite and the hard-to-find speciality stone, like the Nacarado Quartzite. We worked with Danielle, who honoured our reservation for the slab so we could get a fabrication quote. The price was very competitive (Ithink much cheaper than Tempo or CIOT) and the countertops are beautiful. You will find them at 8181 Jane St, in Concord, ON. http://www.milestonemarble.com

A review for Cercan Tile Inc
We looked around at probably 15 different tile stores before we walked into Cercan. The showroom was as neat as our own home and they had the best 'designer' tile selection we found. The sales representative who helped us pick our backsplash tile knew all the products on display very well and was extremely helpful in guiding us toward our final choice, which was a 4" x 4" tumbled Honey Onyx tile, which she suggested could be enhanced to make the colour really stand out by the application of a special sealer that I could apply myself. All in all, I wish we went here first!

A review for The Kitchen Technician
We hired Dave to help with the renovation of our kitchen. As the general contractor, Dave was responsible for removing the old kitchen cabinets and flooring, relocating the plumbing, electrical lighting and outlets and laying the new floor. He also had to do the installation of the appliances and lighting fixtures.

A review for Cameo Fine Cabinetry
We decided on Cameo kitchens to design and manufacture our kitchen because we had used them 20 years ago and had a good experience then. Our designer, Marcella, was very prompt to design a new kitchen for us and she had some very good design ideas that we had not thought of. The best idea was an extension to our island with a pull out shelf, that added 30" to the island, which was really terrific and a great idea. The cabinets arrived as promised, within 8 to 10 weeks after ordering and the installation crew, headed by Juan, was great. They showed up early every day and worked late, to ensure that our kitchen was installed in the shortest amount of time possible. We are very happy with our choice. Our designer was available whenever we needed her and the cabinets look beautiful.

A review for The Tile Technicians
Clint started to lay our 220 sq ft kitchen floor at 10:30am and completed the job by 5:30pm, the same day. He came the next morning to complete the grouting work. I was worried about the job before he started because of the large size of the tiles he had to work with. I actually thought I might have made a mistake by purchasing such a large tile. The work he did around the two entrances to the kitchen are my favourite feature of the new floor. Now that the cabinets are in, the 20" tiles look great and the choice was obviously the right one. Clint did a great job and I'm very happy to give him a good recommendation.
