A review for All Siding Inc
I found all siding by just talking to them as they were doing another job down the street. They provided a quote to me within a few days by e-mail (I like quotes by email), but then didn't respond to my affirmation that I wanted the job done by e-mail. I ended up having to call them. The job was done well and, despite taking a little longer that expected as they were working on other projects, it looks good. I had to ask them to finish off a couple of details that should have been taken care of, but apart from that we were happy with the project.

A review for Mayday Drain Services
Adding to the great reviews here... I found Roy here on Homestars and he completely lived up to the reputation of all the other reviewers here. Helpful, knowledgeable, reasonably priced, and just plain good.

A review for Plumber 4 U
Plumber 4 U, or Peter, did the plumbing rough-in for our new house. It was poor workmanship, pipes not attached properly, some leaks, and in our powder room he even connected hot water to all the roughed in pipes, hot, cold vanity connections and the toilet. We asked for 3/4" pipe through the house to the second floor which he almost did, except he didn't replace the pipe to the hot water heater, leaving that the 1/2" pipe that was there. At the end of the rough-in job I agreed to let him attach a few end points, 4 short simple jobs, and he ended up charging 18 hours labour for the job, far too expensive for some short projects that should have taken a single professional plumber maybe an hour per job. Finally, one of those jobs was installing the shower fixture, for which he didn't put in air cushions to eliminate some shreek in the pipes. While I don't mean to be mean, I've so far had so many good trades, but this plumber, while a nice guy, wasn't particularly good as a plumber.

A review for Bin There Dump That
Bin There Dump That. Funny name, and great service. After not expecting much from a dumpster company they came through with great service, and for 5 dumpsters. They dealt with some parking issues, and odd timing with no problem at all. Billing was fair and reasonable.

A review for Accord Roofing
We were looking for roofing for a couple of newly built shed roofs for the back of our house. Ricardo came and offered his very knowledgeable opinion on how to properly roof and also deal with the seams to our neighbours house in our abutting houses. Accord was not only the best price, but also the roofer who we knew really knew how to do the job properly. It's still new so we assume it's not going to leak, but we're assure that they back up their work.

A review for York Associates
When one goes to listen to a home inspection one wants to hear the plain truth. And Alex Welsh gives it to you. Yes, it made us think a little harder on our purchase, but we understood the issues much better than we did before. His clear, laymen's language provided us the information we needed to assess what the problems were in the home we were buying and allowed us to make an informed choice. Would absolutely recommend.
