Jim and his team are absolute masters of the craft. One chat with jim and I knew he had the experience to restore these 100 plus year old houses in the Annex. Whereas others wanted to go gangbusters and redo all the mortar, Jim said a better result could be had by blending new with old and he was so right ! Check out the before and after pics.

Reach Renovations have just finished tuckpointing the side of our house and stone repair of our front steps. It is one of the best jobs ever done on our house and we have had a lot done. We recommend the company highly. The workmen are skilled, professional and very talented. They will definitely be our choice in the future.

Jim and his crew of Justin, Tony and Jose were great! Jim explained everything in advance on site and was fast with his email responses too.
The crew took their time and were very thorough and professional in all aspects of the project.
I would highly recommend them.

Excellent Work!
Jim was a pleasure to work with from start to finish.
He took a very diligent approach to the project and we appreciated the attention to detail his team displayed during the job.
His team went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and needs.

Very happy with the service we received from Jim. Our home was built in 1878 and they were familiar with the type of brick needed and how to repair safely. Showed up on time and price was reasonable.

Excellent work. Jim was very responsive to an ask for a quote and came onsite quickly to do the job. The result was excellent.

The whole process was hassle-free, quick and a great outcome.

Thanks.

Jim and Tony worked on our home for four days to perform remedial tuck-pointing work. The finished product was beyond our expectations!

Attention to details, great communication as well as the punctuality of each work day was greatly appreciated.

The dedicated workmanship as well as the materials used was truly wonderful as the finished product blends in well with the existing mortar.

My wife and I are in awe as it was Jim who suggested to commence work in March (2021)!!! With temps in the teens, it was great to capitalize on the warm weather to ensure a good curing (drying) time for the repointing work.

Jim is an honest, tentative, and hard working owner who truly takes pride in his (and his crew's) finished product. Jim has a great eye for details. No upsell, no shortcuts, no nonsense, nor funny business, just great humility, great conversation, great insight/advice as well as great work!!

Just remember, reach for the stars and beyond! Reach Restoration, Inc. is truly a league of its own. Thank you Jim and Tony for restoring our home!

It was a pleasure working with Jim right from the start. He popped by to inspect the job, gave me a quote and we made arrangements to do the repair. He and his team showed up on time and completed the job beyond my expectations. They were clean and thorough, taking their time to make sure the work was done correctly. I have more work to do and would never consider calling anyone other than Jim. Highly recommend, you won't be disappointed.

Thanks again to Jim and his team for the exceptional work!

Reach Restoration is an extraordinary company. I worked with Jim and his team. Jim came immediately to look at my issues, explained everything, helped me deal with ceiling leaks as well as a leak through the window. He was honest, reliable, the workers were friendly and skilled, and my house was left in an immaculate condition. I have already recommended this company to two of my friends. You will not be disappointed!

We had Jim (and Reach Restoration) repair our chimney (from the roof upwards) 10 years ago. He did a great job and his work has stood the test of time (thus far). However, we had an issue with our property management company in that Jim wasn't paid in a timely manner. As a result, when tuck pointing was required a few years later, Jim wasn't interested. Instead, we had a different company (also rated well on Homestars) do the tuck pointing at that time.

This time around, I called Jim (and Reach Restorations) again. After assuring Jim that I would be on top of the payments from our property management company, Jim did a ground floor analysis in order to provide quotes. Once the lift was on-site, he was able to do a close-up inspection of the second and third floor brickwork. It turns out that the previous tuck pointing was done using mortar that was too hard (given that our building was built in the 1920s and needed a more lime-rich mortar).

Throughout, Jim was communicative, accommodating, took photographs, and provided fair pricing for the additional work that we requested once the work was underway. His work was well done, the mortar colour match was better than expected, and he went out of his way to accommodate the tenants and neighbours. Entrusting the job to Reach Restoration was the right decision.
