Full Main Floor Renovation

Tom and his crew really knocked it out of the park for our main floor renovation. The scope of the project included removing two load bearing walls, and moving the kitchen to the dining room. Throughout the process Tom was upfront and very communicative about the changes, options, and how to proceed. The job was done on time, and his crew was very respectful. I would definitely recommend them and will have them do more work in my home.

Second Story Deck

TAG completed the reconstruction of second story deck, which included installing a sub-floor, membrane, and eavestrough to waterproof the porch below. After taking a look at the porch, TAG immediately understood what would be necessary and provided a detailed plan in the quote and contract. TAG looked after all subcontracting (dumpster and roofer). In spite of some understandable pandemic and weather-related delays, the job was completed by the end of the summer and I'm confident the deck will last for many years. Highly recommend TAG for a worry-free experience.

Great quality and nice people

My husband and I hired TAG for a multi-tiered renovation project. We had recently gotten rid of our above-ground pool in the back yard and wanted to install a new deck or a flagstone patio. We also wanted our old deck to be re-stained as well as have the earth by the side of our home angled away to help with a minor, seasonal flooding issue. Tom and his team worked with us to decide on the best approach for our budget and for the space itself. We were very impressed that Tom never tried to push us into a really expensive option or try to add on unnecessary work. Quite the opposite. He was very down to earth and although he laid out all of the possibilities, he advised us that some of the more expensive ones were probably not worth the extra money given our goals and that we would probably be just as happy with a mid-range estimate plans. He also took the time to explain all of the subsequent work and costs that each option would bring us in the future. (in terms of upkeep) The team was also very professional and were very considerate of our tenants and their safety during covid. My tenants had nothing but good things to say about them. The quality of their work is excellent and we couldn’t be happier with the end result. There were also some adjustments and add-ons that we wanted to make along the way and the team was very accommodating and quick to adapt. The work was finished in great time and was extremely well done. We will definitely be working with them again in the future and would have no problems recommending them to our friends. Thank you to the whole team!

Landscaping Project

We hired TAG for a landscaping job as they have done other projects for us and always do an excellent job. Once again, we are really pleased with the outcome of this job by the professional, well organized and friendly TAG team. We highly recommend TAG and will hire them again for any future projects.

Full house renovation

I hired TAG to help me complete an entire renovation of my first investment property.

To start Tom worked with me for several months to help put together the best plan and budget that helped meet my goals. Once this was completed he took a deposit which was one of the biggest differences between him and other contractors.

Once we began the job there were a few obstacles that came up and he presented various options that ranged to help solve it. One thing I can say is he was HONEST throughout this process. Once we overcame these it was smooth throughout the rest of the project.

My job included the following work from Tom. Finishing the basement. Redoing 2 bathrooms and adding a 3rd new bathroom. Installing new laminate flooring and finishing the existing hardwood. Installing kitchen backslash. Updating electrical in the entire house. New stairs. New carpet on all my stairs. Removal of wall. Replacing doors in the house. This included most of the major work he did.

Areas of improvement: Tom’s subcontract for painting did not do a great job however Tom’s crew came back and fixed it. The after job clean up was a little slow but was eventually completed.

Overall I was extremely satisfied with the work TAG completed. Tom delivered a finished product that exceeded me expectation within the agreed upon time frame.

I have put some photos below. Please note I was working with a professional designer to complete the renovation which was extremely helpful and was well worth it.

Basement Ceiling Project

We first knew TAG from their excellent work on our house that had severe damage from the September 2018 tornado in Ottawa. TAG was hired by the general contractor employed through our condo corporation for the tear-down and rebuild of the interior of our house. Over the many months the TAG team worked on our home, we learned from the outset that this is a high quality and reliable company at affordable prices with professional, highly skilled tradesmen and courteous employees.

We were so impressed with TAG that we hired them to replace part of our basement ceiling and add some pot lights. The owner Tom met with us initially to discuss the job, timeframe and cost estimate. The job came in on time and budget. Tom came for a walk-through once the job was completed to ensure everything was done as discussed. Once again, we are extremely pleased with their work.

It is a pleasure working with Tom and his TAG team. Special thanks for all the excellent work by Derek and Drew who were responsible for much of the work done in our house. We regularly recommend TAG for jobs to others and also highly recommend them on this website. We look forward to seeing TOM and his TAG team this spring for a landscaping project.

Deck/patio Installation and Driveway widening

The wife and I wanted to create an outdoor space that we could use to host friends during the summer/spring (wooden deck and stone patio). Tom worked with our irregular backyard shape, budget and created something that exceeded expectations. Due to how satisfied we were was with the backyard project, the following year I had them back to widen our single lane driveway so that it could fit a second vehicle. What I thought was functionality (saving me from playing musical cars on the daily) ended up being more; as it really added curb appeal to a cookie cutter home.

I've hired several contractors in the Ottawa area for odds and ends BUT none have come close to the professional standards that Tom and his team bring consistently.
