John Mason in Guildwood

Company owner, John Pelleschi, and his team of electricians carefully rewired the main floor of our home. He replaced the old wires, ungrounded plugs and the series of fuse boxes with a modern and expanded electrical panel. John carefully replaced and repositioned many of the wall plugs, installed LED ceiling lights in our halls, living and dining rooms, plus added dimmers to all the switches. He took great care in "fishing" new wires through our walls and ceiling with minimal damage to the baseboards and structure. John also hardwired our home for Internet service and land-line phones. The work was done with minimal disruption and dust! John also provided his professional advice on locations for lights and switches and plugs that was invaluable. As a bonus, John worked extremely cooperatively with the other trades professionals who were also working throughout our home. I'm looking forward to having John return for our next round of renovations - bathroom, kitchen and re-wiring our garage.

We had to fix a worn out lock quickly before Christmas. The repairman arrived as scheduled. Before he began replacing the problem he asked about other locks. That reminded me of an old door lock that also need replacing. I'm very pleased that he fixed both locks and made it easier to use them. My only negative comment was the time required was longer than I expected so the labour charge was slightly higher than I expected. The repairman was thorough in his work and was very eager to please. I'd definitely recommend this company to others and certainly use them again.

I had a lot of junk after cleaning out my garage. I bought a discounted coupon from Groupon for 1-800-Rid-Of-It. I then booked the pick-up time and looked forward to getting rid of all the stuff in my driveway. Imagine my surprise when the truck arrived and I learned that the pre-paid pick-up only covered about one-quarter of the stuff I wanted picked up! I ended up paying more than $50 extra to get rid of about half the stuff. Much of the junk I had was relatively light in weight, but required a lot of space - like old plastic lawn furniture and plastic signs I didn't want to pay more than $130 for the garbage disposal, so I had to put the remaining stuff back in my yard. I later packed up much of the left-over stuff in garbage bags which the city eventually picked up over the next couple of weeks. I used extra garbage tags to get those bags picked up by the city. I wasn't impressed with the small load that 1-800-Rid-of-It actually carted away. When I told the driver this, he explained about the cost of tipping fees and the time private garbage haulers have to wait at city transfer stations. Anyway, I wouldn't recommend using this firm.

All work was done extremely professionally. This was a sudden job after we found a leak in our basement. Mark at Blue Circle gave us a quote, outlined the work and made sure the job was done exactly as promised - on time and with top notch quality. His crew worked hard, arrived as scheduled and were very neat and polite. After the work was done, our yard was left in better condition than before. My wife and I really appreciate how well the work was done and how it was completed before Christmas.
