Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

Our names are Andrew and Tracey and we hired Calgary General Contractors to renovate our Kitchen. We had not hired CGC before and overall it was a very good experience. I had done a lot of research for building companies and went onto HomeStars and found it very helpful and CGC scores were quite high. When contacting the company Claudia was very positive and helpful, when I gave my budget she was honest, she came round with someone else and they gave me confidence and made me feel comfortable this was important as I was the sole person dealing with all the renovations. The favourite part of the renovation was seeing my kitchen in stages, and also having a progress report on chatter. I had actually changed my renovation date to sooner due to travel and they was very accommodating and assured me that it would be done, so delay wise not much, maybe one criticism was that the tradesmen worked quite late without notifying me. Any issues were dealt with via e-mail a lot of time, and were answered promptly with as much info as I needed. The most important objective was that my layout was correct as it was quite unusual. Another objective was to stay on budget, which we did. CGC seemed reasonable and didn't make me feel like my budget was not enough, they were very enthusiastic and we liked how many people were involved in the process. I would definitely choose CGC to do another project, overall the experience was good and I felt comfortable.
