R in Toronto

This is a review for the repair work Ronald has completed for me roughly 2-3 months ago. My eavestrough was partially damaged by the weather, and I also needed my downpipe disconnected from the city sewer, with my existing down-spouts extended. Sensational Roofing was recommended to me by another company with great reviews on HomeStars. Ronald responded promptly and provided a reasonable quote for the work after assessing the damage. Although my eavestrough was of an older type, Ron was able to find the parts required and repaired my eavestrough the next day. Ronald also performed a general inspection of my roof while he was on the roof. I am very happy with the overall experience and Ronald's workmanship. Should the need arise, I will definitely ask for Sensational roofing's service again.

Winford Windows was recommended to me through Marvin Windows, the manufacturer of Infinity fibreglass windows, as their certified dealer/installer for a whole-house window retrofit replacement. The company's owner, Dixon, is courteous and knowledgeable. We discussed various window layouts based on aesthetics, security, and the ability to enhance natural ventilation in my home. Once I've settled on a scheme I am happy with, Dixon was able to provide a detailed quote on the next day based on rough measurements. After the quote was accepted, I was introduced to Chris, the foreman of Winford's installation crew. Chris carefully measured each window opening for ordering the windows, explained the installation in detail, and discussed any potential issues he foresees to minimize possible surprises on installation date. On the date of installation, the crew arrived within the stated time frame. The crew is professional - they worked fast and carefully with great workmanship. Each window is shimmed & leveled properly; air-vapour barriers and gaps sealed with spray foam for air tightness; flashing caps are properly installed with drip edge. The crew were also able to mill custom trim pieces on site for 3 of the windows required new trims. The crew worked from 9am to 8pm to complete the entire installation: 8 window openings/12 glazed units, within one day. They also cleaned up the site after installation, including the disposal of all old windows. The windows have been installed for about 2 months now and I am extremely pleased with both the product and Winford's service. There have not been a single drop of condensation on these windows, and the hardware are very easy to operate. I highly recommend Winford to other homeowners interested in a window replacement project.

I was referred to Mags by another highly rated contractor for the installation of a tankless water heater. Mags is very knowledgeable, honest, and courteous. After a quick but careful study of my existing mechanical system, Mags provided a soundly explained recommendation that is specific to my need on-the-spot, without trying to sell me a more costly system that has no economic or functional benefits in my case. Despite a difficult installation due to tight space and weather, Mags and his team were cheerful and friendly the whole time, and demonstrated his resourcefulness as he resolved any unexpected site conditions we encounted. As he was working, Mags also explained carefully what he was doing, why he was doing it, and answered any questions that I had. After the installation was completed, they cleaned up the site better than it was. Mags always responded promptly - from my very first call, to when I have operating questions long after the installation. The tankless has been running smoothly for a couple of months now, and I am equally happy with the job Mags did to thoroughly clean the boiler before winter. Mags has displayed great dedication and value in his work - I will absolutely recommend Mags's service to other homeowners
