Quality Restorations and Renovations

We hired Quality Restorations Co. initially to do the stone work on a small addition we added to the rear of our home. The crew were excellent and the job was finished very quickly. We were extremely satisfied with the quality of the work. When it came time to do some other renovation work around the house, we did not hesitate to contact them again.
The later project included finishing details in our basement (install laundry room cabinets, closet doors throughout basement, trim, level an office floor and other misc finishing details). We also had them completely renovate our living room. They installed bamboo hardwood floors, made custom built-in cabinets and built a beautiful fireplace mantel, in addition to all the drywall, painting and trim. The job was expanded when we noticed a very old leak in our masterbathroom. They took on this job (very last minute) and completely renovated the bathroom. The crew were working on every level of our home while we still lived there and they were very respectful and courteous the entire time.
Doug was great to work with and was always very easy to reach. If we had any questions or concerns during the project he addressed them right away.
Overall we were extremely satisfied with the work and would highly recommend them to anyone considering a home renovation.

I called Quality Restorations in as one of three companies to look at the chimney and masonry of the sixty year old home I purchased over the summer. The west side of my home had lost over 50% of the mortar, the chimney of my wood burning fireplace was crumbling and the firebrick in my fireplace was loose. Doug came to give me a quote. His knowledgeable, no nonsense approach made me instantly assured that he was the man for the job. I received a detailed written quote by email within days and all the repairs were completed in the same efficient manner.

Quality Restorations is real class act. We just moved to Toronto and bought an older house that needed a lot of work done on it. Doug Pearse the manager was a treat to deal with - knowledgeable, friendly and he just oozes experience and credibility. Doug has his own workers and also contracts with other companies. All of the workers that showed up were professional and did excellent work. And they cleaned up everything at the end of every day! A roofer came in behind the brick workers and said that the chimney they rebuilt was one of the best he's seen. I know that Doug had a lot of other bigger jobs at the same time and yet he treated our little job like it was the only one he had going on. I would highly recommend Quality Restorations and will definitely use them for just about anything I need doing in the future.

We needed to do some updating on our home which is over 60 years old.
I found Quality Restorations on this site and I'm glad I did. Doug Pearse was very helpful in explaining what was the work to be done and guiding us to making the right decisions so that we would be happy with the end result.
Michael & Dominic who did most of the work were excellent and very patient with our constant questions - not to mention a few changes.
Also, having received competitive quotes, I would say that Quality Restoration's prices are reasonable.
Excellent work - would definitely use this company again for any other significant project.

We had a large job of full restoration on a 1908 Riverdale home (old, dirty brick, but made from the Toronto Brick Works). Three stages: brick cleaning, 2-3 weeks restoration and replacement work, eaves installment. All done professionally, on time and with exceptional results - 3 separate work teams. After the dusty brick work, they fully washed down our neighbour's home and scrubbed their front porch - real class act here. Our brick work and home look beautiful thanks to Doug Pearse and his teams. One of his top experts (Mike) then came in and designed a really creative solution to a drainage problem on a flat back roof, designing a unique copper drainage solution. Costs were always fair and reasonable.

Crumbling chimney needed a complete rebuild, other contractors were giving ridiculous estimates and excuses claiming the job was too difficult. We called Quality Restorations got reasonable estimate and decided to go with them and it paid off as they were worth every penny. They showed up on the agreed upon date and within two days were finished leaving us with a quality chimney and no mess left behind.

I had Quality Restorations do some tuckpointing on a long stone wall that rises up from my foundation. Doug did the estimate right away and offered a good rate for the work. I am very happy with the work that they did, including some additional work requested at the last minute. Due to a mis-communication, some of the additional work did not meet my expectations. Within a few days' they were back on site, to complete the wortk, no questions asked. My only quibble with them is that I was initially told that the work would be complete in about 3-4 weeks; it was more like 7 and then they showed up with no advance warning, as I had requested.

Doug Pearse and company were fantastic. They were prompt, tidy and very reasonable. They parged the base of my old home to save the bricks. I would happily recommend them.

We hired Quality Restorations to repair our chimney and brick walls.

They showed up when they said they would, cleaned up after they were
done and unlike other contractors, charged exactly what they said were going to charge.

Having seen other poorly done brick repair jobs, I was especially impressed with the way they matched the mortar colour and texture exactly - you would never know it it hadn't always looked the way it does now - they really live up to their name! It was a "quality restoration".

When I needed new front steps and driveway stonework restoration, Quality Restorations provided timely advice and a quote they met, and got the job done to my satisfaction. Professional workmanship, and attention to detail got them my recommendation.
