Front landscape

I highly recommend this company. I hired them to completely gut and redo my entire front steps, walkway and large retaining wall. They were recommended by a friend so they were prequalified. They were very fair with their pricing (we got 4 quotes). The job was completed exactly as discussed within the timeframe we agreed to. Most important was their impressive communication. I dont recall more than 1 hour going by without getting a response when needed. Hiring a crew who communicates effectively is a must. There were a couple of minor adjustments at the end and they came swiftly to attend to them. They will show up even after they have been paid in full. I appreciate their hard work. Thank you.

Remodelled exterior of our home.

Thrilled we decided to give our jobs to Matt and Joel at The Right Way. We bundled 3-4 jobs in to one very fair price. The team installed a new walkway, gave us new retaining walls, restored and replaced brick walls and laid a stone overlay on the dated and worn out concrete steps to our front door. People have not stopped complimenting the new look. We left the companys sign on the lawn an extra month as token of our appreciation. Three others we know of on the street have already given work to The Right Way as a result.
I esp appreciated the fast and courteous responses for each and every inquiry. Communication was next level.
Recommend you get your project looked at by Matt and Joel. Rising stars in the trade.

Small demolition job

This company responded quickly to a Home Stars search. One of the principals, - Matt- came to the site, was courteous, and gave a reasonable quote. They were able to complete the demolition job thoroughly, quickly, and to my surprise left my property spotless. Matt brought a no nonsense, professional and hard working crew to this job. This is one of the few occasions where I have ever been completely satisfied with the work of a contractor or trade.

Driveway Repair

I found the company from Home Star for my driveway repair and resurfacing in summer 2023. The job was left unfinished citing weather reasons. By early 2024 the repair and the top layer started to peel off badly. I contacted the owner Matt who promised that they would come back to get it done in summer time. After more follow ups, Matt and his team came back in September, power washed the chips, and applied 2 more top layers of granite grip. Matt also advised they wod address any further issues down the road.

Stay away from this company!

A Cautionary Tale I hired The Right Way Foundations based on the seemingly positive reviews, but my experience was nothing short of a disaster. I engaged Matt and Joel to complete several tasks: painting kitchen cabinets, ceilings in two rooms, walls in two rooms and the kitchen, and sanding and staining the deck. What I received was a nightmare. Kitchen Cabinets: The cabinets were supposed to be painted white, but instead, they were covered in yellow stains, with visible roller marks all over. The finish was sloppy and unprofessional. Ceiling: Despite multiple attempts, Matt and Joel couldn't properly paint the ceiling. They kept promising they could fix it, but every attempt made it worse. After four failed attempts, they left, blaming the issues on humidity in my house. I had to hire someone else to redo the ceiling entirely. Wall Painting: The walls were poorly painted as well, with overlapping paint on the ceilings and walls, uneven lines by the baseboards, and paint drips on adjacent walls. It was a mess. Deck: Instead of sanding the deck as agreed, they opted to power wash it and then paint it. The wooden planks were chipped, and I specifically told them to sand it first. They assured me they would but didnt. Now, the deck is so rough that walking barefoot is out of the questionyou risk getting splinters. When I reached out to Matt to express my dissatisfaction, he was dismissive and blamed the poor quality of work on the "humidity" in my house. He even suggested that my cooking caused the yellow stains on the cabinets, despite the fact that my family wasnt home during that time. When I asked for a refund to cover the cost of fixing their mess, I was met with excuses. In the end, this experience has cost me more time, money, and stress than I ever anticipated. If you value quality and professionalism, I strongly urge you to stay away from GTA Painting. They don't know what they are doing and will leave you with a bigger problem than you started with. Save yourself the headache and find someone else!

Hello Tanya, we received your concerns and we were willing and offering to come inspect and fix any issues you had. You rushed us out of your house for a trip you had to go on when we told you we would come back when you arrived back at home to address any problems. If you paid someone to repaint the ceiling we provided a $2500 discount on the job to cover those expenses so you didn't have to loose money. We didn't use any yellow paint throughout the whole job so we offered to have an on-site meeting to inspect the cabinets to see what had happened. Before you left you were very pleased with the cabinets and you will not let us come back to see in person demanding your money back. Clearly there is a problem if you wouldn't let us rectify the issues or at least have an on-site visit to see things in person.

We offered to come fix the deck and inspect cabinets even after providing the $2500 discount.

We are always willing to address concerns and fix issues in our work.

Front Steps Repair

This company was recommended by a friend and they did not disappoint. Matt and his team were friendly, accommodating and reasonable. He brought by several samples of stone, wasn't pushy and really worked to support our budget. I would definitely use them again.

Backyard Patio

We had an outdated backyard and needed a bit of a refresh. We had some friends over and they mentioned they had hired the right way before. We reached out to them and within a couple days they were able to give us an estimate. They did not pressure us and had great ideas so we chose them do handle our project. They were fair, punctual and their entire team came with great energy. We had a great experience with this company and would hire them again.

Repair of plaster walls and ceilings

Rebuild of front garden/porch/walkway

Matt, Joel and their team did a great job for us. They worked diligently and we were very impressed with their frequent communication with us and their strong work ethic. Even when we were faced with some unexpected challenges, they quickly acknowledged our concerns and rectified issues immediately, resulting in an excellent work/project completion. We still have a couple of small additions to make to the project, but have no doubt that once done, the entire work that we planned will be to more than our satisfaction. Thank you to the entire team!
