After several handymen tried to fix our recroom pot light, which wouldn’t stay on, Blue Electric came in and fixed it right away. Great service! I will definitely be calling Blue Electric for any future electrical work I need done. Thank you!

Metro Plumbing and Drains Services was hired to come into my home to replace galvanized piping. They said that I would be responsible for repairing the drywall afterwards. I agreed. After the work was done I had HVAC people in to look at some other work that needed to be done and they discovered that the plumber had made a large cut in the ductwork. It was several inches long. There was quite a bit of cold air from the air conditioner blowing through the large cut. I called Metro Plumbing and Drains Services and asked them to pay to have HVAC people repair the cut. They said no, that I was responsible for repairing anything that was damaged after they finished the work I hired them to do. This was not what was agreed upon. I said I would pay to have someone repair the drywall only. The owner and the plumber with both rude and argumentative with me about resolving this issue.

Michael came in and finished a partial bathroom renovation and did it quickly and with a great end result. I'm very happy with his work and will be getting him back for all our other house renovations.

We recently had the misfortunate of using Waterworks. We had booked them to change the bath taps in our bathroom and could only arrange to have them come in the day before the tiles were going to be replaced. As a result, we were rushed and had no choice but to use Waterworks. However, when the installer arrived what followed was a long sales pitch about how the taps we had bought were no good – a brand name from a big box store. We were also given a lesson on how important it is to have a backflow regulator so the cold water doesn’t cut out when a toilet is flushed while in the shower (something I’ve lived with for 50 years and now, somehow, something we can’t live without). But, as a I said, we were facing time constraints we ended up paying $1,400 for the new taps. I estimate the time he spent upselling us was more than the time he spent installing the taps. The next day after checking around, we found out the going rate is about $200 - $400, which means we spent $,1000 more than we should have. To compound matters, when the tile guy came in the next day, he advised us that the taps were set into the wall too far, a fact we confirmed with another plumber we eventually called in to fix them. When we asked Waterworks to please reimburse us $1,000, they said absolutely no. I would never call them in to do work again. They fail on all counts, fair market prices, ability to do the job correctly, and customer service.

Hi Patricia Hornyak
did you show your new plumber the taps you wanted us to install? You failed to mention they cost around $40 or so.He too would have declined the installation if he was LICENSED.They are not approved by the Ontario Building/Plumbing code nor CSA .They were really the lowest grade product I've ever seen with probably no repair parts or support available. I explained to you why you should buy the Moentrol faucet instead.
They are the highest quality with the best support in the industry.Also they would protect you and US from getting burned by the shower.You also failed to mention that you decided 1 month later to change your bath tub to a larger one,which would require us to come out and reinstall the faucet into a different location,Also I did tell you that the faucet had to be installed deeper in the wall and that we have a kit to install the trim which is a Moen part#137347 at no additional cost.I'm really glad you called upon us and I'm sorry you felt dissapointed.It was a pleasure meetingnyou and doing the installation. Cheers,Michael Yuffa
