JC / GTA

We discovered the side of our garden bed under the shed dug out and a neighbour informed us that they had seen two skunks emerging from under the shed. Boris was friendly and so patient with answering my questions. He was able to come within a few days to set up a one-way trap for the skunks to get out, and came back a few days later to install mesh along the side/under the shed so that nothing could burrow back in. He was also able to give some advice on some other problem areas and I appreciated his knowledge and recommendations on these things. Would recommend!

As others have said, Illiya had the best quote but not subpar work! I had originally wanted to have one of our big old maple trees trimmed back as it was about to touch the house. He was friendly and patient with answering my questions. We ended up having Illiya prune both trees back and they look great. (He said it would take ~5 years to grow back to the house.) Clean up was reasonably good though we have a landscaped backyard so I think it was hard for him to get all the fallen branches from behind shrubs and flowers, though the majority of it was taken care of. Overall, I am very happy with his work and would recommend him.

We found out that the space above our family room/garage had a very low amount of batting insulation (R10 I think) so we looked around for quotes for pump-in insulation for approximately 600 square feet. Mas Air quoted the best price for the basic filling and baffles that we wanted. They were friendly and efficient and were able to schedule us in about a week after initial contact (and on a weekend day too), which was great as some others we talked to were booking a few months out. They filled the insulation in to R60 level and we can feel the difference in air temperature in the family room right away. They did a reasonably good job with the clean up though there was still a few bits of fibreglass floating around but easy enough to shop vac that ourselves. They are also an honest company - somehow we accidentally transferred them the balance owing twice, and they were the ones who brought it to our attention and returned the money. Would highly recommend!

Two sections of my fence and a post got knocked sideways in a windstorm. GTA Grizzly was very prompt in answering my questions and was able to come out and reinstall the post in concrete, reattach existing panels and a new lattice decorative top within two days, at a very reasonable price. The lattice work is slightly different than the existing one but it is a very close match so it doesn’t bother me. So far so good! Would recommend!

I would recommend City Roofing in a heartbeat - Peter and his crew are professional, treat potential customers with friendliness and respect, and are experts in their field. I moved into an older home and water started leaking through my second floor ceiling at an alarming rate, a few days after a big rainstorm. I called about half a dozen roofing companies in my area and Peter was the only one who promptly returned my call (within a few hours - others either took a few days to call me back, or not at all). He was able to come out the next morning to assess and give me a quote for replacing the upper roof. He showed me some photos of my roof and explained what he saw as issues (which were consistent with another roofer who came once but then never called me back). He was then able to fit me in fairly soon afterwards and completed the work in a day. I recently thought that our lower roof had a leak and Peter again came out promptly to assess the situation, even though it didn’t end up needing any work. I would highly recommend City Roofing.
