Our furnace didn't come on when we started it up for the season. Our call was answered immediately by Richard who sent Eric out within a couple of hours to do a quick fix. Even though the furnace was now working, Richard replaced the part (on warranty) within a few days so we could be totally confident that all was well for the upcoming heating system. Always the same prompt efficient service since Core Temp installed our furnace 8 years ago.

We woke up this morning with no heat in the house. We called Richard at 7:30 a.m. and it was repaired by 10:30 a.m., which is a very quick response time. The part required and the labour were at no cost to us due to warranty coverage. A customer cannot expect more than this!

Yesterday afternoon, I noticed the furnace had conked out. I phoned Richard and he answered immediately. Since I was able to give him the service code displayed on the furnace, he was able to diagnosis the problem, order the part and have it installed with the furnace fixed and pumping out heat by 8:00 this morning. Can't beat that service!

Our furnace was red tagged on a Friday by another company conducting routine maintenance and we were told the part was not available for at least another 2 weeks (which we verified to be true). We consulted Homestars and chose CoreTemp to help us. Richard and Eric arrived the same afternoon, discussed options and we decided to go ahead with the installation of a new furnace which they completed on the following Monday. We are extremely fussy and nervous clients at the best of times; Richard answered all of our questions and concerns with patience and clarity and relieved any anxiety we were feeling (rather a large purchase to make a decision on so quickly). Both he and Eric completely the job neatly and promptly. Special thanks to Janice at the office to helped us with the OPA rebate.

Nobody likes to have workman in your home, making noise and causing disruption. However, Oborne Contracting is the way to go if you want to minimize the headaches associated with any reno job. This was a relatively small job for them, but they worked with us to ensure that the end result was what we wanted. We now have a wonderfully functional laundry room and plenty of out-of-sight storage in the back room. We now can't remember the way it used to be!

This was the second job we hired Drainworks to do. As before, they were timely, efficient, extremely neat and very personable, especially Mike Dunn and the crew supervisor, Walter. We have recommended Drainworks to others and will continue to do so.

Snow on my mother-in-law's garage roof was melting quickly during a a warm spell this past winter and water was flowing down the inside wall and then down into the basement, flooding everywhere. Gable Roofing came within hours, shovelled the snow off the roof and dug trenches in the remaining ice to permit run off. They then sealed along the flashing for a temporary and effective repair until they could return when the weather was better (within a matter of weeks) and replace the gararge roof. Their prompt response in an emergency situation is unparalleled. They put my elderly mother-in-law at ease with calm and helpful workers and their workmanship is excellent. The cost was reasonable and fair. I can't say enough about this company.

My hot water heater had an incorrectly installed connection that corroded over time. Michael ordered the replacement parts and fixed it promptly. No fuss, no muss! Very approachable and answered all of my questions. Will definitely hire again.
