I had to make my old, lived-in Victorian house look good before I sold it. Some rooms hadn't been painted in years, and the paint on the interior doors was a mess. It was a big job. But Kyle and his Sharrison team were amazing. They were polite, accommodating and arrived on time, did great work and for a reasonable price. They also retrofitted light fixtures, bought bulbs and got rid of a wasp nest -- all above and beyond what they were hired to do. I can't recommend them highly enough.

I initially hired Rent-a-Son to clean up my garden and move some boxes into a storage locker. The Son who cleaned the garden kept cleaning even though it started to drizzle with rain and did a great job. The storage-locker Sons offered to do any other job I needed because they hadn't worked the full time that was budgeted. Many other companies would have charged the hours that were quoted and left early. So when I moved, I was completely confident in hiring Rent-a-Son to pack up my possessions, which included a lot of fragile art and china. They did an amazing job, as did the Sons who came the next day to move everything into their own storage space until my new place became available. I can't praise Rent-a-Son highly enough. All the Sons were punctual and worked steadily -- no coffee breaks. They had a lunch break but I wasn't charged for that time. And if all this isn't recommendation enough, every single one of them was friendly (though always respectful), cheerful and helpful beyond the bounds of the contract. For example, they kindly moved a large item from the third to first floor and also helped me load up my car. All this with smiles and "No problem!" I have been recommending them to all my friends, for both small and large jobs. And no, I don't have shares in the company or know anyone there! Remember that the cost I've had to enter above constitutes a LOT of work, materials and time. Try them out. You'll be delighted. --JL, Toronto

I was hugely impressed by all the Lux people I encountered. They were friendly, dedicated, professional and, most importantly, did amazing work. Their attention to detail was astonishing. One of the team even helped me move a table out of the kitchen, which was above and beyond the call of duty! I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again.
