My spouse called Chris and he came the next day in the morning. He measured our gutters and explained the process and answered all of my questions. Our guttters were approximately 28 years old, so it was time to replace them. His crew came out the next day and installed new black gutter, downspouts and leaf guard on all the gutters. The crew was clean and respectful and answered questions when we thought to ask them. I would definately recommend them for gutter replacement.

We needed our 27 year old garage door replaced. My neighbour had one and I liked it. I called Smart Garage and Will came out a couple of days later. He explained everything and measured our garage for the door. He gave us an estimate and the said it would take three weeks for the door to be made and installed. We went ahead with it and the door was installed yesterday and looks really sharp. The installers arrived on time at 07:30 and it took them a couple of hours to install the new door and take away the old one. Another main factor in choosing this door as I am a smaller female and opening this door if the power goes out will be easy compared to the old wood door that I could not open alone manually. This door is a lot quieter than the old door and the new key fobs are a lot nicer than the old ones and less clunky. Update: The installed seal is peeling off the outside of the garage door. They came and fixed it no problem.

The contractors came and changed out the furnace to a high efficiency Ameristar. They also changed out the old hot water tank with a new one. Both Adrian and his partner were polite and extremely patient with explaining how to use the furnace and how to change check and change the filter. The work they did was exceptional as they also fixed a previous contractors screw up. I would hire them again anytime and will call them for any further required maintenance.

After the windstorm in August 2015, our old back yard fence blew down and we needed it re-done. My spouse and I chose Revive as the owner Rob DeVries was very responsive with calling us back upon initial phone contact, came out and gave us an estimate within a reasonable amount of time and answered all of our questions without any problem at all We had the fencing materials delivered to our house one week before Rob started the job, so we could paint the fence panels and the posts as they are much easier to paint before hand than afterwards. Rob was easy to work with and facilitated our request with no problems. He build us a beautiful backyard fence that will last for years as he used sturdy materials to build it. Rob and his assistant worked through a really bad rainstorm two days in a row to get our fence done on the day he promised. We were impressed with is work ethic and determination to get the job done on time. If you need a fence built, I would not hesitate to recommend Rob as he is honest, hardworking, and builds fences that will last.

When we bought our house the old shingles needed to be replaced as the roof was in rough shape. We obtained many quotes, but decided to hire Trevor and his crew. We were glad we did as they did the re-roofing conversion from old shingles to asphalt and they did a very professional job. Trevor was always available to answer any questions we had and he helped us pick our new asphalt shingle colour as well. He did the job for us in 2010 and five years later, the roof still looks great and we have had no issues! If you need your roof done for a reasonable cost, give Trevor a call and you will be glad that you did.

Went to open my garage door one day and it would only open one inch. I saw a sticker on the bottom of my garage door opener and saw that the Garage Door Depot had installed it as they sub contract for Sears. I also checked Home Stars and saw that the Garage Door Depot had excellent reviews. I called them and tried to explain the problem and the lady on the phone was great with my lack of knowledge. She promised to call me back and did so within a couple of hours. She explained that the spring on the door was most likely broken; I looked and after she told me what to look for. saw that she was correct. The appt was made for two days later and they also honored their website coupon for 10% off of parts (this saved me $25). The service guy was prompt and fixed the problem within an hour. The service guy also happened to be the one who had installed the new door opener, I had purchased in 2013. The service was prompted and the work was excellent! Thanks!

Jon bid on our water line project and after reading many reviews about his work on this website we hired him. He arrived on time on the day of the job with a helper to help him dig. He answered any questions we had throughout the day and he was very patient. He completed the job within 8 hours and took pictures to show us exactly what he did, which was a nice bonus. Approximately one month later our pressure reducing valve died and we hired him to replace it. Again he was on time and did the job quickly and efficiently. He patiently answered any questions we had regarding the job. Would hire him again for any plumbing issues.

We bought a tub from Jim at Westwood Beachcomber and are impressed at the customer service before, during and after our purchase. JIm the owner of the store drove out in his own vehicle with a hot tub template and we showed him were we wanted to put our hot tub. He noticed a few problems with our cement slab as it needed to be level. He said the the hot tub delivery guys he uses Quick Shot Logistics could build a flat area for us and a reasonable cost. I agreed and a few days later Bruce from Quick Shot Logistics called me and arranged a time to come to my home to give me a quote. So we purchased the Hot tub a hybrid 350, which we love and Bruce arrived on the agreed on day and was on time. His crew built the platform for me and then his crew put the hot tub on it for us! Bruce and his crew where excellent and the job price was as quoted! Before Bruce left he called Kevin the electrician and he came and hooked up the hot tub for us. After Kevin left we had a water leaking from one of hot tub pipes. We called Jim and he sent out a staff member by the name of Irwin right away. Irwin came out with his handy hot tub wrench and tightened the fittings for us. He also went through the hot tub chemical starter for us and explained as he did it. Awesome guy and awesome service! We have called the shop a few times as new hot tub owners and the staff as always patient and knowledgeable! Jim's Westwood Beachcomber also provides free hot tub water tests once monthly free for his customers and also has a 20% off day for his customers once per month for all of the hot tub chemicals and accessories that will fit in the reusable bag. The service is excellent and I would highly recommend Westwood Beachcomber for your hot tub purchase!

We needed our windows replaced and after reading many positive reviews decided to buy them from Long Life. The job was arranged for April 2014 and Bernard and his crew arrived on time. Bernard had previously come to our home to explain to us, exactly what he was going to do. So when they arrived on job day, we knew what to expect. He was courteous and responsive to questions. After our windows were installed, he was supposed to touch the paint up around our front windows. He went above and beyond and painted the entire wooden area around the front windows and it looked awesome! They also touched up a few nails holes that we noticed after the job and it was done promptly. I cannot say enough about the quality of our new windows and the skill of Bernard and his installers.
