Bakerstreet did a pre-list home inspection for a house that I bought recently and knowing that the home had been inspected by a well respected company (my agent, who I trust implicitly, said that they have a good reputation, and I researched them online as well) gave me peace of mind. After looking at the inspection it gave me the confidence to submit an offer without a condition for a home inspection, which ultimately got me the house. What I really liked about the report was that the inspector told me what would need attention over the next 1-5 years, which will allow me to budget for things like removal of one string of knob & tube wiring, a new air conditioner and other smaller things. And when I called them about a few things in the report that were unclear to me, they called me back the same day and explained it to me.

Frank turned my ugly laundry room/2 pc. washroom into a showpiece. I sourced the porcelain tile, cabinet & sink, toilet and Frank did the rest. He ripped out the existing flooring, cabinets, shelving, sink cabinet, toilet, re-installed the new stuff and patched the walls, making them ready to paint. This is one of many projects that Franks's done for me. He's also done work for clients and friends of mine as well. I've referred him to so many people that I now have to book him several months in advance!!

I found Dan a few years ago on this very site. I looked at some of the other handymen listed and found that Dan had more reviews than the others (a good sign) and all of them were very positive. That first time, as well as every other time that I've hired him, Dan showed up right on time, did the work beyond my expectation(s), was pleasant and courteous and gave suggestions and recommendations that I perhaps hadn't considered. What hasn't he done for me? When I sold my last house he built a mantle for, and installed tile in front of, my fireplace. He helped with the laying of our new hardwood floors (we did most of the work but he help with some of the tricky cuts, etc.); installed the quarter-round in record time; leveled out and stabilized my front porch, making it look brand new, and on. I can't say enough about Dan to make you understand how happy I am that I found him. He's a great handyman and a super nice guy as well!

I was given JB Landscaping's contact info by a friend of mine who'd used them and was very happy with their work. Javier came to my house to see the job that needed to be done, sent me a quote, and started right away. The quote was quite reasonable - very much so considering the quality of work that was done. He came in on time and on budget and didn't ask me for one penny more than the written quote that I was given. He did an amazing job and I couldn't be happier!

I feel bad - I should have written this review LONG AGO! I called Dan after I read about him on this site and I couldn't have been happier with him. He's not only a great guy who arrives ON TIME, he does superb work and I would not hesitate to call him again. I refer him to everyone and anyone that I can! We had some framing work that needed doing, so I called Dan. We'd used Dan's services before and were very happy with his work. So much so that I've been referring him all over the city. Maybe a bit too much - now he's so busy you have to book months in advance! :-) He's that good!! Never to be one to let you down, Dan sent over his man Robbie who did a great job for us as well. Thanks guys!
