William in Toronto

We needed to have drapes and sheers for our Family Room window, as well as blackout drapes for the MBR window. We visited big box stores but were uncomfortable with their selections. Our research on the Internet led us to Anne Drapery and we decided to give it a visit - based on the positive reviews we read. We dropped by Anne Drapery one afternoon in late October to check it out. Anne was knowledge and personable. She listened to our needs and made initial suggestions to get us started. We decided on the type, style, and material for our new window coverings. We also narrowed down the colours. Anne guided us with occasional input to the best designs for us. Anne visited us the next morning before her store opened to do the measurements. She brought samples to ensure that the chosen ones fit with the decor in the rooms. She even brought a sample of the curtain rod she planned to use. We added blinds for two upstairs washrooms as well. Three weeks later Anne and her installer came to install the sheers, curtains and blinds. They did a very good job! Anne even patched the small holes left behind. We are very satisfied with the quality of material and workmanship. We highly recommend Anne Drapery to family and friends.

We met with David and William from Exterior By Design Stucco And Stone Inc. in late July to get a quote on redoing the stucco on the exterior of our house. We were impressed by the knowledge they processed and the advice they offered. At that time we already had multiple quotes on the stucco work, as well as quotes on replacing the windows in our house. Upon learning that Exterior By Design also did windows, and that David actually started out doing windows, we invited them to return to quote on ours. After comparing the various quotes and studied the companies, we decided to go with Exterior By Design on both windows and Stucco work. They were not the cheapest for sure, however their prices were reasonable considering the quality of materials and warranty they offered. The windows installation started in the first week of November 2020. It took 3 days. It was quite dusty as it was a wall-to-wall installation. At the end of the job the installers took away the debris and did a fairly good job cleaning up. We are happy with the new windows. They modernize our house. On David and William’s recommendation we changed the kitchen window that overlook our backyard and a creek to an awning window. Wow, what a difference it made! Just a few days after the windows installation they were able to start the exterior stucco work around our house. They completely removed the old stucco and rebuilt anew with insulations. The main stucco panel sat on top of the garage, William suggested that we split the existing garage light into two which we agreed. He coordinated to have their electrician Alex to do the job. Alex was knowledgeable and very well mannered. The stucco installer Arthur started his day early and worked hard. He was knowledgeable of his work, and friendly. The job took about 2 weeks. Arthur also did a good job clean up the site. Our neighbours have complimented us on the new look of our house. We appreciate the advice that David and William offered. The crews did a great job. We enjoy our new windows and the new look of our house. Thank you David and William for your help!

Fred came to our house to quote on the job. He looked at the equipment and measured our house. He even noted the orientation of our house and how much of the basement is above ground level. He suggested several options for us to choose from. As we were looking for high efficiency and quiet operations we decided on the SLP98V furnace and the EL16XC1 air conditioner. There was some duct work to be done as well. Fred drew the schemes so the installer would know exactly what to do. Fred was personable. He listened to our comments and concerns and made suggestions. With that I think we got the best solutions to meet our needs. After the original quotes we did contact Cozy World via phone or email to discuss minor changes, Fred responded quickly and was accommodating. The installer Kam was very friendly and knew what he was doing. He and his assistant kept the work site clean and the noise level down. Overall excellent job! We have had the new equipment for one month now. The furnace is working very well, extremely quiet! It is heating all the rooms more evenly than was ever before. We are happy! Won’t be using the air conditioner until next year, and we hope it will be as good as the furnace.
