Gmano Railings

Leo is a true master craftsman in every aspect. From the first consultation Leo was patient, knowledgeable and did exactly what our plan was on the agreed upon dates. Leo endured our modifications with no hesitation and delivered to us exactly what we envisioned Moreover, he and his assistant kept the staircase secure for us, during the time they worked and cleaned up the workspace immaculately. If you’re wanting a staircase redo, look no further than this accomplished professional. Thank you, Leo!

Leo from Gmano railings did a phenomenal job installing our railings in our newly renovated victorian home in Toronto. Leo met with us several times to go over various options and to ensure we were going to be happy. Leo and his team exceeded our expectations.

He was extremely clean. We would highly recommend him.

Extremely happy we chose Gmano Railings to install stair railings for our townhouse. Leo was an absolute professional and pleasure to work with through the process, even with Covid Restrictions in place. He made the process safe and simple, showing us pictures throughout. He made himself readily available returning call and messages. His work and craftsmanship made our home look ten times better. Our family appreciates the hard work!

Fast, easy to work with, reliable.
He did a great job, exactly as we wanted it took look. Thanks Leo!

Leo was very professional. On time every time. His attention to detail is second to none. Very polite and respectful of my home. Cleaned up after every work day, including vacuuming. I literally had no dust on the floors after he was done each day. I can't say enough good things about him. Thank you Leo!!

A pleasure dealing with Leo...he is a man that takes great pride in his work and it shows!! From the quote to the finished product, nothing but true professionalism...didn't even get another quote.

Very patient too. While he was working on the railing, I was laying hardwood upstairs and obviously, I had to go downstairs to make my cuts. He let me through while he was working without any whining or complaints. If you need any railing or stair work done, do not hesitate to call him. You will not be disappointed!!

I am so grateful to Leo! He was one of a few providers that quoted to reface our stairs including possibly replace the railing. With his experience and workmanship he was able to restore our old railing saving us a lot of money even though he would've made more money just replacing it. He did the job in the time we agreed and charged a fair price and even gave us some tips on how to do the painting of the stairs so we could save money. Amazing professional!

First of all Leo is as nice as they come and his work is quality. We had a very unique situation with our railings and only someone skilled and particular could have done such an amazing job as he did. Highly recommend Leo to anyone looking for quality a job

I am thoroughly impressed with Leo at Gmano Railings. He was a pleasure to work with and I appreciated his suggestions and his attention to detail. I felt he genuinely cared about what I wanted and in the end I now have exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you Leo and I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for impeccable service!!

Not only do I 1000000% recommend Gmano Railings, I want this review to be a public service announcement about the importance of using a qualified company for your railings.

My partner and I recently bought a home that required extensive renovations. This included constructing & installing new railings for the main and second floor landings, as well as a railing for the stairs leading to the second floor. For additional context, the previous owner had removed all railings and constructed walls in their places. Also, our's is a narrow home, so the second floor hallway is also narrow.

From our first meeting with Leo, we knew we wanted to work with him!

First off, Leo came to review the site in order to provide an accurate and informed quote (whereas other companies just asked for pictures & gave us estimates based on that). During his visit, Leo was extremely thorough in taking measurements and really reviewing the site conditions, and took the time to inform us about our options and answer our questions. He gave us the confidence and assurance we needed that not only would the quote be accurate and within budget, but that we were also in great and experienced hands.

(And here is where I want to emphasize the importance of working with a qualified company - we had previously worked with a GC who did decent enough on some general renos (drywall, etc) and we had inquired about having them potentially do our railings. This GC was adamant that the only way to install the railing was to rip up part of our flooring in order to secure the post to a floor joist. The idea of this horrified us since we had just gotten our floors done.)

In taking the time to review & understand the limitations of our space, Leo recommended a removable railing for our second floor landing. This would allow us to remove the rail and create more space should we need to move large objects to & from our main & second floors. Part of our handrail would also be removable due to some space limitations in our stairway as well. Again, this is why it's critical to work with someone who specializes in railings and has the expertise to provide you with the options that fit your needs!

The installation took 2 days, as Leo completed all the work himself. He was not only super diligent and thorough, but also kept a very clean and tidy work site. He also kept us informed and continued to answer our questions throughout the process. For the removable railing, he even took & provided a video of the process, so that we could use it as a reference for the future!

Beyond that, I just want to say what an awesome guy Leo is to work with. He is friendly, genuine and committed to providing excellent quality worksmanship and service. (I literally marvelled and stared at our newel caps for like half an hour because of the level of detail he put into them!)

We couldn't have asked for a better and more knowledgeable railing contractor to work with, and I can't recommend Gmano Railings strongly enough! In addition, he is an independent and locally-owned business, which I am always a proponent of.

Thank you, Leo, for all of your hard and excellent work! :D
