Parker Restorations Ltd

We contacted Parker Restorations to fix cracks in our mortar, clean up a messy job that a previous owner had done, and to fix base of the foundation around the house that was cracking and crumbling. It was a tough summer weather wise and this type of work can't be done in the rain, but when Brian and Shelley came to our home our minds were at ease. They were both so friendly and professional and not to mention thorough with the job. It took about 3 days for them to complete everything. They were very patient and knowledgeable with questions, and Brian always answered my text messages promptly. I would recommend this company to anyone looking for this type of work to be done.

Brian and Shelly are artist! They are knowledgeable and passionate about their work. They are meticulous and go the extra-mile to make the finish product beautiful. I would recommend them without hestitation or reservation.

Brian and Shelley removed the railings, awning, chipped tiles, and parging from the front porch (which turned out to be in a state very much worse than expected under the parging!). They laid lavender-toned bana stone in a wonderful design on the top of the porch, used the coloured mortar to design a stone-like edge around the sides of the porch at the top, and then re-parged the rest in a lovely grey. The steps now have what appear to be indestructible bana stone treads, with a brick facing on the back of the steps - they even managed to find slightly different shades of brick, which matches the brick of the house beautifully. I was initially slightly worried about getting the work done, because another company had told me my door sill was too low to accommodate a stone-topped porch, but Brian and Shelley not only ground down the top of the porch so that the stone was a perfect fit, they also used the stone - in pattern, yet - to replace the old, damaged wood sill. It looks beautiful and I'm delighted. Brian and Shelley were diligent and worked long hours (even occasionally in the rain!) to get the job done in as timely a fashion as our June weather would allow. They were responsive - very patient with my questions and returned e-mails and calls quickly - and included me in all decisions about design and colour. Best of all, they were also friendly and pleasant to work with. I would definitely recommend Parker Restoration to friends and family without hesitation.

We had some brick and foundation issues on our 90 year old house. Due to missing eavestroughs, many bricks and the foundation on the northeast corner of the house were crumbling. Parker Restorations replaced about 20 bricks. They took the time to match the historic bricks and parged all four walls of our foundation. The also fixed some step cracks and repointed numerous places. They were professional, thorough and did a fantastic job. We couldn't be happier with the work they did.

Brian was able to remove flag stone that was and had fallen off the step and re- cemented the steps and sides of the porch. Brian also without asking or charging extra repaired two cracks in our walk way. Brian was very efficient and also made sure the area was clean once done.

From my initial contact with Parker Restorations, Brian was responsive to all my questions and concerns, and emails were always answered the same day. The work was completed both efficiently and expertly, the clean-up was outstanding, and the final bill was exactly the same as the estimate. As an unexpected bonus, Brian was even kind enough to fix my leaking outside water faucet free of charge. I would definitely hire Parker Restorations again.

I cannot say enough good things about Parker Restorations! Very professional and diligent! They went over and above what was asked of them. Brian & Shelley: Thanks again for a wonderful job! It was a real pleasure!

Brian is very meticulous about his work and it shows. His work is to notch. He was true to his quote and arrived to do the job exactly when he said he would and also completed the job witin the estimated time. I was really happy to find someone who could repair the various things I needed done.

The stones on my front porch were bulging and falling out due to crumbling mortar . Brian and Shelly were able to take the stones out, replace the mortar and set stones back in, blending the mortar so that the repair work was invisible. I was very pleased with the restoration. They were careful in their work, and everything was cleaned at the end of the job. Most importantly they came on the day promised and completed the project on time. They were a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend Parker Restorations.
