My project was to combine two adjacent ground floor condo units, a split level artist live / work loft, and a small single level unit, previously used as my office. A key element was combining the two electrical panels into one so we could relocate the bathroom to make room for a doorway between the two units.

Since I had been contemplating this reno for many years I had developed quite a list of ideas. The design and budget steps used by Little Star Renovations during the planning process very skillfully helped ensure that my wishes and wallet overlapped sufficiently to make the renovation a reality. They subtly offered many suggestions along the way that allowed me to determine where it made sense to spend or compromise.

I decided to sleep in the upper level of my condo and use the shower at my employer's nearby office so I could devote more money to the actual renovation. This gave me the opportunity to see the trades people every single day during the entire construction phase. It was very easy to see the expertise that each person brought to the project.

The biggest challenge we faced was getting the development and building permits, which was way more complex than expected. For example the city required that we measure the height, width and depth of each individual bicycle locker in the entire building AND count how many bike supports were mounted vertically up from the floor and horizontally out from the wall.

While I still don't understand what that had to do with relocating my bathroom, to their credit, Little Star Renovations persevered through the entire lengthy permit process. Without their dedication this project might never have happened.

I would not hesitate to recommend Little Star Renovations.

Great group of guys. Found them on Instagram. Sam was great. Very responsive and on the ball. Patty was good to work with as well for design inspirations. Given Covid they took all the necessary precautions and worked safely throughout. They never said no to any requests.

We recently worked with Little Star on a condo kitchen and bathroom renovation. From the very beginning, Little Star was both patient and supportive throughout the entire experience. This being our first renovation project, we admittedly had plenty of questions for which Little Star not only addressed, but also often provided additional guidance or solutions. Process wise, everything was very transparent and well documented, from the agreed upon project budget and timeline, to the responsibility of each party member. Unfortunately, not long after the project began, the COVID-19 pandemic provided a new set of unforeseen issues. Despite the challenging circumstance we continued to feel supported, with frequent updates on any impact this may have on our project. Jobie, Sam, Ian, and Pip, were a pleasure to deal with. Any issues were dealt with on a timely matter with a high level of professionalism. We would definitely work with Little Star again on any future project and would not hesitate in recommending their services.

Six months ago I did a bathroom renovation using the pouring method and my expectations were met. I was very worried that all this would be long. The next day guys came to me and in a couple of hours they did everything in the perfect way. Mom is extremely delighted. If you need a good bath renovation, quality and affordable prices, you know where to go.

We would wholeheartedly recommend Little Star Renovations. From start to finish they were total pros and took great care of not only the project and our home but our family too. They also helped us design our dream kitchen; first by turning our dreams into a vision and then making our vision a reality. Their in-house team were stellar and the subcontractors they brought in were all pros. They finished on time and within budget. We love our new kitchen and will use them again for any future projects.

Just as winter was coming on in 2017, we bought a well-laid out but battered 20 year-old condo to begin our downsizing process after 35 years in a heritage home. Jobie was the first contractor not to blanch at the size of the job – rip out both bathrooms and the kitchen and completely redesign them, replace all the flooring, remove the spackle from the ceilings, and build floor to ceiling bookcases throughout. And he was brimming with creative ideas that we would never have come to on our own.
Of course there were glitches and yes, the work ran months overtime, but the outstanding artisanship of Dave , and his team, responsible for creating all the millwork we requested, and Paul , whose tile work in the kitchen, bathrooms and the floor to ceiling fireplace surround are beautiful beyond belief, prevent me from dwelling on them. I open my eyes on beauty every day.
Sam, our site manager (and his highly efficient assistant, Ian) is a wonder of charisma, energy and enthusiasm, moving swiftly to correct the occasional imperfections that have revealed themselves over the months since we moved in. During the construction itself, he was everywhere at once, ever-smiling, calm and professional, soothing our worries and charming our condo neighbours to be.
The creation of our beautiful, much smaller new home, is 5-star work in my estimation.

Great working with Little Star. The ideas were creative and the work was top notch. They finished on time and stayed to the very end completing everything as promised. I recommend them highly. The owner, Jobie, has integrity and is a very reasonable guy. Also, Sam, my project manager was great to deal with. I'm not saying there weren't issues - every reno has issues. What matters is how they dealt with them, and I found they dealt with all the issues fairly and quickly.
Five stars from me!

We are thrilled with the renovations by Little Star! From start to finish, everyone we dealt with was professional and friendly. Great project management and communication. And, most importantly, we are really happy with the quality of the work!!

Jobie and his team communicated very well with us throughout the whole process of our Complete bathroom renovations and partial basement Reno. They were always there ready to answer any of our questions and ready to fix promptly any issue that arose.
Readily available and super on it. Great project management - a very organized team indeed. Lots of care towards their customers!
Thanks again!

We have spent over year and a half searching for a contractor that would renovate our kitchen "our way". We contacted LittleStar and they made our vision come trough. From the moment we first sat down to the end product we knew that Jobie and his crew were the right match. They are very professional and truly are dedicated to their customers. They have the best trades people working for you and the end product shows exactly that. The craftsmanship is second to none. LittleStar has far surpassed our expectations, we love our new look kitchen. No doubt we will contact LittleStar to do our next reno project.
