Driveway and Walkway

We researched and met with a number of companies before deciding to go with Domar. Stefano provided a fair quote and was willing to provide ideas for our project. Domenic and his crew executed the work exactly to design and we couldnt be happier with the outcome. Our new driveway and stone walkway look terrific. Domenic is a treat to work with and always friendly. They did take longer than they anticipated though weather played a factor.

Water proofing, underpin, and concrete driveway

After doing a number of research, we decided to go with Domar Group due to their quality of work. We had an older house, so we wanted to do both water proofing as well as concrete paving of a shared driveway. At the pre-sale stage and work stage, Stefano was very quick to reply, coordinated well with our neighbor, and completed work in a reasonable time due to complication that arose.
The reason the cost/time was higher than initial estimation was due to finding out that the house needed better underpinning support, and we agreed with Mr. Manno's assessment with additional work.
Overall, Domar's group made what could be a more complicated situation easier to deal for a home owner, completed what is necessary and important, and did the job well.
The one issue we had with the team is that the majority of work is done by sub-contractors who are quite busy. So after the work was completed, there was some minor details that needed touch up. However, almost 3 months of waiting with repeated call to Stefano with many promises, that portion of the work has not been completed. Because of this, I am hesitant to provide an outstanding rating as for referring this team to another friend, and I would suggest unless you are completely satisfied with 100% of the work, withhold amount back until the work is done.
My dad (close to 80) is a very trustworthy person and paid all funds so I feel he is being taken advantage of eventhough Domar does advertise on good post-work support.

Reliable Waterproofing

We recently updated our waterproofing from the previous home owner and after a few Google searches as well as looking through Homestars reviews, we chose to go with Domenic and Stefano - a father & son led company.

It took about a week to complete the project and we are happy with the results. Stefano walked us through the process answering our questions swiftly and thoroughly.

Their customer service has been great as well. They told us to keep in touch with them afterwards so they can come back to look over the settlement and iron out the remaining work. Naturally, there have been a few dips here and there but Stefano was very responsive in letting us know what the next steps were from his side and ours.

Basement Waterproofing

I had a basement leak earlier in the spring when the snow melted and since it was an older house I thought it might be better to fix the root cause by replacing the weeping tiles and waterproofing foundation walls. I chose StayDry because of its stellar review and was not disappointed. Stefano and his team followed all best practices required to properly and throroughly waterproof a basement and were professional in both their workmanship and the materials used. I'm happy with the end results and enjoy the comfort of knowing my basement is covered for many years to come.

Covered backyard dirt with interlocking brick that looks like stone tiles.

We are beyond happy! They did excellent work! I contacted Homestars.com on Wednesday night, June 22, 2022. Earth, Stick & Stone called me Thursday morning. We got an estimate on Friday, a contract on Saturday, they started work on Monday, yesterday, and finished today, Tuesday, June 28, 2022. They covered the ground under a rotting deck with interlocking brick that looks just like stone tile. It is beautiful and perfect! The final price was the same as the estimate and was way less than we had expected to pay.

concrete driveway, and interlocking stone parking pad

Very happy with service received from the initial discussion about the scope of the work and the completion of the project. Stefano, and Domenic, were both very quick to respond and willing to answer any questions we had about the project. While they were working on our project we recommended them to a neighbour down the street. We have also recommended them to a family member. We have received a number of compliments on the completed project.

Best Company for Interlock, Fence and beautiful Back yard!!

2 years ago, Domenic did waterproofing and front porch for our house, we were so impressed by his professionalism, honesty and hard working! This year, we approached him again for upgrading our backyard. He never disappoints us! He and his hard working staffs helped us to build very nice fence, pave a perfect designed interlock, create very beautiful curving flower bedding edge, change very nice sobs.... now our back yard is totally changed as we are in paradise!! We are SOOOO happy to enjoy our beautiful beautiful back yard in this beautiful summer! From every job Domenic did for us, we know Domar group better. This company is really a trustworthy, reliable company. They care quality and reputation much more than money, which we truly appreciate! Thank YOU, Domenic and the whole team for your great job!!!

Finally we got dry basement!! --- From Toronto's Rain & Frank

over years I suffered from severely leaking basement of an old house with concrete block foundation. The pain ended last summer after Domenic and his group put new protection around the whole house. I planed to write this review right after jobs done, but later decided to wait longer to observe the result. After record breaking rain and snow fall from the past year I can now confidently say these guys did an excellent job! I finally got a dry basement as they promised!

our job was extensive involving digging around the whole house, therefore I was very careful about choosing the right contractor. My husband and I got quotations from aa few highly reviewed companies. Domenic and his group gained our trust for their track record, service and price.

The company has a very educational website, it's a great resource for us to understand how the job will be done and why. Domenic was so helpful and patient answering all our questions, Joanna not only made possible our conversation smooth, sometimes even help translating into our own language to guarantee our complete understanding. Guys on site were very tidy and well organized when they dig, and managed to finish everything within a week.

Price was reasonable and quality was outstanding, we couldn't be happier. I have referred a few friends with similar needs to them, so far haven't hear any complaints.

Thank you for doing a wonderful job, Stay Dry!

Leaking into basement through foundation

My basement has two cracks from top to the bottom of foundation. Water leaks into basement when there is a big rain.

I highly recommend this company. Communication is very good. They explained every thing in detail. Contact me before and after the project was done. I don't need to take a leave from my work. They sent me a picture after the work is done. My tenant told me he saw they did very good work. They also clean the working area carefully before they leave. The price is also reasonable.
