Downspouts and Siding Nightmare

We found Oleg on Homestars and chose to go with him because of his homestars score and reviews. At first, he was very communicative and provided us with a quote for our downspouts, replacing the soffit at the back of our home and sealing our home siding .

Unfortunately, Oleg was only able to complete 1 of the 3 items decently (the soffit). As for the downspouts and siding, anyone with no experience whatsoever could have done a better job. Nearly all the downspouts he installed had leaks and the caulking on the siding was done inconsistently and without any care.

Anyone who is considering home vision should stay far away and find someone else.

Hi Eduard. Thank you for your feedback.

We truly believe that your review doesn't define our workmanship and the way we operate. I am going to try to bring some evidence why we went the extra mile to serve you better, and why we don't deserve such a poor rating.

Regarding the siding 
As outlined in the estimate I sent back on June 16th, 2019, we noticed a common issue of the siding planks around the house. They were poorly installed from the previous contractor with big gaps up to half of an inch. It was evident that the wall could have serious leaks between the gaps and through the loose planks. We tested the caulking at an area beside the gate. We tried several attempts with 3 different types of caulking, to match the color and seal the the gaps before we proceeded at the rest of the house. If you still have records of our text messages, you'll remember. If we didn't stand before a certain quality of service, we would have simply said it's not doable.  Maybe we made a mistake offering to fix a poor installation of another contractor, but this all came out of good intention and we would do the same thing now. But no matter what we will apply at those gaps, you will not be satisfied because it will not look as neat as any siding planks installed properly. The gaps are just too big, the overall siding installation has issues. We spoke several times before we proceeded. You were aware this was no common application and you seemed to be  okay with it when we closed the job.  I guess we should have been clearer to what to expect out of it. At the end, we even refused to get payed for the service because it didn’t meet your  expectations.

Regarding the downspouts

All we did at your house was installing 4 extensions of the existing downspouts. I am assuming, based on the date you posted this review, February 22nd, you might have noticed the leaks during that big frost. If that's the case, eavestrough and downspout becomes full of ice when certain weather conditions align. Sunny days after snowfall, melted snow becomes water and freezes as soon as it gets inside the gutter and downspouts. It melts and it freezes many times during the day, based on the intensity of the sun. Because the downspouts are clogged with ice, the melted water drips through the joints of the extensions. These issues are common during Canadian. Also, there are so many other factors that might cause the downspouts to leak, such as clogging, improper slope, overall issued with the eavestrough system which were not done from us. We simply added 4 downspout extensions at the existing downspouts.

Regarding your  review

We were hired almost 2 years from the date of this review. We haven't heard from you ever since and I wish we received a phone call or an email prior to posting your opinion on our workmanship, or just for a consultation since the service is still under the warranty.  While you say that you’ve lost trust on Homestars, I can assure you that they go through the same investigation methods for either a negative or positive review. This review is the only negative review that we had in over 12 years in this business. It's not a coincidence that we have excellent ratings, otherwise you'll find other negative reviews on our profile such as yours. 
It's a little  frustrating to get such negative feedback for such small repairs when we deal with over 300 hundreds complex projects in one season, and receive excellent ratings. We are not perfect, there are small issues now and then, but everyone we work with knows that we are honest, reliable and very professional no matter the size of the project.  While I've done everything that I believe a decent contractor and business owner would do to exceed the customer satisfaction, I really hoped I’d get the same approach from your side. I tried calling, emailing and I barely got an answer. I called right after you texted and someone else responded  and claimed that the number I called doesn't belong to you. "Strange". I have very great relations with my clients and I feel bad I have been ignored this way. This isn't the way I work, no matter the circumstances.  However, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us. Always here to help.
Sincerely, Oleg Rira (owner of Home Vision Inc.)647.833.7289

Downspout replacement

I looked up Home Vision on Homestars, with the highest review scores and best reviews. They did a wonderful and fast job. Communication via email was very quick; we were able to set up a date quickly (within 1.5 weeks) to replace my downspout. Would recommend for sure.

Vinyl Siding and capping

Home vision was one of 3 companies who quoted for a job and I ended up going with them. Oleg is so down to earth and easy to deal with. I chose a wrong colour - too brown- and they were willing to get it changed back. I had a big for put in and then needed to redo all the siding around it and up on the second floor. They also did a really good job with the aluminum siding and caulking. Since then I’ve used them also for eaves troughs and a window install at a rental house I’ve got.

Remove old siding - install new

The crew did a fantastic job. Kept the site tidy, good looking installation, and took care of every request we had. The process from signing contact to choosing from product samples to post-completion invoicing was totally professional. I highly recommend Home Vision Inc.

Siding/Eavestrough/Roof

I was looking for a reputable company on HomeStars to replace the damaged siding and eavestrough on my house. That's when I found Home Vision. After viewing their gallery and impressive reviews, I decided to contact them for a quote. Oleg immediately got back to me to schedule an appointment. When he arrived, he was very pleasant and easy to speak with. He was able to answer all my questions and concerns and made suggestions on how they could improve the curb appeal of my house by suggesting a few additions. He provided me with a professional well laid out and reasonably priced quote. When I decided to go ahead with their services, I met with his brother Klay who was overseeing the project. I shared with him that I wanted a different colour than what I currently had. Klay recommended a few colours that would complement my house. He walked me through the vision, and although I couldn't see it 100%, he was so confident that I would be happy with the results, I agreed to go ahead with it. When the job was complete, boy was he right, I loved it! It was better than what I imagined. Klay, Gio and his crew were professional, a pleasure to work with, showed up on time each day and cleaned up every evening. I also had a repair to be done on my roof. I was initially going with another company that I used in the past, but because they did such an excellent job, I decided to go ahead with having them take care of the roof repair as well. I'm so happy with Home Vision's workmanship. Their style and quality of work surpass other siding/eavestrough/roofing companies by far. I highly recommend them. Thanks Home Vision for seeing the "vision" before I could clearly see it myself.

Siding & Eavestrough Project

Home Vision did a fantastic job replacing the siding on the back of our house, as well as the eavestrough and soffit around the entire house. The quote was reasonable and Oleg recommended a siding product the suited what we were looking for. The team was able to handle the complexity of the job, which included the close proximity to the neighbor’s house and covering some air conditioning pipes. They worked hard for four straight days to complete the project before the weather turned. Also did a great job cleaning up every day. I would certainty recommending them for these exterior projects.

A family operated business that shines

We searched for a company that was a Toronto based business that had the highest customer reviews, had been around for a while, were registered with the BBB, and was experienced with installing the shingles we had selected. Home Vision was our number 1 choice for a number of important reasons. They were a family business, they had incredible reviews about their customer service and follow-up, and we had great confidence in Oleg when he arrived for the quote. Their price was fair, the kept us informed every step of the way, they honoured all of their time and service commitments, had a great team of employees, were great to work with, and did a fantastic job. Our neighbours also admired the job they did. A great company doing great work, with a refreshing customer focus. We have absolute confidence in their work and would highly recommend Home Vision!
