Mr. Goody re-finished a pine floor in our kitchen when it was renovated. He had done work in our house previously when he re-finished very old oak flooring and he did a beautiful job. The kitchen was a meticulous job that required colouring the existing floor before finishing. Great work and a knowledgeable person who is willing to offer suggestions and advice.
Tindall Tree Service has done work on our property for a number of years including tree removal (Dutch elm disease) as well as removal of dead branches from Norway maples. Rob Tinney and his staff are knowledgeable and their first aim is to save trees not just chop. Their service is prompt and they work safely.
We have bought many items over the past 8 years at Lights Galore: kitchen lighting systems, table lamps, desk lamps and exterior lighting. They have a large inventory and many catalogues from which to choose. Their lamp doctor has also repaired an antique light fixture. The staff are helpful and have great suggestions to fit your style and the age of your home.
Moffatt's just finished our roof (on a 140 year old house). The original call to them was answered promptly--some companies didn't ever answer--and Tom Moffatt was efficient, helpful, and gave a quote the next day. Not 10 days later the job is complete. The crew who came to our house--Jason, Richie, Carmen-- are friendly, hard-working, and expert at their work. They answered all our questions. Their clean-up at the end of the job was great. We know the work will stand the test of time because they repaired a lower roof a few years ago. This crew even fixed a fan that was vented to the roof. It had been installed incorrectly by a bathroom contractor. Highly recommend Moffatt Bros.
Thank you Lynda. Very ecstatic to read about your very positive review with our company. We believe that the little things count. Thank you very much for choosing Moffatt Bros Roofing for all of your roofing needs.
ceramic flooring, stair carpet
Sine's Flooring has a great selection of carpeting and flooring. They are friendly and helpful. We had ceramic tiles added to a kitchen reno and the order was efficient and timely. Carpeting for a stairway was the same. A good place to do business.
This company is well organized, responsive and reasonably priced. Their staff has maintained our furnace and AC units and gas fireplace during the past 8 years. They are safety-conscious and good at explaining technical things to the uninitiated. Trouble-shooting a strange smell in the house was prompt and efficient. Highly recommended.
Gerry is a professional framer who does excellent work. She has a variety of mats and frames in her studio. She is available for consultation at your office or home for guidance in choosing the best framing to suit your personal style. Her prices are reasonable because she makes economical use of materials. A great find in Grafton.
Bary Gosselin is a builder/designer/contractor/ who was in charge of our kitchen reno a couple of years ago. He was amenable to the ideas I had in mind and designed it. His work and the work of the others he contracted was excellent. All materials appeared on time, work was completed on time and within budget. And all this with a pleasant manner and spirit of cooperation. A great experience and follow-up as needed. Highly recommended.
Richard Cadoret is an interior designer expert who owns a beautiful shop full of vintage pieces and modern furniture, fabrics, art, and accessories. He is knowledgeable and easy to work with. We chose a love seat and ottoman that fitted our colour scheme and style perfectly. Great service.
The experience at the showroom is fine with helpful, knowledgeable staff and we chose tub, sink, shower, countertops, cupboard and vanity. The installation went well with courteous workers and quality work except for the shower floor which was not properly cured and therefore was never right. It looked dirty all the time despite thorough cleaning and attempts by the contracted person to fix it. The issue was never properly addressed by Anden's and remains a problem three years later. The centre is terrific as long as you are willing to do without follow-up. At Anden's there seems to be no such thing as a 'deficiency list'.
We purchased granite for countertops in our newly renovated kitchen/ The selection at Delray is wonderful and displayed as huge walls of stone. The installation was not exactly as our contractor had specified re the sink level but was satisfactory. Two years later the granite still looks beautiful. The staff at the site are accommodating.
A couple of years ago we replaced 5 windows in our 150 year old house. Linton Windows & Glass did beautiful work. Their measurements were perfect, installation went smoothly and within the timeline given. The best was the oval window over the front porch; it still looks 'vintage'. We recommend them highly.
Six years ago we had custom window shades done for our heritage house. The consultant who visited our house was professional and helpful. The shades still look great. Vosburgh's have a huge selection and are willing to even help you when you're attempting a DIY project. Great family run business.
I had an antique tea wagon refinished at Vosburgh's and they did a beautiful job. It is gleaming. They even replaced the rubber tubing around the wheels which had cracked with age. Highly recommended.
Retreat is a wonderful place for high quality bed linens, towels, bathroom accessories and hardware, lovely line of soaps and such, unusual pampered baby items. A great place to buy a special gift.
lamps, cushions, home accessories
Monogrammes has had a name change to Dwellisimo but its quality is unchanged...great selection of custom lamps and lampshades, throw cushions for indoors and out, unusual home accessories. Helpful, friendly staff.
The Garden Network is a beautiful family-owned plant nursery in a country setting, charming and restful. There are planted gardens to give you ideas and the perennials and annuals are of the highest quality. Owner and staff are friendly and knowledgable.
The Painted Tree (Darlene Claus) is a good general art supply store. If an item is not in stock, Darlene will special order for you. Art workshops are well done and varied in medium and audience (adult and children) in a friendly supportive atmosphere.
Jules has framed many pictures for me including photos, my own art work , and pieces that needed re-framing. He does an excellent job--precise, professional and in a timely fashion. His selection of frames and accessories is fine.
