I have used Get Plugged for a few of our projects for both indoor and outdoor applications. They have a reputation to take pride in their work and always deliver. Punctual, responsive, reliable and competitively priced. You will not be disappointed with Get Plugged.

I had GoldStar contracting come out and replace my over the range exhaust fan with a new one. They were able to also install a row of back splash tile (which thankfully we had on hand) to bring the tiles up to the new fan's location and saved us from having to replace all of them. Great job guys! I will definitely recommend you.

We deal with many contractors on a daily basis and I would like to commend Chris, Jim and his team of experts on their professionalism, commitment to customers and hard working crew. They really rose to the occasion and provided stellar service. Our kitchen sink was backing up and after trying to snake the main 4" line in the basement for a couple hours, I finally came to the conclusion that we need to call in the experts. Called Waterman on my cousin's recommendation. Chris explained to me that we likely needed a power flush as all I was doing was boring through grease which would plug right back up as soon as I took the snake out. He committed to a fast turn around time and stuck to it. Sure enough Bryan and crew showed up 5 minutes early and well equipped for the job. Despite the nature of the problem, they were neat and tidy and did a great job. I would like to thank the Waterman team for a super job and glad I went with them. Hopefully I will not require their services again but I now know who to call when I do. Keep up the great work Chris, Jim and team!!!

A few years back I was looking for a home contractor and stumbled across the Homestars website. I went with a well reputable company and was impressed by their service. I had never fully trusted online review companies but maybe this system really works. I then listed my company and that is when I truly realized the benefits of a credible online review company. This website is really brilliant. The thing I really like is that you do not hear about them on the radio like other competing sites. They would rather invest this money into building their credibility and back end infrastructure. Each and every review passes their screening process and then is validated and posted. I always advocate the Homestars website to my customers letting them know that it works well from both the homeowners and contractors prospective. As a homeowner, you have a pretty good idea of what kind of service you are going to get by the reviews and from the contractors prospective you push yourself to do your best to maintain that stellar reputation! A win win for both sides. Absolutely brilliant, I wish I had thought of this first, but the idea was just the beginning. It is the hard work and dedication of their team who has brought them to where they are now! Great job guys, I tip my hat to your team!

Steve and Mat were outstanding. They came out last week to clean our ducts and as I expected they were superstars. They prepped my home with protective corners to ensure their hose does not damage anything on the way in. They were very thorough and checked everything to ensure no mess was left behind. Thanks Paul and team for another wonderful job! Keep up the great work!

Upon contacting Vacworks to repair my central vac system (still under warranty), I arranged to drop it off and have it repaired. When I arrived at the store, Mark greeted me and was courteous and friendly. Along with my central Vac system I also brought my hose in for them to have a look at as the connection was loose and the system would occasionally shut off and need wiggling to come back on. Mark called my wife the next day to indicate that the vacuum was ready and that we had acouple options for the hose. We can have it repaired for $90 or replaced for $160 . No additional costs were mentioned at this point. We told him that we would purchase the new hose and would keep the old one as a spare for the basement or garage as it still worked. I arrived to pick up the vacuum and was greeted by a lady who was very rude and ignorant. She showed me my old hose that was taken apart and in pieces and insisted it was broken and we couldn't use it any more. When I told her it worked and would like to take it for use as a 2nd hose she insisted it was broken and did not want to put it back together. After a few minutes of arguing I refused to purchase the new hose. She finally pieced the old hose back together and as I was about to leave, she now came up with a $40 service fee for the repair. I wasn`t prepared to further argue with her and didn`t even wait to get my receipt which would indicate what the charges were for but know I will never visit this shop again!

From start to finish Jim was incredible. I approached him with the idea or concept that i had in mind and he was able to get back to me with his vision and some sample ideas. I really like the final product and have received many compliments on our truck! Thanks again Jim and keep up the great work! Cant wait to print the next vehicle!

After looking at many furniture stores in the GTA we could not find something that was just right for our bedroom set. We then decided to look into custom options. After sitting down with Roger and going over some pictures of what we like, we came up with a design we loved. Everything was built to size and finished exactly as requested. The wait was a little longer than originally anticipated, however, the workmanship is unparalleled. If you are looking for high quality solid wood furniture that will last for years, stop by UC Chair's showroom. You will not be disappointed! Thanks again Roger and Lilian for a solid product!

Let me first start off by expressing our gratitude to Royal Stone for their extraordinary customer service and exemplary workmanship. Tony from Royal Stone came out to take the measurements and provide us with a quotation for our home landscaping project. He was very knowledgeable and presented us with some excellent ideas for our home project which entailed tearing out the front driveway, laying interlock stones, a flower bed enclosure and a patio with a natural gas fire pit. On the scheduled day, Ken showed up with his crew exactly on time. Within 20 minutes, they had laid their protective plywood for the machinery, marked out the pattern and started excavating the back yard. By the end of the day the patio was fully completed and the front driveway was laid and ready for the border and lights. The next day the borders were cut, the lights installed and connected and by noon, they had cleaned up both our property and the street. Royal Stone clearly takes pride in their work and ensures everything is completed to perfection. No corners were cut in the process and despite some extra workarounds, there were no surprises from our original quotation. They crew cleaned up after themselves ensuring no garbage or debris was left behind. The result is nothing short of flawless. We have already received numerous compliments from the neighbourhood about the work and their amazement at how timely and efficient Royal Stone was. If you want the job done right and in a timely manner, I highly recommend Royal Stone Interlock as your landscaping experts. Thank you again Ken, Pino and Tony for a job well done. George

Dev at R&S Window Coverings is a pleasure to deal with. He was quick to follow up on my initial email and offered to come out and take measurements of our home. I first noticed his attention to detail with how he took his measurements. All windows that were not perfectly square were noted and when it came time for the install, all the windows fit perfectly. Our shutters were ready in just over a week and installed as promised. Fantastic!!! We couldn't be more thrilled with the results, The shutters look beautiful. If you are looking to have shutters installed, Dev at R&S Window Coverings should be your last or only call. Very reliable and professional! Highly recommended.

Thanks again Tony for the recent Home Inspection. Though I am pretty knowledgeable and handy, there were a lot of little things that you pointed out to me which i otherwise would have missed. Your visual aids on the Thermal Infra Red Camera and humidity sensors were very reassuring that the house was in good standing. I can now proceed with purchasing the house with piece of mind that our new home will not require any major work in the next few years. Thanks again for all your help and candid professional opinion. Your Very Satisfied Customer, George
