We hired Designer Deck 2 years ago to install tiles on the balcony when we moved into an apartment. Since then, they have come every spring to thoroughly clean and wash the tiles. They have done an excellent job each time. Customer service has been great - they are quick to follow up and to keep in touch if any changes to the schedule need to be made due to weather issues. Both the head office staff and the front-line workers are extremely pleasant and easy to deal with. I would not hesitate to recommend Designer Deck.

I hired Hunter Hill on the recommendation of my designer Nanette Snel. I could not be more pleased with the work Melena and her team did - installing overhead light fixtures, wallpapering a guest room and painting a bathroom, kitchen backsplash area, feature wall in living room and the foyer. Everyone was meticulous in the work they did and so pleasant to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend this company for any similar projects.

All the folks at Space Solutions were great to work with. The installers came on time and worked late in order to get the job done. The owner, Barb Larocque, was on top of the situation at all times and made a personal visit to follow up on the installation. When I requested an extra hole and grommet for the desk several months later, she was happy to send an installer over at no charge. This is the second time we have used Space Solutions, and both times, we were extremely pleased with their service.

I hired Nanette to help with some design decisions when moving from a house into an apartment. She helped us decide which pieces we would be able to use in the new setting, and we went shopping for new items together. She has a wonderful range of sources, some of which would not be available to the general public. She visited the apartment several times to make sure that our choices would work. On her final visit, she advised about placement of artwork and accessories, as well as additional colour consultation. I would not hesitate to recommend Nanette for a similar project. Plus, she was great fun to work with!

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

You guys are great! Arrived on time with heads-up phone call as promised. Both guys were pleasant and good to work with. Job was done in record time. We would be very happy to recommend you to others. Many thanks for a job well done!

Excellent service from start to finish. Packing of breakables was done the day before the move. On move day, the crew arrived right on time and were most pleasant and professional. Furniture was placed in the exact location we specified in the apartment. I would certainly recommend this firm to others.

Some time ago, we hired James to refinish an end table and reupholster a couple of chairs we inherited from my mother. The work was done very well and dealing with James was a pleasure. We are now asking him to refinish a wooden bed frame from the 40s and looking forward to the results.

Excellent service as usual. Delays in pouring the cement for the front steps were due to a rainy spring - better to wait until conditions are right instead of doing the job and running into problems. Interlocking brick was completely replaced as matching bricks could not be found. Once again, a high quality job.

Services were provided promptly and as scheduled for the repair of a non-functioning hot plate on our stove. Staff went out of their way to try to get this repair covered by the manufacturer. Nick, the technician, was polite and helpful.

Even though there are big box stores within walking distance of our home, we buy our appliances at Goeman's because of the quality of service and knowledgability of the staff. We get good advice on the products to buy, and delivery and installation always go smoothly. Since outfitting our new kitchen here four years ago, we have not gone elsewhere for appliances.

Don has been providing window and eaves cleaning for us for several years. He always does a great job and is very pleasant to deal with. He has also cleaned our Silhouette blinds and the outcome was great - no wrinkling as other cleaners have warned us about. We're very satisfied with his services and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

For almost 6 months, we attempted to get this store to provide repairs to our skylight blind. After selling us a replacement battery for $200, which consisted of 18 AA batteries in a plastic box, my husband had problems installing it. We brought the battery kit back to the store and they were to send an installer to our home. The installer came, without the battery kit. Another appointment was to be set up, but no-one ever called. Repeated calls to the store resulted in promises to arrange an appointment, but this never happened. Sonia, the store manager, changed her story every time we spoke to her. She didn't follow through on anything she promised us, and was extremely rude and unhelpful. My husband finally had to go to the store to get the battery back, and we made other arrangements to fix it. I would avoid this store at all costs.

Marilyn helped us to come up with a design that really worked for our space. The quality of the cabinets was excellent, and any follow-up issues were attended to promptly.

Going through a bathroom renovation for the first time, we needed all the help we could get. Roseanne really helped us make the right choices for our fixtures, faucets, and countertop. She worked with our contractor to make sure that things were delivered as needed, and was a great help through the entire process.

Charlie, Jay and their team worked with us from start to finish to completely renovate our guest bathroom. They have a very high standard of quality, and work is performed on a timely basis. We have used this firm on many occasions and would not hesitate to recommend them.
