Due to our light switch being too close to the shower, the electrical safety authority (ESA) inspector required us to install a glass door around the shower which prevented anyone in the shower from reaching out and touching the switch. We saw outstanding reviews for Doors and More and decided to move forward with them. From the initial measurements, to the final installation, it was clear that everyone who came from this company was properly trained and professional. Due to an odd window which extends into our shower area, the measurement technician suggested we install a stationary panel to ensure the water does not spill out and degrade the drywall or the window trim. We accepted the suggestion, and he even discussed with the office manager to reduced the standard price for that panel so that we stayed within our budget. The site was cleaned before and after the installation to perfection so that the caulking around the glass panels does not get adversely affected from the dust. The workmanship was phenomenal and we are very pleased with the look of our bathroom with the glass door from Doors and More. PS: Even the ESA inspector was very pleased with the quality of installation and we PASSED!

We found AC electrical from the website of the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA). Their office is in the proximity to our house, they have received excellent reviews, and their communication with us was professional, so we decided to move forward with hiring them to review and correct all issues in the electrical work left behind from our basement renovation nightmare where the previous contractor subcontracted the electrical to an unlicensed electrician, did not pull out any required permits, and left the electrical faulty and incomplete. AC electrical took out all required permits (provided me the permit code), provided the license number of the electrician assigned to us (Abraham) so we could check the license was in good standing, and began reviewing the electrical work in our basement aware of all the deficiencies identified by the ESA inspector. I have to mention AC electrical's office manager Jenelle who was a superstar in communication and sorting out logistics (e.g. arranging ESA inspections, or electrician visits). When preparing the quote, Nick forgot to include the charge for an exhaust fan timer which we had discussed will be included in the quote during his on-site visit. Upon notifying AC electrical that the timer had not been installed after Abraham completed the work, Nick immediately accepted that he did indeed agree to install the timer but had forgotten to add it in the quote. Without any questions asked he went on to install the timer without any additional charges and honoring the original quote. AC electrical even agreed to receive payment of the outstanding balance after the ESA approval certificate was provided, which we highly appreciated.

Debbie and Richard are a fantastic husband wife team. They came in to repair, refinish and reinforce the drywalls of our entire basement which was left behind in a deplorable state by our previous contractor. I can not be happier with the end result of their work. They honored their quote and their agreement and over delivered! They even went around the upper floor fixing, plastering and/or sanding minor defects in the drywall that was beyond the scope of the work laid out in the agreement we signed. It was common for them to say (paraphrased) "We are already here, we might as well just fix this problem." After our basement renovation nightmare, Richard and Debbie went outside their way to rebuild our trust in the professionals of the construction industry. Where the work was beyond their understanding or ability, they recommended other professionals who were also phenomenal. They recommended a painter to us (Jonathon from CleverCrow Painting) with whom they work regularly, and Jonathan did a fantastic job! Our previous contractor left behind a large hole in a structural wall and in order to fix this problem, Debbie suggested her brother Berry Davis to fix the defect. Berry came in, added cinder blocks and cement to support the hole in the wall, used spray foam to insulate the space around the cinder blocks, and drywalled the hole to perfection. Debbie and Richard truly care about their customers, take great pride in their work, and are willing to go outside their way to help their customers. Thanks Richard and Debbie and I know I will continue to do business with you in future! Do not hesitate to use me as a reference.

My heating furnace broke down during the coldest week of last winter over a weekend. Due to the concern of pipe damage from freezing water, we contacted many heating furnace suppliers. We also contacted home depot and were told that a represents from our local store will get back to us within 48 hours. Mike from the home depot in Scarborough called me within 1 hr of that phone call ON A SATURDAY. I requested him to come to our property to provide a quote for replacing our 20 year old furnace. In 30 min he was at our property. He thoroughly and patiently explained the product, the rebates we qualified for and how to go about claiming the rebates. I felt no pressure during the course of our discussion, unlike most sales reps who came prior to him who were engaging in extremely aggressive pushy sales tactics. Because of his thoroughness and the competitive quote, we decided to not only replace the furnace but also the AC unit. He even provided a FREE cover for the AC unit and a FREE digital temperature controller. His team came in the next day (SUNDAY) and installed both the furnace and AC within a few hours. TRULY A SAVIOR FOR THE FRIGID WINTER. This experience has made me a loyal client for our local home depot!

Purchased a lawn mower from this location. The staff was extremely courteous and because of my inability to carry the box to my car, due to a physical injury, one of the staff carried the box all the way to where I was parked and placed it inside. I really appreciated the gesture and would come back again because of this experience. Home Depot, you aced customer service!

We hired Clearview Home & Property Inspections to review the workmanship of renovations in a property we purchased. Exactly like the 99% reviews presented, my experience with Thomas Rando (the home inspector), was amazing. A few things that stood out: 1. He took the time to explain all relevant details to me over phone and in person about the benefits and limitations of conducting a home inspection specifically in my case; 2. He was incredibly respectful of my property; 3. He is simply a fantastic person to talk to; 4. The report was sent within 24 hours! I will hire Tom again for my future inspection needs and highly recommend him.
