Ivan and Zenya were fantastic! They arrived on time, wearing masks for COVID-19 protection, and moved all our furniture and other items efficiently and without any damages or issues, taking all the necessary safety precations. Our stuff was stored in two locations (in a condo building and in a self-storage) and they took all the items from both locations without problems. Thank you very much! I would recommend them to everybody who needs moving services!

Excellent job by The Healthy Abode! There was a water damage in my condo apartment after a water leak from the above floor. The contractors (hired by the insurance company) were very neglectful and allowed asbestos-containing material and mold to be left in the apartment after the water damage remediation was over. I contacted The Healthy Abode, and Angelina and Vince were very helpful in making all the necessary arrangements and testing for asbestos and mold. Their measurements were carefully executed and the reporting was thorough. I hired other construction contractors to remove the mold and asbestos, and The Healthy Abode againd helped me to confirm asbestos/mold-free environment after this work was completed. I would recommend everybody to use their services.

Joe appeared in my condo apartment to look at my bathroom undermount sink, that needed replacement. He promised to give his estimate soon but that never happened. I contacted the company a week after his visit, but nobody got back to me with any estimate or with notification/explanation that they could not take this job.

Incredible job! The original blinds in my 40-year old condo apartment finally needed replacement and Omri did excellent job in making the necessary measurements for two windows (one large - approx 6 m wide and another half this size), helping me to choose very good new blinds, and then in ordering/delivering and installing the blinds. The first window blinds were replaced 9 months ago, the second one - a couple of months ago. Both of the blinds have been working properly all the time since the installation and my family enjoys them. Omri was friendly, very efficient, professional and courteous. I would recommend everybody to use his services.

Excellent job! My non-standard (Chinese-made) bathroom undermount sink was cracked and the faucet was not properly working. Michael took time to visit my apartment three times: to give his advice on proper replacement sink (the one that I had bought did not fit) and faucet, to make preparations (after I've bought the proper sink) and finally to install the sink and the faucet. He was very professional, courteous and helpful. I would recommend everybody to use his services.

My wife and me decided to go with Mike of M2R Enterprises not because his offer was the lowest in cost or the fastest in implementation but because we liked his way of discussing/presenting options and solutions. Unfortunately in our experience there is a huge difference between his words and deeds. Below are the major faults that we found so far: 1. Non-safe work - non-secure attachment of HVAC ceiling register cover: when touched, the register got loose and almost fall down - structural integrity compromised: when installing the bathroom exhaust fan, a huge hole was cut in the ceiling structural element - non-secure shower door solution initiated: glass door was cut for a design that allowed the door to hit the porcelain vanity which posed a security risk 2. Improper work - incorrect type of toilet installed: requires purchase of another toilet and replacement of the current one - GFCI outlet installed incorrectly: requires relocation to accommodate medicinal cabinet (with associated patching and repainting the walls) - bathroom vanity installed incorrectly: requires extra work to move it and to re-do plumbing - non-functional installation of HVAC ceiling register: apart from non-secure attachment (see above), the register was permanently blocking the airflow preventing the heating/conditioning of the bathroom and creating non-comfortable conditions for tenants with probable business losses for Homeowners - poor quality painting job: requires re-painting (even without wall patching when GFCI outlet is relocated) 3. Failure to present all available options for major tasks and proceed only after agreement is reached Also worth of mentioning: - resistance to fix incorrect work. As a standard example, in case of the register Mike initially insisted that the register is functional ("the air is forced and would find its way to the bathroom"), then he said that it was impossible to install it correctly (not true). When asked why not to install a register of another type, he answered that only unadjustable type is available as alternative (actually as we found, Lowes sells another type of adjustable register) - attempts to make Homeowners responsible and pay for corrections, i.e. for the toilet of the right type, which would cost additional $400, while existing toilet was bought by the Homeowners based on the Contractor's advice for $300. We paid to M2R Enterprises the deposit of $1,000 and initial installment of $4,000 after some work was done. But eventually we decided to terminate the contract because we consider it a substantial failure on the side of the Contractor through no fault of us. Last notes: after the Contract termination, Mike refused to return the house key immediately and we were forced to rekey the locks. Also he's taken away all the documentation that came with products installed/supposed to be installed in the bathroom: faucets for the sink and shower, vanity, exhaust fan, toilet, bathroom fixtures.

The homeowner's complaints are not valid and represent a blatant attempt to avoid paying for work that has been substantially completed according to a signed contract. All plumbing and electrical work was performed by licensed professionals who followed all applicable codes. The homeowners demonstrated on many occasions a complete lack of knowledge of local building and electrical code and are unqualified to criticize the actions of licensed professionals. Any issues raised not related to plumbing or electrical contractors were minor and of a purely cosmetic nature but the homeowners prevented us from resolving them. We are initiating legal action against the homeowners to recover the remaining amount of the contract and are seeking legal advice on launching a suit against both the homeowners and HomeStars for publishing such a defamatory statement.

Our concrete stairs and front walkway were in very bad shape and porch also needed repairs. We decided to remove the concrete from the walkway and replace it with stone while also using stone to cover the steps and porch. This was a rather big project and we are happy that it was JB Landscaping that did the job. Javier was very knowledgeable and friendly. He took time to make a detailed quote and clearly explain the technology and materials that he was going to use and came up with several useful design ideas. The work started with a little delay because of the bad weather but was finished within several days with Javier and his team working even over the weekend. The price was competitive and the job was completed on budget. Javier was very patient answering all our questions and listening to changes that we were willing to make to the project. We would definitely recommend JB Landscaping to our friends and use this highly professional team again ourselves if we would have another stone job.
