Gloria in River Oaks

I was looking for under padding for a small project and was turned down by 2 other companies that I contacted. I described to Steve what I required and he not only replied promptly but was able to deliver exactly what I needed. The driver dropped off the under padding and even pre-cut all the pieces for me. Fabulous service, very courteous, wonderful to deal with. I know my project was really small but Steve treated me with respect and came thru as promised. Thank you so much, I’m so grateful.

We moved into our home in 2013 and our house had the original windows which were over 20 years old. In the winter time we would get frost on the inside of our windows as well as a draft. We finally decided to replace all the windows in our house. We did about half our windows the first time around and then a year later we did the rest. Our original windows were a yellow/beige facing the street and our consultant advised us that it would be about 30% cheaper to go with standard white which actually looked better anyways. We are very happy with our windows and they were installed quickly and professionally. We also have a lifetime warranty against defects.

We were getting our house ready to put on the market and our agent suggested Johnny to clean our stairs. He did 3 flights of stairs and an area rug 9x12. I wish we had did this earlier as the stairs and rug looked fabulous. Johnny is very personable and even gave us helpful hints on getting blood out of rugs (if we should ever get any on it). I would definitely recommend him to friends and family. He mainly works out in the west end however he made the exception for us and charged a minimal travel expense which we were happy to pay (and glad we did just to meet him).

We hired Mackie Moving Systems when we decided to move out of our 600 sqft condo downtown to a 1600 sqft house in Scarborough. We had a 6 month old baby and my wife was pregnant with our second. Cindy and Shelly worked hard to assure our move was as painless and stress free as possible. You'd be surprised at how much one can store in a condo (with a storage unit) -- I certainly was when we started to prepare for the move. The movers were reliable and efficient. Our boxes were all labelled so that they would know where to put each box when they arrived at our new house. I would recommend them to my friends and family (which I have). I won't be moving again anytime soon but when I do, I know who I'll be calling.

We purchase the Legare Frog twin bed for our son when he turned 15 months so that we could transition him to a "big boy bed" before his baby brother arrived. The bed was easy to assemble (took less then 10 minutes) and looks great. Requires no tools to assemble and is very sturdy. Highy recommend. Not just for kids as the company stated the bed can with hold upto 800 pounds.

24/7 technical support. I have used them over the years for different issues and they are always up-to-date and knowledgable whether it's PC related, Apple releated or even Blackberry issues. Quick response time. Highly recommend. Larry is my IT go-to guy. Most recently he transfer all the data from my old computer to my new laptop as well as configured my laptop to work with an exchange server.

When we purchased our home we decided to get a home inspection even though the house was only 1.5 years old. I found Tony's company just by doing a search on Google. Of the 3 companies I spoke to, he seemed the most helpful so I booked the appointment. Tony was very knowledgable and took his time. The inspection took about 3 hours. The next day Tony sent us our report. The report summary page contained the items which needed attention. The most important item he discovered being the lack of a ground wire not attached to a proper ground. The other items were fairly easy fixes. He also sent us a link with the info regarding our very 'new tech' furnace/ hot water tank unit. This information is valuable to the service technicians who should service your unit yearly. Let them know what you have before they make their service calls as some technicians aren't familiar with these units. I did actually recommend Tony to my mother in-law when it came time to have her house inspected. A++++

We purchased the above and had it installed and it looks beautiful. The price includes 920 sqft of flooring and installation. Price did not include the quarter round and installation of the quarter round (which cost an additional $200).

We moved into our townhome and decided to take advantage of the renovation rebate so we decided to have an AC unit installed as well as a central humidifier as we had just had hardwood put in. We got the Lennox 14 seer R410A air conditioning unit and the Honeywell HE225 humidifier. Price also included full installation, AC unit cover and patio stone for the unit. Plus they offer $50 referral program which my neighbour and I split. Bonus!

I called around for the best price for opener and installation. A friend recommended Canimaxx Systems. We purchased the Liftmaster 3585 garage opener and with installation it came to just under $400. We haven't had any problems at all with it and the installation took less than an hour. Highly recommend.

Construction quality is fair and the unit works mostly as designed. This is not a super bright light if you are looking to find contact lenses on the pavement at night, but 150 watts is 150 watts and that's what you get. And actually I did not want it to be super bright because as a result of it being to sensitive. I do have it set to a low sensitive and have decided I can live with the occasion hiccup (meaning sometimes it comes on even when there is no movement outside that I can see. Works well as a standard light. Flip off and back on and it stays on. Toggle again and it goes back to its movement sensing mode. You can pay a lot more for the same product and still get the same quality and operation. Recommend.

Our family room is on the main floor of our third story home. Due to improper installation of insullation, the family room is un-used in the winter months. This summer I was talking to a friend about replacing the carpet in the family room and he suggested cork. I had never heard about cork for flooring so after some extensive research on the internet I decided to go ahead with cork. It is environmentally friendly and cheaper than hardwood AND has insullating properties which has made a hugh difference. Plus it also looks great and is easy to clean. It took 2 days to install but it was well worth it and fairly easy as a DIY project.
