Prax in Toronto

Had major renovations along with new ductwork done, so our ducts were filled with drywall and construction debris. We were experiencing poor air quality for a while (and were always worried we caught covid!). Called Dave's Ducts and they had a guy come out in the next couple of days to get everything into shape for us. He wore a mask and took off his boots, which wrre much appreciated. All vents were covered with tacky film prior to prevent dust from flying back out while the technician worked on blowing each one clean one by one. Also had him check on our HRV if it needed any maintenance and he said it looked fairly clean still and that we could save money taking a shop vac to it instead of having someone else do it, which I appreciated. He showed his work after abd I got to see nice begore and afters of sawdust-covered ducts vs shiny clean metal surfaces. Overall excellent service and am glad I used them so my family can breathe better.

When I was first getting estimates for electrical for my house (~ 3000SF with basement included), I was using a GC. The price was wildly outside my expectations and budget (roughly 40k after 20% GC fees). I knew I had to contract out the electrical myself and Evolve Electrical Services--Eugene in particular--was not only the fastest company to respond but also asked the most questions and prepared the quote fastest. Not only that, but he provided the most reasonable quote, which was less than half of my original quote! Relying on Homestars reviews as well, I had a good feeling about relying on Evolve Electrical Services. Eugene was efficient, enthusiastic, and knew what he was doing to get my 100 year old home completely rewired and upgraded to 200amp service. As often happens with major renovation projects, we ran into some snags regarding logistics as I was juggling other trades along with the disaster that was the pandemic, but Eugene was always accomodating, responsive, and went the extra mile to make sure things were done right, to code, with quality products and all the permits and lisences required. Wouldn't hesitate to use his company's services again, and in fact plan to, as I need a bunch of light fixtures installed in a few weeks. :P

We needed tree removal services for a Toronto property for construction purposes that was on a boundary shared with a neighbour. We already obtained permits before hand after many bureaucratic delays! The tree was a White Spruce about 50cm in diameter and close to fencing and property. Mr Tree Man (James the president of the company) was very prompt with giving quotes and responding to questions through email. Replies often came within 15 minutes, day or night, which is unbelievable and excellent compared to the City of Toronto handling our paperwork! And this was right after a windstorm in the GTA causing issues for many people. They managed to find time to squeeze me in despite it not being emergency services. About 3 workers came with tools and wood chipper to down what I think was an over 70ft tall tree within 6 hours of work, safely and efficiently. Tree limbs and debris were cleared, and both our and neighbour properties are pretty much unscathed. Payment was easy-peasy and painless (cash, cheque, or e-transfer. I used e-transfer). Would recommend them to anyone. As an added note, they contract out stump removal services, so that will be extra.
