Cleaning the Eaves

Promptly provided a quote, did the work the next day. He showed me what came out of eaves and provided suggestions for maintenance. He cleaned up all of the debris and left my property spotless. Price was very reasonable and I will hire again when the time comes.

Waves trough Cleaning

Magic Monkey outsourced to another company and if you have issues, you are left dealing with the sub-contractor even though you paid Magic Monkey directly. I don’t like using companies that are willing to take your money but not stand by the work they are suppose to do or leave you the hassle of dealing with the poor work or not completed work of a sub-contractor. This gutter was supposedly cleaned in the picture.

This "Private User" is complaining about debris accumulating inside his eavestrough 4 YEARS AFTER we cleaned them...Ridiculous. Why are you hiding?

I provided Homestars email correspondence with this person proving that ALL his statements are FALSE although shameful Homestars policy will not remove it. I provided clarification to his misunderstandings and offered a positive resolution which he chose to ignore.

We tried our best to go above and beyond our usual scope in order to make sure this person was satisfied with our work. As the Eavestrough Cleaning was completed almost 5 years ago, it is no longer covered in our 3-year warranty terms (see website for details).

To the reader, if there are any questions regarding this review, please do not hesitate to call us at (416)830-6669.

Regards,
The Magic Monkey Team

Eavestrough - Magic indeed!

Magic Monkey has been keeping our eavestrough clean and flowing for many years. Patrick and his crew arrive as promised, do a tidy job and leave the invoice in the mailbox. He helpfully informed us of the state of our roof (we needed a new one) and of value of leaf guards which he installed a week later. It's a very easy process and a pleasure to deal with such a professional.

Leaf Guard installation + necessary trimming

Patrick at Magic Monkey came highly recommended by a friend, and she didn't steer me wrong: he did great work, including a lot of unforeseen trimming of branches (which he didn't charge extra for). His work was thorough and neat, he took/sent pictures of the whole installation, and he was really easy and positive to work with.

Great On-time Service

Magic Monkey came to my house on time, asked the questions to ensure that I would be satisfied and then diligently cleaned out all of my eaves troughs and put in leaf guards where I asked them to be inserted. I had a great experience with Magic Monkey Inc. and look forward to having them back next year!

Gutter covers

HomeStars installed covers 2 years ago on our second floor gutters and did excellent work, so this year, with new gutters on the first floor, we asked them to do the same again.

No fuss, no muss, Patrick completed the work almost without us knowing he was here, cleaned up after himself, and sent us photos so that we old folk didn't need to climb ladders to inspect it.

Very happy. Will use him again if need arises, and would be glad to recommend him.

Outsourced, unfinished, unavailable

Magic Monkey had a near perfect HomeStars rating a year ago when I called to have my front left eaves leak repaired, my top eaves levelled, cleaned and a downspot installed at the rear.

Long story short, they came to do the job, I paid around a grand, and about 2 weeks later my front eaves began to leak and when there was a heavy rain the top eaves poured over a problem area we had before the job.

When I called for resolution, I wasn’t able to reach the Magic Monkey team on the phone. Eventually someone called me back. Found out a third party, outsourced, company had been doing the work from the beginning. They came back, and reqouted to have the eaves replaced, and said they would take money from the original bill taken off new quote. This didn’t seem right, so I didn’t move forward. The back downspout does work wonderfully.

1 out of 3 ain’t bad. Or is it? When you’ve already paid....

Hi Johnny, our service has never been "outsourced, unfinished, or unavailable" to you.
The same service technician who provided your work from the very beginning on September 1, 2016 was the same person who has contacted you and returned each and every time to your property to discuss your options. We made multiple attempts to contact you by phone and email last year but we did not get ANY response back from you until now - almost 2 years after the date of your original service back on September 1, 2016. I have record of every attempt to contact you including the dates of each phone call and email on file as proof.

Below is the response from your service technician dated June 25, 2018:

Hi Johnny, after honoring the service we provided at your property by returning in attempt to correct the lower front porch eaves, it was determined that a simple "sealing repair" or "realignment" was not going to be efficient to correct your problem. Please be assured that we try very hard to assess each and every repair to the best of our ability but sometimes things require a process of elimination to find the underlying issue. As such we never charged you upon returning each time you had contacted us, we even replaced your lower front eaves outside miter corner at no cost in effort to solve your issue. It was finally determined that simple repairs were not going to solve this problem and so we offered to deduct the full cost of the lower front eaves realignment from your September 1, 2016 service from the November 2016 quote for a full replacement service of the front lower eaves and downspout (as we had done with the rear upper eaves that you say you're happy with).

We wished that you would have reached out with your concerns so that we could come to a better agreement rather then posting an unfair negative review after we came to you with a fair solution.
