Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

My husband and I had for many years debated on how we would improve the outside of our house which had been modified from its original style back in the 80"s. The brick work was dated so we had it changed to stucco and had extensive landscaping done which included new front stairs and resurfacing of the porch. With all this going on there was something missing. A visit to Dufferin Iron and Railings showroom showed us how the right railings could make or break the project. With the help of Dennis we were able to design just the right railings to dress up and complete our project. We also had a number of gates made in different sizes to close off our backyard to secure it for our next project the hot tub. With the introduction of the Blue and Grey Bins, living in downtown Toronto we have limited clearance and were unable to put our bins anywhere else but at the front of the house which just did not work with our new look, so leaving the design up to Dennis we asked him to make us an enclosure that would keep the bins partially hidden but still allow us easy access to deposit waste or to move the bins to the curb on pick up day. He created a functional and decorative piece which we have received many complements on. We are extremely happy with the work we had done by Dufferin Iron and Railing and our experience in dealing with the staff was always pleasant. I would highly recommend them for your railing needs, keeping in mind that they are able to do so much more with there product.

Railing for Outdoor Porch

After 22 years in our house, Maria and I decided it needed a new porch, and our contractor, Dave Krafchik of Custom Stonescapes, suggested we contact Dufferin Iron & Railings to install the outdoor railing. We often have different ideas on design but when we visited Dufferin's showroom, we were able to reach agreement very quickly thanks to Oliver's facilitation skills. He clearly knew the topic inside out and the fact that we both had complete confidence in his abilities was instrumental in reaching a decision. The installation went smoothly and we now have fabulous railings to complement a fabulous porch. Great job, guys.

Backyard Fence

This was the second time I hired Dufferin Iron. Oliver is not only a salesman - he's a hands on coordinator and does everything in his power to ensure that the customer is happy and satisfied. I highly recommend this company and want to personally thank Oliver for a beautiful job - the fence looks great.

Replacement Railing

What a great experience dealing with Oliver and the team at Dufferin Iron. From the initial call to Oliver, looking through the website to get ideas and a quote, to meeting with Oliver and having him spend the time with us to help us select our final product, to the installation, it all went so well..

The finished product has a quality look and feel about it that was designed, built, and installed by craftsmen who take pride in their work.

Porch and stair railings

It was a pleasure dealing with Oliver: he's honest, personable, professional, knowledgeable, prompt and reliable. He listened to my needs and requirements for this project, provided a very fair quote in return, and an accurate estimated time frame to complete this project. The website gallery also was of great help in helping me choose a style - so many nice styles to choose from! The workmanship, craftsmanship and quality materials that were used throughout were excellent. His team did a fantastic job with the installation: they worked quickly & efficiently, they were polite, professional and respected my property. My new railings are solid, sturdy, safe and will last for many years to come. I received excellent value for my money.

Juliet Balcony

Oliver at Dufferin Iron and Railings came out twice to measure and to make sure of our order for our Juliet balcony. Oliver made some suggestions that actually saved us money.
John and his team arrived at the specified time on the specified date. The balcony fit perfectly and they installed it quickly and efficiently. They even touched up the paint (as I discovered when I admired their handiwork.)
