Fence & Deck Project - Summer 2017
Toronca is a trustworthy, reliable and professional contractor for Decks & Fences. When we moved into our new build home, we were looking to build the fence and a deck in the summer of 2017.
The Fence Project.
I took the lead and co-ordinated with my 18 neighbours and reviewed quotes from 5 different contractors eventually our neighbourhood collectively selected Toronca based on quality, references and our desired time commitment. The entire fencing for 18 homes was completed in less than a week, they are well organized and 3 teams of workers systematically got the job done. Each home got a gate with a wrought iron window and the fence design we chose provides excellent privacy.
PROS: Professional, Good Workmanship, Competitive Prices.
CONS: Slight delay in getting the project started but once they did, it was done in a week.
Above & Beyond: It is quite a challenge to have 18 familes commit to a large expense and as such Toronca offered a couple of homes flexible payment options, which really helped get everyone on board. Most importantly they were so flexible we only paid after the job was done, no advance was required either. This is a sign of a stable and financial solvent contractor no doubt.
The Deck Project:
I was looking for a wrap around double deck because we have a walkout basement and worked on the design with Toronca, they had really good suggestions and they built the deck in two stages, the upper deck believe it or not was built in 2 days, the first day the entire upper wood section was completed and the 2nd day was used to install the glass railings and the staircase.
The 2nd stage was The lower deck which also took about 2 days with the installation of the glass railing and a couple of gates.
PROS: Deck was built with precision and is completely level and flush with the home. The glass railings provide a great view and were done to ensure gaps between glass panels are no larger than 3 inches for safety.
CONS: There was a bit of a wait after materials arrived and work actually began, but then again they do such a good job it's worth the little delay.
Above & Beyond: As an after thought I figured it would be a good idea to convert the bottom of the deck stairs landing into a dog house for my Great Danes and they did such a good job of it, cost me a little extra but was totally worth it.
Overall:
I'm very pleased with the way everything turned out, I've attached a few pictures to show before the fence and deck were built and how it looks now. Note every fence you see in these pictures was built by Toronca, the entire row of 18 homes in Brampton (Missisauga Rd & Steeles).
Recommendation:
I highly recommend Toronca and like me I'm certain you will be pleased with the way your fence and deck project turns out. If you'd like to see for yourself, I'm happy to oblige. Wish you a wonderful Summer 2018 and all the best with your outdoor projects.
