Caution if considering Bathroom Renovation/Installation Services with Lowe's Mississauga!

I am posting this as a caution to anyone considering reno work with Lowe's Canada at the Mississauga Mavis Location. I contracted with this store, to complete two bathroom renovations based on previous excellent experience with the Etobicoke store renovating a kitchen several years ago. This was a straightforward condo renovation - simple demo and replace job, nothing moved. It has taken over a year to finish two bathrooms and none of the issues were covid or supply related. All issues were installation and quality issues with Lowe's provided contractor including tile floors having to be installed 3 times, incorrectly installed plumbing, vanities and countertops, and store issues (product that was shipped to me was defective, damaged, or used by the store). The two baths were at a cost of approx. $46,000 certainly not basic renos. My message to Lowe's Canada - you have major home improvement work to do to your own installs service. I most certainly would not recommend considering Lowe's Canada to do any bathroom renovation work. I learned the hard way and have posted this to caution others who can hopefully learn from my experience.

Variety in selection

We purchased all of our supplies from Lowes for our backyard project. We found that the gravel we needs, the material (construction and finishing) were very well prices. Also, the furniture and fire table was great, a style not found elsewhere and great quality. The discount we received was a big surprise and we are more than pleased.

Don't Order Online from Lowe's Unless You're Prepared for Errors

Ordered from lowes.ca and fulfilled for delivery by Nepean and Orleans stores. Not once, but twice, was the wrong item sent. They sent cheaper model x3 initially. Called, had to go through return process before they could ship new ones out. Went through that, got replacements, and they sent cheaper model yet again. Still waiting to go through the return process for that and in the meantime I'm out the money. Agent on phone said they'd follow up, Didn't. Get a random call a week later from someone else who was rude and unhelpful. Also took over a week for other items for delivery to ship.

Great Variety, Great Prices, Great Staff

I have spent a fair amount on home renovation materials in the last year or two. Most of our shopping is done at Lowe's. Their prices are good, staff are friendly, some are more knowledgable than others, but that is to be expected with a big box store. They have made special requests to manufacturer's for us and gotten back to us in a timely manner. They price match, so they really can't be beat (on products or brands that they sell). Their online system is also very good, easy to search products, has even more variety. Store pickup is convenient, but slow at times, I cannot complain though as it saves me the time of searching up and down the aisles. This is my go to store for home reno.

Wall Tiles, backerboard, plumbing

The new Lowes store on Hunt Club road was a wonderful source of products and important info and tips from experts to enable us to create a stand-out bath reno from under-floor to ceiling. It was slow but very worthwhile and we are thrilled with the result.

Double sink vanity

I went to Lowe's to purchase a double sink marble top vanity that I have had my eyes since the last time I was there. After speaking to the worker there, it turned out that I had to put an order in because they were out of stock. I was disappointed but no problem, did that and it was to be picked up in two weeks or so. I received the call to pick it up. Once I got there, it turned out to be the wrong one and I needed it asap because of the availability of my subcontractor. The manager was called and he apologized. He offered to give me $180 for my troubles (I lived in the West and this store was in East, before they open one at my end). I had to put the order in again, but I think I can deal with it after the sincere apology and credit bonus. Overall, the customer satisfaction guarantee was respected and I will go there again.

staining a fence

Went to Lowes store to buy wood stain for our 300 feet fence. The service was very good, the staff answered all our questions concerning the different products. Plus, the wood stain was on sale, we saves 30%! Will definitively go back. The service was fast and the staff very courteous.

Paint

Tried Valspar paint for the first time as recommended by the wonderful staff in the paint department. I was more than just pleased with the results. Will never use any other paint product again!
