J & R Aluminum

I hired Rob and his team at J&R Aluminum to supply and install rigid insulation, siding, window flashing and new eaves on my newly purchased, in much need of repair, semi-detached home in the Riverdale neighbourhood in Toronto.

Rob and his team were initially quite responsive. The work was done in three days. I had the opportunity to be home during those three days, so I paid attention to the work that was being done.

I caught a number of minor errors during the three days, which was corrected immediately.

I didn't notice until afew days later (when it rained) was they installed an eavestrough incorrectly, such that the water flowed away from the side with the downspout and instead pooled on the other side of the eaves (eventually leaking through the seams and dripping like crazy). Rob quickly came back to repair this.

After I paid the fees in-full, I encountered another minor error that was a major pain. It turns out they accidentally put rigid insulation and siding over my clothes dryer vent - effectivly sealing in the vent.

I ended up having to fix this myself (which was disapointing).

I promised I would update this post if anything developed. Rob followed up with me afew weeks ago to apologize for the problem.

I was impressed that he followed-up (in my experience, most contractors would stick their heads in the sand). Rob's an honest guy, he did good work for value. I think my experience was unusual in this respect.

I have dealt with Robert numerous times and have been pleased with his service each & every single time. From start to finish Rob has been very helpful explaining what needs to be done and how to keep costs affordable. Once everything was explained and the deal was done, he came in with his crew to set-up and made sure from time to time the site was clean and things were running smoothly. I was very pleased when he would come by to checkup on his crew and make sure that I'm happy with the way things were moving along. Would recommend J&R Aluminium to anyone who needs face lifts to their porperty. My neighbours were smart & jumped on it when they saw what was going on at my place. Thanks for the Great work Robert!!!

I called seven Eavesthrough Companies finally I chose J & R Aluminum because of representation of the work that must be done and the reasonable quotation.
Rob Sowa provides excellent advice and insights, very polite and friendly and great to work with. He and his team provided top quality work that I am so pleased with. At the end of each day they kept the work site clean. They were very professional; work was done timely and on budget and most of all excellent quality. We would hire them again and recommend to others.

After checking out several companies and after my meeting with Rob Sowa I decide to give the contract of replacing gutter and installation of soffit and fascia to Rob and his team (J & R Aluminum) because of the good and honest representation along with details of work and very reasonable pricing much less than the other competitors. I found these guys very professional, organized and communicative from the first phone call through quote, job, and cleanup.

Excellent job performed with very resonalbe price and polite and professional staff.

Always responsive quickly to enquiries by phone.

Very impressed by the clean job they did on the site and never left anything for us to clean after all work was done.

I had my eavesdrop and gutters done by J & R Aluminum and i have to say that i was really impressed with the quality and craftsmanship, effort they put when doing my gutters. The price was really reasonable and chris was polite and professional, and chris always returned my calls.

I was very pleased that Rob answered the phone and not a secretary. He came that same day and gave me a written quote on the spot. He was very professional and knowledgeable, and gave me a good price. Rob and his crew came on time and finished the job with high standards. They were very respectful of my neighbors and left my property spotless. I would highly recommend Rob to anyone.

we had previously used this company and were reasonably satisfied with the job ultimately performed, though the workers arrived a day later than originally agreed and took longer than estimated. when we called to discuss another issue, they promised to come by to assess on a specific day. now a week later and another phone message later, we have neither heard nor seen anything of these guys.

Rob was on time to quote, beat the competitions price, and did a timely install with a 5yrs garauntee on product.Clean up was perfect. You can't ask for more, give him a call!! HIGHLY recommended!!

After 10 years of rusty gutters and 80's yellow panels I decided it was time for a home improvement, best money I ever spent. Robert was very professional over the phone and was extremely pleasant in person.

He never made me feel under pressure, he just simply explained what he could do to make my house look brand new, and now it really does look brand new. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone that wants to give their homes a facelift.
