River Reed Contracting

We hired Cory for our main bathroom renovation. He completed demolition, drywalling and tiling. We found Cory to be a kind, honest, and meticulous worker. Because of these qualities, we were comfortable with him in our home and he delivered a beautiful end product- which isnt easy in a 100 year old Toronto home. This project had various moving parts and many bumps along the road Cory was always available to support our questions and provide his expert insights. Thank you Cory for our new bathroom!

We hired Cory to complete a partially finished basement bathroom. He was kind and understanding during our initial phone call. After a site visit we were provided a very thorough quote and detailed project schedule. We had our heart set on penny tiles for our floor and although many people told us they were hard to lay flat Cory approached the challenge with confidence and did an excellent job. Our entire job took a number of twists and turns, but Cory was gracious and helped where and when he could. The finished product is excellent and the quality of work is exactly what we hoped for. We would definitely hire Cory again.

We had a challenging project and Cory provided us with a clear working plan, detailed schedule and realistic price. We were quickly convinced that he understood the challenge/task and that he would deliver exactly what we needed. The washroom tile work is beautiful, and we couldn't be happier with the result. Cory is extremely talented and should be proud of his Art . We are happy to get our clean house back, but we will miss Cory's presence in the house. He is a fantastic person to work with. We highly recommend him for any new project you may have.

Cory was amazing to work with. He was upfront with his detailed approach and how he will complete the job. Corys attention to detail with waterproofing as well as the tile work is simply amazing. I recommend Cory to both home owners as well as contractors. There is no need to look for anyone else.

Once again, Cory exceeded expectations. His attention to detail is amazing. The quality of work speaks for itself. This is the 5th job I have done with River Reed and they have all been positive. I have the benefit of seeing how his work hold up over time and it is excellent. THank you Cory!! I look forward to the next project

We expanded our kitchen (moved stairs) and needed our new kitchen floor tiled. It turned out that the old floor below was about 6 levels. Most people wouldnt take it on. River reed made a plan.. flattened the floor enough to tile it perfectly with chevron tiles. It honestly could not look more perfect. We are so happy with it. We didnt think it could ever look this good. Attention to detail, perfectionist, accountability. Highly recommend.

Cory did fantastic work on our bathroom reno, taking it from totally run down to spectacular. All throughout, he showed himself not just really good at the craft (especially tile setting), but friendly, dependable, and excellent at communicating different possibilities with their pros and cons. Cory is very detailed-oriented and makes sure that all jobs are completed to the highest demand, he is considerate, and it's always worth listening to his suggestions and advice: he opened us to options that we had not considered and which made a really good impact on the final product (like the herringbone pattern for the floor tiles). In our reno, he also went beyond the external aesthetics and made sure that the underlying condition of the cramped bathroom in our very old house was left in a much better situation than it was (solid framing, good insulation and waterproofing, perfectly level floor). The job, as often happens, went through some unexpected delays (through no fault of Cory's) when poor underlying conditions needed to be remedied and other subcontractors did not keep to their schedule; in these situations Cory was just as helpful and level-headed, which contributed to our peace of mind in this stressful situation. Overall, Cory did an excellent job and was an extremely pleasant person to have around, I would certainly recommend him for similar jobs.

Cory did a wonderful job on our bathroom tile install. He really knows his stuff with the Schluter system. He is honest, dependable and responsive and clearly cares about doing a great job. The finished job exceeded our expectations!

Cory kindly reached out to me to offer his help after hearing about my botched bathroom remodel started by another contractor. Cory was provided a very detailed quote to redo the shower stall. The work involved removing the previous contractor's work, reframing, and tiling the shower stall, niche, and bench. I was very pleased with Cory's professionalism and communication. He always made sure that I was happy during each stage of the process. His tile work is top notch and I would highly recommend him for all of your tiling needs.

We were very happy to work with Cory from River Reed Contracting. Right from the beginning, there was clear communication - he was very responsive and clear. He is very attentive to detail, which shows in the precision of the tile work. Our basement bathroom is now brighter and more welcoming. Our front foyer is no longer squeaky when you walk on it. It was a great experience, and we would definitely work with him again.
