Simply put our tank-less hot water heater was acting up. My house is all girls and shower time is important - you guys with daughters will know what I mean. I called a few places, many did not service tankless, more did not venture pass Oshawa. I called Ashton Heating, I am glad I did, first, they answer their phones, yup - an actual person who was pleasant answered the phone; second, they are quick to set an appointment; third, they KNOW what they are doing. Bill is polite, understanding and communicates the issues. I do not hesitate in recommending his services. People still appreciate a "personal" approach to the service industry and Bill has it in spades. One final note: Bill made himself available through the holiday season to make sure all was ok - thank you again!

As the title says we had our fascia, soffits and gutters replaced in our home of 4 years. The builder quality of these items were average. Home Doctor GTA was one of the few companies who actually returned a phone call and booked an appointment for both evaluation and quote. We were surprised by the number of companies who have websites offer services but take such a long time in responding to quote requests - Home Doctor is not one of them. Shaun, HD CEO, explained process, timing and materials involved to our satisfaction; hence, we had no issues in deciding in awarding the job to his company. His crews are polite and prepared to do the job. Work site was cleaned daily and prepped for the next day. Shaun checks up daily on his clients and client requests. No issues from start to finish. We have no problem in recommending this company to others who require this type of work.

In 2014 we hire Rick Hayden, Owner of Hayden Renovations after consulting with a number of other local contractors. One of the key factors that stood out was that Rick went out of his way to be present when quoting and explaining the quote. Additionally, where possible his discounts were passed along to us and explained. While for some this may seem unimportant it goes along way in goodwill when there is a bump in the renovation road, and there are always bumps. As for the important aspects when determining who to hire for your next project - Rick and his crews are on time, normally arriving at 8:30 am and leaving 4:00 pm (crew stayed late when required). Quotes for projects, in my case, were 15% lower than others performing the same tasks. When considering a budget of 10,000 or so this can be an added savings. All of our projects were completed by Rick. Our projects were completed on-time and on budget, critically important for those on a tight or specific budget and crucial if you are borrowing funds from your local financially institution. Finally, some of the things that cannot be quantified are the number of times that Rick came by to make sure our family was ok during the reno process or the number of times when an odd job needed to be completed or during reno something extra needed to be rectified he did so many times without additional charges. Last note, Rick and his crews are polite, well dressed representing the company, punctual, and leave the work organized once they leave. If you are considering a reno I highly recommend a conversation with Rick, and I am sure you will agree that his abilities can fit your vision and pocket book. Note: I have referred Hayden Renovations to other potential clients and happy to report they were equally pleased with his quality of work. Referral is everything in the contracting profession.

In late 2010 we hired Jamie Clark, Owner of Bruce Clark & Sons after consulting with a number of other local contractors. One of the key factors was that Jamie went out of his way to be present when quoting and explaining the quote. Additionally, where possible his discounts were passed along to us and explained. While for some this may seem unimportant it goes along way in goodwill when there is a bump in the renovation road, and there are always bumps. As for the important aspects when determining who to hire for your next project - Jamie and his crews are on time, normally arriving at 8:30 am and leaving 4:00 pm (crew stayed late when required). Quotes for projects, in my case, were 15% lower than others performing the same tasks. When considering a budget of 10,000 or so this can be an added savings or backsplash depending how you look at it. All of our projects were supervised by Jamie and he oversees them regularly. Our projects were completed on-time and on budget, critically important for those on a tight or specific budget and crucial if you are borrowing funds from your local financially institution. Finally, some of the things that cannot be quantified are the number of times that Jamie came by to make sure our family was ok during the reno process or the number of times when an odd job needed to be completed or during reno something extra needed to be rectified he did so many times without additional charges. Last note, Jamie and his crews are polite, well dressed representing the company, punctual, and leave the work organized once they leave. If you are considering a reno I highly recommend a conversation with Jamie, and I am sure you will agree that his abilities can fit your vision and pocket book.
