Mikey brought down a giant tree and property damage occurred on my house and driveway. Mikey’s response and I quote, “nothing about this job has gone the way I wanted.” I asked for wood sheets to be put on my driveway as I knew that branches would fall, and fall they did. Huge heavy branches. My house shook! Right on my driveway. Leaving two holes! Other branches fell damaging my downspout. Other branches fell damaging my garage aluminum. Waaaaaaaaay more care is necessary in order to NOT damage people’s property. So Mike did pay me ten dollars to replace the downspout piece. He did come back with two handfuls of asphalt to fill in the holes in my driveway. And he did screw in a couple of screws on my aluminum iirc. BUT, he would not have had to do all of that IF he had taken much more care in the first place. I specifically asked for wood to be put down. Ignored. Had the wood been put down, I would be able to blow off the other two issues, as they are generally fixable but holes in my driveway (even though repaired) are there PERMANENTLY and an eyesore. A daily reminder. Ugh. Buyer beware. I know he gets a lot of positive but if it’s your house that gets demo’d, how happy will you be?? He gets a 1 because he came back.

So glad Homestars had such great reviews to read about Maple Leaf Garage Doors. Steve was awesome from beginning to end. Personable, and professional. Showed me all my options. No pressure at all. Excellent install. He even came back today to put in a piece of wood along the side wall so my vinyl installation would go better. Thank you. I recommend Steve 110%. Keep up the great work!

I got a referral from Facebook with glowing reviews so came here to double check. Wonderful reviews so got a quote for four bricks to be replaced and tuckpointing in a bunch of places. They got to work and it was done quickly and beautifully. I have referred them to friends and they were happy as well. I need more work done and won’t hesitate to call again! Thx for doing what you said you would do, did it very well, and for a reasonable cost.

Edited to update, July 2020 I booked my usual pool opening service. I had to text a few times, to get a response but not unusual given how busy they are. Service booked and confirmed by text. Confirmed day came and went. I texted again. No response. I text a week later. No response. I text ANOTHER week later. Again, nothing. We just wanted our pool opened by our (formerly) great pool company, Premier Pools. It was the weirdest experience EVER. I have been a customer for many years now and have had a liner replaced and a whole new salt water system replaced by Leni, so have spent a fair chunk of $$ with them. To be completely ignored is unacceptable. I read in the reviews that the same thing happened to someone else. If you’re busy, fine, just let me know but don’t ignore your clients. Not a good way to run your business. *************************************************************************** I noticed my liner had a gaping rip in it yesterday. I emailed a picture to Lenni and he was at my house an hour later, on a Sunday afternoon!!! My neighbours were in shock!!!! Cover removed (and taken away), problem diagnosed quickly and Lenni will come back in a few weeks to open my AGP. Hopefully, the minute hole in the liner will be easy to patch and we can enjoy our little oasis in the city once more! Thank you Lenni and Jodi for coming SO FAST. Now I know why so many rate you so very highly. Amazing service!

Patrick was awesome, from beginning to end. My house had to go on the market fast, but needed a whole host of issues resolved including a sinking kitchen floor. He and his team made it beautiful! There were a lot of small jobs, to make my house "perfect" for selling and perfect it became! It was so beautiful, it was hard to sell it! It sold in 36 hours, in no small part to Patrick's work. He is honest, hard-working and trustworthy. I would not hesitate to recommend Patrick to anyone either needing a small job done, or a large job. Beautiful! I will call him again!!

I've been using Homestars for the last couple of years to find companies. I found this plumbing company on Homestars last night. Flavio came and immediately set to work. He was very courteous, very clean, very intelligent, personable and got the job done! Best part? NO MORE LEAKING tap!! That sucker has been leaking for ever!!! I should have called Flavio ages ago! Highly recommend! I will use his services again.

I was in need of eavestroughing work and came to this site to locate a great company! Found one!!!! Serge came to give me an estimate on my leaf guards a few weeks ago. He told me then that my new-ish gutters weren't level, and that he would "try" to fix that when he came to install my new leaf guards. Serge came back last week to do the install and he spent a lot of time fixing my very badly tilted eavestroughs (to make sure the rain drained properly) before he installed my new leaf guards. Clearly, they weren't levelled properly when they were installed via Toronto`s Downspout Disconnection programme. The install was excellent and he cleaned up after he was done. I wouldn't hesitate at all to recommend him for this kind of work. Outstanding. I wish he'd installed my eaves to begin with!!! We've had two lots of torrential rain since the installation and NOT ONE DROP fell where it wasn't supposed to. That's the first time in 5 years!! Rain used to pour through my dining room window, but not anymore!!! Thank you Serge. A master craftsman to be sure!! I highly recommend him.

Edited in 2020....well, ten years on, the driveway is cracking and sinking. My old driveway, that had been there for over 20 years (not done by ludwig) was in better shape than this mess. My neighbour had a tree removed last fall. A branch dropped on my side of the property line and put two holes in my driveway. Experienced tree cutter said that my driveway was barely 1/2 an inch thick and that’s why it created the holes. In my pictures, you will see dark marks. I had to fill in the holes with tar as the holes kept expanding!!!!! There are split marks in the asphalt all over the driveway. We only park at the bottom. In the centre of the driveway, it is splitting in two! Worst part is that I recommended Ludwig to my neighbour. Same thing is happening to his driveway and I feel *AWFUL* about the recommendation. And, I never got my $100 referral fee either. ************************Update ended******************************* Needed a new driveway after waterproofing was completed. Researched long and hard. So glad to have found this site! Joe was amazing from start to finish. My driveway is exceptional. Rain runs away down the centre in a perfect trickle right onto the street. Perfection!!! I highly recommend Ludwig Paving. Remember folks, you get what you pay for. :)
