We hired Ali to renovate / refresh a century old home that we purchased which was in rough shape after some years of neglect. The work initially entailed two completely renovated bathrooms, some modest work to the kitchen, and new floors and paint throughout, but the scope of work expanded due to some unforeseen (old house) issues and a few additional upgrades we figured we would tackle while we were at it. The project took quite a bit lot longer than planned. To be frank, Ali is not the fastest and he was juggling another project which contributed on some level to the delays, but by and large our project ran long because of complications with the house - crumbling clay pipes, disintegrating plaster walls, uneven sub-floors, old water damage, etc. In the end we were very happy with the outcome. Ali takes great pride in his work, has a high standard, pays close attention to the details and it shows. In many areas he went well above and beyond - spending a great deal of extra time to get the best result. Despite all of the unforeseen challenges, Ali stuck to the budget and did a lot of extra work over and above what we agreed to at no added cost. Ali tackles a lot of the work himself (occasionally re-doing some things his crew members rushed) and he's a jack of all trades. We appreciated his flexibility and ideas, and his willingness to explain things throughout the process. We got to know Ali quite well over the project. He's a really good guy who wanted the best for us and our home. He was patient, always responsive and creative with solutions. We're grateful for the extra work he completed beyond our original scope, and the care he took to complete a reno that we're very happy with. Thank you Ali!

Thank you for the review Andrew, before starting your home you were informed I was in the process of another project and that I was waiting inspections on my other project. Your home did not make it any easier because of the constant natural defects and the crumbling of your home and also I had do a lot of the sections cause your home kept cracking and paints peeling getting fisheye cause of the 2 fireplace releasing smoke which was absorbed by the walls, but I'm glad everything came out great and to my standards and to your liking!

KNT replaced the knob and tube wiring in a century old home we were moving into. The work took about a week. Both Tim and the onsite manager Danny were extremely responsive and the communication with them was excellent from start to finish. Danny and crew onsite arrived on time each day and were very pleasant to deal with. Danny provided updates regularly and was very accommodating. He was patient with all of my questions and offered good suggestions. Costing was transparent and adjustment were clearly explained. We were very satisfied with the end result and quality of work. All-in-all it was a first-rate experience with KNT and we'll be using them again for future electrical needs.

Kevin is fantastic! We were looking for someone to walk us through the new century-old home we recently purchased to help us identify and prioritize areas in need of attention. Kevin did that and then some - spending over 3 hours with us assessing just about every element of the house and answering our many, many questions. He is very easy to talk to, patient, friendly; a great guy all around - not to mention extremely knowledgeable, professional and thorough. He had a very detailed report prepared the same day as the inspection, and communication from start to finish was excellent. Overall, our experience with Kevin well exceeded our expectations. We strongly recommend Wallbank Home Inspections!

I called Dial One in need of some duct cleaning following some renovations. Spoke to Joe on the phone who was very responsive and friendly. Tyler and Rob, who came by to do the cleaning, were professional, knowledgeable and accommodating. My place (factory loft) presented some challenges in terms of access but they were able to work around that no problem. The guys answered all my questions and showed me the debris they were getting out. All around great team and great service. Really happy with the result. Highly recommend using Dial One for duct cleaning.
