Tracey in Calgary - Discovery Ridge

Kiai owns and operates Amamazing Grace so maybe that's why he and his assistant marlon are the best movers I have had. I've moved 12 times in my adult life including 2 long distance moves so I am. It kidding when I say these guys are he best. They give much needed credibility to the moving industry. This was a downsize from a large home to Hey a 2 bedroom apartment for 600$ and a move to our main home in Nelson BC. The price for both moves was hourly and for the Nelson move a hotel and gas. Very reasonable and half what big steel box wanted to drop a sea can in Nelson and then we unload! They put all the furniture together. Highly recommended

Reid McCord is the owner operator of Alberta Rug and he took over from his Dad. Thats why he is the best - pride of workmanship. Reid does all my wall to wall and area rugs twice a year (one heavy traffic and one all over) and he is hands down the best. He has got stains out by by teenagers I was sure would never be removed. He even advised us on the best carpet to purchase in terms of keeping it cleaner and looking good (not wool and get stainmaster!). I have referred Reid to all my friends and they love him to. Reid told me about online reviews to find contractors for other things I needed done and its been great.

I live in Calgary and hired Service Master to clean all my parents furniture in Victoria prior to them moving into a private assisted living facility. I called Service Master because living in Calgary I did not have any referrals and I did not yet know about Homestars but I knew the Service Master name. The furniture was quite old and the 2 chairs were stained - all I wanted for them was to be clean, we knew stains would not come out. The furniture was "cleaned" and then moved at the end of May. When I arrived to help with the move the 2 chairs clearly had not been cleaned or even vacuumed. There was obvious debris under the cushions. In fact it was the retirement home cleaning staff that pointed it out. I had to pay for them to clean it properly that day since it can be moved in dirty. We called alan the owner at Service MAster that Saturday at about 5 pm and he was on his way home and not interested in helping us even though we explained we were in the middle of moving my elderly parents - we could not wait until Monday. Not only did they not help, Alan was rude. I was told they were closing and we were out of luck and I could wait until Monday. . When I got back to Calgary I called the owner "Alan" who said he would get back to me and of course never did. I called again today and sounding impatient and irritated he said the technician insisted it was done. They offered to clean them again which at this point is not necessary - they had that opportunity the day we discovered the problem but were not interested in fixing it then. I feel my parents were taken advantage of because they are in their eighties and basically I was ripped off. In addition Alan said my parents retirement home - Sunrise - was a client. Sunrise used to be a client but told me they are no longer because of problems exactly like this one. All I wanted was a credit for the 2 chairs not all the furniture. I hope it was worth it because I will be telling everyone I know never to use service master. AS a business person I could not imagine doing this. The only positive out of this experience is that my carpet guy here in Calgary told me about Homestars and I now use it for everything!
