Dunbar & Ross: Consummate professionals!“Dunbar & Ross renovated our kitchen in March 2007. First, David came up with a brilliant design idea that involved the creation of a peninsula and the closing off of a window that only overlooked our neighbors' garbage pails. He also came up with two decorating schemes (so we wouldn't be totally overwhelmed by choice) and asked us to trust him as far as colors, knobs, tiles, etc., and guess what? The result is absolutely wonderful and suitable to our taste and living arrangement, which both Norma and David sensitively understood. Norma has answered all our post-reno questions in a timely manner, and the arrangement for her skilled craftsmen and workers was always on time and on schedule. I know this is a big struggle (the finishing up of projects) but one from which we didn't suffer (not even for a day). Nor were we encouraged to do more renovation work (open up space between the dining room and kitchen) (when we caught the reno bug) than was originally necessary and agreed upon. We think Dunbar & Ross are first-rate consummate professionals. Norma is famous for her color sense as well, and she also picked our house paint colors as an additional bonus! Hats off to a great company.” |

Kitchen renovation experience couldn't be better!“A good company gets the work done on budget, on time and as promised. But a great company handles the glitches that come along, quickly and responsibly without making it the clients problem. Dunbar and Ross is a great company. David designed our stunning kitchen which faces the street in a downtown Toronto neighbourhood. Norma made it happen with her exceptional scheduling abilities and superior trades people. David listened to our needs and gently guided us towards an innovative, functional kitchen design which required opening up our front entrance hall. The results are spectacular. We sit in the living room and can't believe that this is our house. David and Norma kept to our budget. The scheduling of the trades people was spot on and each and every trades person used by this company is highly skilled, helpful and friendly. They also work clean. Norma stayed on top of every installation and immediately corrected small problems that occurred, always in our favour. For example, when too many slate tiles were delivered, Norma took the extra boxes back and credited us for the extra material. We were impressed with the honesty, integrity and good will shown by David and Norma every step of the way. Aside from this, David and Norma are wonderful people who are fun to work with. We recommend Dunbar and Ross for your kitchen renovations without a single reservation. They are THE BEST.” |

My fabulous new kichen“My fabulous new kitchen was just completed by Dunbar and Ross. David and Norma designed and renovated a kitchen for me in a previous house and, as before, this project was on time, on budget and handled expertly and professionally. They helped me though my many indecisions and uncertainties to achieve a truly beautiful end result. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone considering undertaking the challenge of getting a new kitchen. Postscript: Non-existant aftercare - Dunbar and Ross knew the soap dispenser did not operate properly from the day of installation, but did nothing. They have not returned my phone calls and have been totally umcommunicative. Consquently, I would no longer recommend them. The ratings for this review have been downgraded from the original posting” |

Dunbar and Ross are exceptional“I have had Dunbar and Ross renovate or build five bathrooms and 2 kitchens. Needless to say, I am a totally satisfied customer. There were no glitches from the initial consultation to the finished product. I was provided with great design concepts, good workmanship and quality, excellent trades (some of whom vaccuumed daily before leaving),and on budget and on time projects. The professionalism and quality of service exhibited by everyone who designed and worked on these projects was exemplary. The finished products have generated rave reviews. I totally recommend Dunbar and Ross to anyone considering building/renovating a kitchen or bathroom.” |

Dunbar and Ross - the best reno experience I've had“Dunbar and Ross has just finished my kitchen renovation (on time and on budget!!) and my experience dealing with Norma and David and all their subcontractors has been excellent. Compared to two other major renos in other parts of my house, with other contractors, I found Dunbar and Ross professional, easy to deal with and easy to reach during the reno. All the subtrades showed up when they were supposed to, did a professional job and were personable and friendly. Only 2 minor glitches arose during the whole job and they were delt with and corrected immediately. David's design has opened up and modernized my kitchen while still reflecting the 1920's style of my home. I am highly recommending Dunbar and Ross to all my friends.” |

Very disappointed with Dunbar & Ross“As a result of my experience with Dunbar & Ross, I cannot recommend their services. My partner and I didn't have a horrible time with them, but given the scope of the job and its price tag, I expected much more professionalism. In one particularly frustrating instance where the same error occurred twice, the proprietor never apologized for the multi-week delay and in fact, made it clear that our requests to get the right materials were inconveniencing her. Also, they failed to provide the project plan we requested and would "surprise" us with dates. The tradespeople they used for both the electrical and flooring were "OK" we've since had some truly excellent people in to work on other major renos and the contrast was noticeable.” |

Dunbar&Ross... Kitchen Reno Masters“The folks at Dunbar&Ross made our first, large kitchen renovation (Hogg's Hollow) such a pleasant and successful experience, we didn't consider asking for bids for our second Toronto kitchen reno (a more compact, Cabbagetown house) a couple of years later. The design work was creative in both instances, there were no unexpected delays, the various craftsmen were proficient, and there were no surprises in terms of unexpected costs. We have no hesitation in recommending Dunbar&Ross for renos large or small. P and C, Toronto.” |

Dunbar and Ross: Excellent, Reliable Service“Dunbar and Ross recently renovated our kitchen and powder room and were an outstanding company to deal with. They took care of everything from designing the kitchen, providing the materials, arranging for the various trades and closely monitoring the progress of the renovation. David spent time with us discussing our wish list and his design was innovative and met our individual needs. Norma's scheduling talents were superb. She identified the dates of the various trades people well in advance and they were right on time. The quality of the cabinets and workmanship were excellent. Follow up service (for very minor questions and issues) were handled promptly. I highly recommend Dubar and Ross to anyone looking for a headache-free renovation experience!” |

David at Dunbar & Ross is truly an expert kitchen/bathroom designer“David is an expert kitchen/bathroom designer, and as this was our first time we had to go through this process, we fully relied on David's advice and expertise. We very much enjoyed the design process as David kept us focused and ensured he understood what our needs were. The end result is a beautiful kitchen and bathroom that exceeded our expectations. Not only is the kitchen/bathroom beautiful, but it is a very functional too - we get rave reviews from our friends and family. As well, the quality and workmanship are great, and we know we will enjoy our kitchen and bathroom for many years to come. ” |

My experience“I had Dunbar & Ross Limited do a kitchen renovation for me that was quiet extensive. The entire project was a positive experience. They told me exactly what to expect in terms of timing and, I must say, they were exactly to the day.All their trades people were a pleasure to have in my home. They looked after absolutely everything, from start to finish (even selecting the colours for the walls)I didn't have to do a thing!I had them come back and redo my master bathroom for me... it looks like a picture in a magazine. I would highly recommend them and their team to anyone.” |
