Ashton Renovations

Mark and his team were amazing to work with. They pretty much renovated our entire house. We have received many compliments on the quality of work. They paid attention to tiny details that we didnt even think of. Mark kept us up to date on the progress of our project and retained excellent professionals to complete work in our house. We felt very comfortable working with Mark. All of the people that Mark sent to work in our home were great--respectful and paid attention to detail. We would definitely contact Mark for future projects and wouldnt hesitate to recommend him.

Our builder-built master ensuite shower needed replacement after only 5 years in use. We retained Ashton Renovations for the work following review of company website and discussions with Mark. We were pleased with Mark's professionalism and impressed with the initial design and his suggestions for the shower. The workmanship on the shower was excellent and we are very happy with the final product. The work was undertaken very cleanly and with minimal disturbance to the rest of the house. We would use Ashton on any future work

I've used Ashton Renovations on previous projects and was happy with the quality of the work. I hired Mark back to update an old porch and to landscape the front yard. The porch was covered with limestone, a cedar railing and staircase was added, an interlocking pathway was laid leading up to the staircase and a new flower garden was added with hedges, stones and plants. They paid attention to details such as overhanging the limestone and creating a drip edge as well as slopping the walkway to ensure water runs off away from the house. I'm very happy with the result of the project and I am likley to hire back Ashton Renovations for future projects. Thanks for a great job!

Mark Ashton and his crew fixed the mistakes of a previous contractor who had left us with a kitchen nightmare! We were so skeptical of contractors prior to finding Ashton renovations. Mark put in a beautiful cork floor, leveled out our counter tops and re-installed all of our cupboards. They also installed new lighting and finished off the renovation with new baseboards and paint. This was all done for a reasonable price! We can't thank Ashton renovations enough for making our kitchen such a beautiful space. We were skeptical of contractors after our kitchen problems so our recommendation of Mark Ashton does not come lightly. If you want your renovation done right the first time - go with Ashton Renovations.

Ashton Renovations did a remarkable job on my new bathroom and several other jobs in my new house. The work has been done very professionally within the time and budget discussed. The tradesmen that work with Ashton where very professional, respectful and punctual. I was informed of all progress and timing as the job progress. I would highly recommend Ashton Renovations.

I found Ashton Renovations through HomeStars, and selected them as a potential contractor based on the favorable reviews. After meeting with several contractors the choice was clear, Mark provided a detailed quote with costs itemized, timelines and potential of additional expense and areas of concern.

Throughout the project Mark ensured I was kept informed and involved in the decision making. The project remained on schedule and budget. I most appreciated the crew’s attention to detail and how clean they kept the worksite.

The project involved renovating a kitchen in a 100+ year old home, this in itself created limitations but Mark was focused on providing my contemporary design while appreciating the character/nuances of an older home.

I would have no hesitation recommending Mark and his crew to anyone considering renovations and I would hope to complete another project with Ashton Renovations in the future.

Having lived through various renovations (kitchen, main floor bathroom, hallway and family room using recommended contractors from family and friends through the years the results and experiences were not always pleasant! We delayed a needed renovation to our ensuite bathroom as we did not have confidence in a contractor. We turned to Homestars and found Ashton Renovations ranked very highly and decided to interview the owner Mark Ashton. We were impressed with his professionalism, honesty, and communication skills. We hired Mark Ashton having complete confidence in his abilities of himself and his crew. We were not let down by him and his team!

It was an extensive undertaking and even included some unforeseen repairs to the original plumbing, insulation and vapour barrier. Work was also done to relocate a heating vent and repair floor joists in the shower.

Our new bathroom now includes a stand alone tub, with a glass enclosed shower that has opened up the previously cramped space. The shower features a rainhead, shower arm, and thermostatic control with Caesarstone thresholds and shelving. The double wall hung vanity and cabinet also add to the modern simplicity of the design. Because the bathroom has two exterior walls we also opted to include a Flextherm in floor heating to ensure our comfort in the space. We believe the real beauty of this bathroom is the contrasting colours and simplicity of the design.

The renovation turned out better then we ever had dreamed of even with the unexpected problems that were found in our existing bathroom. We highly recommend Ashton Renovations!

I chose Ashton Renovations from 3 contractors I received quotes from, largely on the basis of the sense of trust that Mark engendered when we met. Mark gave the most detailed quote and was careful to explain the limitation and constraints that would be faced in renovating my 90 year bathroom and gave me good awareness of some potential areas that might lead to additional cost during the work (eg. potential for asbestos). Overall, the renovation went smoothly, and any issues were resolved to my satisfaction and Mark consistently followed up when anything wasn't going according to plan to ensure a resolution. I was quite comfortable to have his work crew in the house when I wasn't home and felt that things were in good hands with Mark at the helm. The renovation did take longer than initially expected, but this was offset by the good workmanship and additional work that was put in to deal with problems that arose (eg part of the ceiling below the bathroom came down due to fragility from prior water damage and this was very effectively repaired). The final bathroom looks wonderful and is much more functional than the old one. Mark gave several good suggestions that helped ensure a cohesive design that is sympathetic to the age of the house, while providing total modern convenience. I would be happy to recommend Ashton Renovations to friends and family.

We discovered Ashton Renovations while doing research on HomeStars for a reputable company… We met Mark and proceeded to work with him and his team.

We are very satisfied with his knowledge, professionalism and work ethic. He was extremely responsive to our calls and questions. The new kitchen turned out beautifully as did all the hardwood floors throughout the house. We would be more than happy to continue to do business with Ashton Renovations in the near future.

In the course of our recent house renovation, We realized that we also had to replace our closets.

We looked at a variety of closet organizing systems but were finding them to be very expensive. Mark Ashton, our contractor suggested the Easy Track hanging closet system. It was half the cost of the other options, it came in a variety of finishes and had lots of options.

Since it hangs on the wall, it's more economical than structures that sit on the floor. The online design tool allows you to plan exactly how you want your closet to look.

We ordered the system through Ashton Renovations, an Easy Track distributor and got a great deal. Installation went smoothly. They paid attention to detail and did a top notch installation.

Very pleased with the results
