40 year old Kitchen Renovation!

I have been meaning to write this review for month about how great Peg Corporation is. I called Peg to help with my parents kitchen IKEA renovation in July of last year 2019 and I was so impressed with their services. My parents had not renovated their kitchen in 40 YEARS!!!! I wanted to use Peg with my own IKEA kitchen renovation but didn't know about them till after but I needed a full renovation company that can do it all from design to install to finished product, so when my parents started showing interest in renovating I called them. Alan, the owner of the company, came quickly to give us a free consultation, he was so kind and professional especially since my parents didn't want to spend much and had no idea what to expect. He gave them 3 options he saw from just looking at their kitchen which all made total sense. He spent so much time at our house and never rushed us, he was so knowledgeable and helpful. He took measurements of the kitchen and after our consult we paid Alan to come up with an IKEA design for us, for $350.00 Alan uses the IKEA planner and came up with some excellent designs, he even was able to figure something out nobody saw, to move the fridge into a closet that housed a duct and that allowed us to open up the whole kitchen! You can't get a design for a kitchen cheaper than this! The IKEA design site is hard for anyone without design experience to use and because of Alan's experience he knew exactly what sizes, dimensions, and suggested what type of cupboards and how deep to use. He spent so much time on the phone with me going back and forth to perfect the design. I also spent many hours on the phone with Michelle, the office administrator and IKEA KITCHEN EXPERT! She was so knowledgeable, helpful, kind and not pushy for us to go with Peg. On top of that, if you go with Peg, they will actually (for a small fee) order all the IKEA kitchen for you. I WISH my parents had gone for this feature, but they didn't and we spent about 10 hours in IKEA and back and forth NUMEROUS times after to buy parts and return parts. Also, they can do a full renovation including floors, countertops, structural, electrical, plumbing. Or they can just do an IKEA build and install. Again, for a fee that was totally reasonable they would order and build and install the IKEA cabinets. My dad of course being super old school decided to do most of the work with a contractor/friend and didn't hire PEG to do the build and install. I again WISH he had, he spent a full week plus putting together cabinets and going back and forth to IKEA! Peg can build and install in about 2 days. My dad also developed sciatica from all the heavy lifting and building and awkward positioning. I asked him after if it was worth saving the money.... I'm still waiting for an answer! :) Either way, it got done, the design from PEG was incredible and their 40 year old kitchen looks like something out of a magazine. I was so impressed with PEG I would recommend them to anyone interested in an IKEA kitchen, if not for the full gut and renovation then for the design and consult, for the ordering and installing. They were even willing to work with my dad and do part of the work and he could do the other parts. They were so flexible and willing to work with us to make my parents happy. It was a pleasure getting the design and learning SO much about IKEA that no rookie IKEA kitchen installer would know. Just because IKEA offers the design plan online, don't think that just anyone can put together an IKEA kitchen!!! Call Peg! Thanks from Dalia, Jeffrey & Brenda! :)

Hit and miss experience with PEG

We had a hit and miss experience with Peg. It started really positively and ended just...meh. The work itself is nice, and we're happy with the kitchen. It just took a lot of effort to get to the completion stage, and the miscommunication that happened throughout was off-putting, and we wouldn't use them again.

Positives: initial walkthrough good, clear timelines and line by line proposal, nice contractors who were respectful of our space.

Negatives: poor communication as the project proceeded, inconsistent handoff between contractors and the office staff who managed the project, which included misquoting costs

Our initial walk through was great - we got a lot of work quoted from them and Allan was very detailed in his assessment of what needed to be done. We had a kitchen planning session at Ikea, where Allan provided measurements for the countertop and adjusted our plans. We were happy to proceed from that point, and we had a lot of back and forward after that with Michelle to identify the work we were going to prioritize, and the timelines for that. We scoped down the project to just do the kitchen to get it done by the holidays and agreed we'd revisit some of the other work before signing a contract. I'm really glad we did that instead of committing to doing our kitchen, bathroom, and stairs with Peg. As the work commenced, there was some disconnect between the initial conversations we had with Allan, and then with some of the contractors who came in to do the work, and it took a lot of conversation to ensure we were all on the same page. The electrician and the countertop person had to come multiple times because they weren't scheduled at the right times, the countertop that we'd had an initial quote for based on Allan's initial measurements ended up costing double, because Allan's initial measurements weren't passed on to the countertop company at the time of quote, the cabinet people didn't install the cover pieces we'd discussed as noone had told them to do that, and when the drywall people took down our old architraves and door trims, we were asked if we wanted Peg to replace them, said yes, and then this just didn't happen until we chased it.

For the first 4 weeks we got lots of communication about any changes to the schedule or the timeline and had a lot of back and forward about the above details. As we approached the end of the project, that communication faltered. I found myself having to chase up answers and updates.

The majority of the work was due to be completed the week before Christmas. I had a conversation with Michelle on the phone where she said she was trying to get someone out to do the last bits of work before the holidays, and she'd get back to me. Then I had radio silence for two weeks. Noone answered the office phone, emails, there was no out of office message saying they were on a holiday shut down. Then there was no acknowledgement or apology that they left us hanging and ignored all my voicemails and emails. The work finally got done, 4 weeks after it was supposed to, but even that wasn't smooth as between our initial walkthrough and the final finishing touches, Peg forgot what we'd agreed and had to redo the work. We didn't have a final walkthrough on their work before final payment, and by that point we were just done with them and a few small details, like poorly applied sealant and misaligned trim, we have dealt with ourselves to just call it a day and be done.

Dear Alex,
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about our services. We are so sorry that you are disappointed with our services. Kitchen renovations can be chaotic even at the best of times which is why we can only give an estimated time of completion. Per your correspondence with our office, most of your renovation was completed before the Christmas Holidays and that would have also included the repairs around your patio door (as scheduled) had the door installation not been rescheduled from Dec. 9th to Dec. 19th by your contractor.
We are also sorry to hear that you were unaware that our office would be closed for the Christmas Holidays (Dec. 23rd - Jan. 3rd) as our notes indicate that we communicated with you throughout the week of Dec. 19th -20th via phone & email, AND also during the Christmas break at which time most of the work surrounding the patio door was coordinated and completed. We also had an automatic email response noting that our office will be closed. Moreover, upon our return to work on Jan. 6th, Michelle reached out to you on Jan. 7th to finalize the completion of the remaining work but did not get a response from you until Jan. 15th in which you noted that you 'thought you had responded but found the email sitting in your drafts". Following that correspondence, all of the remaining work was swiftly coordinated & completed.
We acknowledge that your kitchen renovation took longer than anticipated & with hiccups as expected with renovations but though there was a delay, all of the work was completed as contracted. At PEG, we take pride in working with our customers to resolve any issues surrounding their renovation, and we take pride in the fact that we have never walked away without completing a job, including yours, in the 30 years that we have been in business.
Sincerely,
PEG Customer Care Team

Bathroom shower renovation

Peg did an amazing job renovation my shower. They fixed work that a previous bad contractor did. When I look at my shower now it is exactly how I dreamed it would be. Plus seeing first hand the work that they did. I am confident that I will not have any issues or leaks with this new shower. Thanks again Peg and I will be using you again for future work.

Kitchen Renovation

We have a very small Kitchen, and PEG was able to come in and find a creative way to renovate the space to maximize our footprint. We had dreaded renovation experiences in the past, but had quite the contrast with PEG; up most professionalism, great workmanship and confidence to carry the project down to the small details. They truly partnered with our vision and delivered a kitchen that we love. I would work with them again in the future; highly recommended!

Master Bedroom Reno

From the process of getting a quote for the project until completion, PEG was professional, courteous, and responsive. I will focus on a couple of points that I found most impressive:

1. they were flexible when the scope of the project changed from the initial quote.
2. Alan and Bill took their time to ensure the job was done properly and involved us as issues arose during the project. They demonstrated that they truly cared about the quality of the finished renovation.
3. They were also very well organized and respectful of our space during the project.

Installation of Ikea wardrobe systems

My great experience started with the customer service team (thanks Michelle & co) who helped me organize the installers coming out and were very kind every time I forgot to do something. The installers (shout out to Nik) were amazing! They were very professional and efficient. My wardrobes look amazing and I didn’t have to do anything but provide the materials. They installed 6 complete wardrobe systems from scratch and they all look amazing! I am grateful for their service and would recommend them to anyone who needs help with an installation of any kind.

Retail store fixturing build-in

I hired PEG Reno to customize and build in all the fixtures for my retail store. The job entailed taking down a wall, fixing flooring, framing and drywall IG a new fitting room, tons of carpentry and very precise specifications. The job was completed completely on time, on a tight schedule. Bill went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect. I am extremely happy with my decision to hire PEG and would recommend them to anyone.

Kitchen & Laundry Room Installation

Peg was able to beat another quote we received for our project, and far surpassed the other firm on customer service.
Dealing with Peg was, by far, the easiest part of our renovation project. Prompt, great and fast communication, quick turnaround time and they helped problem solve a couple of issues.
Wouldn't hesitate to use them again for future installations or design services.
