Concrete Driveway

I called red seal for a quote on a concrete driveway with a built in heater. Unfortunately the heating was out of my budget, but Yuri was very helpful in explaining all of the features and options. I opted for a standard concrete driveway.

The guys showed up on time and kept the site clean and tidy. The job was done in 3 days and I am super happy with the finish and quality. The driveway is absolutely beautiful.

The team was a pleasure to deal with. Good job!

Exceeded expectations

We had the best experience working with Sefer and his team.

We had 3 companies consider our job,
interior painting and patching of walls, closets, doors, baseboards and ceilings. All 3 quotes were very similar in price.
Sefer confirmed his appointment, arrived on time and understood our expectations. This painting would sandwiched between other trades working in the house.

Sefer and his team arrived at the agreed upon time, worked quietly and efficiently and at the end of the work day the site was left pristine.

Our project was completed ahead of schedule, on budget and all exceeded all expectations.

Basement water leak

Had Dr.Rooter do a repair in 2018, looked at cracks and said this would fix it, 20 year guarantee!
They did a great job, but 6 months later was leaking again(mainly winter leaking). Took 3 more months and bad reviews before Oleg (owner) came back and did additional repair, still leaking after a few months again.
Leaking again, another 6 months or so.
Oleg came again, took quick look inside and out, tried to say it was only a guess as to where leak was, have original invoice not stating any "guess", just 20 year guarantee. He said he would seal from inside for$800 more. Don't trust any promises unless very detailed in writing! Getting other company to repair this time, with detailed
guarantee in writing.

Outstanding customer service

The service and integrity of this company were indisputable. A customer service rep was dispatched to my house within two hours of my kitchen flooding. A huge shoutout to Jesse, the service rep, who did an outstanding job of identifying and correcting the problem with my main water pipes. He was professional, courteous and had an obvious high level of expertise and experience. The entire experience was positive - a high level of transparency around estimate for work done, explaining and showing by camera where the drain blockage was located. Outstanding service that I believe you can really trust. Extremely satisfied.

Drainage Pipe Cover Replacement

So my drainage sewer pipe cover cracked in half. The best part its on my driveway. The best part is that cover was super glued. So I called the pros. Yuri answered the phone and suggested that I should be able to complete this on my own (I like his honesty). However when I mentioned that situation, he and his colleague came in right away and replaced it in 15 minutes. If I have any plumbing issues, I will call them for the future.

Garage Floor

I had few contractors with good ratings at Homestar for estimate. Some wont even let you ask questions and just wanted to close the deal. Some had unreasonable prices way beyond my budget.
Dr Rooter is commendable for its attention to detail catering to customers' needs and queries. From the estimate, to customer's concern, everything was addressed on point. The crew came on time and did an excellent quality job.
Dmitri, Andre, Sasha and Yuri were very professional from start to finish. I would highly recommend this company for their expertise.
