These guys are fantastic. Alex and his team of subs... punctual, friendly, patient.... we not only rewired a ~75-year-old home but were moving furniture in around them, unpacking where possible, and changing the plan/positioning for lights and outlets as we determined what furniture fit where. They worked through the weekend to meet an agreed upon deadline for the work (we had painters scheduled for the following day). We had gotten a couple of other quotes and they were very competitive as well.

We contacted Chris and a couple of other companies to get quotes for a major landscaping project in our home. We live in Toronto's west end on a long, deep, protected ravine lot, which had become overgrown and virtually unusable due to neglect. We had a vision to retain its beauty while making it more functional for a young family; a flagstone terrace, and below that, a leveled grassy area before the yard descended into the ravine. Chris' quote was not the cheapest, but his ongoing communication around the project and I sensed from his experience and his willingness to listen to our vision that he understood we weren't looking for a cookie-cutter solution. His team was on time and on site for three weeks in November 2012 to complete the work, including some days where the weather was inclement enough that I never expected them to be there. Small enhancements to the project were added as we went, and they happily accommodated, including a couple of small tasks they did pro bono (running electrical wire and a downspout drainage system beneath the terrace) without any issue. We're thrilled with the result and are looking forward to making full use of the yard when spring comes.

No frills, no fancy website, just solid responsive work and great customer service. I called Nick in September to pull out some old gas lines (for laundry) and T off an existing line to hook up a gas BBQ on the back deck. Despite the job taking twice as long as expected (and quoted) because of challenges drilling through the foundation, Nick stayed true to his original quote and completed the job perfectly. Fast forward two months and we learn from Enbridge that we have a gas leak. Assuming it was somehow related to Nick's work earlier in the fall, I called him first thing on a Monday morning and he rearranged his schedule to get to my house by midday. He figured out the source of the leak (it was unrelated to his prior work), charged me the bare minimum, and had us back up and running (rad heat, hot water) by mid-afternoon. The only guy I'll call and the only guy I'll recommend.

John, Thank you for such Positive words and a great review.

340+ positive reviews should be more than enough to sway you, but I'll add our story. We had five days between possession and move date to get our entire home painted top to bottom, and went with Finer Edge on a relative's recommendation. The quality of their work is exceptional. The personality of the crew was sunny, positive, and customer-focused. We moved in while they worked. We had AC installed while they worked. We were unpacking from the move to set up our infant's room as quickly as possible. They were supportive and happy to accommodate these inconveniences, and cleaned up every evening as if it were their own home. On the last morning when they returned for final touch-ups, Vince walked through the house to ensure their work was perfect. And it was. You can probably shop around and find a cheaper quote, but I doubt you'll find the quality standard and level of excellence that you'll get with Finer Edge.
