Bought a brand new build from this builder. The problems started almost immediately as my basement floor had to be jack-hammered up when the house began to stink because they had hooked sewer lines up to weeping tile and vice versa. The house's sewage was all being sent into the weeping tile and sump-pumped out onto the front lawn. What else... a bathtub design that led to shower water draining out onto bathroom floor...had to re-do the set up out of pocket for $8,000+. Another tile/glass shower stall where the threshhold angled out to the bathroom floor so all the water that hit the glass inside drained out to the bathroom floor...another redo $6000+. Burst water pipe fitting in garage ceiling led to drywall damage and leak. Faulty eavestrough and leaks at one side of house. All kitchen cabinets have to be replaced after just 5 years as the cabinet maker used cheap paint and the mdf has dissolved... $20K+. Builder cheaped out on windows....5 or 6 still don't properly close. Builder cheaped out on interlock driveway contractor and pathways....have to re-do at cost of $14,000 as the ground wasn't compacted properly. The deck was so badly built, it's falling apart after just 5 years... the concrete footings crumble to the touch. According to contractors, it was never built to code in the first place. The builder claimed he didn't know but his contractors buried so much bricks and construction waste and then just sodded over that in the yard. They took many, many short-cuts and used some very bad contractors...we are paying a helluva lot of money to repair an essential brand new house. I would highly caution anyone buying a home that was constructed by this novice contractor.

I have a two year old house with new Miele cooktop, oven, dishwasher and microwave. I have just repaired our little used gas cooktop to the tune of $350 or so. The faceplate of the Microwave is falling off and I'm quoted around $1000 parts and labour on it....again, less than 2 years old and by most household standards, little used. I complained heavily about the fact that their appliances are garbage and they offered a significant reduction to $500...however, I told them where they could put their $500. I am not interested to throw good money after bad. Buying Miele appliances...a huge regret....the quality is very shoddy.

I stumbled on Sharrison via a search on Homestars and was somewhat reassured by the high star ratings. I've had so many bad experiences with contractors that I've become paranoid with any hire, but now that my basement has been completely renovated and updated by Kyle and his crew, I couldn't be happier. They knew what they were doing! The basement had always been musty and Kyle pointed out the improper insulation and lack of vapour barrier. Now it is fresh smelling and dry. They did new flooring, new carpeting, some plumbing work, insulation, drywall and painting, baseboards and casings, new doors and hardware, some light fixtures, a sauna beautification. It looks amazing, they left the place very clean and touched up and addressed anything that I wasn't 100% satisfied with, without questioning. I had them work in a very tight deadline because I am selling my home and they managed to finish as promised give or take a few days. All of Kyle's tradesmen worked quietly, diligently and respectful of the family being upstairs. I would have no hesitation to recommend Sharrison for painting and renovation work!

I suspected I had squirrels in my attic and called Troy to ask him to come out and have a look. He came very promptly, on time, and was very knowledgeable and courteous and the service was excellent.

3 years after City Roofing botched my roof so badly (see my review of City Roofing - Roof Butchers), I am still in court trying to get them pay up what the Court ordered them to pay me in damages. It came to light in court today that Mr. W has started another company called City Renovations and Roofing, presumably so that he could close down City Roofing and avoid having to pay the judgement. I would just like others to be aware of this wolf in sheep's clothing. If you have a comnpany trying to sell you roofing or home renovations and any of the principals are named either Perry Weinstein or Sean Silver, be warned.

We rented a hot tub for a pool party we had recently. Stewart and his people were great to deal with. Very professional and courteous delivery and return pick-up. A really fun thing to do for a party! It was a hit. I would strongly recommend it.
