10/10

Needed to get my sprinkler system winterized, came to homestars and found this company. I called for information & advice and got everything I needed to make an informed decision. I needed to book an appointment as soon as possible and they were more than accommodating. Soon after, Joel from Custom Lawn Sprinkler came by the house, was very courteous & professional, did a great job explaining my system to me (I just bought the house recently and have never had a sprinkler system) and winterized the system while explaining the process throughout. Joel went above and beyond, answered all of my questions and was very thorough inside and outside to ensure my sprinklers were ready for the winter season, great job. I will use them again and would recommend this company.

I was referred to Ed and his company, Decorators Choice, by a friend. I just moved into a new home and wanted to complete various projects right away to 'personalize' my new investment. First step was to hire the right painters. Ed came in to quote me on the job and right away, I knew he was my guy. I wanted the main floor and second floor completely redone, old wall paper removed, new coats of paint, restoring the fireplace mantle, etc. He walked the house with me and provided me with a fair estimate of what needed to be done and the associated costs. There was a lot of prep involved, and I wanted to bring the beautiful millwork (wainscoting and trim) to life, & freshen the look and feel of my new home. Ed, Iris and his project team, Jason & Matt, were the ultimate professionals in every way. The quality of their work was higher than I could ever expect, every little detail was covered. They were also very patient with me as I explored different colour and finish options, I think I changed my mind over a dozen times, and Ed was so accommodating, he rolled a few coats of paint in 1 room first so that I could better appreciate what the paint would look like on the actual walls vs a paint chip fan book. Well, the work is now completed, and I could not be more happy and satisfied with the job that Ed and his team did for me. Their professionalism is unmatched, as is their attention to detail. Everything looks brand new, all of the old flaws gone. I would highly recommend Decorators Choice to anyone, I know I will use them exclusively for all my future decorating needs. They completed the work on time, honoured the original quote and kept my house very clean and liveable as they did their work. If you want value for your money, go with Ed and his company, Decorators Choice - unbelievable work, and great people. They truly went above and beyond, if I could rate them higher than a 10, I would...

What could this company do to improve their services?
I struggle with this question, they were so good, I wouldn't change a thing.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
paint looks different at a paint store than on the walls - lighting, furniture and time of day really affects how the colour ends up looking on the surfaces, be patient and hire someone who will work through these nuances with you, like Ed at Decorators Choice, he taught me a lot
