Home Improvement People Inc. reviews (573)

As a real estate investor with varying degrees of success and experience with other contractors on smaller renovation projects, I knew the importance of finding a professional, well-organized contractor who was going to be able to handle the scale of our project when it came time to do a full-scale renovation of our own personal residence. The Home Improvement People and their team were easy to work with, were super courteous and their project manager Larry Maher always showed extreme patience with all of our questions.

To Home Improvement People. We had HIP perform both a complete bathroom and kitchen renovation for us within the last year. We were very pleased with both reno's. The entire package of design help, professional trades personnel, quality of work and on-time delivery of the project was excellent and we would have no hesitation in using them again.

I called these guys mostly because of reviews on this site and I am pleased with results. I have a small basement in a fairly new house but I wanted to make it look really nice so we can get the most use out if it and now nobody wants to go upstairs anymore. My daughter and son fight over who gets to hang out there with their friends. Thanks to the crew who was friendly and professional.

I had been hearing about the Home Improvement People for years and had wanted to renovate my kitchen for the longest time. I finally decided to contact them and met with Ben and hired on spot. Through the whole process I felt comfortable with drywallers, tilers, painter etc. Overall my kitchen is beautiful, family and friends have been commenting on what a great job has been done. I will most definitely recommend the Home Improvement People to anyone looking to do renovations.

From the first time meeting with Dan, I knew my husband and I made a great decision on hiring The Home Improvement People. The project manager was great and always available with any questions we had and also updating us on job progress until complete. We are extremely pleased with crew workmanship and our basement looks lovely. Thanks

Dear Ben, As you know we were so delighted with our basement that hiring your company for our main floor renovation was not a question. Having said that you and your company have literally blown us away! Once again the project management was outstanding; Larry managed all the trades and guided us throughout the whole renovation. The cabinetry exceeded our expectations, thank you Ben for taking such great care of our home. Our next project will be our upstairs bathroom …guess who we will be calling!

Purchased a voucher from a groupbuying website for 2 hours of handyman services from the Home Improvement People. Wanted to remove the side panel of a wooden fence and to convert the panel removed into a door to allow access to the side of my house in the backyard. The handyman who showed up was very pleasant, but could have done a better job. Called Dan from the Home Improvement People and told him of my experience, he explained that they specialize in interior renovations such as kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. Dan told me that they do not do the type of work that I wanted, but since I purchased a voucher for 2 hours of Handyman services, they sent someone. Dan wanted me to be satisfied, so he rectified the situation, I am very impressed with Dan and the Home Improvement People, customer satisfaction is of paramount importance to them.

Ben, firstly I want to offer my apologies for taking so long to send this letter! Secondly I can tell you that 3 years later we are still completely thrilled with our renovation. From the 2.5 bathrooms that still look brand new, to the finished basement that is now cozy, warm and comfortable, to the renovated kitchen that still wows our friends and neighbours when they walk into it, they all demonstrate the fine workmanship that went into each job and the great bunch of contractors that you have such a great relationship with. Ron the electrician took the time to make sure that every plug, light switch and fixture was in just the right spot as we discussed and the pots lights make everything look right. The tile and carpeting guys did a fantastic job on the floors, and our basement has never been warmer thanks to the spray foam insulation that thankfully we decided to proceed with after discussing with you. Your cabinetry guys worked at length with us to design a fantastic new kitchen that incorporated everything that we have wanted for the last 20 years. Of course none of this would have been possible without the expertise of your general contractor Larry who was always such a pleasure to deal with and made sure that every detail had been completed to our satisfaction. We are glad that we finally had these renovations complete, and even to have had such a great firm such as yours to complete the job. D.McGarigle

We needed to have our ensuite shower redone as it was leaking. We contacted several companies and The Home Improvement People were the only ones to answer our e-mails. Kris came assessed the situation, gave ideas and a very reasonable estimate. We are so pleased with the work Kris did. We really love the new shower. Would highly recommend The Home Improvement People and if you get Kris, lucky you, he's great. Thanks Verla and Ernie Talnariu

The renovations that I had done by Larry and team were small in size but significant to me. They worked on my bathroom and kitchen, and did a really beautiful job. Larry and his team were easy to work with and always got back to me quickly when I had questions. I am very happy with the finished product. Thanks, Cathy.
