    Replaced Walkway and Driveway Banding

    First of all....I am a "picky" person. I wanted this job done right. I received quotes from 4 different contractors for our project. Blue Circle was not the cheapest, but Mark seemed like a good guy (he is) and he promised I would be pleased with the job (I am). Their attention to detail was VERY good and I could not be more pleased with the end product. On time and on budget. I'd happily recommend Blue Circle. Brian Sinclair

    Brian, it is always a great challenge for us as professional installers to satisfy someone with your eye for detail. Enjoy the change and new walkway and I look forward to working with you again in the future. Warmest regards Mark

    Rebuild stone steps, custom wrought iron railing, deck stairs and railing, tuck pointing, waterproofing house

    Mark Somani of Blue Circle Contracting is a pleasure to work with. We initially hired him to rebuild our stone front steps as well as design and install a custom wrought iron railing. We were thrilled with the results. Consequently we hired him and his trades to: design and install new steps and railing on our deck; tuck point our bricks, including chimney; and to waterproof our basement. Mark and his various crews are proud of their work, work hard, enjoy their work and at the end of the day, clean up. In fact, my neighbour was so pleased with the work we had done, employed Mark and Blue Circle Contracting.

    Answer from pro:

    Elspeth, Thank you so much for those words of praise. It was also a pleasure working with yourself and Tom and your recommendations since are greatly appreciated.

    Front and sideyard landscaping, interlock, wall rebuild.

    Mark provides the best followup I have experienced with a contractor. He rolled with our decisions, came up with reasonable proactive solutions, prevented us from making mistakes and ALWAYS responded to phone calls, emails, and texts promptly. You can well imagine the difference that makes. His landscape team were fast, clean, courteous, and professional. We'd have them back without hesitation.

    Rob, thanks for the review and it was a pleasure working with both of you. It was a great experience for us to watch the transformation of your home with the brick restoration, front landscaping and the restoration of the existing porch within a short period of time. Thanks again and enjoy the front! Mark

    Remove back deck & replace with stone patio + repair & waterproof exterior basement walls + build retaining wall for backyard fence

    The crew was very professional, hardworking, and courteous and their workmanship was superb. I am very, very happy with final product but also with the way they accomplished it. Each monring, they came early and worked hard throughout the day (even in the rain) to get the job done on time as promised and spent time at the end of the day making sure the work site was cleaned up. Again, I am very, very happy with the final product.

    Answer from pro:

    John, thanks for taking the time to write your review about the experience with Blue Circle. I look forward to finishing the stone and landscaping in the front in 2012. Enjoy your new backyard!

    interlocking brick retaining wall & patio stones

    We really love working with Mark Somani at Blue Circle Contracting. We've hired him for 4 different projects and have been very happy with the results every time. Mark cares very much about his clients and the work he provides, and he stands behind his work. His crew are a hard-working and loyal team - always prompt, clean and very personable. We've recommended Mark to a number of neighbours with absolute confidence that they, too, will be satisfied with the outcome. Two big thumbs up.

    Vickie, Thanks for the review and it is always a pleasure working with you both. Thanks for the business over the years and your numerous referrals to neighbours and friends are greatly appreciated. Mark

    Interlocking Patio Work

    We have used Blue Circle for several interlocking projects over the past 10 years. The design recommendations exceeded our expectations, the work was done promptly when started, and the site was left clean every day. Even small projects reeived great attention to the details and we are very pleased with the work Mark and the team did for us. Bob D.

    stone terraces and irregation

    bluecircle was instrumental in making our backyard an oasis. We were given a near clean-slate as a large construction project next door torn out our back and front yards. Mark Somani and his team were able to "hold our hands" and designed and executed a breathtaking spa like feel.They were on schedule and on budget,and am sorry it is all over.

    Brick Chimney Rebuild

    Mark rebuilt our tall chimney which was falling apart and did a beautiful job. He was able to obtain bricks that exactly matched the original which had long since been discontinued. We were happy with the result and I have recommended his services to several friends who needed similar work done.

    Answer from pro:

    Myron, thank you for the review. It was a pleasure working with you and your referrals are greatly appreciated. I look forward to working with you in the future.

    new front stairs, railing and relaying landing

    The tiles on my front stairs were coming apart and i tried to find a reliable contractor to repair them. I tried a few different companies and then Mark, who runs Blue Circle, came over. He wasn't offering the cheapest solution but he appeared very knowledgeable and had good ideas. He started when he said he would and finished on time. And the work is really handsome--my neighbours have all admired it. In fact when i told my sister, who lives in the Beaches, who was doing the work, it turned out by complete coincidence, that he had done her front yard work as well. We live miles away from each other. So it must have been meant. Mark has very good stone and railing people and I couldn't be happier with the job. He also took up all the tiles on my landing that had heaved and were uneven and fixed that beautifully

    Answer from pro:

    Jim & Sheila, thanks for the review. It was an absolute pleasure working with you both and thank you for being open to my design ideas for the stone and railing selection. I look forward to working with you in the future and thanks for the tickets! Mark

    Front yard landscaping

    We first started taking to Mark Somani at Blue Circle about our project two years ago. He very nicely provided quotes for us at that time but we weren't ready to move forward. He followed up with us occasionally, in the most respectful way, so when we were ready we only made one call - to Mark. He shared with us his vision for the front yard and it was the perfect strategy for a difficult to work with area. His team started when he said they would, finished on time, on budget and were friendly, helpful, polite and left our site clean each day. We have had tons of compliments on our new landscaping and have been enjoying it every day since the project was completed. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Blue Circle. A big thank you to Mark and his team!

    Answer from pro:

    Sara, thanks for the kind words and review. It was great working with you both and thanks for being open to the vision in the front. It definitely makes a statement and I have received many calls since finishing the front. Enjoy. Mark
