My family and I used Elevate Home Retail Construction Inc. for our washroom reno. Basically how everything went down was we told them the budget and time line, they said ok and started ;looking around the washroom area. They said they have an inhouse designer to keep the costs down and that the design and rendering of the project would be free if we were to sign up with them within the next 7 days.
My husband and I both asked what’s that saving us? They said without blinking 5-7k, (our washroom is the master and slightly bigger then most). My husband and I looked a bit skeptical, the guys looked at us and said we completely understand what you are thinking but in reality every reno project needs a drawing, engineering, plumbing, electrical. A washroom and kitchen is where everyone puts their money, and we do things differently than most companies. We don’t use any unlicensed trades, every trade has to prove to us they have insurance and WSIB and we have an program called Buildertrend. This app keeps everything going smoothly, everything is transparent meaning you the home owner can see when things are scheduled, you are kept up to date with everything in real time.
So in short Elevate is not run of the mill 2 guys and a truck company. We sign up with them because not only was their presentation great, they proved that every trade they use was covered with insurance and WSIB and eventing one was licenced. Buildertrend was really cool too, everything was displayed that we needed to know, nothing was hidden.
