We had our entire electrical system rewired. It took weeks of work. My one suggestion is that Finan…read moreshould tell the home owner how involved the process will be. If I had known the state that the house would be in for weeks on end then I would have found a temporary residence and left them to it. The rewiring requires decisions to be made every day, and sometimes items to be purchased, so you have to be available during the day to take their call. The cost was very high, but we were charged in accordance with the estimate. The only extras were items that we chose to add on as the work was being done. Customers should carefully weigh the options that are presented at the initial assessment. There are items that I wished that we would have done and during a whole-house rewiring is the time to do it.

This was my second time dealing with Finan and so far, I am highly impressed. My great experience…read morewith them began with the phone call to their office. The phone was picked up and I was greeted by a friendly female voice that said "It's a wonderful day at Finan Home Services. How can I make you smile today?" with a real emphasis on "you". It made me smile. I told the lady my problem - a broken light switch - and she informed me that she'd send her guys out to look at it. They price PER JOB and not by the hour, which is really nice. The lady told me the guys would arrive (giving me their names, which I forget at the moment - one was Jeff) between 8-8:30 this morning. She said normally they have a 2 hour window, but this is the very first appointment. Excellent. Today the guys arrived at my house earlier than expected - arriving at 7:50am. They had the job done (both light switches - as it was a dual switch - replaced) within 10 minutes. The gentlemen greeting me with a bright smile, where highly cheerful, and very clean. The one who installed the lights had paper covers on his boots to protect my floor from the outside dirt, which was really nice. Jeff, the other gentleman who handled the financial transaction at this appointment, did not have the covers so he remained on the enclosed porch while we handled payment for the job. He thanked me and they wished me a great day, and they were gone. We also got a $25 discount since we had used them before, which was really nice. Before they left, he offered a book (which I got the time before) that explained the various services they do - contracting, plumbing, electrical, heating, etc. They came recommended to us by Roy Inch, who we use for our furnace, and I've not been disappointed. I highly recommend these people. :)

We needed a new gas fireplace last Fall. On checking various companies, found some sales people did…read morenot know product very well or could give costs. (Have to check and get back to you. They didn't!). These are 'known' businesses. Following my brother in laws' recommendation, contacted Home Fireplace. He bought a unit a few years back, trouble free. Spoke to John, gave a price. He and his helper came on time, replaced our fireplace, cleaned up outside and we paid him exactly as per verbal quote. Nice asset to our home, works fine and cost a few hundred less than similar models elsewhere. Thank John. Give him a call.

I asked a bunch of questions about other issues we were having and he was happy to answer, even suggested simpler/cheaper solutions to what I was suggesting. Will definitely be using them again in the future.

I have never really noticed that they are here. I am really glad I noticed them…read more The staff are really nice and knowledgeable. They always have the little bits and pieces I need. This business appears to have everything you would need. Do not overlook them when you need a piece of something or advice. From small bits to toilettes, showers, kitchen counters or simply need a bit of advice. I highly recommend them.
