After several phone conversations and several discussions about my belongings, being concerned…read moreabout my antiques and heavy items, they insisted that they knew how to move a one-bedroom, even though I recommended that they come and look at my belongings. They insisted that this was not an unusual move, so therefore a visit from them was not necessary. Several weeks before the actual move date, I had mentioned to them I had many many boxes packed and was concerned about the size of the truck. Once again, they reassured me that it would be fine as they had much experience. Moving day had arrived. Many neighbours noticed that boxes were being dropped. Furniture blankets were not being used. And I felt the truck was too small. Yes, the truck was indeed too small. Furniture and boxes looked like a sardine can. Some furniture had to be left behind, as well as several boxes. My outdoor planters were cracked, and this was before I reached my destination. The day of arrival of my furniture, more surprises were bound to happen. Some antiques were broken and scratched, and they showed no respect for wooden antiques. It took longer than I was quoted, and they demanded $1,600 over my quote, saying that it took longer than it should have done. These are just a few comments of my experience which I hope prevents someone else from using this company, as no reimbursement or consideration to my feelings and sadness except a $50 deduction that they felt was more than acceptable. I did complain several weeks over the phone, but to no avail. This is the worse moving company I have ever experienced. Be aware of what is said, what is quoted and what is actually being done.

We experienced the very same difficulty with M & M Roofing that Josie wrote about in her 2015 Yelp…read morereview. M & M Roofing is owned by Mike Magdalenich. Does this company not know how to do flashing around chimneys!? Back in November 2023, M & M Roofing began re-roofing my friend's house in Oak Bay but his crew did not do the flashing around the chimney, and they left a deficit in the roof that causes a leak into my friend's bedroom. She has a tub in her bedroom collecting rain water. Is his roofing crew not qualified to do the proper flashing around chimneys? Every 2 or 3 months since the initial work in November 2023, we would phone Mike Magdalenich to enquire when he'd come by to do the flashing, he'd always says he is really busy, but will get around to it. Yeah, right! We are still waiting. Two winters of rain and snow have come and gone since the start of the roofing began. Another winter is coming up. Now Mike Magdalenich doesn't even respond to our calls. M & M Roofing's ready excuse is always that the company is "really busy, but will get around to it". The result is M &. M Roofing can't be depended upon. It is clearly unreliable and non-responsive. I am sure it is a nice problem for M & M Roofing to have in that they are always "really busy," but what homeowner wants to wait months, even years, for this company to do the roofing on a homeowner's home!? Beware of this company as it has a pattern of not being able to commit to a set start date or completion schedule! (Because they are so busy.) Even worse, M & M Roofing wants to be immediately paid in full once the roofing work is done. Payment in full immediately. If M & M Roofing says they will be back to complete the job, don't believe them! M & M Roofing has no incentive to return if they have already been paid in full. Was a very disappointing experience with M & M Roofing.

Negative-- After the job was finished they tried to say that the job was more than they estimated on their quote and asked for more money--don't fall for this and just say "NO". Oldest scam in the book and taking advantage of customers. (they try and get you to pay cash after the job is completed) another NO ! What Alex does not realize that a lot of people that experience these negatives will not say anything but will not call you back for a future job. You need to revamp your business practises.

My landlords had there roof done by them, and while they have potential to be a great company, but…read morethey are not there yet. The estimater/superviser/manager is a really hard working and honest fellow, and is really one of the better construction contractors that I have met. He gave a clear and concise description of the work they would do, and the price agreed to was what was paid. He earns the company a full five stars. Unfortunately the company has other people in it. When the work started, the superviser was busy with another job and so we got two guys who seemed to be either labourers or at most apprentices. They didn't seem to have any clue as to what they should be doing and no one was there to supervise them. I can forgive inexperience and rookie mistakes, but one of these guys was also rude and ill-mannered. At the end of each day's work, I would find chicken bones, fast food wrappers, and tin cans spread around the yard. Even when there was a dumpster for them to use, the one guy always left his garbage on the sidewalk or in the bushes. The worst offence was when he walked to the opposite side of the yard from the house he was working on, and brought a garden gnome back to the worksite - I still don't know why - but that evening it had been busted by them. IMHO this was a deliberate act by someone who didn't want to be doing his job. They also crushed the eavetroughs and seem to have drilled a couple of small holes in the side of the house - why? Finally two weeks into a three day job their superviser shows up and only then do they start working hard. (It seemed like that was the first day the superviser realized they had started on the job) The second big disappointment was when the owner of the company came out to do his final inspection. He spent the entire time explaining that these are his best workers (I would hate to see his worst workers!) and saying what a great company he has. Any concerns the homeowners had were brushed aside and ignored. I think the owner should leave customer relations to his manager in future... In the end, I give the company five stars because the manager was fantastic when he was around and the final result looks good to my untrained eye. They lose two stars for giving the job to seeming rookie apprentices with no supervision and who appear to have intentionally damaged the job site and generally made a mess with their lunch-time littering. They lose another star for the owner being completely out-of-touch with what is happening in his company and ignoring the customer. They have potential, but they really need to clean up their customer relations!
