CCR Renovations

Thank you so much for helping me realize my dream of having an Adult space I am proud to show. The crews were polite, hardworking and professional. Stuart, was amazing to work with - he showed dedication to getting the job done on time. Matt was the reassuring voice on the other end of the phone and always took the time to explain the details to me. We wouldn't have had the pantry if it wasn't for his brilliant idea, and frankly I think it's my favourite part of the project. Sam, was a pleasure to work with. She had patience and provided guidance for all of my harebrained ideas. The crew were always polite and helpful. The team took the vision in my head and made it a reality, and it's better than expected.

This company was very easy to deal with from the beginning. Everyone was pleasant and professional. The workmanship was excellent.

It was a absolute pleasure having CCR renovate my master ensuite. They were very professional and yet friendly as well. They were respectful and trustworthy in my home. They communicated everything with me and paid such close attention to detail. All this and finished in a timely matter and within budget! The finished result is a beautiful master ensuite.

I can't wait for the next project!

Wow is all I can say about this company. You will never need to look for another contractor because this is the pinnacle. Every detail is looked after, they finish right on schedule, and the quality of work is second to none. Communication is constant from start to finish. You’ll never regret choosing CCR.

Matt and Stuart were wonderful people to work with on our bathroom renovation. Matt provided valuable expertise in the planning process and helped us keep within our budget. His oversight of the project with the scheduling of product pickup, delivery and construction made the project proceed very efficiently. His meticulous final inspection ensured our satisfaction with the new bathroom. Stuart was a pleasure to have work in our house. He was friendly, approachable and hardworking. His workmanship and attention to detail was excellent. The floors were tarped every day and cleanup was thorough.

We had a wonderful experience with CCR renovations. We hired them for a large project which saw the finishing of 1100 sq ft of our basement. The team is very professional from the Administrative staff in the office right to every employee and contractor they had work on our basement. They finished within our expected 6 week time frame. Most importantly, any issues that came up along the way were addressed and handled professionally and promptly! There was someone working on our basement every single work day of the 6 weeks. We never had to wonder what was happening. We were kept in the loop and I changed my mind a million times on minor details! With 4 kids running around while the project was being done we felt totally comfortable with everyone who came into our home.

Thank you again to everyone working on our project!

We can't say enough good things about CCR. Matt came to our home and really listened to what we were looking for, and then put together a detailed, itemized quote. He had some great suggestions to add value to our space including extra storage under the stairs. The project started ahead of schedule, and every crew member who worked on our space was pleasant, courteous, and respectful to our whole family. They always cleaned up at the end of the day and left things tidy. The crew was here daily during the week, and we always had notice if a day would be missed. Every effort was made to minimize disruption to our lives.

The work that was done is excellent, and exactly what we were promised while remaining on budget. We are thrilled with our new space, and have really been enjoying it since its completion!

We will definitely call CCR for future projects, and look forward to working with them again.

We reached out to CCR in October 2017 and hired them to renovate the basement of our 3-level back-split built in 1961, with an April 2018 start. We met with 3 other contractors to obtain quotes, however the decision to move forward with CCR was an easy one.

Matt McBride was our project manager. What stood out during our time with Matt was his knowledge, professional demeanor, patience and listening skills. Our basement is approx. 500 square feet but Matt, unlike the others we met, listened to our vision, and was able to design a space that was not only functional but used every square foot available. He didn’t allow the size of the space to hinder him. He always took the time needed to ensure we understood the process and answered any and all questions throughout. In fact he encouraged it, urging us to sending him inspiration pictures and bounce ideas off of him. He was always honest with his opinions and provided us with all the information needed to make critical decisions. This kind of back-and-forth and open communication gives a home owner piece of mind that your opinions do matter during this hectic process.

During the finishing phase, we worked closely with Stuart Maltwood. Apart from his knowledge and skill, he’s a great story teller with a sarcastic sense of humor. Like Matt, he had a lot of solid recommendations and ideas, and took the time to meet with us in-person on numerous occasions to conduct walk-throughs and discuss the finer details. When something was not done to our or his expectation or standard, he was quick to get the crew and/or sub trades back in to remedy it. Stuart’s focus on quality workmanship is highly evident.

Issues did arise, some due to the age of the home, others due to timing delays or miscommunications; however, CCR resolved all issues in a timely manner and got us back on track quickly, ensuring we were kept in the loop at all times.

CCR truly understands the concept of service excellence and that it doesn’t stop once the contract is signed or final payment made. We would refer and rehire CCR without hesitation. The experience was great and they left us with a finished basement that our family thoroughly enjoys.

Like most people when looking for a contractor, the first thing I do is check out the review sites; like HomeStars and Trusted Pros. So, I understand how important a good review can be for acquiring new business. The team from CCR Renovations have exceeded all expectations!

Work completed

- Remove an existing supporting wall

- Built in window bench seat with storage

- Built in cabinet

- Patching the hardwood where wall existed

- Painting

- New Carpets in the bedrooms

I knew the project was not a simple undertaking as it involved removing a support wall, and after watching too many renovation shows, we were terrified of being one of these horror stories!

We picked out five contractors to provide us with estimates. The quality of the estimates varied from truly professional to embarrassing and sketchy. We had one contractor who took an astonishing fifteen minutes to provide an estimate. He walked into the basement took one measurement and famously stated “yeah we can knock that wall out no problem. I know some guys.” Clearly, he did not leave us feeling very confident in his abilities, or who these “guys were.”

However; Matt, from CCR, was by far the most informed and the most professional. He took the time to go over all aspects of the proposed project. Over the hour and a half he spent with us, Matt was very reassuring but also very realistic about issues that may arise and how we could deal with them.

When we decided to go with CCR we felt pretty confident with our decision. Still, knowing it was a big renovation, we were still nervous! However, the team from CCR made us feel much more secure. The contract was 6 pages, outlining every aspect of the renovation. It also listed a payment schedule upon completion of various aspects of the renovation. It listed all the sub trades and scope of work being completed. It listed warranty information and resolutions for any issues that may arise. It covered things that we had never thought about. To say the least, it was very thorough. I had a couple of coworkers and family review the contract, and we all agreed that someone who puts this much attention into the contract is a true professional who you want working for you.

During the whole renovation the guys from CCR; Matt, Stuart and Connor, and the rest of the team were excellent and professional! As we have an almost 2 year old toddler, and another baby on the way throughout the renovation, we were concerned how much chaos there would be in the house. But Matt and the team worked with us and changed their work hours to accommodate our schedule. Every day they were at the house around 8am after we dropped our daughter off at day care, and they would begin to tidy up around 4pm, leaving the house between 430pm and 5pm or earlier. This was a huge stress relief for us as breakfast and dinner were relatively normal. The entire working area was tarped off and sealed to minimize the mess, the guys truly treated our home with respect and care. They took the time to keep things clean, and minimize the construction mess in the house.

As with any renovation there were several changes and extras that were added by us throughout the project. Despite these changes, the team from CCR were great at coming up with ideas and working out solutions with us. Overall, the team from CCR was excellent and I would highly recommend them to anyone I know who is looking for a professional, responsible, and knowledgeable renovation company.

From the initial meeting, to the planning, to the actual work and finally the completed end results, you will be impressed and satisfied.

Thank you Matt, Stuart, Conner and the entire CCR team for an amazing job.

Jon from Whitby ON

Matt, Connor & Stewart are extremely nice guys, and their crew is as well. I cannot stress enough how friendly they are. If you're looking for quality work at a reasonable price, CCR fits the bill perfectly. Our project had a few hiccups, but in the end CCR did whatever was needed in order to make things right.

We were delighted with the work that Matt, Stuart and the crew did on our main floor renovation. It was a big project and we got great suggestions, great value and very professional, high quality work from the whole team. Our place looks great, and we were so happy that we have already asked the CCR team to start work on our basement reno! Huge thanks to the team!

We hired CCR to finish our basement after seeing their sign on a lawn in our neighbourhood, and from our very first communication with Matt we were confident that we had found a company that understood our needs. Matt collaborated with us to figure out how to maximize our budget, and was very flexible and easy to work with. Stuart, as well as all of the guys who were in and out during the renovations were friendly, accommodating, and professional. They respected our home and communicated with us every step of the way, and we were very happy with the work as the job progressed. At the end of the project, we were absolutely thrilled with the finished product, and our kids were playing in the new basement within hours of it being complete. We were so happy with our new space that a couple days after the basement was finished, we actually asked Matt if they could do our main family bathroom. The guys are starting our second project together in a few days, and we couldn't be more excited for our fresh, new bathroom, and to be working with CCR again.

Review - CCR

CCR completed a major remodel of our main floor and we couldn’t be happier! Their crew did a fantastic job the whole way through the project; they were hard-working, were very responsive to my requests for information or updates and provided excellent input throughout to ensure an exceptional finish. They are honest, considerate and easy to work with.

I’m very particular about how work is finished and CCR exceeded my expectations! I highly recommend CCR for your renovation projects.

We hired CCR Renovations for a complete main floor renovation. The major component of it was removal of a load bearing wall to open up the main floor into an open concept. This renovation also included:

-maintaining the structure with addition of beams after removal of load bearing wall

-removal of our old kitchen

-install of a new updated kitchen

-widening of entryways

-raising headers on interior entryways

-removal and install of two entry doors and two sliding doors

-installation of new flooring throughout

-powder room updating with new plumbing and tiling

-potlight install

-removal of carpeting on stairs and install of new stairtreads, risers and handrail

-installation of baseboard/crown moulding

Even with the extensive amount of work that we requested, we found that we had a positive experience with this company and its crew members. Each of their employees were part of a team that were present for specific parts of the job (demo/framing; carpentry; finishes) and this way of work demonstrated their strengths and let us know that they were experienced in that part of the job.

They subcontracted electrical and plumbing aspects of the job and we appreciated this because they were upfront that they wanted the experts to complete those portions of the work. We preferred this because the tradespeople who completed the work were experts in their respective trades.

There of course were instances when perhaps things were missed but the close contact we had with the same team members and project manager allowed for us to point out any issues quickly and they were dealt with appropriately. There was no hesitation to fix the smallest of issues, even if it was a matter of centimetres. Our satisfaction was always their priority and it was evident.

In the end, as a homeowner, what I valued most was the attention to detail the company put into their final product. We were suggested improvements in visual detail that we hadn't even thought of. Their experience and knowledge was really immeasurable, especially as we had no prior experience with such a major renovation. We appreciated their clarity, expertise, accessibility and most of all, we appreciated that they cared about their work and wanted the best for us. They showed up every day to work and were respectful of our space and family. We would not hesitate to hire them again for a small or big job and would give them a reference if ever they needed it.

Thanks Stuart and Matt and Conor and your team for all the time you spent with us building our forever home.

The Zullo Family

Stuart and his crew at CCR Renovations did an amazing job on our en suite bathroom. We have never done a major renovation like this and learned quite a lot. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable and very professional. It was totally worth the wait!

Thank you CCR!

Trish Murphy

Highly recommend CCR Renovations as contractors as they completed renovated and remodeled my old dark galley kitchen into my dream kitchen.

The team at CCR Renovations work ethics, skills, knowledge and experience in all areas of the project created a seamless and smooth experience.

My kitchen underwent complete makeover. Work included removing a partial supporting wall the additions of a new large island with columns on either side, removing drywall, new ceiling, insulation on exterior wall, floors, kitchen cabinets, double sink and the addition of a partial wall to house the refrigerator.

The kitchen is now a showpiece it has opened up the entire first floor creating an open area filled with light. l love spending time in this space and creating meal to share with friends and family. The new island was designed to accommodate three stools and serves as a second location to enjoy meals.

Family and friends have commented on the renovations beauty and functionality and most importantly the quality of workmanship.

Thank you, Matt, Steward and the entire team for a fabulous job.

Overall we are very satisfy with all the work that has been done and the final product we end up with. I have quality work in my bathroom and I appreciate it. We have used several other contractors for other work in our house previously but '' CCR Renovations'' is the only company that we have no hesitation recommending to our neighbours and friends. Perhaps if I had one suggestion for improvement would be to '' inspect what you expect ''. I found that their trust in their sub-contractors is great but misunderstanding or miscommunication could lead the client shorthanded with the work contracted. Simply be aware of it. Excellent communication skill, daily with the client and very respectful of our house made us very happy and confident in their labour and the work that was to be done. Finally, we have rehire them for additional work to our house. Yes they are good!

Matt and Stuart did a great job. It was a pleasure working with both of them. Quality work, honest directions, made sure everything was as we wanted. Highly recommend CCR!

Gord and Mary

CCR Renovations completed a full gut of our main bathroom in late 2017/early 2018. This included some discovery work that, by nature, was unplanned at the start of the job. The entire team from CCR (Matt, Stuart and Connor) were professionals; courteous to our large family and understanding of additional requests we made along the way. The bathroom is everything we wanted from the very beginning, and we couldn't be happier. We wouldn't think twice about hiring CCR for future projects.

Thanks again!

We had CCR Renovations in to complete what began as a plan to finish out Basement into a simple rec room. Once they began the project we became super excited at the potential the space had. They allowed us to change our minds and add to the project to create an unbelievable dream Basement with built ins, a wet bar and custom niche and wine rack. They were incredibly patient and professional throughout the process! Special shout out to Matt for always keeping us in loop of the progression of work and spending so much time finding the perfect wine rack for me. To Connor for spending extra hours while we were away so we could come home to a tremendous amount of work completed. And to Levi for the meticulous work on the built ins and niche. Although the project took longer than originally anticipated (because we kept adding items) it was worth every second! From floor to ceiling the quality of work is flawless and if something wasn’t just perfect they changed it without hesitation.

We highly recommend choosing CCR Renovations for any project in your home and plan to use them again in the future!

We are very pleased with the work that CCR Renovations has done on our basement renovation. They were very professional, kept the work area clean, and stayed on time and budget. They were great at checking in throughout the renovation and making sure we were on the same page. They were able to provide us with multiple options within our budget and showed a solid understanding of our end goals. We would 100% recommend CCR Renovations to anyone considering a reno or home project.

I had contacted a few places to receive quotes on the renovation of our main bath and powder room. I spoke to Matt to book an appointment and he was the only one that asked what changes we were looking to make and what our budget was so that he was prepared when he came out to see the rooms. He provided us with a quote shortly after, keeping our budget in mind. He was very thorough on what the process would be and what we could expect during the renovation. The work started in July and lasted about 3 weeks. Stuart was wonderful to work with. He kept us up to date on the progress, walked us through any issues and provided options and recommendations and always left the house tidy at the end of the day. The bathrooms look beautiful. They are better than we had hoped for and we appreciate how much it has enhanced our home. We will definitely use the CCR group for our future projects and we highly recommend Matt and Stuart to anyone embarking on a renovation project. They are a hard working, reliable and honest team.

Linda & Dave Bissonnette

Fantastic job!! Made the old look beautiful & new. I would very highly recommend this company.

Matt was courteous and timely and listened to my requests like a professional. He took his time to explain the process and made sure I fully understood everything that he had gone through before doing anything. I am very appreciative of his services and would highly recommend CCR Renovations.

Only one word can describe the work of CCR Renovations. "Professionals"

As in sports they say the great ones only come once every 10 years, well CCR Renovations truly are in a class of their own.

They do what they say they will do.

They finish when they say they will finish.

They don't cut corners.

They do it right the first time.

They don't add to the bottom line.

Trustworthy, polite, reliable and just great people.

They care about what they do, and they care about your dreams.

Our dreams came true!

Not only on our first renovation but on the second as well.

It's good to know there are still good people out there willing to help!

Thank you CCR Renovations.

A big closet changed my life! my husband and I were in true need of this closet to organize our scattered clothes and other items, also I installed new doors for my sons' closets, all the work was done beautifully and in a very reasonable cost.

VERY happy with the work, an egress window that made my basement not only a legal bedroom but also a beautiful place where I can enjoy light and breeze inspite of being in a basement, I like the whole team and enjoyed their presence in my house, for sure my next project will be with them.

Unbelievable transformation!!! CCR are amazing..I really lucked out finding them! Very professional courteous and knowledgeable. Everything done first rate and to code. Budget was respected no surprises. Highly recommended!!

Matt, Stuart and the team did a great job on the basement renovation. The work was professionally done, the workers were friendly and we were very satisfied. We love our new basement.

Excellent work and very professional .. Turned our basement into our dream apartment.. Would recommend them to anyone who needs a renovation.. Matt and his awesome design and I can't forget stuart and coner for there awesome work... Can't wait for our next project...

Thank you to CCR Renovations for totally executing my vision to a T. I had very high standards and they delivered without a doubt exceptional service and workmanship. They're attention to detail was impeccable. They went over the final work with a fine tooth comb just to make sure everything was great! There was nothing Ccr wouldn't do to make sure the stain on the stairs was Perfect! (thanks Conor!)

Thank you everyone at CCR. We are sooo happy with the outcome!

Matt, Conor, Stuart, Matt and of course you cannot forget Sam behind the scenes were a complete pleasure to work with and have in our home.

We had a very positive experience with CCR. Right from the beginning every encounter was very professional and positive. At our first meeting with Matt he asked lots of questions, took notes and really tried to get a feel for what we wanted. I really felt he cared about giving us what we wanted. During the work period the workmen were very respectful and the work was done quickly with a minimum of mess.

From the moment we met Stuart we were confident that he was the man to complete our renovation. Not only was he the owner, but he was the man who would be doing the work, he even attended to provide a quote on his way home from another job site. He committed from the beginning to work within our schedule, offered useful suggestions, and referred us to reliable tile and plumbing suppliers. Not being familiar with the Schluter shower system, Stuart explained it in detail, and provided a YouTube link for us to watch.

Once the contract was drawn up he met with us to review it and to make any requested changes. He provided us with a provisional start date which was confirmed the week before commencement.

With the demolition done ahead of time by us, Stuart commenced his work, and was ably assisted by Derek. Drop sheets were put down through the house from the front door to the the upper floor bathroom work site, and removed at the end of each work day. The plumbing presented unique challenges but was overcome in a very creative manner.

The majority of cutting for framing and tiling was done outside in the driveway or garage which minimized the dirt within the house.

To our complete satisfaction the renovation was completed exactly on time allowing time for the installation of custom made shower doors.

We used Matt, Stuart and team for a full bedroom renovation and are very pleased with the results.

From quote to completion Matt's communication was prompt, honest and accurate. Received the most detailed quote I even have from a contractor which provided a clear picture of the cost and ensured no unpleasant surprises.

My son and I had completely gutted our bedroom and Matt's team framed a closet, drywalled, installed our Ikea closet system in the new closet and installed our hardwood floor. While my wife and I had a general idea of what we wanted, we found Matt very good at providing design ideas that worked for us.

Work was done on time and all their contractors were professional and did very high quality work. An absolute pleasure and would definitely hire them again for future renos.

Matt, Stuart and Conor are amazing to work with! They are very professional, committed and will go the extra mile to ensure their work is top of the line! Matt really takes the time to explain procedures, informed us of their day-to-day schedule and ensured we stayed on budget! I would highly recommend CCR Renovations to all of my family and friends!

I can't say enough good things about the guys at CCR. They kept us in the loop at every stage of the job, worked within our budget and schedule, and most importantly delivered a finished product above and beyond what we could have expected.

We would gladly recommend Stuart, Matt and Conor to anyone who asked!

I really enjoyed working with CCR Renovations (Matt was project lead). As an interior designer, I have experience with renovations and contractors. The CCR team was so professional and friendly - wonderful customer service. From beginning to end, the project was done on time and on budget!! I would not hesitate to work with CCR Renovations again.

Both Stuart and Matt are exemplary tradesmen. They are excellent communicators and their work is done to perfection. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to get any renovation work done at all for their home or office space.

We had a very positive experience working with Stuart and Matt. They understood our vision; worked within our timelines and completely the job on time and on budget. They were very professional and respectful of our home.

We would hire them again.

CCR Renovations did an AWESOME Job building our new deck on the water. It was a difficult job due to the elevations and rocks. The quality of the workmanship was superb. The attention to detail, including scribing the wood over the rocks, added features such as the BBQ area was overwhelming. I would highly recommend CCR Renovations for your next project.

We moved into our first home less than 5 years ago and it needed a substantial amount of work. Being first-time home owners, we didn't know where to start or who to trust. Stuart was our first and last call. His workmanship is top notch, he gets the job done within a reasonable time, and he keeps your budget in mind. If there's an obstacle along the way, Stuart has a solution. My wife and I can't say enough good things about him. We'll be sure to hire Stuart for our next renovation.

His work for us has included: converted a room into a garage, new basement bathroom, new mudroom, and has recently restored a kitchen beam.

We have worked with Stuart for a few years now. He is always our first thought whenever we have work to be done around our home. Stuary recently did a Kitchen reno for us and we are thrilled with the quality and professionalism of his work. If you are looking for a contractor that you can trust, Stuart is your man!!

I contracted Stuart from CCR Renovations for a full basement overhaul, which included a three-piece bathroom (including stand-up shower) and kitchen.

From the moment Stuart arrived to survey the job site, he provided thoughtful insight to my project, handy tips, and valid suggestions that helped shape my basement to the masterpiece it is today. In fact, the existing home I purchased had a lot of poor handywork; Stuart went above and beyond the protocol to ensure that the work was done right, to code, and well within my budget. Throughout the process, Stuart ensured my needs were met and did not hesitate to go the extra mile to guarantee the work was done with quality. Stuart worked tirelessly on evenings and weekends even to ensure my project was completed within the strict timelines I provided as well.

Additionally, Stuart even provided his own tips for renting the basement when the project was completed, which was very helpful. Even after the project was complete, Stuart was more than willing to provide any last minute touch-ups or fixes if required.

I would absolutely use Stuart again on any future project/renovation that I have and would certainly be a proud reference to any homeowner who was thinking of hiring a contractor for general renovations in the near future.

I've worked with Stuart on a number of home renovation projects now and I've been thrilled with his personable nature, and professional outlook when it comes to renovation projects. My projects are never straightforward (high end bath in 100 year old warehouse conversion loft, 100 year old church conversion complete gut/reno among other projects). Stuart goes above and beyond to find ways to complete projects on time and as close to budget as possible.

I always had a fear of trying to find a good contractor... like a needle in a haystack... I took a chance on stuart through this site a couple of years ago and have been working with him ever since.

Give him a call he's a great (british) guy, and an excellent contractor.
