CCR Renovations

If you read nothing else: go with CCR they are a great company! We were introduced through our designers, and have been impressed with their level of professionalism and customer care.

We did our reno in the second half of 2021, and Stuart, Matt and team did a terrific job communicating pricing clearly upfront. We received a very detailed quote, with allowances for everything. Once the job started we stayed on track, and only had an add-on charge for a concrete subfloor that needed replacing (there was no way CCR could have foreseen this was needed before the job started).

CCR consistently kept us updated throughout the project, here and there of course small things come up - but invariably CCR dealt with any issue. After the job was completed we discovered a few minor things that needed someone to come back (flooring install correction in the basement), and CCR swiftly returned within days to fix the issue.

Honestly it's a great company, well run by people that care. We have recommended to a few friends who have also hired CCR, and are very pleased as well.

You can't go wrong with this company!

CCR Renovation did an amazing job on my upstairs bathrooms, laundry room and closet renovation. The attention to detail was exactly what I was looking for. Conor, Greg, Tara and the rest of the CCR team were approachable with any concerns or changes I made to the renovation. They were able to give advice when needed regarding design or the behind the scene work. Thank you for the amazing renovation.

CCR Renovation was an absolute pleasure to deal with from day 1. The transparency of the project and walk through of budget was very helpful and kept us in the loop every step of the way. Their team was always on time, was respectful of our family Iiving in the home during the renovation and kept the job site clean. Communication was of high calibre in the event any adjustments needed to be made and they were able to made accommodations for additions to the scope of the job. The sub contracts they employ are also quite good. Overall a 10/10 experience.

We decided to make some kitchen updates which began with the removal of a structural wall. After a few meetings, we decided to move forward with CCR Renovations to tackle this project, and we're very happy with this decision! Matt came to see us and to discuss our options. Matt helped us navigate the necessary steps required to make this possible - engineering drawings, town permit, and inspection. Matt also coordinated the trades necessary to assist with plumbing, H-VAC and electrical. Once the job started, Greg was our on-site contact and was fantastic. Nothing really can prepare you for the disruption a large scale renovation has on your family and day-to-day life, but Greg made it as painless as possible. He explained each step, kept the job moving and worked through many unexpected roadblocks we encountered once we actually opened the wall up. Greg also lead by example with his work ethic, positivity and leadership, keeping the job on time and on budget, right up until our inspection passed.

Moving a structural wall is very stressful and it's important to do it properly for many reasons. I can say with confidence that CCR is the only company I would ever call for any future structural projects.

Earlier this year we worked with CCR to complete a renovation on our main floor and bathroom. After walking them through our thoughts on the work we wanted done, we were immediately impressed by the design they presented, which went above and beyond our expectations.

The team was presented with a number of challenges through COVID, which they responded to with thoughtfulness and professionalism.

We have lived in the new space for several months now and continue to be blown away by the quality of work done by this team. They executed that initial design, that we were so impressed by, beautifully. We would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a top notch renovator to remodel their home.

Work included:

Gutting and remodelling the bathroom and kitchen, vaulting the ceiling in the kitchen to match the living room, removing asbestos in the stucco ceiling, replacing the floors, rebuilding the staircase, installing exhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom, insulating the walls and ceiling, painting and finishing.

The people at CCR Renovations from the first point of contact through to post project completion were top notch! We are extremely happy with the finished product but more importantly the design and execution of the washrooms. The communication between Matt (the visionary, designer etc), Sam (the person who keeps everything and everyone on track), Brandon and other trades (for their outstanding workmanship) and Stuart (owner - making sure the customer is happy with the final product) was outstanding. I would recommend CCR Renovations to anyone planning a kitchen, bathroom or basement renovation.

We entrusted CCR renovations with our home renovation. Our renovation included our entire mainfloor, powder room, guest bath and ensuite. From the very beginning, the quote was well laid out and clear. Any questions we had regarding the quote were answered quickly and thoroughly. CCR helped us through the process of selecting finishes for each room which was very helpful, especially given the large scope of our project.

Greg, the lead hand was excellent with educating us throughout the process and showing us what work was being done each day. He was very professional and took the time to thoroughly describe everything to us and always assured us that we could make changes along the way.

The crew members were all kind and courteous and I felt very comfortable having them in our home to complete the work as they worked their magic!

The spaces were always swept clean at the end of the day.

CCR has excellent relationships with their sub trades which we found very important as this helped to ensure smooth transitions between work. It also helped to keep our project constantly moving forward despite being in a global pandemic. We truly valued this because we felt that they were always working without lulls. I was also working from home during parts of the renovation and they were courteous and respectful. They truly are a company who cares and take pride in the beauty of their jobs.

Thank you CCR for a spectacular job! Our space feels brand new and we would use the company again in a heart beat!

CCR Renovations Met and Exceeded Our Expectations.

My husband and I renovated our Port Perry bungalow in June of 2020 and while it may seem like this review is long overdue, we wanted to see how satisfied we remained at the end result of our renovation and with the after care that we received after our last invoice was paid before submitting a review. I can honestly say that we remain fully satisfied with the calibre of professionalism and the quality of workmanship that the team at CCR Renovations and the trades that they use provide.

The scope of our renovation was to remove an interior non load bearing wall between the kitchen and dining room to create an open floor plan. A full kitchen remodel, gutting an existing finished basement to create a basement master suite with a four piece bathroom, exercise room, living room and storage area. Gutting and revamping the ensuite of the main-floor master bedroom, and updating the main-floor bathroom. We also changed the layout of the laundry room, removed our popcorn ceilings, added new pot lights and light fixtures throughout, replaced all existing flooring and updated our staircase and railings. Additionally we chose to upgrade all of our windows and our front door as the renovation progressed. CCR handled everything including the window and door install.

Never having undertaken a renovations of this scope before, we researched, read reviews, asked for referrals and finally shortlisted and interviewed five companies. After meeting with each company and receiving their quotes, we went with a gut decision and chose the company that we felt not only provided the best value given the size of the project we were about to undertake but also the one that felt like the right fit for us.

We dealt throughout the project mainly with Matt, Sam, Stuart, Connor and Derek, meeting with the trades only when decisions were required. Throughout the renovation we loved the fact that we were kept informed, even to the point that our kitchen layout was mapped out on the floor prior to cementing our final layout as was our basement bedroom prior to the walls being studded. This helped us to see the flow and layout and led to a couple of minor modifications that gave us the end result we wanted. Our phone calls and emails were always answered promptly and after our renovation was complete have remained attentive the minor touch ups that we have needed as our renovation settled. We have recommended CCR renovations to people who have mentioned renovation projects and would not hesitate to use them for any future renovations that we undertake.

We worked with CCR renovations from March – October of 2020 on a main floor remodel (kitchen, living, dining, 1 bedroom) of our bungalow in Brooklin, Ontario. Undertaking a remodel at the outset of a pandemic added stress and complexity to an already large project. The trust we established through that highly uncertain time went a long way toward managing the stress of having demo’d our home ~1 week before the start of locking down. Matt, Greg and Stu were fantastic through our renovation. Matt worked with us to define a detailed budget and high-level project approach and was key to solving problems along the way. He was forthright with the budget and was willing to work as a partner with us as we stepped through issues with the town and adjustments to manage our budget. Greg ran the actual project and we are ever so thankful that he was the lead day to day on the work. He is talented, professional and cared for our home like it was his own. Stu, as the founder and elder statesman of CCR was a stabilizing presence, complimenting Matt and Greg’s respective skills. Sub-trades were clean and respectful and the cabinet maker, Wheeler Studios did extraordinary work. While I have zero desire to ever renovate in a pandemic again, if we ever do something like this again, we’ll call CCR.

We had a major renovation on our house - structural walls removed, beams put in, total kitchen overhaul, re-do stairs, full railing system, and remove all popcorn ceilings.

I reached out to a few companies when starting to plan our renovation and ended up choosing CCR for a few reasons; their online testimonies on sites such as this, how Matthew handled answering our initial questions, and the fact that they had been involved with TV shows. I'm so glad I ended up choosing them, as our renovation is more than I could have hoped for.

Greg was the lead person on the day-to-day job and was so pleasant to work with; friendly, well-spoken, very knowledgeable and was quick to get back to me whenever I had a question. He also helped with some really important decisions like the size of the island, placement of the skylight, and how far to extend our kitchen. He was always in a good mood which made everything seem to go smoothly.

We ended up changing our kitchen supplier after the initial consult, which pushed back our date, but CCR was able to work around it so that we wouldn't be extending the time we would have to go without a kitchen.

One of the things that we really appreciated was how clean the place was after every workday. They swept and moved tools etc. so that the space didn't get too chaotic, which we really appreciated.

They were able to work with our budget and give many options so that we could have the style we were looking for at the price that would be appropriate.

Communication was excellent - texting and emailing always proved to have quick responses and Sam, Matthew and Greg were awesome at getting back to me.

If you're looking for a fair price, excellent quality, friendly workers, and a good timeline, I'd recommend CCR for any project. They have the know-how, sub-trades, and business end of things down!
