GL Installations Inc. - Home Renos

Gabriel finished laying my engineered hardwood floors a few days ago.

My husband and I are very impressed by the quality of his work.

We bought the flooring from Jordans and decided to find our own installer.

I researched Gabriel s company on line and found that the reviews were very positive.

When I gave Jordans the name of the installer I was using, they said they use his company and could recommend him highly.

I had 4 estimates done in all ,by top companies and Gabriels was very competetive.

I can't imagine anyone else doing a better job.

Gabriel and his team did an amazing job on our parents' place! GL Installations offered us professional, personalized service and went over and above to make sure we were satisfied with the end product!

GL Instalations has provided me with excellent service on several jobs over the past 6 years. I trust Gabriel and would recommend him.

Gabriel impressed me from the start. He arrived punctually and explained what the job would entail in a detailed manner. He was thoughtful, conscientious and honest about what would work, and what would not, when we had decisions to make about how the floor would be laid. The estimate was prompt and his predictions of when he would start and complete the work were accurate.

The most important part is that his work turned out beautifully. I love my cork floor! And the baseboards look wonderful too.

I would not hesitate to recommend Gabriel for your flooring needs.

Gabriel and his crew did an outstanding job installing vinyl flooring and a full paint job in Dad's apartment. His commitment to the job was first-class, communication was easy , he explained everything that he did or was about to do, and offered alternatives that I had not even thought about. All in all, we're very happy with GL, and would certainly not hesitate in calling them again for further work!

Gabriel from GL Installation installed our hardwood and vinyl flooring in our custom built house. As you can see they did an amazing job and came in on budget and on time.

About one year we had some house settling which required a repair for a squeaky hardwood plank. Once I called Gabriel, he was over at our home within days and completed the repair quite efficiently. I would highly recommend their service especially if you want your floors to look out of a Home and Garden magazine. Thanks Gabriel.

Gabriel is very friendly and provides detailed explanations on the work that needs to be completed. He is also prompt and responsive with correspondence. I only needed the carpet removed and laminate installed in 1 room of my apartment, which is a very small job, but he was able to fit me into his schedule quite quickly. The laminate installed looks great and everything was cleaned up after the job. I would definitely recommend Gabriel to anyone looking for a flooring contractor.

Gabriel and his team installed our hardwood 4 years ago. Friendly team and hard workers. Still looks great! Thanks so much!

Owner of GL Installations Inc., Gabriel, installed new 3/4" subfloor and luxury vinyl plank in our home. With new subfloor the entire job was completed with only one transition strip where the existing kitchen floor met the new vinyl plank. He is knowledgeable and thorough on proper installation and does not consider the job complete until he has satisfied himself and that the owner is completely pleased with the install. Gabriel was a pleasure to deal with. He has fabulous work ethic and I highly recommend him and will certainly have him back to do other work for me. Thank you Gabriel for doing a fantastic job at our home!!!!!

We hired GL Installations to install laminate flooring in our basement. We were impressed with the attention to detail, friendly, timely service and fair pricing. We would recommend their service!

GL was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend them-hands down. Gabriel and his partner followed through on absolutely everything, with no surprise charges. There was a lot of attention to detail, excellent problem solving skills, they left everything spotless and the communication throughout the project was THE BEST. They were so great to work with on my flooring project that I called Gabriel and his partner back to do the baseboards on my upper level. I have felt really taken care of by these guys, start to finish. 10/10.

Gab and his team did a great job in our home. He is easy to deal with and very straightforward. All my friends who saw our new floor were very much impressed.

They did a great job with our hardwood floors. Very timeline and professional. Very clean after also. I would recommend them to others.

An outstanding job by GL Installations on a very tight schedule. I will utilize GL for all my real estate clients in the future.

Gabriel and his team was super helpful and knowledgeable. My floor looks stunning. I highly recommend him to anyone!

I am so incredibly pleased with my floors! I chose a Brushed Acacia finish which has a lot of tone contrast and grain variability. It also requires specific staggering to avoid patterns and to create a sense of flow. All of these points were taken into account upon installation and I have a beautifully laid out hard wood floor.

I would also like to mention that Gabriel was brought on to my account by a third party after two failed installation attempts by different contractors. He eased my frustrations and was so incredibly patient and kind, I recommend him to anyone.

Gabriel and his team are super productive and skilled. Our laminate project was heading in the wrong direction and we called GL Installations to resolve our problems. Yes, we thought we could save money on levelling but you need to know not to take short cuts on your floor installations and choose a professional, particularly GL Installations, to do the job correctly.

GL installation's rate was very reasonable. Our floors look beautiful and we are very pleased.

GL Installations was outstanding and resolved our problems. We highly recommend GL Installations.

I would highly recommend GL Installations Inc. From the onset and throughout my interactions with Gabriel, the owner, I experienced validation as a customer at a highly professional level. I received prompt replies to my phone calls and emails, the level of communication was direct, friendly and helpful, accommodations were made according to my schedule and time frame, the quality of workmanship was exempliary, precise and fully met my expectations. I am very pleased and grateful to have chosen GL Installations Inc.

Gabriel and his crew were efficient and thorough. They paid great attention to detail and left our apartment looking like new. They were friendly and professional.

Gabriel and crew did a good job and were on price with the quote they gave me. They did the job in a fast and effective manner and were very professional manor.

GL Installations did great work on our house. We did some of the prep but Gabriel and his team did the rest of the sub-floor prep, including a ton of levelling in our kitchen. Each day the guys were on time, prepared and working hard, I saw them for at least 3 of the days as I was home for a few days that they were working. I liked the way they treated each other and our home during our brief intereactions, they had a plan each day and they finished our baseboards and other trim pieces in a timely manner.

I was super impressed with GL Installation as they worked with me and my budget, always arrived on time, stayed until the job was done, and were always professional. Gabriel had a ton of patience for all my questions about doing this type of renovation and I would highly recommend this company as my floors look fantastic and were done right the first time.

I am very happy with the friendly & professional service and excellent work done, in my new flooring installation. Thank you Gabriel!

GL Installations is fantastic. They were referred to us by Jordan's Interiors when we purchased the flooring for our renovation.

GL installed hardwood in our living room, dining room, three bedrooms and hallway. In addition they installed the tiles in our kitchen and foyer.

The entire team at GL exhibited an unparalleled eye for detail and commitment to excellence. In addition they worked quickly and efficiently to ensure we lived through the least possible inconvenience during this major renovation.

We are coming up to the first anniversary of our new floor install. The floors are as gorgeous today as they were a year ago.

We would recommend GL Installations to a one looking for a first class install at an affordable price.

Great workmanship. great attitude .on time .polite ,highly recommended !!!

We purchased plank laminate flooring from Jordan's and they recommended GL Instllations-Home Renos to install it. I was very pleased with their work. They did a great job expertly and efficiently. I would highly recommend them.

I used Gabriel and his team for a renovation project prior to moving into my new apartment in Coal Harbour. The place had been trashed by a bad tenant and was in a horrid state. I needed the old carpet removed and disposed of, fitting new laminate and soundproof underlay, tilling in the kitchen bathroom and den, and painting the entire apartment including the bubble ceiling and gloss on doors and trim.

All this was done in less than 2 weeks right before Christmas and in a high rise where being quite, tidy and polite is essential to start off on the right foot with the neighbors and building manager, which they did. They even were great with my big dog being there and looked after him during the remo, well above and beyond the job.

I got supplier recommendations for both products from GL Instillations and got great deals on both. I did my homework on comparable's and their suppliers were by far the best quality and price. Gabriel also recommended products to get rid of the cat smell that was overpowering and that worked and no more cat smell.

GL Instillations completed the job on time on budget (which was not big), and did a fantastic job. I have recommend them to many of my friends and business associates.

Thanks again for doing a great job on time and with a great budget. V Macleod

Gabriel installed 500 ft of baseboards in our home. He only charged us the contractor's cost for the boards. He worked around our schedule, was on time, got the job done quickly, and cleaned up thoroughly. He even replaced some of our damaged laminate at no cost. The baseboards look fantastic. I would highly recommend GL Installations for any home renos.

Simply awesome

A big thanks to Gabriel and crew on a job well done. GREAT bunch of guys, very courteous and punctual.

Very professional, affordable and excellent result. I have recommended GL Instsallations to friends looking for a new floor and will continue to whenever I can.

Gabriel at GL Installations did a fantastic job of installing the flooring in our house. He was on time, clean, friendly and paid attention to detail. We would not hesitate to call him again if we needed work done.

Gabriel helped me right from the start of my project, answering any questions I had. He even was thinking about it hours later and called to tell me something that helped me in my pre install preparation. It was important to him that my project turned out the best possible. I would definitely use GL Installations again!

While purchasing our hardwood floor, we got verbal recommendation for "GL Installations" from the lady in the Richmond store where we were shopping for material. She said these guys were very fast. Since we had only 7 days to finish the reno (painting and flooring) before moving in, we hired GL Installations for the job, after they firmly promised to be done on time, and gave us their rates and cost estimate

That's were the nightmare begins.

Monday, the owner brought his (in my opinion very young crew) for the carpet removal around 1PM. They phoned back at 5PM, so I can come and pick the keys to the condo. I've noticed that they didn't finish removing of the baseboards completely, and some of the garbage and large old carpet pieces were still laying around, but I assumed it'll be done the next day.

However, later that day my wife had a phone conversation with the owner. He told her, that he changed his mind, that the job won't be done by Friday because he was going camping on Thursday. He told us that one of the youngsters was his brother, and he didn't want to pressure him with the timelines. He also added that some leveling needs to be done, and that would cost us additional $2,800. I would like to mention that during this conversation a rude tone in the owner voice was sensed. My wife and I consulted after that phone conversation, and we felt that we were given false promise, that this was not acceptable behavior on the owner side and decided not to proceed with GL Installations. We also had a feeling that his price for leveling was not realistic.

The very next day the owner phoned to come and pick his tools, and when we met, he gave me the invoice for the carpet removal. Almost $800. On his, obviously pumped bill he had items like: "portions of the carpet were glued and hard to remove - additional $100". When I complained about it, he threatened that he will charge me for being late to open condo for him to pick up his stuff. I forgot the keys and had to come back, so I was late about 30 minutes indeed. I am writing this in hope that other people won't go through the same experience..
