We were extremely pleased with the work done by Tony Pavicic and his team and would HIGHLY recommend hiring him again!
There were a series of difficult events leading up to the build - delays in obtaining a permit from the city, delays in obtaining the trusses and other critical pieces of material for the build, weather related delays and overbearing neighbours.
Extremely Professional:
Tony handled all the delays with such professionalism and grace. He kept us completely informed every step of the way and reassured us that the work would be done within the estimated time period. He found discrepancies in the architectural drawings and would patiently take the time to his concerns and provided solutions.
Able to Appease Difficult Neighbours:
Our neighbours were not happy when we notified them of the pending addition. In fact our neighbours opposed the addition at the Committee of Adjustments. Tony and his team were so professional and cordial with our neighbours. Our neighbour in fact paid us a compliment on hiring Tony as he and his team were extremely considerate about the noise, parking their vehicles on the road so that no one was blocked in getting out of their driveway and how they positioned equipment on my neighbours property for portions of the build. (Phew!)
Quality of Work:
Tony is extremely meticulous and it shows in his work. We are extremely happy with the high quality of this work. Now that we've been home for a year - everything has held up very well with no issues whatsoever.
Work Completed On Time:
His work ethic is astonishing! He was on site EVERY DAY, from morning until late afternoon - we never had periods where the house was left unworked on. My health took a turn for the worst during the construction period. We notified Tony of this news and he and his team worked tirelessly to get us back in our home sooner than his estimated timeframe so that I could be at ease while going through treatment. We were so incredibly appreciative of his commitment to getting us home in time for Christmas. He left our home (interior and exterior) in a very clean state.
Pricing:
We were slightly over budget due to us changing the scope of the work and other COVID pricing events - Tony kept us informed along the way so we were not shocked/taken aback once the final invoice came through.
We are extremely thankful Tony accepted our project and are already looking forward to hiring Tony for a Phase 2 project.
We are very pleased with the work done by Tony Pavicic and his crew.
It was a big job and dirty work too. Tony worked tirelessly from beginning to end and was very helpful in suggesting ideas on what would work well in our situation. Tony was flexible in dealing with other trades also working in the same area and with power interruptions etc.
Tony’s workmanship and experience was essential in the success of our project.
Thank you very much Tony
We are happy to provide this review and our recommendation of the work that Kingsway Home improvements completed for us in 2022. Tony had to deal with typical construction issues as well as all the challenges that Covid created. Perhaps the most meaningful way of describing his work is by using words he told us. He works "as if he is working on his own home".
Work was done in a timely manner. As the consumer we would expect that, but we also know this often is not the case. The addition doubled the size of the house. His trades respected his timelines and we were confident at all times with the progress being made.
The house is over 100 years old and that can lead to some unanticipated challenges. Tony brought ideas and solutions to all the challenges.
To conclude, would we hire Tony agin? Yes, without hesitation.
Tony and his crew did a renovation and build for a family home that was as follows --a complete tear down of existing back porch and upper room and rebuilt a new addition. The completed job was done in a timely fashion. I had given details and they were followed to the letter and I was kept well informed since the job was not near my location and the owner was in hospital. Trust was no problem Tony had the key and did excellent work on the rebuild. He just finished a total gut job of our ensuite and main bathroom. The tile work was done very well in both bathrooms. Again all work was done in a timely fashion and of great quality. Tony keeps you informed if he has to leave for parts etcetra. Our new hardwood floors look great after he removed all the old carpet and kept everything super clean during the job. All old carpet was removed and disposed of by him nothing was left behind on site. He quoted the jobs accurately never having to raise the price and took payment after work was done not before. Will be happy to have Tony back to do more work this year.
We hired Tony several years ago to update our kitchen. He was unempathetic about his subcontractor's errors. For example, we needed to move some HVAC from a wall we were removing. The plan was to hide it within a cupboard that was being custom built by the supplier Tony had recommended. However, after his HVAC guy moved the ductwork, it stuck out so far into the room that the cabinet was not going to hide the duct. Tony’s solution was to shrug and tell us we would have to add a box to cover it up. This was not a satisfactory response and so we insisted that his HVAC guy come back to fix it. After a second attempt to move the ductwork, it still was sticking out too far and we had to have someone else come in to fix the work. This was a common theme throughout the project. He also lacked the critical thinking skills to assess the layout of a house to make recommendations about project execution. He failed to identify something as simple as the location of the plumbing stack in a wall we wanted to move until after he had opened it up. In hindsight the location was obvious based on bathroom locations and could have been easily identifiable by taking a quick look at the roof from the street (but at the time we didn't know about about these kinds of things and relied on Tony). Kingsway offers a solid level of handyman services, but I wouldn’t recommend them for anything more than a basic project.
We contacted Tony to finish our home renovations after we fired our previous contractor who completely botched up the work and left a disaster. Tony explained in detail everything he was going to do clean up the mess left and continue the unfinished work to complete the job. We were pleased and hired him. The work ethic and quality of work was evident from day 1. Tony would continually show us things and whenever he had an issue he explained to us how he would fix them. While installing flooring in the master bedroom he found and handed me a long lost diamond stone that fell out of a setting years ago . The honesty just blew us away and we were thrilled. He told us to complete the job would take 2 1/2 to 3 weeks and he was bang on. He went over and above and took care of issues that were not even part of the contract. Any other work that needs to be done Tony is the one we will call. Reasonably priced, great workmanship and just the friendliest crew. We would not hesitate to recommend Tony and Kingsway Home improvements.
Tony and his crew are very reliable and professional. They successfully completed a total gut job and corrected many problems created by the previous owners in my 1928 basement bathroom such as outdated pipes, lack of appropriate venting and they installed all new framing and insulation. The work started and finished on time and on budget, and I have been very pleased with the results. I have had many compliments on the quality of the work by friends and family. I would highly recommend Tony and his crew for home renovation projects.
my neighbour was having some work done and asked if I would like to see it, I was impressed with what I saw and decided to hire Tony to do some work for me, I would recommend him to others to do work. Anyone that has seen the work was as impressed as I was I found Tony to be a very hard working and reliable.
Tony at Kingsway Home Improvement was Top Notch! He and his team built our addition and completed our interior renovation.
We hired Kingsway after interviewing a number of contractors. It was essential that we hire someone who provoked confidence and reliability. Clearly, we found that KHI met our needs and were confident signing on with them. Reference checks were all very complimentary.
The project was handled professionally on time and on budget. The Kitchen itself is stunning. His guidance was invaluable and his patience with our many questions was really appreciated. Tony’s suggestions and recommendations on materials/products & colours considered our desires and needs to ensure our happiness and budget.
His team kept a tidy job site and were respectful of our neighbours. We received compliments on his team from our neighbours.
Tony was always responsive to our calls and managed our expectations. We have no hesitation to recommending him to our family and friends.
We are very pleased with the work that Kingsway Home Improvements provided at our Etobicoke home. The scope of the work was extensive and our expectations were exceeded. The job was started and completed within the allotted time. Tony is a skilled "hands on" contractor who takes pride in his work. I would not hesitate to recommend Tony and his team.
