R.C. Renovations

Ron Crook is a CROOK... it is written right in his name. BEWARE... Do not enter into a contract with him.... He appears to be very friendly and professional in the beginning by returning phone calls and answering questions. Requested 50% deposit up front. Once received we had a few more interactions and then the calls dropped off. Our project was never completed and we never received a refund. He stopped returning our countless calls, emails and text messages. STAY AWAY from this guy!! What a Scam!!

SCAM, BEWARE!!!! R C Renovations took our money in May and never showed up again to do any work. The owner Ron Crook has not returned our calls or texts ever since!!!

Our co-operative has used this contractor for several projects - Ron and his sons/crew came out to do my fence and I watched and took pics. They were very knowledgable and friendly as well as quick, efficiant and tidy.

Our co-op will more than likely use this company again :-)

ALSO.... Please note that after reading over some of the other reviews, my opinion is that some of these reviews MAY be about a different company with a similar name as some of the "facts" didn't seem correct to me. But that is my humble opinion.

This business is a complete SCAM. Ron demanded 20% plus all the material cost up front. He was supposed to start the job on June 1st- he was a no show- all month he has worked less than one full day. So far he's torn up our backyard and we haven't seen him since. He dodges our calls, emails and texts. Occasionally we will get a text with a vague excuse: my family member is ill, RONA messed up the order, Home Depot messed up the order, my phone isn't working are among the many excuses he gives. He continues not to show up to work despite all the mo Rey we have given him. He says all the right things and lulls you into a false sense of security, as soon as he receives money from you- that's when he stops communication. This man is a fraud and this business is a huge scam. Better Business Bureau rating is an F. I hope no one else falls into this scam the way that my family did. I would be very surprised if the few positive reviews are real- I think it's more likely that they are friends doing him a favour. BEWARE.

R.C Renovations, by Ron Crook is a scam. He presents a very professional image. He has a legitimate looking contract. He insists on two thirds of the project cost up front (one third on signing on and one third on 'starting day')... he shows up to make markings to collect the cash then NEVER showed up again.

Buyer beware. I would NEVER recommend him to any one. Ron Crook (ironically, that is his name) did not answer phone calls once he was paid. He did not respond to texts. He did not respond to emails.

WOW, what can I say R.C. Renovations surprised me with their quick turnaround (they didn't cut corners either) on the remodel of my kitchen and stayed within my budget and timeline! I love my new kitchen...Ron and his crew were respectful and kept me informed throughout the process. I would highly recommend them.

My dealings with Ron Crook (R.C. Renovations) were great. Ron is very responsive and does high quality work. The tables were made to my exact specifications, and look awesome in our family room.

Thanks Ron for an awesome job.

I would definitely recommend him to family and friends!

My experience with R.C. Renovations was very professional and completed to my satisfaction. It was a pleasure dealing with Ron and his crew, kept me informed every step of the project. My basement renovation is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks Ron....job well done.

contractor Kenneth Ron Cook or Crook, was very eager to get me to sign the contract for his company RC Renovations to build my fence and some of my neighbours as well. HE WAS ALWAYS AVAILABLE until contract signed july 8, $700 deposit, balance of $700 due upon completion, non refundable deposit, do not give this man your money, he asked me to call city for locates of power-lines etc make sure area is clear, did that, provided him with measurement of yard from survey given to me when i purchased the house, i've done my part, it is now Sept 2 and the fence is yet to be built, hasn't even started, he was supposed to start Sept 1st as per a text he sent me, i haven't seen him or spoken to him since July, he will only text me, cant get my full refund back, i can cancel my contract in writing and mail to address on contract, however the 1st address 4 Edvac Dr is another company unrelated to RC Renovations, a fake address, the 2nd address is a townhome in Mississauga that belongs to his girlfriend. no actual office. possibly a second fake address. no one answers your phone call at the business number after you've given your deposit very shady. anyways Sept 2 RC renovations was a no-show, with no communication/explanation and no idea if they are actually coming. Also other neighbours talking of the bad quality of work, fences wabbly, doesn't answer calls for warranty fixes, simply ignores all clients VERY DISAPPOINTING & STRESSFUL PROJECT

A contract was awarded on 14th November 2014 to Kenneth Ron Crook c/o RC Renovations to build a basement as per drawings provided (approved by City Of Mississauga). The total contract amount that was agreed stipulated fixed cost basis all inclusive. As per contract the first payment due upon signing of contract was made on 17th of November 2014 and second payment of which was due upon completion of framing, sub-floor, electric and plumbing roughing was paid on 23rd December 2014. Full completion of the basement was due on January 16 2015. I have given eight more working days to complete the project. So far framing, sub-floor, electrical, drywall and plumbing roughing have been done.

Contractor also taken from me CAD 2000 for electrical upgrade to 200 AMP on 6th February 2015 giving me false statement. work not yet done). CAD 1500 was paid as an advance payment from the payment due upon completion.

Ron has stopped work approximately 5 months ago, and despite my efforts giving various offers and in asking him to complete work as per contract he did not restart the work as yet, completion date as per contract which was January 16 2015. He has also taken all his tools from the site.

I have also asked Ron to provide Business Renovator license copy which he did not provide

Ron also did not pickup my phone and respond email
