My wife and I had a really good experience with Trevor replacing our 10x16' deck, so much that I had him back to do some stairs. I was replacing a 20 year-old deck that was looking dodgy and went with Trevor because his price was competitive and he offered the most reasonable solutions (it was over sloped rock) without being too high-pressure.
The work was to replace concrete footings and the deck structure with a new one with vinyl decking and an aluminum railing. Trevor and his apprentice did the footings and structure and the decking and railing were done by sub-contractors. They were great to work with and extremely accommodating. He knew that I was concerned about safety, with the deck being 14' up, and he went well beyond code on the lumber, footings, and connectors. The inspector's comment was simply "now, that's a solid deck". Despite this, there were no extra charges and we paid the original amount quoted.
The only real issue was with it taking a week or so longer than expected due to the sub-contractors' schedules. In all fairness, Trevor scheduled this project in-between other jobs because he knew that I was worried about the safety of the old deck. The delay wasn't a big deal for us and I'm not holding it against him in my rating.
We had a variety of smaller carpentry projects inside our home, and what we thought was a straightforward exterior siding replacement completed by TRED in 2017. All the work was done professionally, and we are very happy with the results. Worksites were kept safe and clean, and Trevor was very organized with the paperwork, which outlined exactly the expectations for us as his customer and his company. We particularly appreciated his flexibility with scheduling to get our work done. We encountered some surprises and challenges, as many older homes have. Trevor and his partner and staff were great at listening, problem solving and being innovative while keeping our budget in mind. Trevor installed some decorative tile for us, which was a last minute addition to the job, and he paid attention to subtle differences in tile colour, symmetry and overall design, that went beyond our expectation. We were fortunate to have found this contractor and recommend them to anyone wanting to do a reno or carpentry.
This was our 2nd job with TRED Homes and another great experience. Trevor is professional, punctual and does an amazing job. We appreciated his attention to detail and truly felt he was treating our house, as his own. Highly recommended.
After living with our newly renovated bedroom, ensuite and laundry room for a few months we felt we had to share our thoughts about Tred Homes Ltd. We are at the proper site to post a review as they truly are "Trusted Pros". Trevor, Dustin, Edmund, Lynn and Calib are all craftsmen who do excellent and meticulous work and are very professional. From start to finish our renovation went smoothly and was finished on time and under budget. They listened to our wants and needs and were always there with excellent advice when we were stuck with some details. Any time we had a meeting they were always on time or if we had to contact them about something Trevor always got back to us within 24 hours or sooner.
Our reno was finished the middle of July and my husband and I still marvel at how much more useable space we have and how much we love our bedroom and ensuite. The shower that we wanted was something that was new to them and it turned out exactly as we had envisioned it. The laundry room is fantastic and for the first time in our married life (46 yrs.) we have room in our closet for all our clothes - winter and summer.
We have just signed a new contract with Tred Homes to change our basement into a legal suite. We broke all the rules of finding a contractor for this reno because we didn't get an estimate or talk with any other contractor before engaging Tred Homes Ltd. We know the estimate is fair and all the work will be done properly with the utmost care and workmanship. We are excited about working with them again and grateful that they could fit us into their schedule.
Our elderly parents moved in with us and after awhile we knew we needed to renovate our one and only bathroom and make it more accessible yet not medical looking. After lots of thought, a meeting with Trevor from Tred Homes along with Dustin of DRG Plumbing and several emails back and forth we decided to go ahead with the project. We changed the layout of the bathroom, had a new custom vanity made with two sinks instead of one as we used to have. I would recommend anyone with one bathroom consider two sinks...it has made a big difference for us. The other big difference for us was getting rid of the bathtub and having Tred Homes custom build us a walk in tiled shower. Wow....we are so very pleased with the shower.
We met with Dustin of DRG Plumbing at a local plumbing store and he showed us our options and answered our questions as well as kept us within budget. We decided on a hand held shower that can slide up and down a safety grab bar as well as a rain shower. To finish the shower area nicely Trevor did some hunting and found us a beautiful glass sliding shower door that fit perfectly.
We are very pleased with the outcome of our bathroom renovation. Trevor and Dustin were friendly and professional during the entire project. They were respectful of the fact we needed to have my parents away for the week our plumbing and toilet were out and had the toilet back in when they said they would. They had runner mats to put down on our floors for the workmen to walk on and rolled them up after each work day. They swept the bathroom floor before leaving and even vacuumed when needed. We have no hesitation in hiring them again for future projects and no hesitation recommending them to anyone needing renovations.
Trevor delivered exceptional work to our bathroom renovation. He was flexible with scheduling, attentive and a great communicator with both myself and the tenant. The craftsmanship was outstanding. Demo was handled with great professionalism (unit was part of a strata), overall I could not be more impressed. If you are considering a renovation or bathroom upgrade, Tred Homes should be your first choice.
Trevor was great right from the initial consult, he listened to our needs and was happy to offer many solutions and options for us to consider. Tred Homes was very professional and pleasant to deal with during the project and made every effort to minimize the impact of the construction on our family during the process. Trevor and his crew did an amazing job on the custom cabinets and design, the attention to detail was top notch. In the end we got our dream kitchen, on time, on budget, with no surprises. Great job!

My house is not new. Especially the basement was old, cool, dark feeling and no shower.
So, I have wanted to refresh my basement for long time but I didn't have a big budget for my basement renovation. At that time, Tred Homes became kind and listened to my requests. And then they met my budget to do them.
I already hired Tred Homes before, so I trusted their works with 100%. They met my expectation again. I really appreciate Tred Homes team.
We recently had the pleasure of the Gaboury family (& Caleb) renovating our kitchen. Their work was exemplary. They do the job right the first time as well as being on time and on budget. The final product was better than we expected. Right from the first consultation we knew they were the right company for us. We enjoyed having them in our house and plan to use them again in the near future.
I can't tell you how happy I am with my new kitchen! Trevor was a pleasure to work with!
Always on time, willing to listen to my concerns and offering suggestions. He was willing to work within my budget and stick to it, all work was done on schedule and his craftsmanship is absolutely outstanding.
I know I would want to work with him and his team again for future projects. I highly recommend his company!
