Testimonials

“Capolavoro Renovation Inc. is amazing!!  The owner, Alan Grieco,  is first-rate.  We bought my in-laws house and it required a lot of updating.  It was a whole house renovation.  New flooring top to bottom; new kitchen, finishing the basement, etc.  It was mostly cosmetic, but there was one load-bearing wall removed so we could make the kitchen larger.  We were given Alan’s name and called him, met with him and he agreed to take the project on.  We gave him our timeline and he worked within it.  He met with us weekly at the house to review the work/progress.  Any issues, he dealt with immediately.  He pointed out any problems and discussed them with us.  He is a wizard at working with all of his trades.  He is professional, on time, honest and a nice man.  We cannot thank him enough for the finished product and highly recommend him. “

“We had Alan and his team come just before the Christmas holidays to do a large basement renovation for us. The project was over 1000 square feet and was to include a bar, bathroom and entertainment areas for both our children and an area for recreation with pool table and gym. They completely delivered and far exceeded our expectations. The work was beautiful and the team was top notch! They were clean with their work, beyond friendly and always punctual and professional. We are so happy with our space and are already planning new projects to have their team come back.“

“I was referred to Capolavoro Renovation Inc. to assist me with my bathroom and kitchen renovations. It’s very rare that you find a contractor that truly understands your needs and provides honest recommendations and has high standards in their quality of work. This company truly embodies professionalism and quality workmanship. Although renovations can be very stressful on a homeowner, Capolavoro Renovation Inc. made the process easy and walked me through the process step by step. Starting with the quote process – the quote was detailed, reasonable, easy to understand and the final cost was almost exactly to the quote provided (as always, things come up during a renovation). They kept me informed throughout the renovation process and brought me in to make decisions as needed. His workers showed up on time, worked with great attention to detail, were professional, and cleaned up at the end of each day. They went above and beyond to get the job done! The project was completed on budget and on time! I highly recommend Capolavoro Renovation Inc. for Your future renovation needs. You will not find a better contractor and the peace of mind knowing you’re getting quality workmanship is priceless. I will definitely be using this company for my future renovation needs. I feel so fortunate to have been put in contact with this company. Not only have I found an amazing contractor!”

“We could not recommend Alan Grieco and his crew more vehemently than we already are.

From the very first visit to review our project in order to develop a quote, Alan showed creativity to identify options for our project’s challenges as well as a vision of what the end result could be. He was an easy choice to with whom to sign!

When looking for contractors to interview, we wanted some confidence in our options up front which is why we focused on the Baeumler Approved program. Alan embodies everything we know about what a contractor should be, who is endorsed by Bryan Baeumler. Throughout the project, Alan was extremely in touch with our needs and was constantly providing a daily status (sometimes 2x per day) along with providing continual heads up on the decisions required about materials. He and the team provided constant attention to detail and stopped work the minute they saw anything that didn’t make sense in order to involve us in the solution.

There was no nickle & diming us – Alan believes in full client satisfaction and constantly goes the extra mile to achieve it. Any options that did require additional funding were fully discussed along with the options and more than sufficient time was provided to make a decision.
Alan became a part of the family over our 10 week project – he and the crew were completely interactive with each one of us, including our daughters.

Again, I could not recommend Alan more – he was a fabulous contractor and we are so thrilled with the end result. It was like having Bryan Baeumler in charge of our project!”

“Alan and the Capolavoro team,
We just wanted to take a moment to let you know how happy we are with the look and feel of our updated home. It was a lot of hard work and the results are amazing!

Great job and a pleasure to work with!“

“Alan and his guys came in to build an in-law suite for us. Not only was their workmanship great, but their attitude was also as well. Always willing to help, constantly asking before doing and going the extra mile. They were a pleasure to have around AND finished the work on schedule! In addition, they were all great with my 3-year-old and my pets. I couldn’t have asked for more and wouldn’t hesitate to use Alan again, or recommend him to others!”

“Alan Grieco with assistance from his team did a wonderful job renovating our kitchen. From start to finish it was done professionally and on time. When an unforeseen problem with our existing cabinets arose, he solved it quickly and at no extra cost to us. We will contact him again if needed and will gladly recommend him to family and friends.“

“Al was recommended to us by a family member who had their main bathroom fully renovated by him and his team. They could not say enough good things and we learned why very quickly.

It was a pleasure working with Al for our basement reno’s – we required new plumbing to re-do the bathroom to include a shower. The work required the floor to be dug up, all new piping and relocation of where facilities went.  He was eager to share what he knows and provided tips on everything. He was key in helping us see the whole project and guided us in making the right decisions on other work we had to do.

Al is generous with his time and knowledge, is always smiling and does what he says he is going to do and when he says he will do it. He is upfront and honest and we very highly recommend him and his team.“

“Top quality work done by a reliable contractor at a fair price – that’s Capolavoro Renovation Inc. Last fall I took possession of an older home and immediately discovered serious plumbing and electrical problems. I was overwhelmed and didn’t know where to turn. A relative recommended Alan at Capolavoro. Alan responded immediately and came to my rescue. His prompt action,, competence and flexibility in dealing with each new issue that arose gave me a peace of mind that I wouldn’t have believed possible under such stressful circumstances. He looked after everything for me, calling in other professionals from his extensive network of trusted contacts when necessary. I cannot say enough about how positive this experience was for me. Alan returned in January to complete further renovations to my home, again to the highest standards of quality. Thank you Alan and Corey!!

“From start to finish we were very pleased with your team and the work provided. All work was completed on time and each stage of the project was completed within budget. We were most impressed with the high standard you impose upon your output product. The end result is one beautiful bathroom created out of empty space. We would definitely contact your company again without reservation.”

“Ours certainly wasn’t a straightforward job! Thank you for your patience, creativity and flexible thinking to complete our bathroom to our wishes and in keeping with the character of our older home.

We appreciated your professionalism. The quality of your work and the integrity of your character. It has been a pleasure working with you and Corey!“

“We hired Alan to help us update a new house we had purchased in April 2016. In total, we had to redo 2 bathrooms, a kitchen floor, a den floor, and finish our basement (quite a lot). We met with three contractors and choose to go with Alan as he seemed to have a very realistic approach and was straight forward and knowledgeable about all of our needs. Well, boy are we lucky we choose him! Not only did he finish early, and with a very high level of detail and quality, but he finished below our estimated budget! He was so easy to communicate with, and we even asked for a few extra things around the house and he was always obliging and very professional. When I get more work done in the future, I won’t bother getting multiple quotes, we will definitely be going back to Alan, and I highly recommend the same for anyone else!”

“Honest! Professional! Incredible!

Bravo… A job well done!!”

“Alan and his crew renovated our bathroom last fall and 6 months late we are still delighted with the results. Our new bathroom is a joy to use and we are no longer embarrassed to point our guests in the direction of the bathroom.

Thank You Alan.”

“My first experience with my home renovation was tough and time-consuming. Deadlines were missed, the quality of work was off and I was disappointed. After this experience, I decided to hold off on the remaining renovations I wanted to complete in my home.

Renovations with Capolavoro are easy, seamless, and the way to go for anyone looking for a small or big job. This team exceeds all expectations and I am confident to refer Capolavoro to anyone!”

“Our first project with Alan Grieco at Capolavoro Renovations was in the ensuite bathroom of the master bedroom. Alan and his assistant Corey removed an old shabby shower stall, built a ledge and tiled a new shower stall, creating a larger brighter space. Alan also replaced two old sinks and faucets and the toilet. He coordinated his work with our plans to paint the room ourselves and install new baseboards, thinking ahead for our convenience in what order the work should proceed. When the faucet in our other bathroom broke during the week, Alan stayed after working hours to fix it, providing the needed piece from his supplies at no charge to us. He always arrived on time and cleaned up before leaving each day. He and Corey were always polite and never wasted time on the job. Alan took time to show me how to remove the faucet filter and clean it.

Thank you, Alan, for your care and workmanship. We heartily recommend you to other homeowners.”

“Alan Grieco of Capolavoro Renovations has worked on two of our renovations projects.

We highly recommend Capolavoro Renovations.”

“Just a quick note to say Thank You for your excellent work on our recent bathroom renovation. Your cooperative and innovative attitude was refreshing. Your attention to detail resulted in a quality job. Most renovators take a let me do it all approach resulting in the client feeling pressured to buy what the renovator suggests versus what the client wants. You helped us with our choices and then put everything in place just the way we wanted it. A rewarding experience. Please feel free to have prospective clients contact us for a reference.”

“Our new master bathroom shower is amazing! Your skilled work is superb and totally affordable. You demonstrated commitment and dedication rebuilding our downstairs bathroom. Your communication skills, unique ideas, and work ethic are certainly an asset to your company. We are totally satisfied with your professional renovations in our home and will definitely recommend you to others. Thank you for your outstanding work.”

“Thank you, Alan and the Capolavoro Renovation Team!

Thank you so much for helping to make our house a home!”

“Rick and I absolutely love our bathroom. You were professional, efficient and courteous. The workmanship is superb. We can’t thank you enough for making our small bathroom into such a wonderfully large, efficient area. Thanks so much.”

“When I heard that my good friend Alan now was a contractor, I said to myself, ho, ho not another Tim THE TOOLMAN Taylor. Joke’s aside, I knew that I would be very pleased and happy with the results.

This small apartment bathroom now looks much bigger and brighter than ever. Thanks for the good work, friendly advice and the good company!!!”

“Once again you and your crew outdid yourselves on the renovation of our home. Your company and crew amazed us with their knowledge, talents, and professionalism in all aspects of this major renovation. The contract you have with other companies saved us time and money.

Your motto of Another Quality Renovation is justifiable.  Thanks.”

“CAPOLAVORO – The Company we recommend for your renovation needs. 

If you are doubtful of this testimonial, we would be happy to show you first hand.
Sincerely appreciative.”

“Thank for the excellent renovation work which you recently completed. I am so impressed and delighted by the professional quality of workmanship. Your commitment to detail and customer satisfaction is most evident.

Thank you for a job well done!”

“Just wanted to say how pleased we are with the fence you erected around our property last year. We are very pleased with the results. At the time we marveled at how quickly you worked, yet how easy you made it look! All the way through, you were pleasant and courteous. We received excellent advice on design and usage, and choosing suitable materials. There was no wastage or overcharging. You are definitely the builder of choice – one we trust and continually recommend.”

“We’ve had our new fence for a few days now and we just want to let you know how happy we are with your work. The fence is very well constructed, it looks good and will last for many years. We would recommend your work and professionalism to others.

Thanks again.”

“Alan, we are so lucky that you were recommended as a contractor. In June 2007, you and your crew came to our house and made the impossible, possible. You took what we considered a rundown washroom (ugly colours, small and broken down) and made it beautiful. Words cannot express how lucky we were.

You can see the pride you took in your work. You were very professional and accommodating. The fact that you were very knowledgeable and able to give us guidance assisted in getting the job done with very little disruption to us.

We highly recommend Capolavoro Renovations for your future renovation needs. We also look forward to working with you again as we renovate our kitchen
and living room area.”

“My fences and gazebo were done by Capolavoro. I am writing to testify that I am quite happy with the excellent job. Specifically, the job was of good quality; the company took my needs into consideration; the service was satisfactory, and the price was reasonable. I would recommend this company to friends.

Thank you Alan.”

“Hi Al,

Finally got around to doing my testimonial. 

I just wanted to say thanks for the great work on my porch. The work was done quickly and professionally and there wasn’t even a trace of the old porch. You ensured that everything was cleaned up from my yard. Everyone that has come by has been commenting on how good the new porch looks.

I would recommend your work to anyone.”

Thank you Alan.”
