What set them apart was clear and regular communications, meetings on site, and regular updates on the budget so there were no surprises. Every time the trade invoice came above the original estimation we were consulted, and no decision was made without our sign off. The timeline they gave us was very accurate and work was finished with only a month delay. They have multiple trades, in one case when we were not happy with the trade they switched the trade and redid the work with no additional cost to us. Overall, we are quite happy with how our renovation was done and recommend them for their quality work. **Comment from Alair Homes Toronto:** > Thank you for your kind words. We really enjoyed working with you and hope you enjoy your beautiful space for many wonderful years to come. **★★★★★ — Mirelle Goren Interiors, Feb. 2023** > As an industry professional in interior design I have always enjoyed working on projects with Alair! With their many years of experience they make the home reno/build process smooth and efficient. Their teams are organized, professional and a pleasure to be around. They bring in only the best trades and hold their workmanship to the highest of standards. I look forward to working with them again in the future and would definitely recommend them to my clients. **Comment from Alair Homes Toronto:** > Thank you, Mirelle! We love working with you too, and appreciate your beautiful design, collaborative approach, and creative out of the box thinking. Can’t wait to bring your next brilliant vision to life. **★★★★★ — Megan Lorius, May 2022** > The team at Alair Homes Forest Hill is so professional -- and fun! The entire process from initial iquiry to project completion was supported by open and clear commuications, regular budget and timeline updates, and personable check-ins. They have a wide network of trade partners who are also best-in-class professionals. Through their detailed record keeping and client portal there are no surprises, and every aspect of the project can be referenced at any time. As with any large project, with many moving parts, and variables out of their hands (a worldwide pandemic!), our project had a few hurdles, but the Alair team cleared them and exceeded our expectations in ensuring everything was perfect. **★★★★★ — W P, Jan. 2022** > We chose Alair to help us build an addition to our home, having used them before to completely renovate the existing structure. And, as before, we were incredibly happy with the process and the outcome. Alair's general approach is something that appealed to us, but their project managers add to the overall experience. In our case, Andrew P. ensured that we were taken care of from beginning to end, communicating consistently and openly along the way. He was there to ensure all the details were taken care of and that our priorities were considered at every step. We'd use Alair again, and feel very confident in recommending them to anyone we know. **★★★★★ — randy rosenberg, Oct. 2021** > Alair did a great job realizing the designs that we had chosen. We had a strong vision of what we wanted and it was amazing to see it materialize as the project went on. They had a strong project management practice which got the project done in a timeframe that we were impressed with. Their system is very transparent so you know where you are with budget and timing. There were not any gotchas that we found out about after the money was spent. We were able to make choices in real time and see the effect on our budget. They also did not disappear after we moved in, and moved the inevitable trail of things towards completion. Overall we had a great experience with them. **Comment from Alair Homes Toronto:** > Randy, Thank you so much for your kind words and for being such a stellar client. We adored working with you and bringing your vision to life. Thank you for trusting us on your home's transformation. We hope you enjoy it for many many years to come. **★★★★★ — HU-56593564, Oct. 2019** > Always a pleasure working with a company that has intelligent knowledgeable project managers and skilled staff. Makes our job easier and more affordable for the client they serve. **★★★★★ — Shirley Meisels, Oct. 2019** > Alair Homes Forest HIll is the BEST! So easy to work with. Always professional and I know my clients will be happy with their work so I have no problem recommending them on my projects. > They are totally transparent, timely and on budget, not to mention pleasant! **★★★★★ — Erik B, Oct. 2019** > Top quality, Service and overall experience! - They are great to work with and the whole team is extremely professional! Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — Prime Care Service, Jan. 2019** > As a Residential and Commercial cleaning company, we have been part of the detail cleaning of many homes and commercial builders. One of the many positive things we can say about Alair Homes is the stunningly beautiful projects we have seen, their incredible skills and friendly staff onsite and at the office makes our job easier. > You need things executed with professionalism and highly skilled trades, Alair Homes is the solution! **★★★★★ — Adriano M., Dec. 2018** > Very professional, customer and quality service oriented. Worked alongside their crews in a Toronto downtown project. Will deliver your project in time and budget.

We love our house thanks to them! **Comment from Alair Homes Toronto:** > Thank you so much for your kind words! We loved working on your home, and wish you and your beautiful family many years of wonderful memories there. **★★★★★ — User, April 2017** > We recently completed a full home renovation and had the pleasure of working with Andrew and Chad throughout the process. > Our initial meeting with Andrew put us at ease as he was low pressure and prioritized transparency. After meeting Chad, our project manager I immediately appreciated thoroughness and honesty. > > Throughout the renovation I found that both Chad and Andrew were always available to chat, managed the project well and were open with us, giving us the opportunity to make the big decisions with lots of information and consultation. Moreover, the quality of work was fantastic and I remain impressed nine months following the completion of the project. > > I continue to be impressed with Chad's follow ups months after the renovations are completed. It is clear that he prioritizes the client's satisfaction over the long term, which speaks to his interest in doing quality work. > > I would highly recommend Alair to anyone that I know and, should the opportunity arise in the future, I would definitely work with them again. ## Selected projects - [\#AHFHHudson - Fashion Inspired Custom Home in Moore Park](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ahfhhudson-fashion-inspired-custom-home-in-moore-park-pj-vj~7787042) - Location: Toronto, ON - Photos: 14 - Description: From the flowing ‘ribbon’ staircase to the meticulous ‘stitching’ in the brickwork, this home is a sartorial masterpiece—an ode to fashion in every detail. - [\#AHFHHowland - Traditional Whole Home Renovation and Addition in the Annex](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ahfhhowland-traditional-whole-home-renovation-and-addition-in-the-annex-pj-vj~5521290) - Location: Toronto, ON - Photos: 54 - Description: This Annex beauty got the royal treatment.
