TLC finished our basement right in the middle of a COVID outbreak. We really appreciated their attention to safety. We never once felt in danger having extra people at our house. The basement itself is amazing. It came out exactly as we expected and we will definitely invite them back to help us with future work.

Great team! From the initial contact, design, build, through completion they maintained the best schedule possible during COVID-19 pandemic. This was done by constant communication from my contact Celeste. She definitely knew her stuff when it came to my needs for changes to my house to deal with my mobility issues. The lead hand Brad was extremely knowledgeable and professional throughout. He was pivotal to ensuring the final product was exactly as described. Excellent work by all their trusted contractors. Definitely will recommend them for any project and will use them again soon.

As this was our first experience with a home reno, we asked around to get recommendations for reliable contractors. Most never even replied to phone calls. In sheer frustration we took a leap of faith and randomly called Total Living Concepts in Barrie. What a stroke of luck that turned out to be!!
Celeste returned our call right away and we set up an appointment to get together. She showed up right to the minute (as was the case throughout the project). She immediately saw our vision for a new kitchen and front entry. We felt very comfortable going forward with this company. As with most renovations, ours expanded beyond the original plan and we added an overhaul to the lower level office/guest room.
We can’t recommend Total Living Concepts highly enough! The people were fabulous and paid meticulous attention to details. Concerns were addressed immediately, no matter how small. We are so very thrilled with the end result!

We hired Total Living Concepts to install a quartz counter top, new sink and faucet, new gas stove and small wall microwave/convection/ steam oven. Before doing any of this, the old gas stove with downdraft had to be removed and the new gas stove had to be installed making sure that the downdraft was realigned with the existing HVAC system. Also, a custom made cabinet had to be fabricated to encase the new wall oven so that it looked "built-in". Total Living Concepts provided workmanship that was exceptional. The guys were very professional, showed up on time and didn't leave until the job was completed. They were courteous, attentive to our concerns, answered our many questions and worked with as little disruption to us as possible! They were all very knowledgable and provided quality work. We did change our minds about a number of details during the project which added to the cost; however, these issues were discussed and agreed end upon before proceeding. It should be noted that the project was supposed to begin the end of July but when our new stove was delivered by TA Appliances, unfortunately, it was damaged and had to be returned and reordered which set the start date back which was no fault of Total Living Concepts. TLC accommodated us by giving us another date shortly afterwards even though they were busy. We really appreciated this!! Because of the close communication with Celeste, our design consultant, there were no surprises at the end in terms of cost. Again, we very much appreciated this!! We give a big shout out especially to Celeste, Robert, who supervised the work, and Jody, who worked tirelessly each day and always with a smile on his face!! Thank you to all who worked on our project from Total Living Concepts!!! We couldn't have chosen a better company that did everything....a one-stop shop.

Thanks Total Living Concepts for a well executed renovation of our kitchen/dining room.
A few months ago, we considered a kitchen renovation and approached the company to discuss our ideas. The $1,500 design fee was money well spent to get a professional plan, that was deductible from the total cost. Celeste Pilon prepared an efficient design that required only minor changes to meet our needs. Her material and colour recommendations were also perfect. She followed the progress of the project throughout to ensure we were satisfied.
Rob Tolles was the site supervisor who was either on site, or available by phone to solve unforeseen problems quickly. He also ensured that we were aware of any delays or schedule changes.
The tradesmen were always polite and steady workers who ensured entry routes were protected, work area was enclosed to contain dust and that the area was vacuumed regularly. The work area was always secured when workers were absent.
The final inspection found only minor concerns that were quickly rectified. The city and electrical inspectors were pleased with the quality of the completed work.
In the end, we can state that this company made every effort to complete the renovation with minimal disruption.

Total Living Concepts provided an excellent professional experience from beginning to end. Right from the initial ballpark quoting on our design concepts and ideas earlier in that year right through to the actual commencement and completion of the construction later in the year. Designer Celeste's knowledge and recommendations provided us with a polished end design and was able to keep us on budget, a real pleasure to deal with! The TLC crew in the field was also fantastic. They were friendly and respectful, always kept the site as clean as could be, provided recommendations where possible and always kept you in the loop of scheduling. The TLC crew also provided quality workmanship, spent the time needed to get the job done right the first time. Communication from top to bottom was impressive, as a homeowner, you were never left guessing at any stage, which is extremely important when undertaking an investment of this proportion. A great company to deal with. Will certainly be back for more! In the monster world of reno's and construction, you pay for what you get!
Sincerely,
The Verbrugge Family

I have worked with TLC for several years now and their entire team is wonderful. I have seen first hand between 30-40 of their projects in person and the attention to detail of their designs and work is unparalleled to others in their field. I highly recommend TLC to anyone looking to have renovations done on their home or a beautiful outdoor space built.

We had our master ensuite renovated. I have no design sense and was struggling with what to do. KIm at TLC came to the rescue! She created a beautiful design and helped me select everything, from tiles to cabinets. Everyone in this company, from the designers to the tradespeople are professional and friendly. They all cleaned up after every visit. I would recommend this company to anyone.

After living in our home for 28 years we really need a face lift for our kitchen. We were quite impressed with the professionalism, knowledge and the quality of their work. The project was in budget and completed on time. I now love my kitchen! In the future when we're ready to do more renovations Total Living Concepts will be the only people I'll call?

Thank you! Merci to Kim and the Total Living Concepts team!! We had our kitchen and bathroom done and they did a super job. My husband suffers from Early Onset Alzheimer’s and Kim, a great designer, designed a bathroom and kitchen to reduce stress for an Alzheimer’s household.
They are great!
My husband needed some accommodations during the renovation process, and all their employees were very compassionate and accommodating. It made his daily life easier. Each of the TLC team were fantastic. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend TOTAL LIVING CONCEPTS for any job big or small.
A big MERCI to Kim and the TLC team!!
