Anju Philip
Aram did such a wonderful job with our deck renovation last month. We have also worked with Aram on other projects, and we really value his recommendations and the effort he puts into every task, big or small. Aram also always ensures that we have timely updates with the progress of any project. He is kind, very professional and has such a great work ethic. We have learned so much from him this past year and it's been a pleasure getting to know him. Please don't hesitate to call Aram for your next project!

Aram did some work on our home recently. He showed up on time and ready to go. He got the scope of the job immediately; you’re in safe hands with him. He is an excellent communicator, extremely organized, hardworking and has incredible attention to detail, to the point of artistry. The job was done above and beyond expectation and within the timeframe agreed upon. As an added bonus, he’s a really nice guy to have around! I highly recommend this very skilled and talented contractor.
Pearl & Paul Ho-Tai
Aram renovated our deck in a previous house several years ago, and we were so impressed with the workmanship that we hired him again when we moved to our current home last year. Among our many tasks, he installed a new deck, new front and back steps, and a full basement renovation with interior waterproofing which, in our century old home with its antiquated plumbing, electrical, and venting, meant a phenomenal amount of stressful work. Aram did a fabulous job and we are very happy with all of the renovations. He is a meticulous person who does quality work that always seem to exceed our expectations. He is extremely well organized, fastidious and methodical in his tasks. We also appreciate his ability to work within our budget and for his straightforward and practical advice in all renovation matters. Lastly, Aram is trustworthy and honest which, in our opinion, is of utmost importance.

Aram is always happy to help with jobs big or small. He’s helped me with everything from installing trim to a full bathroom reno. His workmanship is top notch but he’s also a pleasure to have in your home - on time, tidy, lets you know what to expect each day. I highly recommend giving Aram a call for your next project!
Before you hire a renovation contractor in Ontario
No. Renovation contractors are not licensed in Ontario - but the sub-trades they hire may be, and the permits are the real accountability mechanism.
Written contract with a defined scope
Should include a fixed price or a clearly capped cost-plus arrangement, a payment schedule tied to milestones, a start and substantial completion date, a change order process, and what happens if either party walks away.
General liability insurance and WSIB clearance
Two million minimum. Confirm the policy covers the type and value of your project - some policies exclude structural work.
Building permit, pulled by the contractor
Insist the contractor pulls it in their name, not yours. A permit in your name makes you the constructor and shifts liability onto you. This is a genuinely important detail that many homeowners agree to without realising.
Verify with: Your municipal building department.
Licensed sub-trades for regulated work
Your renovator need not be licensed, but the electrician and plumber must be. Ask who they are and verify them independently.
Questions worth asking
- Will you pull the building permit in your company name?
- Can I see the written scope, and does it list specific products and models rather than allowances?
- What is the payment schedule, and is it tied to milestones rather than dates?
- How are change orders priced and approved - in writing, before the work happens?
- Who are your electrician and plumber, and can I verify their licences?
