Tremblay renovated our kitchen. It was a very positive experience from beginning to end. The staff from the designer, project manager, to contractors were all knowledgeable, and readily available to assist, answer questions. The design of the kitchen was thoughtfully done. It is both beautiful and functional. They communicated what to expect when the project began, when various workers would be in, and checked that work was completed to our satisfaction. Contractors cleaned up the job site daily, and did quality work. They run a reliable, honest, quality renovation company. We will definitely work with them again.

We are absolutely delighted with our new ensuite bathroom designed and installed by Tremblay Renovation! Our incredibly talented designer Jansu was able to create a vision for exactly what we wanted and the entire Tremblay team was such a joy to work with - so professional, friendly and responsive. We highly recommend Tremblay Renovation and will be returning to them for any future renovations to our home! Carole & Claude

What a great experience having Tremblay Renovations do a much needed makeover of our master bathroom. Jansu did a great job giving us lots of choices and listening to our needs during the design phase and Kale did an incredible job with the renovation. He was meticulous, hard-working and always cleaning up causing minimal disruption to our household during the work. The final results are amazing. Thank you! Here are some before and after pics, the room is unrecognizable.

I waited two years before leaving this review as I wanted to see how our renovations held up over time. Happily, I only have positive things to say about Tremblay Renovations. The work done included tearing down and rebuilding a brand new master ensuite (walls, ceiling, plumbing, electric, etc.), major updates to the kitchen (cupboard doors, counters, backsplash, floor, electric), front hall flooring, new powder room and replacing all baseboards in common living areas. The process was as painless as possible. Tremblay did not start the work until all materials had been received (no small feat during COVID times). During the construction phase, we were consulted on an ongoing basis and were able to provide input on major decisions (ie. placement of pot lights, placement of kitchen island, etc.) The work took the amount of time estimated and there was no dead time as workers were on the premises everyday. Jeff, Kale and Mike were great, as was the designer, Amanda. Since the renovations two years ago, a couple of minor issues have come up. Jeff has been outstanding in following up with me on these items. Overall, we are extremely pleased with the quality of the work. I should also mention that Tremblay’s cost estimate was reasonable (compared to other companies that we approached who made no effort to find cost savings for us) and the final cost was on budget. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tremblay renovations.

Frequently Asked Questions

The requirement for permits may vary depending on the nature and extent of the renovation. Our team can secure the permits you require, guiding you through the permit process as needed and ensuring that all necessary approvals are obtained to meet local building codes and regulations.

Can I still live in my home during the renovation process?

This is largely up to your discretion. We strive to minimize disruptions to your daily life during the renovation process. Our team plans the project carefully, ensuring that you can continue living in your home comfortably while the work is underway if you prefer. However, there may be a significant period when you are unable to use your kitchen or bathroom.
