"The work was to our expectation. The living room addition was done to our taste and fitted very well with the reast of the house. The egress window installation to the basement room gave a whole new life and vibrancy to the rooms downstairs. Our kitchen now looks great after the remodelling.Neil and all his team were very respectful and professional. Everything went to our expectations and I would highly reccommend him to anyone who needs some work to be done!"

"Though I had a very small project, Todd was willing to take it on. He was punctual, efficient, friendly and very professional. The price charged was well worth the quality of the work. I purchased the mail slot trim, so Todd charged only for his labor. I will certainly call Todd again in the future when I have another project that fits his skill set."

"I am thrilled with my Bathroom- they showed up when they said they would. They listened to my requests - went into the project knowing what the end goal would be. The bill was what they quoted. They cleaned up after themselves. Great customer service and outstanding workmanship."

Greenhouses and Nurseries questions, answered by experts

Eco-friendly materials include sustainably-sourced woods, recycled metals, low-VOC paints, and non-toxic sealants, which reduce environmental impact. Using these in repairs promotes sustainability and can improve indoor air quality and overall building health.

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.

Adding burnt charcoal to your garden beds and plant pots can yield several benefits, but there are risks involved, too. Charcoal, particularly biochar, can enhance soil structure, improve water drainage, and increase nutrient retention. When activated, charcoal provides key nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. However, burnt charcoal, especially from briquettes, can inadvertently alter soil's pH levels and become hazardous to plants. Overall, there are better and less risky soil amendments available, such as vermiculite, perlite, or wood chips.

Minor fixes like patching leaks or repainting are DIY-friendly, but structural repairs require professional expertise.

The quickest way you can protect plants and trees from frost is to cover them with garden blankets or frost cloths. Also, bringing potted plants or trees indoors is much simpler than trying to cover and protect them outdoors. Remember to anchor blankets with something such as sandbags, fabric pins, or rocks if the forecast calls for strong winds to keep them from blowing away and exposing your trees and plants.
