We were very pleased with the work done by Elias. There was a small area needing to be checked - an easy fix. Then we discovered a new area of immediate need & Greg looked after that. We sold our condo quickly & know that the fresh painting sure helped. We had more painting done, by Elias and another fellow, before the new owner took possession. Thank you Greg & guys. The new owner will be happy that there are so many freshly painted walls!

He enhanced the value of my rental property immensely by doing all the things that needed doing. He painted 3 decks, built and replaced 2 backyard gates, painted house stucco and garage siding, found a door for my garage door, widened the frame and installed it, painted and stained backyard fences, repaired and painted a concrete step, repaired an outside chimney with mesh and concrete, painted a wrought iron railing and repaired and solidified fences...as well as some interior work...all within 2 weeks. He takes pride in his work and goes beyond what is expected. He is congenial, fair and reasonable.

He was hired to to paint a hallway, living-room and vaulted ceilings, and paint he did. He cut in two coats and only rolled the walls once. Very evident because if he had painted twice how in the world would he miss the same spots twice. He left navy blue paint on my hardwood, risers and railings. Slapped paint on the baseboards and hit the walls while doing it. He was ignorant and condescending to myself, daughter and son in law. There are pictures on Google Maps and Facebook to back up what I am posting here.

After repeated attempts to get NW Furnace to go back and finish a job (which we were assured…read morenumerous times they would) and learning that in fact my tenants have not been contacted, I think it's safe to say that there are no plans to do this and I will now be posting reviews. What was supposed to be a straightforward job cleaning out dryer ducting turned out to be a several hour affair that I was contacted for three hours into the job. What was going to be up to a $200 bill turned into a $600 bill, and it turns out the issue was that the hose for the dryer was kinked, which should have been what was checked for first. We were not happy with this and paid $300 for the job, which I wish I hadn't even done when I now have to find someone else to finish it, as NW Furnace failed to check their work after replacing the hose and the bi-fold doors do not shut properly, are damaging the units as a result and have caused great inconvenience to my tenants. I trusted you from 1000 km away above other companies, and that was unfortunately a mistake. Instead of wasting everyone's time and delaying this for months, it would have been appreciated if you were honest and advised that you weren't going to go back and do something that would take you probably ten minutes. You live in the neighboring community, so it's not as though you'd be going far out of your way. While I would have hired you for yearly cleanings and AC service, I will now not be using your services ever again. I hope it was worth losing that business over. I will be posting reviews widely. You were given a chance to make things right and you decided not to.

I am 73 year old handicapped widow. My furnace stopped working when it was -20C outside the day…read morebefore a man was found dead in his furnace room in NE Calgary. I couldn't get any advertised 24/7 emergency repair outfits to answer their phone. It was 1AM and the fire department dismissed my vulnerability telling me to call a plumber when no emergency plumbers were answering their phones. When I finally got a plumber who had worked for me before he came out to try to convince me that I needed a new furnace. He said he would come by in a day or two to fix the limit switch that needed replacing. Left alone in the house without a working furnace, I thought I better get a second opinion. Bowness Plumbing and Heating was recommended as an independent old school company that did good work st reasonable prices. I called Mitch Hurd around 3:30 AM and was surprised he answered the phone himself. I asked him to come to diagnose the problem so that I could submit a request for financial assistance to fix the furnace from Alberta government Senior's Assistance program. What I was really after was a second opinion on the face of the cost of a new furnace. My furnace was mid efficiency only about ten years old. He agreed to come to provide a diagnosis for $350. I felt that would be money well spent in the face of the costs of s new furnace. He came within 40 minutes. I was on the other side of the furnace anxiously telling him to hurry up to not go over the half an hour for $350. He was a pleasant person to chat with. When he was finished I gladly paid $350 in view of the costs of a whole furnace replacement. You probably won't believe what happened next. Mitch Hurd is a man you just can't help but love. I know I do. As he was going out the door he said, "Ella. I already fixed it. I was here anyway. Your furnace is not a dud. A limit switch replacement is common. Don't worry about it now. Your furnace is fixed". VERY, VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I will never use another plumber in the years I have left in this life. Calgary, we are very lucky to have him. His company doesn't show up at the top of online searches. Just try to remember Bowness Plumbing and Heating.
