Solutions Tremblant were everything and more that I had hoped for in a contractor. They were fast getting back to me with their quote. The quote was all inclusive and no surprises. The work was done quickly, cleanly, and expertly! My deck, stairs and balcony are amazing. Bravo and thank you!!

This review continues my "welcome to the terrifying world of home owning" series. I received notice…read morefrom my notary (because my realtor was on vacation when all heck went down) that the bank had decided that I could not buy the house I wanted to buy with the water test as it was. I wasn't allowed to deal with the minor water issues there in my own time, they had to be dealt with in the 48hrs remaining for the purchase to go through, and so I needed to find a plumber. I called a few who were recommended but they all said they didn't have time, or were going to charge me $1500, or were outright rude on the phone. When I found the number for Roger Labonte I was at my wits end, but I got someone super helpful on the phone right away. I explained the situation, and I explained (what no other company was willing to listen to) that the water was already filtered and clean and just needed a UV filter added to an already perfectly good system. The person I spoke with said: "so you don't want to pay for anything you don't need, that makes sense, let me call our service person right now, see if they will fit you in, and make sure they know to do just what needs to be done, don't replace anything that's already in place in and functional working." I was a bit stunned by this reasonableness, and more stunned still when he called me back within minutes to tell me they would fit me in no problem. And even more stunned when it was all done and I got the bill. They could have taken advantage of my position and they didn't, and that's huge. Everyone I have spoken to at this office has been super friendly, super bilingual, you can tell by their voices their like each other and the work they do. These will be my plumbers of choice up North from now, I am super thankful to them for making a stressful process much smoother and kinder.

This chimney cleaner is quick, friendly, easygoing and affordable. He serviced our house for years…read morebefore we got it and was trusted by the elderly women who lived here alone with her life, enough that she recommended him to me when I bought the house. That's it, that's the review. Here's the Public Service Announcement: you must get your chimney cleaned every year! Do not slack on this or you may find yourselves with flames coming out of the top of your chimney, your partner on the roof shoveling it with snow as you call 911 from across the street as we did. We were very very lucky and everything was ok, and we upgraded a very old system following this incident and now keep the chimney ship shape. But just know: even a barely used cottage chimney can get coated in flammable residue in just one year. Our friend is a volunteer firefighter in the Laurentiens and tells us they get called out to fires almost every day caused by chimneys, and in almost every case there is massive damage to the home. Clean your pipes people and stay safe out there!!

After having been severely let down by our first customer service experience at Club Piscine Centre…read moreSt. Jerome, my husband and I ended up going to Groupe Maitre Piscinier to get a product that we were missing (thank you for that by the way, Club Piscine). Luckily, the two stores are not far from each other at all. The cashier greeted us immediately when we entered the front door. She directed us to the section of the store that we needed and she patiently advised us on the product we required and answered all our questions, never once walking away or dismissing a concern. We left with everything we needed, plus more. They offer free pool/spa water testing and you get a comprehensive report afterwards. We also appreciated that the cashier was willing to speak in English, although we spoke to her in French. Another customer came in who was clearly Anglophone and she immediately replied to him in English, which sort of surprised me for St. Jerome! Thank you Groupe Maitre Piscinier! You have gained a new regular customer. We will be back!

Ohhh dang you guys. This place was right in front of us the whole time!! Turns out the BMR in St…read moreJovite is the one with the fancy floor setups and lots of pillows and citronella candles for folks who come up to their cottages on the weekend (ok and tons of other stuff too, and super nice staff.) But THIS BMR, tucked off the highway at St Faustin just a couple minutes before St Jovite, with its signs advertising Tool Rental and Contractor's Entrance is the one for when you are very serious about your building projects. You are no longer messing around, you are buying siding ,tyvek and insulation by the metre like some sort of pro. It's possible you are actually a pro, the place is crawling with them. My boyfriend has officially spent hours (and what feels like millions of dollars) here since we ran into an unexpectedly major renovation at the lakehouse. I think he has a healthy crush on like 50% of the staff, and given how much help they've given us in figuring out what we're doing and what we need, and that prices here seem to be cheaper than elsewhere, and that for 30$ they deliver all the stuff that doesn't fit in the Subaru, I'm all for it. You can't quite see this place from the highway, and as you pull up it really looks like you're not in a place that's open to the public, but don't worry: it is, and it's awesome.

Really great home and hardware store. I usually go there to buy my paint. They sell the boomerang…read morebrand that is a recycled paint that has a really great covering power and good, but very limited pallet of colors. I buy my tools and my materials elsewhere so I can't vouch for the rests of the stock. But, it all looks ok. When I end up buying some extras that where not on the list. I usually find that it's a great price/quality ratio.
