One gigantic old Kanata silver maple had split and was starting to decay in the cleft, making it a…read morefall hazard. Manotick Tree folks came out, with crane, workers suspended from fixed branches, and totally removed the tree in one day. They left the area spotless after, and were very careful about protecting a very close fence and other property areas. They also opened the canopy on another huge maple nearby, and at our request, took great care not to tred on small spring flowers that were starting to grow underneath. They set cones and we found no damage. We're very pleased with their work.

Unfortunately, we have had to remove 2 trees from our property over the years (the roots of one of…read morethem was eating into our foundation and the other tree was growing dangerously close to power lines). As much as it broke my heart to have to get the trees cut down, safety always trumps any crunchy granola sentiments. We used Manotick Tree Movers both times (several years apart) and they were great. Their phone staff are friendly and courteous. The guys who came to cut down the trees were punctual, efficient and polite. They cleaned up the area really well and were very professional. I got quotes from several different places, and Manotick Tree Movers always had the lowest price. Good service, low price, I'm happy. I certainly recommend this company for tree removal services.

I've been in to buy some caulk and screws, and it's a perfectly fine establishment - nothing…read morespecial, but clean and competent. The staff were polite and helpful, and it's the only place around for miles. So when I saw some butt-hurt clown had signed up to write his first and only yelp review slagging the shop with an absurd story, I decided to balance things off with a 5 star rating (a more realistic rating is 3 to 3.5). I'm guessing that reviewer wanted to pick through the stacks and got pissed off when he wasn't allowed. No owner of a store would refuse to pick out a single good and straight piece of lumber for a customer purchasing twenty pieces.

Recently discovered this store and it is so cool. It's a kitchen supply store that has things for…read moreyour home, but also restaurant sized things (they had a huge wok that I could sit in, and a salad spinner the size of a window air conditioning unit). They also have chefs' uniforms and hats. Good if you're a real chef or if you want to dress up like a chef for Halloween, or for any other reason, lol. They had lots of Japanese Bento boxes, and some of those metal containers that Indian restaurants use to serve Thali. Lots of bamboo steamers too. They had beautiful lacquer boxes shaped like fish and boats that are used to serve sushi as well. The place is bright, clean, and neatly organized. I'm pretty sure it's a family run business because the couple (probably the owners) had their baby in a Jolly Jumper-like device behind the cash register (the baby was super cute by the way). Service was friendly. If you're looking for some kitchenware, give this place a try. Some of the more exotic and unusual things are expensive, but regular items are very reasonably priced. The store is in a strip mall, so there's lots of free parking. It's in the same strip mall as the newly opened Giant Tiger.

This is a review of WKS's outstanding customer service. I am doing so because so few companies show…read morethis kind of service and integrity. To keep it brief: * I saw an item on their website for which suppliers in US were out of stock * I placed order & PayPal converted the US dollars to Canadian currency * I get email from WKS that the item is actually out of stock...refund is issued * I get email from PayPal saying a fee of $8 was being assessed by them * WKS's website didn't say "out of stock", so WKS also refunded me the fee So, even though WKS didn't have to, they wanted to make it right by reimbursing me, a fist time customer, for the PayPal fee (which should have technically been absorbed by PayPal for an online sale that never actually took place). I will gladly buy something from this fine company in the future! Don P. Nov '22 Texas
