"   We called Omar and V star renovations having had a horrible contractor called Costas Tsatsos (beware!!! Old fashioned uncooperative style ! Take the same money and WRECK our bathroom - the ceiling was leaking into the living room downstairs! You can sense the lack of Love in the work- he looks like a Jaded contractor - as a community member that suffered under this man- I warn, BEWARE!!! ) - V STAR renovations came in like HEROES! They were intelligent, polite, professional and SINCERE!!! They were all about the work and getting the job done! I get emotional thinking about how good they were to us after that trauma - they were CLEAN and polite - they were able and committed ! NOT ARROGANT. They knew their stuff and had their own van so they are a serious company- only professionals came into our home and fixed this bathroom and got it UP TO CODE!!! They never said anything about the bad work of the other guy. They just quietly and confidently cane and did what they came to do. THEY LISTENED! In a way that ancknowledged our distress and made us feel seen like we were in good hands- and they delivered!!! Such care ! They sealed off the ceiling for the leaking ceiling repair and saved my Christmas tree in the living room from getting dust! That was the level of CARE and detail - for dust management, that proves the level of skill these people had! They saved my Christmas tree from dust! My tree is in the pictures to wish everyone Merry Christmas - but look at how many ornaments is on that thing! If that ceiling repair was a reality-TV contractor challenge they would have WON!!! Not a speck of dust, yet they never touched the tree or interfered with it !!! Our home was protected with drop cloths and they cleaned up so well- I didn’t even have to clean up after they left!!! Do yourself a favour and HIRE THESE PEOPLE for ALL your needs! Don’t let people like Costas thrive- Costas COST US!!!! Save yourself the hassle and psychological and financial distress a bad decision can cause you. Beautiful human beings! - Good for family households! Emotionally Intelligent! The kind of people you WANT in your home God bless them forever!!!! this is the kind of company we want to see grow and thrive in the community- because they CARE about the WORK and the CUSTOMERS! - If I had to describe them in one word- I carefully choose this word, it would be…FOCUSED! but also FAIR and HUMBLE!

From start to finish, they were professional, efficient, and committed to delivering top-notch work. The team was incredibly attentive to my needs and took the time to listen to my ideas, offering valuable input while respecting my vision. They kept me informed throughout the entire process, and any concerns I had were addressed promptly and with great care. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations everything from the new kitchen layout to the bathroom upgrades looks fantastic. The attention to detail was impressive, and I could tell they took pride in their craft. Additionally, the project was completed on time and within budget, which is always a relief. The crew was respectful of my space, keeping the worksite clean and minimizing disruption to my daily life. I highly recommend Omar for any home renovation needs.

"   V star completed our bathroom renovation beautifully and quickly. We were very happy with the attention to detail from project start to finish. Very good advise and help designing and choosing options that turned our old dated tub shower bathroom into a modern walk in shower bathroom home showpiece. We are very happy with the high level of professionalism and quality of work.

"   Omar and his team are by far the best!! We have had V Star Renovation renovate a main bathroom in our home after a huge leak, install new carpet through the entire house, install multiple light fixtures, install a new laundry room sink, fix broken cabinets, install a new sink in the kitchen, and odd jobs here and there around the house. For the last 4 years we always relied on Omar for anything needing done around the house because we trust him. He’s honest and truly reliable, and works with us to get jobs done within our budget. We are SO happy to have found him and have him on speed dial at this point! Thank you Omar!!

CLR

VR

"   I sent an email to V Star Renovation as we needed several bathroom Reno’s done in our home in Thornhill. Omar replied and scheduled a time to see our property very quickly after my email request. He assessed and provided a very reasonable quote. He was reliable, on time and professional. We are extremely happy with the end result! I would both refer him to others and hire him again for additional work in other areas of our home.

"   We hired Omar at V Star Renovation to turn our bathroom into an attached bathroom. Omar visited our property within a few hours of my phone call, assessed and provided a very reasonable quote.

"   When I first moved in Whitby. My basement was pretty bad, previous landlord had a tenant living and he/she left it awful. I had to replace the whole washroom technically. I came across this gentleman and he was great with his work. Gave me an estimate where he beat other handyman’s quote. The work was very professional and outstanding. And far most i trusted him. Great work ethics. Great work! Highly recommended! Good luck

OK
