"   had V Star Renovation work on my place, and I honestly had a great experience with them. Omar was the one who handled most of the work, and he was super easy to deal with from the start. He explained everything in a way that actually made sense, showed up when he said he would, and kept me updated the whole time. The work itself turned out really good. You can tell he cares about doing things properly, not just rushing to finish. He also cleaned up after the job, which I really appreciated. Overall, I’m really happy with how everything turned out. If you need any kind of renovation done, I’d definitely recommend Omar and V Star Renovation. They made the whole process way less stressful than I expected.

"   We had a basement leak that had ruined the basement floor. V Star was contacted, they came immediately and assessed the damage. The floor was replaced and the leak was fixed incredibly fast. This happened a couple days before Christmas and they had the work done before the holidays. The work was professional and the guys were very personable. I highly recommend. Thank you for getting this done for us on such short notice before the holidays.

"   Very satisfied with the service I recieved! My floors look phenomenal and Omar was very easy to do business with, he listened to what I wanted and got the job done!

"   We used v star renovation for my home in North York around May. It was a big project, transforming my basement into an apartment after a heavy flood, installing new tiles and cabinets in the main kitchen, and installing tiles and vanity in the main floor powder room. In addition, we got all the interior walls painted for a very reasonable price. I was surprised and appreciative that COVID-19 didn’t cause a delay as I had anticipated. I have postponed my review to provide an opportunity to test the quality of renovation and provide reasonable feedback. I would like to give Five Stars based on the following reasons and facts: The quality of the material used and the works performed is very good. During/after the renovation, I invited a couple of my friends who have some degree of construction knowledge to visit our place, they all gave positive comments. Communication/ coordination was smooth. As we aren’t very familiar with all the steps of our renovation, we depended on Omar to give us all the necessary updates. Omar was able to respond to our questions/concerns in a timely manner and was willing to find a solution for any misunderstanding. From my perspective, I believe the amount of work that was done for the renovation is far more than what we saw. Overall, we are very satisfied with their work and would highly recommend this contractor. I may follow up with some pictures.

The installation timeline depends on the flooring material and the size of the space. Most projects take 1-3 days for standard rooms, while larger areas or projects requiring subfloor repairs can take up to a week. Our team ensures an efficient and seamless installation process.

Since basements are prone to moisture and humidity, we recommend water-resistant options like luxury vinyl plank (LVP), tile, or engineered hardwood. These materials prevent warping and mold growth, ensuring long-lasting durability. Explore our basement flooring services for more details.

In some cases, yes! Vinyl, laminate, and engineered hardwood can often be installed over existing flooring if it's level and in good condition. However, for materials like tile and hardwood, we may need to remove the old flooring to ensure a proper foundation.

For areas with heavy foot traffic, we recommend:

  • Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) - Scratch-resistant, waterproof, and durable
  • Tile Flooring - Great for kitchens and bathrooms due to water resistance
  • Hardwood Flooring - Timeless but requires refinishing over time
  • Laminate Flooring - Budget-friendly and resistant to scratches

Yes! Refinishing your existing hardwood floors is more cost-effective and eco-friendly compared to replacing them. It removes scratches, dents, and stains, restoring the original beauty of your floors. Learn more about our wood floor refinishing services.

  • Tile Flooring - Highly durable and moisture-resistant
