We worked with Alair to transform the exterior of our house from dated 70s to modern farmhouse. Their work - from planning to execution - was exceptional. When the inevitable surprises arose, Matt handled everything professionally which took a lot of the stress out of the process (for us). We love the finished product and are so proud to call this home.
We purchased a home in Oakville last March and hired Alair Construction to assist with a substantial renovation which included a complete remodel of the principal bathroom and main level powder room, painting the entire house, redoing the hardwood flooring upstairs, ceiling scraping and pot light installation through many rooms of the house, and sanding/staining both the main level and basement staircases. We had the benefit of a long closing date (+120 days), which gave us lots of time to work with the Alair team to thoughtfully plan the reno. Our dealings with co-owners (Mark & Matt) was top-notch from start to finish. The day after we closed on the house, Mark/Matt had teams lined up to start the demolition and ceiling scraping. They had committed to getting all the messy and highly disruptive stuff done over the first several weeks, knowing that our family was going to be moving into the house the following month. We were thoroughly impressed with not only the quality of the work done over the course of the renovation, but also all the extra precautions Alair took while working in the house through the pandemic. The renovation was finished on the agreed timeline and within the planned budget. Both Mark and Matt were very responsive to any questions/concerns we had along with the way, and were always 100% transparent with any issues that arose during the renovation.
We absolutely loved working with Alair's designer, Tania Faria. Tania helped us come up with the remodel plan for both bathrooms, and assisted us in selecting paint colours for the rest of the house. While neither me or my wife have a good eye for design, Tania was excellent at getting a sense of what we liked and then coming up with a shortlist of recommendations for us to pick from. Also can't say enough about Alair's lead carpenter (who is also named Matt). He was absolutely fantastic, going above and beyond on not only the scope of the project that we agreed to, but also assisting with a lot of other projects that required a skilled carpenter.
We would 100% recommend Alair Construction, and will be using them again in the foreseeable future to help us with a second planned renovation.
We heard about Alair Homes from a neighbour who had their exterior renovated by them last year. We did our due diligence and talked to several independent contractors and companies to receive quotes for our own renovation. After speaking with Mark, we knew immediately that we wouldn’t have to worry about the quality of the work and that our home was in great hands. I have nothing but glowing remarks for these guys - not only was the job done right…. It was effortless on our end. Alair and their trades are meticulous, upfront and just easy to get along with. They come prepared to work and truly do everything to get it right. Don’t hesitate to call Alair for your next job!
We are always proud to assist Alair Homes, Oakville with their plumbing needs. Mark, Matt and team make it easy for our crew as the job sites are always safe and prepped for work.
When looking to renovate our late 1980s home we were a bit nervous of finding the right person for the job. Mark and Matt Chuba with Alair Homes in Oakville was highly recommended to us by our interior designer who had worked with them on numerous projects. On that recommendation we met with Mark and Matt and were immediately impressed with their professionalism, the Alair model, and their ability to set us at ease and answer our millions of questions.
It was an easy decision to hire Alair to do a main floor renovation while we lived in the house. Every person that came into the house from demolition to completed project was extremely professional and personable. Our project came in on time and on budget which impressed us very much.
When we decided a year later to do the upstairs, including our main staircase there was no hesitation to call on Mark Chuba again. We experienced the same confidence as our first experience with Mark and the Alair team.
I won't lie and say we never had issues as every project is going to have issues. However, the amount of planning that went into each project prior to even starting helped tremendously to trouble shooting any issues ahead of time. When there was an unforeseen issue that cropped up Mark and Matt were right on it and didn't rest until things were set right and made sure that WE were satisfied with the solution.
Skip ahead 1.5 years later and we had to call on Mark again as there was an issue with our dishwasher panel. He responded in his usual cheerful and professional way and assured us that all cost would be covered by their 2 year guarantee.
It has been a pleasure dealing with Mark Chuba and the Alair team. We have always found Mark to be approachable, professional, and extremely knowledgeable.
I can’t say enough about Alair Homes Oakville. The team was reassuring from starting quote to end billing and all the work in between.
The Chuba Bros and Keiran, our Project Manager, were extremely knowledgeable, patient, solutions-oriented and very transparent. They walked us through pros/cons of layout, materials, upgrade costs, etc.at the level of detail we required. And there were no budget surprises!
Then there’s the work. I have before/afters pics that I’d be happy to share. They transformed our basement into a beautiful legal apartment for my in-laws. They are so happy with their new space. A quality and thoughtful build.
I know this review might sound too good to be true. What can I say. When your dog looks forward to the crew arriving in the morning, you know you’re in good hands.
Another successfully renovation by Alair Homes Oakville, the Chuba boys, thanks guys! Full renovation upstairs this time, complete new paint job, revamp of insulation (where needed), new carpet throughout, new light fixtures, new ceiling fan, screwing down that squeaky floor and, of course, that brand new wooden staircase, looks great! Thanks again!
I had the opportunity to work with Alair on our home renovation and have zero regrets with the workmanship. Everything projected went as planned and will Continue to use their services on future renovations! Definetly recommend to anyone in need of a trust worthy contractor!
As an electrical subcontractor (PTD Electrical), I have worked with Alair Homes since the company first started. I also worked with the Chubas on other projects before they started Alair Homes. I really like the company's communication and ability to coordinate jobs and tasks that are required. Their quality of work is exceptional and I am always proud to be part of their team. They are friendly and easy to work with and I recommend them to friends and family without hesitation.
We selected Alair Homes to undergo a full home renovation and were very pleased with Mark and his team and the end result. They were informative, knowledgeable, prompt and always very tidy as we lived through much of the renovation. Mark also assisted in design, material sourcing and selection. The entire team accommodated and respected our living needs during the renovation. The entire project was managed over a 3 month period and all trades were well coordinated ensuring the project completed as expected. The only delay was the last few days when Covid19 lockdown was in force however as soon as they were allowed Mark's team was in to complete the few remaining items. Their follow up and responsiveness has been very good to any post renovation concerns. We would highly recommend Alair homes and Mark for any type or size renovation project.
Mark and the Alair Oakville team completed the outfit of our fitness studio, which started as a bare bones retail space. Working with them was great, and nothing we've experienced previously in the world of contractors - very quick to respond, transparent with the job costing process, and the work ended up being done on time which was super important to us from the onset. The space looks awesome now - We would highly recommend this team for commercial build-out projects.
