Founded in Frustration
Founded in 2004 by Tom Cordeiro, eRenovate.com was born out of a bad experience he had when he hired a replacement window installer out of the Yellow Pages™.
Like many other Canadian homeowners, Tom thought a skilled trades-person listed in the Yellow Pages™ would be both reputable and capable. Boy was he wrong! Not only did he overpay for the windows, but they were also poorly installed. Now he had a pretty serious draft and a contractor that would not return his calls and eventually had to hire another contractor to fix the problem. Sound familiar?
“How Not to Get Nailed” with Mike Holmes [view CBC video] was one of the most popular episodes of CBC Marketplace in 2007. It revealed that Tom’s bad experience is all too common and that the risk of getting “nailed” by disreputable contractors is very high. eRenovate.com is therefore, the smartest way for homeowners to reduce their risk and to avoid getting “nailed” in their next home improvement project.
The eRenovate Difference
There are numerous web sites that service the home improvement industry; however the vast majority focus on generating sales leads for contractors and ignore the needs of homeowners. eRenovate.com is unique because it the only company committed to educating homeowners on the challenges of renovating, before they start.
eRenovate.com is a proud member of the Canadian Home Builders Association and the National Association of Home Builders [USA].
eRenovate.com practices the highest standards for user privacy protection and data security and has been authenticated as an SSL Secured site by Comodo.
