Sandra Girasoli's Testimonial

"In a time when energy costs are rising through the roof, I thought it would be smart to find out more about energy efficient renovations. I had no clue where to find out more but was lucky enough to learn about eRenovate.com from one of my friends. The site is great! It has thousands of articles to help homeowners like me learn about renovating plus this cool free service that let me submit my question about an energy audit to an eRenovate Expert. Within a day I had a great answer, including 3 links to more information on energy audits, government rebate programs and comparisons of energy efficient furnaces. eRenovate made it so simple and convenient. When I am ready to renovate my home, I know I will get all the help I need at eRenovate.com."

Tamsin Dollin's Testimonial

"Work keeps me extremely busy these days, so I don't have the time to contact and screen contractors one at a time. eRenovate.com made it simple and convenient to post my project and quickly receive multiple quotations from qualified contractors. eRenovate.com is a great timesaver for Canadian homeowners!"

Dao Le's Testimonial

"We had two projects for our new townhouse - landscaping and installing pot lights plus decor switches. We received lots of quotations using eRenovate for the landscaping, but we opted to go with a contractor from another source. The work they did was good, but it did not meet all of our expectations. In hindsight, we should have gone with the one we found in eRenovate. When it came to the electrical project we used eRenovate and found a great electrician. He gave us exactly what we wanted, on time and on budget!”

Tanya Escobar's Testimonial

"There are many good contractors, but we found a great one through eRenovate.com! Mark spent 3 hours consulting us on our basement conversion and did an amazing job. Now, 20 of our friends and family know about eRenovate.com and Mark Valois."

Home Shows can be overwhelming with row after row after row of jam packed booths of all sorts. If you’re attending to browse and stroll, this may not be too much of a problem, but if you’re going to the National Home Show with a specific project or projects in mind, wouldn’t a little direction help the headache? Enter the solution that is the National Home Show’s Concierge program powered by casaGURU!

Through the Concierge, casaGURU is revolutionizing your Home Show experience. It results in a single physical page that acts like a golden ticket in terms of saving time and money by helping you navigate yourself to relevant booths and view deals quickly.

Go to one of the 60 plus available kiosks and begin an easy process that takes under 5 min (but potentially saves you hours). You will be prompted to answer a series of questions regarding your upcoming home project(s). After completing the short survey, a personalized guide will be generated. This will include the location of booths that specifically suit your needs as well as savings that pertain to your project.
