Boy, did we ever need a new roof. We needed one for a few years. We had phoned some roofing companies, got a few recommendations, but still, we did nothing. Not until our neighbor contacted us. He said he had a company representative at his house that very moment. Should he suggest to the rep that he stop by to see us right away? We jumped at the chance to meet Joe Bader. We listened to his presentation and were more than impressed. “When can you start?” we asked. “How about in ten days?” was the reply. We couldn’t be happier. Joe was wonderful to do business with. He arrived equipped with samples of the company’s products as well as a printed copy of our roofline (good old Google maps) and promptly and professionally answered all our questions. Because we live near a ravine, we were especially concerned about fire. Joe reassured us that his Smart Home roof would not incinerate. In fact, we could expect a reduction in our house insurance! We were interested in installing solar panels too, given our south-west exposure, and Joe introduced us to someone who is in that business. Signing on the dotted line took no time at all. And the work crew? They were the best workers we have EVER had in our house or yard. Not only did they rigorously clean up the work site after each twelve-hour work day, they were very tidy and polite. Would we recommend Smart Home? You bet.
 
M & N
We were referred to Smart Home Building Systems and Joe Bader by good friends who used their services and were extremely pleased with the finished results. In our consultations with Joe with regards to our roof, we found Joe to be very knowledgeable about roofing products, including durability, longevity and warranties. Joe answered our myriad questions patiently and thoroughly. Once we made the decision to have Smart Home replace our roof Joe provided an accurate timeline for completion of the work. We had chosen to proceed with a metal Edco roof, which allowed the work to be done during the winter. The Smart Home crew were extremely well organized and efficient in applying the roofing product. The crew cleaned up daily, especially important for us to avoid our dogs stepping on metal shards or screws. The crew were punctual, polite and really knew their job. What was most impressive was the smooth organization and delegation of labor, which allowed a large intricate job to be completed in the most efficient manner. Upon completion of the job, Joe came to complete a final inspection with us to ensure we were satisfied. We are extremely satisfied! The roof looks great, the yards and driveway look pristine – the crew even raked the snow looking for any stray screws or metal bits. If you are looking for a professional, quality finished product I would recommend Smart Home Building Systems and Joe Bader. We are making plans to have Smart Home replace all of our windows and siding next year.

We presented Joe Bader and his Smart Home crew with a challenging project, an old, badly-insulated cedar shake roof that needed replacing five years ago. Joe visited us twice and outlined many options in a professional and constructive manner. He was selling quality and a clear and exciting vision for what our home could look like. We opted for an aged copper standing seam metal roof and the work began. Needless to say, stripping a roof of ancient cedar shakes, building up the roof to put in proper insulating foam and laying down metal is a big job, made more challenging by a winter cold snap. Throughout the process the work crews did a great job of keeping the site as clean as possible and working through frigid temperatures. At every step of the process we felt involved and the inevitable “surprises” were met with creativity and refreshing professionalism. Some adjustments in the quoted price were fully explained and negotiated in a manner that left both parties satisfied. Joe’s commitment to providing the best roof possible never wavered and he was attentive to our questions and concerns every step of the way. We could have done the job for less than half of the hefty price tag, but the roof that now crowns our home is so much more attractive and functional and worth every copper penny (pardon the pun). In short, you get what you pay for. Joe Bader sells quality and he delivers on all counts. We couldn’t be happier with the finished product and the positive relationship that allowed it to happen. Smart Home is exactly that, the smart choice for any home renovation.

I'm an experienced renovator and research scientist, working to transform a 50’s bungalow into a 21st century super-insulated little gem. I hired Joe and Andrew to help me with several projects over the last few years, including steel roofing, exterior cladding, eavestroughs, and soffits, and additional projects are forthcoming. I’ve been really fortunate to have found Smarthome. Firstly, I’m not an easy customer for Joe and Andrew, in that I have particular demands and requirements, as I’m a stickler for construction details and aim to utilize the latest building science and highest quality materials in my own work. I didn’t want to deal with just your average renovator. The goal here is to build for the next 50 years. It was a revelation to initially interact with Joe and later Andrew, who share this same passion for quality and best practice in construction methods and materials, and I’ve learned a lot from their experience and wisdom. Their interactions and communications are always professional and prompt, and as a smaller company it feels highly personalized, I’m always in the loop. Exterior renos inevitably encounter unexpected complications and delays, and it was in fact my own project delays requiring Smarthome to shuffle their project deck. No problem, they get it, we’re in this together. For the average homeowner just wanting to know if Smarthome will listen to you, provide the best possible advice, steer you clear of bad choices, give you options to meet your needs and budget, build it right the first time, and give you a fair market price, then have no hesitation. Awesome company.

This is our first experience with large renovations due to the hail storm last year. This company has been a pleasure to deal with. So far our roof has been replaced. The roofers used were amazing people who were friendly and knowledgeable; taking time to answer questions. Their work looks amazing and has left us feeling confident that the job has been done with the very best quality.

We were very pleased with the work that was done on our house. The communications between us and the contractors were excellent and there were no budgetary surprises. The quality of the work was outstanding. Everyone was friendly and accommodating to our schedules. Multiple neighbours stopped by to comment highly on the final renovations. All-in-all we can recommend Smart Home highly.

From start to finish, Joe and his team were fantastic to work with when dealing with the stress of such a large purchase. They were very communicative and professional. When I had to leave for leave for several weeks and wasn't home, they continued to send me photo updates and answer any questions I had promptly. Came back to a beautiful new roof and Joe personally took me up top to walk it over to see the finished product. Highly recommend contacting them for any home exterior needs!

I loved working with Joe and the entire SmartHome team for my metal roof. I am a very particular person and care significantly about the fine details of a job. Joe was very patient and accommodating with my preferences and put a level of care and detail into my home as if he owned it himself. I was thoroughly impressed with the initial planning process and was even more impressed with the actual execution of the job. The team was effective, efficient, and showed great attention to detail throughout the entire process. Well worth the investment of a metal roof and you can’t go wrong with Joe and the SmartHome team. I’ll never have to buy another metal roof again on this house because of the longevity of the product but if I ever need another roof on a future property, I’ll definitely be coming back to SmartHome! Well done and thank you for the incredible job!

We talked with Joe a number of months before the renovation but at that time we were focused on renovating the interior so we had it in mind of what we wanted to do but left it for a few months. We contacted Joe in August which was a number of months later and he asked if we were ready to do this and the interior was looking good but the exterior was shabby so I was more than ready to get going on it.We heard originally October but to my surprise they started in September. First was to take off the siding and stucco. Hands off to Chris who worked his butt off while battling health issues. Getting that stucco off was a real chore but he did it without making a mess of everything. He cleaned up as he went daily and we didn't have to live through construction garbage being left around. Eavestroughs were the second last thing and they did a fantastic job channeling water smartly away from the property. We had some water damage from our previous system and Joe's team replaced the damaged wood and put in better eavestroughs. The last part was the garage door and now the house looks brand new again. Five stars all around and if you are looking for someone who you can trust and sticks to his work then I would recommend Smart Home Building Systems any day.Photos are not in order for some reason but you get the idea.

Our experience with the Smart Homes team was second to none. If professionalism, accountability and efficiency are what you are looking for, look no further. Joe and his team are very personable and passionate about the services they have to offer. They present themselves with an unremarkable work ethic, in addition to quality workmanship with exceptional attention to detail over all. We are extremely happy with the finished product (siding, insulation, eavestroughs, facia and exterior doors) and would highly recommend Smart Home Building Systems Ltd. The compliments from friends and neighbors continue to be never ending.
