Do you charge for an estimate?

No. Estimates and in-home drawings are free. We come out, measure, listen to what you want, and give you a written proposal that lays out the specifications, the scope and our obligations before you commit to anything.

Do I have to fill out a form to get in touch?

Never. Email inquiries@absolutehomecreations.com or call the number for your region and you reach the family that does the work. There is no contact form, no lead broker and no call centre in between.

Do you take a deposit before starting?

Our licensed budget programs require no deposit. Ask us about them when we come out — they carry very low interest rates and are completely open, so you can pay the balance off at any time without penalty.

Who arranges the building permits?

We do. Absolute Home Creations arranges and coordinates all building permits and all building inspections as part of the project. You don't deal with the city.

What warranties come with the work?

It depends on the project. Our lifetime fibreglass shingles carry 50-year registered manufacturer warranties with 10 years on workmanship, and Gutterglove Pro and Eavesafe gutter protection carry lifetime warranties. At project completion we walk you through every applicable warranty and exactly what it covers.

Are you insured?

Yes — fully insured on every project, every trade, every day. We are also a RenoMark accredited renovator, which requires a written contract, a minimum two-year warranty on workmanship, and full liability insurance.

How long has the company been in business?

Absolute Home Creations has been operating since 2000 and has been a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating since 2001, with over 35 years of experience in the trade behind it. Same family, same phone number, for over 25 years.

What areas do you serve?

London, Hamilton, Burlington, Kitchener and Waterloo, plus the surrounding communities — St. Thomas, Strathroy, Woodstock, Oakville, Stoney Creek, Cambridge and Guelph among them. Each region has its own local phone number.

Can you do a legal basement apartment?

Yes. We build basement apartments with separate entrances, code-compliant egress windows, proper fire separation and full bathrooms — whether it's for a family member or for rental income. Permits and inspections are handled by us.

My basement leaks. Can that be fixed properly?

Yes. Older foundations are taking on water more often as our seasons get wetter. Full foundation waterproofing, done to code with every step carried out properly, eliminates the problem and gives you back a dry, safe and healthy home — rather than managing the symptoms with a sump pump.

Do you work on mobile homes and homes in trailer parks?

Yes, and it's a growing part of our business across Ontario — rubber and peak roof systems, professional levelling, siding, windows, add-ons, porch enclosures and accessible bathrooms and kitchens. Be careful with door-to-door offers in these communities and check any contractor with the BBB first.

What makes Gutterglove Pro different from other gutter guards?

It's the only patented gutter guard rated #1 by Consumer Reports Canada and in North America, built from Type 316 stainless steel mesh on a hardened anodized aluminum frame. We have spent years removing foam inserts, Alu-Rex, reverse-curve helmets and box-store products that failed — Gutterglove is what we install instead. Absolute Home Creations is an exclusive Ontario dealer.
