From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, the entire process was smooth, professional, and exceeded our expectations. The team listened carefully to our ideas, offered smart suggestions that improved both function and style, and kept us updated every step of the way. They completely transformed our outdated, cramped bathroom into a bright, modern spa-like retreat. The new large-format tile looks stunning and is so easy to clean, the frameless glass shower feels luxurious, and the vanity with soft-close drawers and elegant lighting has made mornings so much more enjoyable. Every detail, perfect alignment of the tiles, shows real craftsmanship and attention to detail. The crew was respectful of our home, cleaned up thoroughly each day, and finished right on schedule. Communication was excellent, and any small questions were answered quickly and helpfully. We’re so happy with the result and keep getting compliments from friends and family. If you’re considering a bathroom remodel, we highly recommend Vanguard Contracting, their Team deliver beautiful work and an stress-free experience. Worth every penny!

I strongly recommend Vanguard. They have just finished giving us our dream bathroom with the little space we have. They are AMAZING! Professionals, perfectionnists, kind, calm, accommodating, reliable, always reacheable, clean and friendly crew. And their prices are great, absolutely affordable, with no surprises. We seriously couldn't have asked for better AND we are having our entire main level redone by them in a few weeks with peace of mind after seeing what they can do.

I had a railing installed by Vanguard Contracting and couldn’t be happier with the result. The workmanship was extremely meticulous, every detail was handled with care and precision. They were professional throughout the entire process, communicated clearly at every step, and were genuinely friendly and easy to work with. It’s rare to find a team that combines quality craftsmanship with great customer service like this. Highly recommend Vanguard Contracting to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality work!

I hired the Vanguard Company for the bathroom renovation. The experience was great. The crew was very professional, reliable and with excellent customer service. Because of this great experience, I rehired them for flooring renovations and staircase remodeling. They did excellent work and I am planning hired them in the future for my renovation projects. I would higly recommend this company for home renovations. .

I would never recommend this company to anyone. Beware of the comments with the 5 stars as they seem to be family/friends. We asked them to replace the hardwood floors and baseboards and the corners started lifting right away. When we asked them to come back they glued one of the edges and put a weight on it which after a couple of days popped right back up. When we asked them to come back again they stopped answering our messages and calls. They also added a $4000 surcharge on top of our agreed upon price at the end and harassed us until we gave it to them. Now we are left having to hire another company after paying these guys over $20k!
