Red flags on quotes
Verbal-only pricing, deposits above 20%, cash-only discounts, and unwillingness to itemise materials by brand are the top four. Any one is a pass.
What a defensible quote looks like
Written scope with photos, itemised labour + materials, 30-day validity, WSIB and liability certificate attached, and named workmanship warranty (5 years is the current bar for bird guard install).
Vetting a Vaughan contractor
Three checks that filter 90% of problems: (1) live WSIB clearance certificate, (2) named directors matching corporate filings, (3) two Vaughan references from the last 12 months you can call — not read.

Yes. Condo boards in Vaughan typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
