When I came to Canada in 1998, I came with very little. I needed to pay my rent, and I found a local contractor that was willing to employ me. I knew I wanted to learn the industry, and I knew I had to do so very quickly. I offered to work for next to nothing if he would teach me everything he knew. From day one, I saw that he was a contractor who took advantage of his clients, taking money up front and leaving the project before it was complete. I saw clients in tears sometimes, and I felt very, very bad about being a part of that - I did my best to complete the work when I could. I stayed with this contractor for only a month, and in that month, I learned enough to get my foot in the door.
I still remember the day when I got my first client, I was able to complete the job on time and leave the client happy because the entire job was in my control, I knew this was the work I wanted to do. What I lacked in experience, I made up for in passion, and the client was so pleased with the end result. I saw a need in the industry, and I knew I could be someone these homeowners relied on. That’s where AGM started, from a desire to help homeowners.
We have a passion to be the best, and that sentiment comes from the heart. It’s not about competition, it’s about really delivering what we promise and doing whatever it takes to complete the job, even if we have to do it again. At the end of the day, it comes down to delivering on promises, and we do not, cannot, take advantage of people; it’s not in our DNA as a company. If we make a promise, then it’s getting done, no matter what it takes. Cost is not an object when we have made a promise. If there are hidden costs, we eat them. When we make a mistake, we honor the original agreement, and the client does not suffer for our mistake. That is written in stone and unheard of in the construction industry. If the price goes up, no matter the reason, we will absorb the difference. We have the largest warranty in the industry, a five-year unlimited warranty.
We extremely passionate and proud of our success to be the best in the home renovation industry. We understand that the only way to continue to be the best, is to keep delivering and overdelivering on our promises and always deliver firs class renovations to all our clients. Quality is key, and we believe that our customers deserve nothing but the best.
