Review

What Our Customers Have to Say

I had a fantastic experience with Zeke, Campbell and the rest of the ZZ Contracting team, and would highly recommend them. They are the most professional contractors I have ever worked with. Always on time, extremely fast, super clean and very respectful of the homeowners property. Zeke and Campbell took the time to really understand what I was trying to achieve with my project, and helped develop a detailed plan that worked for my budget. They were very clear and proactive in communicating with me, and I always knew what to expect with them. The speed with which they worked was incredible - I have never seen contractors that can get so much done in such a short time, Their end product was outstanding, and showed the pride they put in their work. I will definitely be contacting Zeke if I require any contractor work in the future.

ZZ Contracting did an amazing job on our house.The crew was careful, hard working, attentive to the smallest details, professional and friendly. Zeke is very responsive and I was aware of costs and timelines throughout the project. I would hire them again.

ZZ Contracting redid my kitchen, painted my whole condo and installed hardwood floors and carpets throughout They did excellent work, which was completed in a timely and efficient fashion. Zeke Kaplan personally addressed any questions or concerns. I heartily recommend them and would certainly use them again.

From the initial walk through to their insightful suggestions, the quality of work and the timeliness in completing the projects, it was truly a pleasure to deal with Zeke and his wonderful team. In an industry where one often hears complaints and complications, it is refreshing to find a company that is honest and a pleasure to deal with from the start.

If trust is the cornerstone of a successful relationship with a contractor then ZZ achieved it in the highest order. With the significant number of renovations we have incurred over the years we would rank ZZ in terms of price, product, and process as the absolute best It is without hesitation that we recommended them to our family and friends.

We had an excellent experience with Zeke and his team from start to finish. He used skilled trades people who were all courteous and professional with both the skills and experience to complete the work. Zeke managed his team exceptionally well and ensured they all worked well together. All work was completed on time and done efficiently, often exceeding our expectations. Zeke was especially easy to collaborate with and flexible to adjust both the scope of the project and meeting tight timelines. His cost estimates were fairly priced. We could not have had a better experience or workable relationship and highly recommend ZZ Contracting.

Antonio Fernandez Ln.

Laneway Home

There is a secret in the back lane, hiding out behind the century-old Victorians on a downtown street. It boasts modern design, spacious-feeling rooms; framed views and landscape elements that provide privacy; and windows and skylights that bring light in at all times of day. All this and it is nestled, neatly, centrally, in a Toronto laneway.

In order to maximize space, a split-level design is utilized. That includes the living areas on the main level, two upstairs bedrooms, and a walk-out basement beneath the dining room. The wood siding was salvaged and restored from the previous building on-site, in order to bring warmth to the gray, seamed metal and reference the neighbourhood’s past.

The kitchen, sunk down a few steps to better define it from the rest of the living spaces. Built- in Douglas Fir cabinetry, and a custom Douglas Fir table.

The breakfast bar at the end of the room lets diners look out over the backyard, while the nearby freestanding cabinetry offers streamlined storage that doesn’t detract from the sight lines.

In an upstairs bedroom, a generous skylight from big foot windows and doors expands the sense of space and increases the natural light.

There is a half bath on the main level and this full one upstairs, which also has a skylight and generous ceiling height, thanks to the pitched roof. Douglas Fir cabinetry keeps consistent with the rest of the house.

Lipincott Addition (ZZ Contracting) The Lippincott Project was a full gut of a Victorian home in downtown Toronto. The foundation had glaring deficiencies that necessitated the full replacement of foundations walls and basement walkout. The basement now has an 8’ finished ceiling height with a generous walkout to the backyard. The main and second floors were completely transformed by the construction of a 2-story addition on the rear of the house. The addition included Douglas Fir windows and bi-fold doors from Loewen Windows & Doors with an architecturally finished cementitious stucco on the façade that changes color and texture throughout the day with the sunlight. Also clad on the exterior is custom Douglas Fir millwork that brings warmth and color to the façade. All skylights are from Velu and are solar powered operable units that close automatically when rain falls. From the inside, the space boasts Quarter-Cut White Oak flooring and cabinets finished with Rubio Monocoat. Both kitchen and master bedroom ceilings also include a finished oak ceiling paneling with flush dimmable LED lighting.

Dwell Article: A Compact Laneway House in Toronto Takes Back Underused Space  Following a new policy change that allows housing units in Toronto’s back lanes, LGA Architectural Partners builds a crisp, light-filled example. Thanks to a policy change in the summer of 2018, Toronto is encouraging residents to build small abodes along back lanes that were previously dominated by garages, making room for people rather than cars. These laneway houses are self-contained and typically sit on the same lot as a detached house, semi-detached house, or townhouse.
