Monarch Kitchen & Bath Centre -- Your Baeumler Approved Contractor
Over a year ago on this blog, we announced Monarch Kitchen & Bath Centre were among a
limited number of home improvement specialists in the Greater Toronto Area to be Baeumler Approved. Monarch’s team continues to be proud of this designation and works diligently to ensure we live up to the Baeumler Approved level of excellence.
Baeumler Approved is the brainchild of Bryan Baeumler, host of HGTV's "Disaster DIY" and "House of Bryan." Baeumler Approved screens home renovation companies to ensure that their references check out and they have all the required insurance and licenses necessary to run their business. Not only does Baeumler Approved check with previous customers, but they also check with the tradespeople and companies they employ on a regular basis to ensure a company who they deem "Baeumler Approved" has a solid reputation.
In an article in the Bay Observer, Bryan writes:

In an article in the Bay Observer, Bryan writes:
“We all work hard for our money. As a homeowner, deciding to renovate or repair your home it is very important to be wise before making a decision as to which contractor or tradesperson to hire. I have always encouraged people to dig below the surface in order to ensure they are making the right choice. A few hours spent online or on the phone can save you days and weeks of future frustration, not to mention the costs associated with redoing work that has been completed improperly, or not at all. A good contractor has liability insurance, conforms to all municipal and provincial guidelines and has active WSIB coverage for their workers. You can also learn a great deal by looking into a company’s work history and reputation online and through other businesses.
This is the reason that I have established the Baeumler Approved network of quality contractors. We have actively sought out the best builders and trades from across Ontario and vetted our members for insurance, WSIB coverage, quality of work, and reputation to ensure that we are providing homeowners with quality workmanship that comes with honest service. Our members must adhere to a strict code of conduct and we encourage feedback from homeowners about the work that has been completed."
I know that no one is perfect and even the best contractors will occasionally encounter issues, but quality contractors communicate openly and honestly with homeowners and ensure that the job is completed on-time and to a professional standard.”Trust Monarch Kitchen & Bath Centre with your kitchen and bath design and renovation needs.

Be Patient, Flexible and Prioritize When Renovating, says Bryan Baeulmer
In the article below, reprinted with permission from Baeumler Approved, Bryan Baeumler discusses the importance of prioritizing during the renovation process. His secret to sticking to your budget -- and renovation success -- is keeping your long-term goals in mind.
"As a Baeumler approved contractor, we take great pride in helping our clients develop a realistic budget for their kitchen and bath renovations," says Monarch designer Janet Dawson.
"When working with a client on a large renovation, the first thing we focus on is a comprehensive budget that identifies potential 'hidden problems' that may impact the overall cost of the job," explains Janet. "From conception to completion, our goal is to anticipate areas that may be more challenging to renovate and ensure there are no surprises."

Monarch Kitchen & Bath Centre is Baeumler Approved!

Monarch Kitchen & Bath Centre is pleased to announce we are now among a limited number of home improvement specialists in the Greater Toronto Area who have been Baeumler Approved.
The brainchild of Bryan Baeumler, host of HGTV's "Disaster DIY" and "House of Bryan," Baeumler Approved pre-screens home renovation companies to ensure that their references check out and they have all the required insurance and licenses necessary to run their business. Not only does Baeumler Approved check with previous customers, but they also check with the tradespeople and companies they employ on a regular basis to ensure a company who they deem "Baeumler Approved" has a solid reputation.
From Monarch designer Marion Cuddie:
"We are very pleased to add ‘Baeumler Approved Contractor’ to our accreditations. This has required references, application and proof of liability coverages and good work practices. Anyone considering a kitchen or bath renovation who has watched the variety of TV shows covering the subject will know that the process can seem a little overwhelming, especially when entrusting your dreams and a substantial amount of money to the contractor. We hope this is one more way that we can assure our clients we strive to achieve the best possible results for them, while preserving the safety and security of their homes."
