Alba Home Services was contracted to replace our home’s aluminum siding, soffit, fascia, gutters, five windows and the rear patio door. Major structural reconstruction of the chimney surround was... also required due to extensive water damage. Alba also applied a layer of insulation sheathing board under the new vinyl siding. Workmanship by Patrick, Frank and the other members of their team was first-rate as was their customer-oriented approach to getting the project done. The professionalism and integrity that Dan brought to his dealings with us was of the first order. The work was completed on schedule and within budget, and we would not hesitate to engage Alba for future renovations.read more

We have hired Alba for many projects over the years. When hiring Alba you speak directly with the owner of the company who responds promptly to any emails or phone calls, which is hard to find... these days.. that is why we stick with them. We have recommended Alba to many neighbours who have hired them and have the same feedback on workmanship and the owners commitment to his clients. Highly recommend them.read more

I asked Dan to replace our home’s aging aluminum siding with vinyl siding. Part of the job included the addition of 1.5 inch rigid polyisocyanurate insulation sheathing board. This meant the... strapping and vinyl siding would extend further out, but Patrick was able to install window capping which looks great. The material was chosen with care, but more importantly the installation was very professionally done by Patrick and Frank. For example the seams are hardly visible. Dan was frequently on site and patiently answered my many questions. I asked to have the garage door frame capped as well. They took the extra time to complete this unscheduled task. This team was very friendly and skillful. I would highly recommend Alba Home Services. I have already consulted with Dan about our next renovation.read more

They did some work on my siding in August 2018. It popped out in 2019 :(. They sent their troupes to the rescue to fix it free of charge and we could have a nice chat about other issues I might have... with my sidings =D. All and all they are pros and not intimidating. I enjoy working with these guys.read more
