Hi Kathy,

I agree with you on the very poor customer service at Healthiest Home. The few times we’ve gone in there, I never get the sence that they have really figured out their business model. The person that was there was very uninformed.

I tried to get a new floor at Healthiest Home last year. After the guy cancelled or didn’t show up for an appointment for the FOURTH time (and didn’t call back), I gave up on them. Anyone who treats their customers that way will not get my business!!

You can try Healthiest Home Building Supplies (their info is listed in the comment above).

There’s also the Habitat for Humanity Re-store:

Cohen and Cohen sell high end recycled building supplies:

That’s all the leads I have. Hope that helps

Hey there,

I am about to start a huge renovation project and the only decent info I can find on local recycled building materials is your site. Do you know of any resource pages for building green in Ottawa. I have found resource pages but they are all American.

Cheers!

Marmoleum is WAY more than eco-friendly, it’s been through a life cycle assessment and is certified as Sustainable via SMaRT (Sustainable Material Rating Technology) and then audited by Ernst and Young. All of which means they can PROVE that it doesn’t pollute the earth, water, air or sky making it a good investment for a home or a stock portfolio.

To me, it’s the poster product example of what products could be if only we ask for it.
