2.Bateman Jewellers

Bateman Jewellers are  Trusted Saskatoons Trusted Jewellers , and did you know that they are The oldest independent jewellery store in Saskatoon?

Bateman Jewellers isn't just a business; they are a 65 year family tradition. In 1945 World War ll was ending and the public embraced life and family with renewed vigor. George Bateman returned from the war where he served as an instrument technician. With jobs and products being scarce, George Bateman, the true entrepreneur that he was, opened G.W. Bateman Jewellers in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. He set the tone for customer service excellence and continuous improvement. For 47 years they grew a Batemans loyal family of clients with their sincere service, quality of products and ability to change with the times. In 1992, the Batemans daughter Marilyn and son-in-law Ken Lorman bought Bateman Jewellers from George and Milly. They operated it under the same loving standards until a car accident forced Marilyn to retire in 2005. Long-time Bateman employee, gemologist and watch technician Cam Kripki and gemologist, gemstone dealer and friend John Scarfe, teamed up to purchase Bateman Jewellers and with family and long-time friends, continue the Bateman tradition of offering:

Superior jewellery, watches and accessories in a relaxed and respectful atmosphere. They always offer personal, individualized service, expertise and information sharing. Check out their website here for a full list of their products and services ...and have a look at their specials here for a bargain!

As well as implementing industry best practices Batemans continually upgrade their skills and knowledge. All employees take the Jewellery Education Training System (JETS) program to enhance their expertise and skills and they continue to evolve as a progressive and forward-looking provider of quality jewellery products, accessories and giftware that will meet their clients changing needs. Something you may not know is that at Batemans you can create your own individual piece of jewellery. Whether it is a family emblem, your childs artwork, a company logo or something to showcase your artistic ability, their 3D jewellery design software and milling machine allows them to recreate your design and produce a one-of-a-kind priceless possession! Batemans strongly believe in giving back to the community, and proudly support such things as Care and Share, United Way, local teams and organizations, and as business grows their community support list grows.

It is obvious that the relationship with their clients is very important to them, and Trusted is sure you have heard Cam say in his well known radio ads "  Your jewellery is a lifetime investment; Buy it from a lifetime friend. " ..Trusted can attest to the fact that they really DO mean it, and we are proud to have them on board as our Trusted Jeweller!

 

3. Kreepy Kritterz

Kreepy Kritterz  are Saskatoons #1 Pest Control Professionals, and they are Saskatoons ONLY Trusted Pest Control companies.

They specialize in dealing with the kreepy crawlies so you and I don't have to! If the thought of bed bugs or rodents makes you squeemish then you should note down the name David Wilson! He is the sole owner/operator of Kreepy Kritterz Pest Control and he started the company in January of 2009. He is licensed and certified by the Government of Saskatchewan, and after being involved in the Pest Control industry for some time before he decided to venture out on his own. He believed that operating his own business has allowed him to provide an outstanding quality of service, satisfaction, and peace of mind to his clients health and safety whether it is in your home or small business. Being locally owned and operated, the independence brings a very unique and personal quality of customer service, respect, trust and confidentiality.He obtained licenses in pest programs through Siast, and will continue to learn and grow along with all the latest techniques and technology in the industry .

 

Trusted also appeared in this weekends Sunday Sun, there was an interview with the founder Sara Wheelwright as she spoke about how Trusted came about and what is involved in becoming a Trusted business. We would like to thank Tom for a great article ..however there were a few minor mistakes that we would like to clarify...Trusted or Trusted businesses do not contribute toward the Workers Compensation Board...Trusted does however check to see if companies have workers compensation INSURANCE ( this is to safeguard clients....and is there to make sure if an employee of a firm who is doing work for you on your property sustains an injury..that YOU the client isn't liable) , also we check to see if a business has a history/record of bankrupcy..if they do we do not allow them on the site.   Also we only offer 3 Trusted businesses / category because if we offer too many then it becomes tricky to chose one trusted business from the other and we are here to save people time, money and stress...we do the research so that they don't have to ! Truly Trusted is THE Smart & Simple Choice!

We will leave the last words in this blog to Jannay a fan of www.trustedsaskatoon.com who sent a message through the contact us section of the website:

Trusted Saskatoon brags about out latest Trusted Saskatoon Contractor and Renovations, Home Builder, and our first Saskatoon Trusted Plumber & Moving & Storage listings!

What a crazy time it has been since the mass media advertising campaign of www.trustedsaskatoon.com started on May 30th! The Trusted team has been busy with the launch event, hiring our first Trusted Consultant and meeting with more and more businesses who wish to find out how they apply to be Trusted!

Well..the 4 TRUSTED companies I am going to brag about tonight had no trouble passing our verification and checking process..so if you want to know what it takes..well follow these fine examples:

1. Lindal Homes

After the winning entry in our Trusted Saskatoons Facebook contests WORSE experience was with a home builder and the new home warranty..or lack of it ..it seems fitting to have our 2nd Home Builder as our first Trusted business that we promote today...lets start off with the fact that Lindal homes come with a LIFETIME WARRANTY on the Cedar structure ...then lets just pause and look at them...here is a stunning image that showcases a new line of Lindal homes that are now available...quite different to the Lindal 'traditional homes' that you probably associate them with ...Here is a beautiful example of a TURKAL LINDAL home for you to fall in love with ..... 

Wow...modern, airy, GREEN, contemporary and ..simply beautiful. There are lots of variations / designs to choose from too...and if you are more of a traditionallist , and want that log cabin Lindal classic click here to see the gallery for yourself and get turning that dream into a reality. Doug Pocha will look after you , and will provide the best possible personal service..there is no doubt that in Doug's world the customer is 'The King' , and he rated personally one of the highest on any of our client surveys..yes people loved the homes and the ease of how they go together..but every single one of them felt that Doug cared about them , and they were made to feel absolutely valued, listened to and considered in every step of the sale ( and after too! ) ..If you are looking to build ..or buy a house and you have never considered this option..well Trusted suggests you should look into it...you will certainly be the envy of all your friends and neighbours..where ever that may be in Saskatchewan! 

2. Perfection Plumbing

Shane and Angela Cyrenne are perfectionists...so the company name is very fitting...they demand the best from themselves and all of their very capable staff, and that is why they were TOP of the list when it came to talking to Plumbers here in Saskatoon ( one of the categories with the WORST reputations as one of the Trusted founders knows only too well after being ripped off herself) ...they don't claim to be the cheapest...but they will be there when they said they will be there, will not have any hidden costs to surprise you with when presenting you with the invoice at the end....their staff are clean, courteous, uniformed and come with well stocked vans...what does this mean to you the client? It means they are not running off for an hour to get an item that is very commonly used to add 'time' on the invoice ....which is one of those additional charges that surprise you from less reputable companies..who can also charge you WAY more than the actual retail cost of the item you need..simply to get more money off you ..even though, truth be told, they pay less for that item than the general public do as a trade account!!  

Perfection Plumbing was founded in 1996 and  really are different than any other plumbing company in Saskatoon. In 2001 they became affiliated with a national plumbing association called Plumbers Success International. This means they are commited to the following :

  1. Phones promptly answered by a real person, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - even on holidays.
  2. Immediate service response time - often in less than an hour.
  3. Drug free, bondable and insured employees
  4. Uniformed technicians who: -Work out of company vehicles, NOT their own cars -Use many of the latest state-of-the-art tools and repair methods -Do not smoke, chew or swear in the clients home!
  5. They are members in good standing of the Better Business Bureau.
  6. They have some of the best warranties in the area to give you peace of mind on your investment.

 All that adds up to one thing.....Give them a call ..you will not be sorry!

If Plumbers was a top ' horror story category ' then here is another that is definitely in the top 3,  Moving and storage companies....from lost and damaged precious belongings to rat infested and damp storage units ..we are sure everyone has heard ( and hopefully not experienced ) moving nightmares. Trusted thinks that what makes it even worse is the fact that moving is proven to be one of the most stressful life experiences...and when moving companies let you down and don't care it can be extremely upsetting.

So all that being said ..we are happy to introduce our first TRUSTED Saskatoon Moving & Storage company:

3. Countrywide moving are no longer part of Trusted SDaskatoon

 

4. WINMAR 

Contractor..has to be in the top 3 too of 'horror stories ' and Winmar Saskatoon..headed up by the fantastic Selina Baldwin , specializes in dealing with the true EMERGENCY situations that all of us hope we never have to go through...... 

  • 24 hour / 365 days a year
  • Water / Sewage Extraction
  •  Structural Drying and Preservation
  •  Contents Cleaning
  •  Mould Remediation
  •  Odor Control
  •  Board up and Containment
  •  Fire Clean-up
  •  Humidity & Indoor climate control
  •  Document and Media Recovery
  •  Asbestos Abatement
  •  Restoration of Essential Services
  •  Inventory and Content Control
  •  Temporary Warehousing
  •  Bio-hazardous Materials Clean-up

 PLUS General Construction ..to put EVERTHING back together again

We think this list covers it all....but if it doesn't stil call Winmar because they will answer no matter what time of the day or night ..and they will be there to HELP YOU when you need it the most..they are committed to working in your best interests and the hand written cards of thanks and client testimonials in the office on the wall speak for themselves .... call WINMAR FIRST!!
