On a mission to fi nd the perfect home enhancement products, the right contractor or the fastest boat, thousands of local people will be attending the 34th
Annual Windsor Home & Garden Show and Windsor Boat, RV and Recreation Show on April 1 to 3.
Held at the former RONA building across from Tecumseh Mall at Lauzon Parkway and Tecumseh Road East, “our double show will be jam-packed wall to wall in this great 100,000 square
foot facility. Every vendor space has been claimed by more than 260 exhibitors,” says Stuart Galloway, president of 20/20 Show Produc-tions Inc., producer of Ontario consumer shows for over 25 years.
Presented by REMAX Preferred Realty Inc., the show o� ers “a huge variety of pretty much anything you could want for making your home more beautiful, e� cient, safe and technologically advanced, indoors and out. Skilled trades and most of the major local companies that focus on home improvements will be here. Plus, we’ve got everything for enjoying the outdoors with fi sh-
ing and recreational boats and equipment, watersports, RVs and much more,” Galloway says.
“There are so many options to shop, compare, buy and save. Talk to the pros. Find great ideas. Schedule appointments for quotes. Instead of driving to fi ve di� erent places on three dif-ferent days to check out businesses, you can do it all easily in a few hours at our one convenient location.”
Many vendors are o� ering special deals only available at the show. “Take advantage of what is here and leave smiling,” Galloway encourages.
An exciting new show feature is Landscape Ontario’s Speak-
ers Series & Gardens Exhibit. In collaboration, Landscape Ontario (Windsor Chapter) and the St. Clair College horti-cultural program are creating and building the Green for Life Gardens at the show. Knowledgeable speakers will host talks on what’s new in water gardening, pruning tips and tricks, plant-ing spring container gardens, attracting wildlife, lawn care, growing orchids and fi guring out what to with plants the Easter bunny left behind. Gardening experts and students will happily answer visitors’ questions.
Landscape design and build companies will also be at the show, demonstrating their skills with gorgeous displays.
For people who like to experience the outdoors while in motion, fi ve local marine dealers are bringing in their 2016 fl eets of recreation, pontoon and fi shing boats, personal watercraft, outboards, dock and lift systems and boating accessories.
“Two of the largest RV dealers in Ontario are showcasing their huge selection of travel trailers, fi fth wheels, motorhomes and RV accessories, plus all Yamaha PowerSports,” Galloway says.
Rochester Place Golf Club & Resort is showing people how they can live seasonally in the resort-style community. “Their modular cottages are custom fi nished and furnished, ready for people to purchase and move in. It’s a great new concept,” Galloway fi nds.
Last year’s show was such a hit that not everyone could fi nd parking. “We’ve rented 300 spaces o� site for our exhibitors, opening up 1,000 visitor parking spaces at the former RONA building. That should be ample,” Galloway assures.
Outside the main entrance, visitors will be greeted by the aroma of pizza baking in an outdoor oven. A 1920s fi re truck is certain to get attention. The Windsor Firefi ghters Honour Guard is holding a silent auction and gratefully accepting dona-tions to pay for the fi re truck’s new motor.
The honour guard is a group of local Fire Fighters who vol-unteer to honour those who serve. They march in parades, participate in funerals of fallen members and leaders and show respect in other ways. “Firefi ghters are more than willing to share their stories and be in visitors’ photos,” Galloway says. In
exchange for assistance with show parking, 20/20 Productions is making a large donation to the truck fund.
For the second year, the production company is donating $2,500 from show admissions to the 4th annual Run for Rocky, a charity run/walk that funds programs in local high school and post-secondary school systems to ensure that parents, educa-tors and youth have the knowledge and funding needed to help create Safe Schools and a support system for youth in crisis. Visit runforrocky.com or visit booth #256 for further details.
The 34th Annual Windsor Home & Garden Show and Wind-sor Boat, RV and Recreation Show is from 11am to 7 p.m., Fri., Apr. 1; 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Sat., Apr. 2; and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Sun., Apr. 3. Admission is $10. Visitors under 16 years are admitted free. There is no charge for parking. Visit ontariotradeshows.com to learn more about the shows and sign up for discounted admission coupons.

RE/MAX Preferred Realty has been the proud sponsor of the Windsor Home & Gar-den Show for the ninth year in a row, and owner Glen Muir is as thrilled to partner with 20/20 Show Productions today as he was nearly a decade ago.
The Broker of Record says that the partner-ship was always a natural fi t for his renowned company, and despite the 2008 recession didn’t think twice about jumping on board to support the event. Each RE/MAX profes-sional who will be attending the show look forward to meeting tens of thousands of new, existing or potential homeowners or sellers.
He saw it as an investment in the future – with RE/MAX there at the event, the future home-owner or seller would hopefully remember them when things began to look up.
And he was right – for nine straight years, RE/MAX has made itself visible and available to thousands of Windsor Home and Garden Show attendees. As the most recognizable real estate brand in North America, RE/MAX continues to support the numerous exhibi-tors and homeowners who make this home improvement event one of the most success-ful in the region, year after year.
“One of the reasons we continually spon-sor the show is that we love it,” says Muir. “Whether people are looking to sell, build
or buy a home, we’re there. Through us, customers can see how homes have evolved, whether through style, comfort or technol-ogy.” Muir and his team of agents welcome the chance to speak to the value of homes, their en-hancements and upgrades, and although they’re avail-able at the show, custom-
ers are invited to book time with their RE/MAX agent of choice for one-on-one time, when they can provide an ap-proximate current value of a home and its value after integral improvements.
“Of course there are variables – there’s no such thing as a once-size-fi ts-all,” says Muir, who opened RE/MAX Preferred Re-alty in 1993 and who now oversees a team of 130 licensed realtors. “We understand the home is a person’s biggest asset, one which appreciates, and because our brand stands for professionalism, we will never over-
promise and under-deliver. When a person sees our trademark balloon (and logo), they know they’re going to have someone working hard for them.
“In this seller’s market, it’s tempting to go with the cheapest realtor. Some do it on their own. Do they sell? Sure they do. But when you sell on your own, you’re putting a sign on your lawn and hoping for the best. But when you sign with a RE/MAX agent, your home is going to go out to as many people as pos-sible so nobody misses out. We recently had a property that had 12 o� ers on it. You wouldn’t get that with a less experienced realtor or if you’re doing this privately.”
Muir, who has been a real estate profes-sional since 1985, continues. “Every repre-sentative on this team – people who have the knowledge on how to market your home, to price it right, to reach as many potential buy-ers as possible – is professional. They’re cour-teous. They have an incomparable standard of excellence.
“And that’s why we’re the most trusted brand in the country.”

Since 2006, Bryan Hazzard and his family have been servicing Wind-sor-Essex for all of its residential and light commercial heating and cooling needs. Their mission, wife Kristine says, is to provide the best, most honest and knowledgeable cus-tomer service in the area – and they do this by sourcing only the highest quality products, installed only by courteous, e� cient and qualifi ed Technicians.
Before founding Absolute Comfort, Bry-an worked for a major competitor. “he was just so frustrated with their poor commitment to customer service and satisfaction” says wife Kristine, who now serves as O� ce Manag-er. “Bryan’s focus was and always will be the customer, which is why people trust us.”
Absolute Comfort’s 100% satisfaction guarantee comes with every furnace or air conditioner system they sell and install. Absolute Comfort, a fully licensed and insured member of the Heating, Refrigera-tion and Air Conditioning Institute of Canada, does it’s best to provide their customers with the most com-petitive pricing and the best HVAC e� ciency.
Some of the services Absolute Comfort provides are service and repair; installation of new equip-
ment; annual maintenance checks; fi lters; and installation of gas lines. They are also a Trane Comfort Spe-cialist – while there are various independent Trane dealers, not all dealers qualify as Comfort Special-ists. This qualifi cation means that Absolute Comfort Control Services has demonstrated a proven record of customer satisfaction and has the knowledge required to recommend the right system for your home. They
have not only the expe-rience, but the factory training, to install and maintain your Trane system for the life of your product.
“Our approach is real-ly customer-focused,” says Kristine. “We have different options for every budget, but what really we have going for us is our reliability and commitment. We o� er a 100% money back guar-antee.”
“Also, we don’t rent equipment – we have much more a� ordable fi nancing options. Often people are often lured in by what seems like low monthly rental fees, but what they sometimes don’t real-ize is that, in the end, not only are they paying more per month but could end up paying almost twice as much in total.”
Absolute Comfort’s expert techs are available today.

Resort Living at Your Place or Rochester Place
BY K A R E N PAT O N- EVA N S
The return of sunshine and warm breezes is drawing everyone outdoors. Always ahead of the trends, Paul St. Pierre and his team make it possible for local people to savour the good weather months, whether in their own yards or at Rochester Place Golf Club & Resort.
St. Pierre heads up Landscape E� ects Group and Rochester Place Golf Club & Resort, both located in Belle River.
“When you want something different for your property, call Landscape E� ects,” St. Pierre invites. The company designs and builds award-winning landscapes that complement the home’s architecture and its owner’s good taste.
Landscaping that is well done is a source of pleasure and pride. It’s also a solid invest-ment in the property. “The most advanta-geous time to save is at the building stage of the residence. Rather than ripping out medio-cre features and redoing them, it’s wisest to do it right the fi rst time,” St. Pierre advises.
Hardscaping establishes the structure of the yard. Landscape E� ects installs natural rock, paving stones and other durable materials to create patios, terraces, pathways, walls and more. “Outdoor rooms continue to be in demand. We elevate them with fi replaces and pits; attractive outdoor kitchen cabinetry and appliances; and pergolas, gazebos and other shade structures,” says St. Pierre.
Low and no maintenance landscapes enable homeowners to revel in their spare time, rath-er than weeding and watering. “Our new self-watering pots and desert planters almost look
after themselves,” St. Pierre assures.Now is the time for homeowners to share
their visions and wish lists with Landscape E� ects. Joining the talented team is a very experienced designer from Vancouver.
St. Pierre says, “We are excited about pooling our expertise to achieve outstanding results for our clients during this fresh sea-son of landscapes.”
For people who want to kick back and make the most of their
leisure time in the warm weather months, Rochester Place Golf Club & Resort o� ers accommodation options for singles, couples, families and seniors. They can bring in their own RVs and tents or rent or pur-
chase Rochester Place’s tiny homes, newly built in the resort.
Several di� erent tiny home or cottage designs o� er three-season living in mod-ern, sophisticated comfort. Each is beauti-fully furnished and landscaped. Homebuyers have options for customizing their own places.
Families love Rochester Place’s summer and junior golf camps, outdoor swimming pool, splash pad and secure playground.
Golfers put their skills to the test on the pristine 18-hole, par-72 course, newly upgraded.
Boaters can dock their watercraft at Roch-ester Place and be out on Lake St. Clair
quickly. Canal improvements were recently made.
At the Parkside Grille and outdoor lounge, Chef Kirk has introduced his new eclectic menu, ranging from gourmet burgers to
multi-course upscale dinners. Even if you have to work this
summer, you can stay here and be immersed in the resort life-style on your personal time,” St. Pierre says.
All that Landscape Effects Group and Rochester Place Golf
Club & Resort have to o� er is revealed at the 34th Annual Windsor Home & Garden Show and Windsor Boat, RV and Recreation Show on Apr. 1 to 3.

Brothers Bob and Chuck Howell, with a near total of 80 years of experience in the marine industry, opened Howell’s Marine in 2010. The Chatham-based business was born out of a love of boating, with Chuck describing it as a “service-driven company.”
“A lot of marine dealers are focused on sales,” says Chuck. “We are mainly about conversation and comfort and ensuring that the client who comes in looking for something knows
more about it when he walks out than when he did when he walked in. We have a real passion for this industry, and we always want to share that with everybody who visits us.”
With more experience in Mercury Marine equipment than anyone else in Southwestern Ontario, Howell’s also carries Yamaha, Southbay Pontoons, Polar Kraft and Stratos Boats, as well as Canadian-owned Legend Boats. “These are brands we believe in, and we brands we know well,” says Chuck. “When we’re talking to the consumer, we don’t oversell or falsify infor-mation, because we’re not just selling it – we’re the ones who also work on it.
“We’re also non-commissioned, so we have no interest in pushing things for the sake of it. We want you to love what you walk out with.”
Chuck says he and Bob have been boating ever since he can remember; their grandfather owned a cottage, and their family has taken advantage of this bountiful, beautiful area for several generations.
“We’ve got such a great environment around us,” says Chuck. “(With boating) comes peace of mind and relaxation. You can adopt the sport of fi shing, you can do water skiing, take the
family out and enjoy each other’s company. There’s a reason that once upon a time, this area was the capital of boating.
“There’s nothing like boating, and there’s nothing like this area.”
Chuck says that it’s this love of boating that makes custom-ers feel at home and at peace at Howell’s Marine. So many customers, he says, have been given false information when they’ve purchased privately or through dealers who have had less knowledge and experience. “Sometimes people don’t get what they expected, and all of a sudden they end up with a real problem – and the family wants to get rid of the boat and has a bad taste in their mouth about boating. That’s hard to repair.
“So when you buy from a reputable dealer like us, who know the equipment and the technology and the tricks and tips and tools, you can turn around that information. It’s not just about the sale. It’s about really getting people to love the experience.”

BY K A R E N PAT O N- EVA N S
A pool is intended to provide pleasure for many summers to come. To ensure it will last, it is important to choose an experi-enced, reputable and well-established pool
company. Pools by Angelo backs its work-manship and products with the owner’s 35-plus years of building expertise.
Angelo Mariani dipped his toes in the industry as a student, helping his father build pools during summer vacation. He went on
to found Pools by Angelo, located at 2950 Je� erson Blvd., Windsor. He, his children and valued sta� design, build and maintain pools all over Windsor-Essex County.
“The world of pools has evolved to a more aesthetic and maintenance-friendly realm,”
observes Cristina Mariani, manager of oper-ations. “Our salt water pool construction allows homeowners to enjoy crystal clear water with minimal e� ort.”
To add longevity to the pool’s structure, new powder and e-coating on in-ground pool walls is available on most Pools by Angelo installations. “The walls are still galvanized steel at their core and powder- and e-coated, much like a car,” Mariani says.
Pools by Angelo may be the fi rst company in Canada to o� er the superior coating ser-vice, Mariani believes. “It’s one more thing that sets us apart from other companies.”
Having built hundreds of pools locally, “we are very knowledgeable about the soils in the greater Windsor area. We know before we break ground what obstacles we may be facing,” says Mariani.
O� ering an impressive selection in pools, energy-e� cient hot tubs, retractable pool enclosures and other products for residenc-es and commercial venues, Pools by Angelo looks after its clients. Pool opening and clos-ing, weekly maintenance packages, onsite technical service and more are available.
Free, fast water testing is done at Pools by Angelo’s storefront.
Mariani says, “As a family, we work with your family to design your backyard paradise and take care of you and your investment.”
Pools by Angelo is at the 34th Annual Windsor Home & Garden Show and Windsor Boat, RV and Recreation Show on Apr. 1 to 3.

Luxury doesn’t cost extra at the newly built Seacli� Heights rental apartments near Lake Erie. Catering to adults seeking a worry-free life, the beautiful, all-inclusive, condo-style units provide high-end ameni-ties, comfort, and security at a� ordable rates.
Located at 40 Seacli� Drive East in Leamington, Seacli� Heights is the culmination of many months of thor-ough research into the kind of home sought by busy professionals, emp-ty nesters, retirees, snow-birds, and world travelers. The builder, Piroli Group Developments, toured sev-eral high-end resorts and adult communities in order to deter-mine the leading trends for fl oor plan layouts, fi nishes, fi xtures, and amenities.
The result is a variety of stylish apart-ments created for people who are ready for a change in their lives, freed from the burden of home maintenance. “They want to throw away their snow shovels and lawnmowers. They just want to lock their doors and go whenever they choose,” says Rob Piroli, the
founder and CEO of Piroli Group Devel-opments. By renting all-inclusive luxury apartments that are also a� ordable, ten-ants have more time and freedom to pursue their passions.
The one and two bedroom units have spa-cious, open concept layouts. Large windows
admit plenty of sunlight to add a natu-ral glow to the trendy wide plank
vinyl hardwood fl ooring and plush carpeting. The intel-
ligent, functional kitchen is fi tted with handsome cabinetry and granite countertops. Each unit includes a high-e� cien-cy fridge, stove, dish-
washer, and microwave. The bathroom features
a glass-enclosed shower, a stylish vanity with a polished
granite countertop, and a large statement mirror. An in-suite laundry
room is equipped with a side-by-side washer and dryer. High-end fi xtures throughout provide task and ambient lighting. Ample storage spaces help keep everything orga-nized.
Making the most of Seacli� Heights’ prox-imity to nearby Lake Erie, each unit has an oversized balcony so residents can relax and
enjoy the breeze o� the water.Tenants can step beyond their own doors
to participate in the active, social lifestyle supported by Seacli� Height. The common room with a full kitchen, lounge area, and billiards table is ideal for hosting large gath-erings and will be used for social events for the residents. The exercise facility features a variety of cardio machines and free-weights.
Seacli� Heights’ private courtyard was designed for exercise, conversation, and unwinding. During warm weather months, cabanas and lounge chairs will be arranged around the in-ground, heated outdoor salt water pool for the comfort of residents and their guests. An outdoor fi replace, three gas barbecues, and a seating area encourage cooking and dining al fresco.
Such considerate additions will enable residents to make the most time spent at home. “Our tenants are so enthusiastic about Seacli� Heights that they are recom-mending it to their friends. We have seen a few friends reserve units side-by-side in the building!” Piroli notes.
Residents will start moving into the mod-
ern, clean-lined building on June 1, and there are still apartments available for rent.
For adults transitioning to their next stage of life, Seacli� Heights can be their forever community. It’s the fi rst phase in a luxury rental apartment and retirement complex in friendly, active Leamington. When tenants move into the newly com-pleted apartment building this spring, Piroli Group Developments will already be at work constructing a 120-bed retirement home next door.
By enabling tenants to age in place, Piroli Group Developments gives them enhanced living options and the control to decide what is best for themselves – whether that is in an assisted living unit in the retirement home or a rental apartment at Seacli� Heights.
Envisioning the possibilities of life at Seacli� Heights is simple. Interested par-ties are invited to tour the model suite and experience the look and feel of the space in person. A tour can be arranged by calling 1-844-747-0542.
Additional details and a virtual tour are available at www.seacli� eights.ca

Just when spring flowers are pushing through the earth to beau-tify local neighbourhoods, Imperial Homes is breaking ground on hand-some townhomes in the Aspen Lake Family Living community on Aspenshore Drive, Windsor.
Two architects spent six months designing the townhomes. “We listened to local people and took their top wish list items to create something di� erent for Windsor,” says Andrew Smith, a broker with Deerbrook Realty Inc. Brokerage who is now pre-selling the Aspen Lake townhomes.
The homes appeal to busy singles and couples who want to enjoy low maintenance home life. When traveling for business or pleasure, they can lock their doors and go, knowing the townhome associa-tion will take care of grass cutting, snow removal and general outdoor maintenance.
Empty nesters seeking to downsize without forfeiting style appreciate the quality finishes and workmanship. With every-thing conveniently on the main fl oor, they can age in place. People with mobility issues can have their
townhome built with ramps, wider doors, wheelchair accessible sinks and other considerations. Prox-imity to walking trails, Aspen Lake, WFCU Centre and shopping encourage residents to be active.
The a� ordable townhomes’ base price includes many desirable features. New owners customize their rooms, choosing from Impe-rial Homes’ selection of fl ooring, kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, stone countertops, wall colours and more.
The exterior is clad in a striking grey-toned mix of stone, brick and stucco. Sheltering every front door is a tall, arched portico, graced with a dormer window above. Multiple peaked roofs, large windows and
attractive garage doors enhance the townhomes’ charm. “The exteriors are more interesting than most townhouses you will fi nd,” Smith believes.
Single level ranches are built as semi-duplexes with units of 1,536 square feet and three-plexes and four-plexes with units of 1,200 and 1,400 square feet. Each has two
bedrooms and two bathrooms. In all, there will be 88 units. The mod-el townhome will be ready to tour in approximately four months. The fi rst new owners may tentatively move in late August.
In the modern, open concept great room, the natural gas fi re-place adds warm ambiance. The kitchen and its island are oversized.
All-wood cabinetry extends to the ceiling and is topped with crown molding. Owners have the choice of quartz or granite countertops and tile or hardwood fl ooring.
The main bathroom features a single vanity with a granite coun-tertop and a combined acrylic tub and shower. The master ensuite bathroom is a wonderful retreat, with a spacious tiled shower enclosed with glass doors and a granite topped double vanity. Ample storage is found in the mas-ter bedroom’s walk-in closet.
The laundry room is on the main fl oor. The basement is unfi nished; Imperial Homes has package pric-ing to complete the space.
Landscaping includes the sod, driveway, walkway to the front door and sprinklers. A free patio is o� ered as a pre-sale bonus.

“We’re Great in Beds!!”BY K A R E N PAT O N- EVA N S
Bedroom Depot’s cheeky slogan is no idle boast. When you sleep, nap or do whatever else you do in bed, Bedroom the store is dedicated to ensuring you feel terrifi c.
Proving the Bedroom Depot really is great in beds, owner Sean Dube stocks the latest trends from Ser-ta, Simmons, Springwall, Ashley. Leggett and Platt and other leading mattress manufacturers. Bed engineering has advanced hugely since he opened Bedroom Depot in Windsor in 2000. “The most exciting news is in memory foam and latex mat-tresses, including toppers and pillows,” Dube says.
For instance, a memory foam mattress softens in reaction to body heat, allowing it to mold to a warm body to relieve pressure points on your body.
Latex has a distinctly di� erent feel from all other
mattress surfaces. It is highly elastic, giving and yielding, while at the same time being very resilient and supportive. It pushes up, creating a buoyant e� ect, and distributes weight load sideways, rather than down, eliminating pressure points.
Futons, day beds, bunk beds, hospital beds – Bed-room Depot has them all. Sixty di� erent mattresses and 30 bedroom suites are on display. By the piece or the entire suite, Bedroom Depot carries furnish-ings to complement every design style. Artisan Home Furniture, Ashley Furniture, Bassett Fur-niture, Ideal Furniture and other leading brands are in store.
After you’ve made your choice, Bedroom Depot’s respectful delivery team will bring and install your purchase anywhere in Essex County.
For a peek at the large selection, check out Bed-room Depot at www.bedroomdepot.ca, on Facebook or at the 34th Annual Windsor Home & Garden Show and Windsor Boat, RV and Recreation Show on Apr. 1 to 3. BOOTH 126
