Alliance Security is a family owned and operated business proudly serving the Ottawa area since 1992. We offer the most advanced equipment with interactive capabilities available for home and business security as well as sensors for early detection of smoke, gas, water, temperature and medical alert monitoring. True life safety. We provide local 24 hour ULC monitoring with back up stations around the country. With cloud based and conventional cameras you can now keep an eye on your home or business at all times or when and how you want. Unprecedented access and control of your most valuable assets from virtually anywhere with your smart phone, in the palm of your hand.

We are an A+ member of the Better business Bureau with a complaint free status for over 14 years because we care about our clients. Our straight forward approach to “Quality Service and Systems” verses the “Cheapest Possible Price” has been crucial to keeping our reputation as a preferred no nonsense contractor. We do not just sell a security system and monitoring service to you. We provide you with recommendations and the information you need to make an educated decision to get the Peace of Mind you deserve.

Started together with his father Leo in 1992, Terrill took charge of the security operations from the small electrical contracting business they started years earlier. Terrill has taken what was once the smallest Alliance franchise in Canada to one of the most successful. Although Alliance has not been a franchise for many years Terrill has managed to build one of the most respected names in the business. With his son Dylan showing interest in learning the ropes this is truly a multi generation family business. The security industry has changed dramatically over the years and Alliance owes its success to sticking with traditional values and quality custom designed systems rather than gimmick mass marketing sales techniques.

Terrill reluctantly became a member of the OXA not knowing if this was a good fit for him at the start. He now attends every meeting and event possible as this group is much more than just a networking group to him. He considers most to be good friends and almost family.

The CertaPro Difference
Our Certainty Service System®

At CertaPro Painters, our reputation is based on Certainty — your Certainty of a job well done. We focus on the details of every project — interior and exterior — and we focus on you, our client.

We recognize that home and business painting is not an everyday occurrence for you. There is education and preparation that needs to occur to ensure your project goes smoothly and according to your expectations. We do this through a process of communication and education so we can co-create the best possible painting experience with you. We call this the Certainty Service System®.

We have a professionally staffed call center

Our professionally staffed call center is available to take your call from 8 a.m. until 11 p.m. We can review your proposal, answer basic questions about your project, or we can put you through to a person in the field who can. We can take and deliver messages. If you would like an estimate or a color consultation, we can schedule that appointment when you call. If you ever have a problem with your paint job, we are there to listen and get you help.

We work from detailed written proposals

The person who prepared your Proposal is a trained Estimator. They have taken the necessary time to understand your needs and the requirements of your project and they have provided the details to you in a Proposal and a Customer Care Form. Your Proposal and your Customer Care Form are living documents that will be used by the painting crew to ensure your painting project is completed to your satisfaction.

Your project is managed by a professional

A Job Site Supervisor will be assigned to oversee your entire project from start to finish. CertaPro will be on-site on your project full time and will work with you daily. They will be using tools developed during thousands of painting projects to make sure your project progresses smoothly. Their role is to communicate with you throughout the job, answer your questions, and address your concerns.

We call back after the paint has dried

We like to maintain our reputation with as much certainty as possible. Our Quality Callback Program works to make sure we have every job surveyed by an independent Quality Assurance Team. They will contact you approximately one to three weeks after the project is completed to ensure it was delivered to your satisfaction with regard to both the final results and your overall experience with us. If they call and you are not home, they will leave you a special number to call so you can provide us with your feedback at a time convenient to you.

With 25+ years of experience producing, directing and editing video projects for television, government, corporations and the internet, we know how to design and deliver your message to establish you as an authority in your industry.

Most businesses have realized that continued success relies heavily on internet marketing and developing relationships with prospects and customers alike.

Seventy-eight percent (78%) of consumers use the internet to do research before buying a product or service.

And YouTube is now the second largest search engine available. And if you're not using video to promote your business then you may be missing out. One of the easiest ways to get more customers is by developing trust and authority with a video.

For businesses, establishing and maintaining an online presence is crucial. And there are three factors necessary for success:
• A search engine optimized website
• An online marketing strategy, and
• A social media presence.

That’s where eTrue Media can help. We can set you up and put you on the road to success so you stay ahead of your competition.

Framed! has been in operation since 1976. Staffed by artists, crafts people and certified picture framers, our goal is to put good design and technical advice into a framing package you will own for a long, long time.

Creative problem-solving and display is our cornerstone. The process of understanding your needs and selecting materials to enhance the artwork - whether a contemporary painting, photograph, or hand made textile- creates anticipation as customer and framer envision the final outcome.

We observe the practice of "preservation framing" by using archival techniques and materials. If your artwork needs restoration or repair, we have a network of specialists from the Conservation industry whose skills we match to your needs.

With over 38 years of experience, we work to maintain excellence in custom framing and design and develop good relationships that keep you coming back. We evolve with ever-changing materials and stay informed of interior trends to stay at the leading edge of our industry.

"As Re/Max Absolute agent, we hold ourselves to higher standards. Our goal for RE/MAX Absolute Realty is to provide outstanding service to purchasers and vendors, by use of state of the art technology, personal service and professional ethics. Relationships are more important than transactions. You may have noticed that many real estate agents take a transactional approach to sales—identifying clients, closing the deal, and then moving on to the next one. I choose not to work that way because I believe you deserve more from the professional you decide to work with. My energy and effort have always been focused on being your “best” real estate agent in Ottawa, rather than the “biggest”. I pay careful attention to my clients’ specific needs and goals. With a solid understanding of real estate trends and, specifically, the housing market in the Nation’s Capital, I pride myself in ensuring my clients are educated through my knowledge and expertise. Helping them make informed decisions about their next move and their largest financial decisions."

Our products meet Health Canada Regulations and are proudly registered with them. Because we are always looking into the best products and most innovative training techniques available, we send our staff and trainers to multiple classes at various times during the year. Our next big mission is to expand in 2018 our operations to Europe so we can offer the same high standards we proudly offer in North America.

Our motto "The beginning of a sexy look" relies on the importance of finding quality products priced competitively and comprehensive eyelash training. Client experience is just as important as your salon's budget. For that reason at Temptation Lashes, we have found that the best way to invest in your salon is to offer you better eyelash extension products at the lowest possible prices for quality eyelashes and a well-rounded eyelash extension curriculum.
