It would be difficult to praise Papro's services too highly. I approached other companies and was treated in a very impersonal manner. From my first contact with Steve I felt he was enthusiastic about my vision and an excellent listener about the nuances I wanted to create. The Production crew and supervision are professional and a delight to have in your home. The final product exceeded anything I could have envisioned but stayed true to my dream Cave. Our home is 2 1/2 hours from Toronto but this was never an issue for construction or maintenance. When we had the devastating misadventure of a flash flood last year Papro were able to promptly respond with the de-construction , advice on safe wine storage and then prompt re-construction of this beautiful space. I feel like Steve, Ed and all the crew are permanent partners in this dream that they have both helped create and maintain. Always there when I need them. Thanks Papro. You guys Rock!

We were really pleased with all aspects of our experience with Papro Consulting. Steve'’s experience, talent, and passion translates into a great design, and a final product that more than met our expectations. The design experience was personal and took into account both our taste and the space that we had to work with. Steve'’s process involves inspection, discussion, and the production of 3D drawings that really allow you to envision what your wine cellar will look like, which in turn gives you a much better way to interact in the process and end up with something you can really be happy with, and proud of. Steve and his team were very professional during the construction process, and took great care to ensure that our house was protected and treated with respect. The workmanship was of the high level that we had been expecting, and the details and level of service get top grades – they really delivered and were a pleasure to deal with throughout.

Thank you so much...our new wine cellar is absolutely amazing! The design and workmanship was beyond compare. From our first contact with Papro to the completion of the wine cellar, you and your extraordinary team exceeded our expectations. It is truly rare to find an organization that is so customer focused, attentive to detail and exceptional in every way. It is our new favourite room in the house! Thank you again,
Mr. & Mrs. Hardy, Burlington
I can't thank you enough. Papro is a great organization. The help in planning, the sharing, and developing of ideas along with my "“theme" and the pain-staking production of a masterpiece. I wasn'’t sure I could bring my vision to reality but you were positive and encouraging throughout. I certainly didn'’t find that attitude at other places I consulted.
I am a super happy camper! Love the finished product. Thank you! I snuck away on Thursday to Florida to play golf with a buddy. I got home yesterday afternoon and Carolyn got back last night. I did not even take my bags out of the car. I came straight in and started to load up my wine room. Now I need to do some shopping!
Jeffery Cullen, Etobicoke
Dealing with the Papro Consulting team was a pleasure! From the moment we were introduced to Steve by our designer, to the completion our our wine cellar, we felt very comfortable dealing with all the associates at Papro Consulting. They were always available to answer our questions and never made us feel pressured in any way. Our wine cellar turned out exactly as we had envisioned and we couldn'’t be happier! Thank you so much to the associates at Papro Consulting for helping turn our wine cellar dream into reality!
Debbie Allen, Montreal
It was a real pleasure having Steve at Papro construct my new wine cellar. Throughout the process Steve was attentive to details, full of suggestions and always presented realistic timelines. Papro provided responsible and high – quality tradesmen who were considerate while working in my home. Hiring Papro and dealing with Steve gave me the utmost confidence that my project would be completed to the highest quality. Thanks Steve + team!

From the custom design to the complete installation and after install follow up I was completely satisfied with Steve and his company - GREAT JOB my wine cellar looks amazing!
D. Clarke, Brooklin
We just completed our wine cellar. We are absolutely thrilled! From start to finish, Papro Consulting did an excellent job from the completing of the design drawings to the finished project, everything was done with tremendous care.
E. Bolshin, North York
I hired Papro Consulting Ltd. based on some google searches and reviews, and I'm happy I did. Steve at Papro Consulting took the time to go through the entire process from start to finish. His estimates on time frames and costs were pretty dead on. The work was done in a timely matter, and I can be picky about mess (there was next to none). The final look of my wine cellar was exactly what I was aiming for. I could go on for pages regarding what I appreciated about working with Steve and Papro. But to keep it short I think what makes him so good is he sees each job as an opportunity to create a relationship with the customer, and he goes out of his way to do whatever it takes to form that relationship. I couldn't be happier and in the future I will recommend Papro Consulting to anyone looking for a custom wine cellar.
Adriano Sorella, Milton
I fully endorse and recommend Steve and his company, Papro Consulting. Steve worked with my wife and I to design our (my) wine haven and as per my wife, it is "my happy room". Steve and his crew told me what they were going to do...they told me what it would cost...they did what they said and then billed me what they had told me they would. I find that refreshing and professional in today's environment. I am ultimately left with a show piece in my home that i am proud of....no visit to our home is complete without a trip down to "my happy place" where I proudly show off the wine and incredible room that houses my treasures. Thank you Steve. You and your design and install team did a fantastic job and I would be proud to be a reference to anyone seeking to use your services. Bravo!
P. Mertes, Mississauga
Papro was highly competent and professional throughout the entire project, Our Wine Cellar is the focal point of our basement and the attention to detail and the finished product was stellar. Steve has incredible business sense and acumen and most importantly has Integrity! I would highly recommend Papro for anyone looking to build a wine cellar.
R. Watkin, Burlington
Steve and his team are highly professional and knowledgeable. Steve was very collaborative in the design of my cellar and was respectful of my wishes in the look I was going for. This was a very important part of the design of our new home and his team also worked well with my designer. He pulled it off and it is a highlight of our home. His prices are very competitive and I have recommended him to several friends and a large private city club. He is the best!!!
V. Forrest, Unionville
I have hired Papro Consulting to design, plan, and construct my wine cellar at my dream 7000 sq ft home that I have recently built in an affluent area in the City of Toronto. The job was quite complicated and involved many other trades such as an electrician, home automation expert, HVAC, Glass Door Entry manufacturer, Onyx supplier and installer, custom LED panel manufacturer, and flooring. Steve took the lead coordinating, scheduling and managing each and every one of these trades. Papro delivered an outstanding quality work and service. Out of the 60 (+/-) trades and suppliers I have dealt with in my house building process, I would rate him as number ONE with respect to Service, Quality, and Delivery Time.
N. Weinberg, Toronto
Working with Papro was a pleasure! They designed and built a wine cellar in my basement while I was renovating the entire basement. Things could not have gone any smoother as Steve and his Papro team worked seamlessly with my general contractor working on my basement and I am really enjoying the finished product. I highly recommend these guys!
R. Berry, Scarborough
When we were researching for our wine cellar, we found it very difficult to find someone who would try and think differently from the average wine cellar. Then we found Papro and from the start, they listened, understood and only complimented the image that we were trying to create. They did this all within our budget and were only a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend them.
Laura and Maurizio, Kleinburg
We recently spent the last 16 months building the home of our dreams. Although we are not big wine drinkers, the custom home screamed for a wine cellar. We met Steve from Papro Consulting at the Interior Design Show in Toronto and were immediatly impressed with his knowledge and passion for what he does. We indicated that we were not big wine drinkers but still wanted a beautiful custom cellar without breaking the bank. After meeting at his office, Steve came up with a gorgeous design within budget! Everyone that enters the space is amazed at its simplicity, look and function!! We would highly reccomend Papro Consulting when designing your dream cellar!!
S. Benlolo, Aurora
Papro Consulting are a fabulous company to use for your wine room. We installed the cable rack system and it looks absolutely fabulous. Papro Consulting helped us all the way through schematic design with very clear renderings, assistance with lighting ideas and valuable information about lighting, insulation and temperature cooling systems. I could not have been happier with their positive approach to our project!

We interviewed several wine cellar consultants and hired Steve from Papro Consulting. Our cellar was completed a couple of weeks ago and we are thrilled with the results. It is perfect. Steve and all of his tradesmen were a pleasure to work with. They had terrific design ideas, the work was done efficiently, on-time and on budget and to the highest standards of craftsmanship. The worksite was also kept very clean and organized throughout the project. I highly recommend Papro Consulting without any reservations. Steve is a perfectionist and treats the project as if it is taking place in his own home. Sincerely, A Very Happy Customer.

The quality, knowledge and creativity of Papro Consulting within the wine cellar industry is impressive! They have a great insight into design for form and function. Steve's desire to combine traditional wine storage solutions with new and exciting materials is opening up new possibilities for our companies to work together. We are looking forward to working with Papro to create some truly unique wine cellars.
Architectural Plastics, Inc.
I am an architect who advised the client to hire Papro to consult with us on how to get the wine cellar that I had envisioned for the client. Steve was very responsive and helpful and his expertise was required to deliver the best product. I appreciated that Steve respected my role as designer and feel we collaborated well. I will use him as our wine cellar consultant on future jobs. His company handled the fabrication/install of the millwork components and I was very pleased with the quality and install staff and how they accommodated my request for final tweaks on site during the 2 days of install.
Wanda Ely Architect Inc.
We had a custom wine cellar made, for the price of the competition's "kit" cellars. the job was done exactly as promised, on time, on cost, with fit and finish excellent. this is one of our favourite rooms of the house now. We highly recommend Steve. Very approachable, and knowledgeable.

Upon researching for a wine cellar consultant, I decided to look in HOUZZ at which time I came across Papro Consulting. Steve and his team were instrumental in creating a fantastic design from the input and ideas my spouse and I had in mind. It was Tuscan, rustic, and unique. The construction was organized, scheduled effectively, and was exactly what the 3D design displayed. The cellar looked like it belonged in my basement since inception of the construction of my home. Steve's team, whether it was the designer (Joanne), the mill worker (Chris), the stone mason (Dino), or the cooling unit installer (Mike) were all very thorough and attentive to our needs. Our wine cellar is the focal point of not only our basement but our entire home. I have yet to have a guest in our home not be surprised by the overall presence - it impresses everyone.

I was very happy with the outcome of my wine cellar. Steve came up with some great ideas to accomplish this modern look. Lighting was very important and the back light inside the wine slots makes a great look.
- Sammy F
Steve did a fantastic wine cellar (combination of kit and custom) for us at a fraction of the price of a full custom cellar. Around 1200 bottles for around $10k installed (cooling unit separate). We found him great to work with – friendly, efficient and trustworthy. Good trades are hard to find so I’d have no problem recommending him.
- D. Dattels
They installed a gorgeous large wine cabinet in our house. They remedied a small problem. They tidied up every night. They did not juggle several jobs at once. They finished it promptly. I was exceedingly impressed.
- Mary Janigan
Papro Consulting designed and installed our wine room. They were very professional from start to finish and also very knowledgeable. The end result was beautiful and the workmanship was of highest quality. We are extremely pleased with the wine room.
