Advice, drawings, permits

We first contacted David almost a year ago to help us better understand our options with regard to better using our existing space. It has been an excellent experience. We reached out to him in need of a quick roof repair permit, and were thrilled to discover through our work with him that his advice and expertise are so much broader than expected. He led us through a process of articulating our needs and exploring options, and repeatedly surprised us by presenting ideas we would never have identified or considered without his coaching. When we encountered snags - the kind that are inevitable when dealing with a 100 year-old home - during the transition from the drawing/permit stage to actual construction, David did not abandon us! Throughout, he encouraged us to ask the silly questions, and has been more than willing to make modifications as needed. We would not hesitate to recommend David Smith to our family and friends.

Company Response

Thank you Amy for the kind words and generous review, I know that you’re very busy so taking the time to write this review means that much more to me.
It has been a pleasure working with you and David for the past year evaluating your various options to try to understand what makes sense financially and what will contribute most to enhancing your quality of life.
I think that the process has proved invaluable in the end considering what our ideas were at the beginning and what the end solution turned out to be. There is no doubt that spending this time and going through the various scenarios will save you time and money moving forward.
FYI HomeStars readers costs of services on this project were $3750+HST.
