An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

RE: Renovation x2
Dear Nick, and the Design?Spec team,
We have settled into our home in the past few months and we admire on a daily basis the work that was
completed by Design?Spec. And we have had this pleasure, not just once, but twice, in a span of four
years! Working closely with Christine McGee of Jaqueline Glass and Associates on the design, and with
your team for the execution of the vision we had collaborated on was a pleasure.
Both you and Christine have high standards, and the end results are beautiful, functional and inspirational.
Design Spec completed the large scope of both projects in very tight time frames which required the
orchestration of trades, master craftsmen and specialty skills. In addition, we appreciated your
willingness to listen to our list of “must?haves” and making them happen.
While the renovations did have some hiccups, as most of them do, we also liked your open lines of communication in the process.
Tony’s quick response to concerns were also greatly appreciated, and his personal follow up and handling of situations was reassuring.
The site manager, was again outstanding. He kept us informed of issues as they developed
throughout each day and continually kept us in the loop. We appreciate the fact that we were consulted prior to any modifications that had to be made on site. What looks straight forward on paper is rarely a reality in a renovation. The Site manager took the time to explain to us, often with the contractors present, what our options were when items could not proceed as planned in the drawings. The end results were
always satisfactory and enhanced our living space. It is a pleasure to work with him.
All of the individuals brought on were professional and courteous. This was of particular importance to us as our very young and impressionable children often had to accompany us on site.
As for the site itself, it was always neat and tidy. We now use the space in our house from top to bottom. It is difficult for us to decide which area we like best, as each floor is unique and utilized daily for specific purposes by each member of the family.
The final results are impressive. We feel as if the renovation is magazine worthy, and could not be happier.
Our experience with Design?Spec from beginning to end was a pleasure. We have already recommended Design-Spec to family and friends.
Sincerely
Home Owners
Oakville
