Overseeing condo renovations

I had a great experience with this company. They made sure our needs for a new floor, painting and other finishes were met. Any time I had a question, or needed something done, they responded right away.
Although condo management were difficult to deal with, managed to complete the job on time.
I would definitely recommend them!

Amazing Partner. Top quality work and care

Top quality team and service. Bevan is extremely knowledgable, fair, and proactive. With decades of experience, I felt in great hands from start to finish. I've been able to be the benefactor of great work, great contacts, and know that I've got a great ally in Juniper.

Thanks team.

Project

I recently had the pleasure of working with Bevan and his team at Juniper Development, and I must say that they truly exceeded all of my expectations. From start to finish, their professionalism and expertise made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. The team displayed a high level of attention to detail and a commitment to delivering a top-quality product. Their communication was always prompt, and they made sure to keep me informed and involved every step of the way. What really stood out to me was the team's passion for their work. They took the time to understand my vision for the project and brought it to life with their creativity and innovative ideas. The end result was better than I could have ever imagined, and I am beyond thrilled with the outcome. I would highly recommend Bevan and his team to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable developer. They are a true asset to the industry and a pleasure to work with. Thank you for your outstanding work, Juniper Development!

Bathroom reno

The Juniper team did a great job on our second floor bathroom The team was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. When the unexpected cropped up [urgent joist repair in the bathroom floor], the Juniper team gave us options and made the unexpected repair in short order. The quality of the work, fit and finish, tiling everything is functional and looks great.

Main floor gut and remodel

Our architects referred us to Bevan, Jacques and their Juniper team while we were planning an entire gut of our main floor, as well as some updates to our second floor and basement. We are so glad that they did because we couldn't have asked for a better experience! From our very first meeting, Bevan and Jacques were friendly, knowledgeable and highly communicative and collaborative, all traits that are not guaranteed when working with a contractor. For all these qualities and more we decided to go with them for the project and never regretted that decision!

Throughout the 5.5 month project Bevan called regularly with updates and photos of the progress. He also was quick to surface any unexpected issues found during demolition and suggest a variety of different solutions. He also did a great job keeping the peace with our neighbours, which anyone who has done a large scale renovation knows can be a tricky situation. My husband and I also came up with new ideas and add-ons as the project was underway and Bevan always found a way to accommodate these change requests and provide us timely estimates on any new scope of work.

Not only was Bevan's team super easy to work with and get a hold of, Bevan also ensured our project ran as quickly and efficiently as possible. This was extra important in our case since I found out I was pregnant with our first child a few months before the project kicked off. Bevan knew we had a hard deadline with the baby's arrival and managed to work his magic and get us home to a fully functioning home a few weeks after her birth! This even required him to drive all the way to Mississauga the day before we moved back to pick up a piece so we could have a working sink on the main floor (a must for any parent!).

Now that we have been back at home for three months now we can say with confidence we are so happy with the quality of work from Bevan and his team, too! If you want an honest, knowledgeable, communicative and collaborative team we highly recommend Juniper Group!

Window removal and storage

We needed several windows carefully removed and stored in preparation for a masonry company to rebuild our porch. Because we werent purchasing new windows, most companies wouldnt even give us a quote. Bevan Kanter was happy to help. He and his crew were pleasant, hard working, and efficient. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend this company.

Simple Pergola Structure

Bevan and his team were professional, prompt, and did excellent work. This was a small job compared to the kind of work they are capable of and we are glad we met them and hope to work with them again for larger jobs!

Re-building a flooded basement

After waterproofing the walls we had to reframe the walls, rebuild the fireplace, replace the electrical, insulate, paint, fix windows, etc. We were given an end date and they beat it by 2 weeks. What I particularly liked was how they co-ordinated the trades in and out. A job well done.
Photos show the fireplace close to end of job.

Main floor renovation for first time home owners

My husband and I had never gone through a home renovation before, so we were intimidated by the process, and nervous after hearing about all the stress and horror stories from other people's experiences. We also had a unique situation as my husband is quite handy and wanted to do part of the renovation himself.
The renovation wasn't small as it included our whole main floor: new floors, ceiling, plumbing, electric, brand new kitchen, new stairs.
Bevan was friendly and welcoming from the get-go. He was supportive of our desire to do part of the reno and was also very helpful with finding ways we could save on costs, since our budget was tight. Throughout the process he was in touch on a regular basis and constantly in communication, giving us updates and taking time to explain things to us and talk through big decisions together. I always felt like he was available and there to work through any challenges that came our way.
We are so happy with how our main floor turned out - it's a completely different space from what we started with!
We'd recommend working with Bevan and his team!
