Good price and service

We've just finished a big renovation with the help of Rigid Frame Inc., and I can't express enough how much theyve made the whole process easier. They took the stress of coordination and work right off my shoulders. Communication during the design phase was a breeze, and the underpinning was done to such high standards that even the city's inspector noticed and praised it. We're so close to moving in, and I just want to give a huge thanks to the Rigid Frame Builders team for their hard work and dedication around the clock. We really appreciate everything they've done!

Pezhman and Arvin, for your excellent work!

We engaged an architect to develop plans for an extensive interior renovation and second-floor addition. However, after several months of delays, it became clear that the architect lacked the necessary experience and knowledge for a project of this scale.
Through HomeStars, we discovered Rigid Frame Structural Engineers and Architects Inc., and were impressed by their outstanding reviews. We decided to engage Pezhman and Arvin to take over our project, which required significant revisions and corrections. Their quote was reasonable, and they successfully obtained our permit within the promised timeframe.

Both Pezhman and Arvin are skilled architects and structural engineers, providing invaluable assistance throughout the permit and construction processes. Currently, their sister company, Rigid Frame Builders Inc., is managing our construction, and we are very pleased with the progress. We feel confident and satisfied with the direction of our project.
Thank you, Pezhman and Arvin, for your excellent work!

Dear Rita and Sebastien,

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that you’re happy with the condition of your home after our work in Toronto/East York.

We truly appreciate your kind words about Armando. We're glad he has been especially helpful with any small fixes after the completion.

For our readers, we wanted to share this exact email from Rita (the owner):

"Hi Pezhman and Arvin,

We are very happy with the house condition. It is definitely a great upgrade. Armando has been especially helpful these days for any small fix up after the completion. So thank you again.

Take care,

Rita"

The Bedrock of My Dream Home: A Review of Rigid Frame’s Structural and Architectural Brilliance

Adding a second story can feel like adding a whole new chapter to your life, but before you get swept away in the possibilities, you need a foundation literally and figuratively. That's where Rigid Frame stepped in and became the unsung hero of my home expansion project.
From the very first contact, Pezhman instilled confidence. His expertise was evident as he assessed the structural integrity of my home. He didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear; he provided a clear picture of the project's feasibility and, if needed, the reinforcements required. But it wasn't just cold calculations Pezhman presented options and solutions in a way that was easy to understand and empowering.
Pezhman isn't just a structural engineer; he possesses the rare talent of an architect's eye combined with the engineer's mind. This unique skillset was invaluable throughout the entire project. He meticulously evaluated my existing home, not just for structural capacity but also for its potential. They identified areas where the new story could seamlessly integrate with the existing architecture, preserving the home's original character while breathing new life into it.
The permit process can be daunting but having Pezhman's meticulous plans on hand made it a breeze. They anticipated potential revisions from the building department, ensuring a smooth and efficient approval.
Bottom-line, Pezhman is more than just a structural engineer he is a project anchor. His expertise, clear communication, and collaborative spirit were instrumental in turning my dream of a second story into a reality. If you're embarking on a similar journey, look no further Rigid Frame is the bedrock you need for a successful and secure future.

Rigid Frame Renovations: A Masterpiece Transformation!

From the moment we met the dynamic duo behind Rigid Frame Renovations, we knew we were in expert hands. Their combined expertise as structural engineers and architects was evident in every aspect of our home renovation project.

The transformation they achieved on our house is nothing short of remarkable. From the initial concrete work to the final coat of paint, every detail was meticulously planned and executed to perfection. The structural framing was done with precision, ensuring the longevity and durability of our home for years to come.

One of the standout features of our renovation is the stunning garden suite they built on the corner of our lot. Spanning around 850 square feet, the stucco-clad structure is a true work of art. The design seamlessly blends with the existing architecture of our home, creating a cohesive and visually striking aesthetic.

The attention to detail displayed by the Rigid Frame team is truly commendable. Not only did they tackle the major components of the renovation, such as roofing and drywalling, with finesse, but they also excelled in the finer aspects, such as bathroom remodeling and kitchen design. Each room in our house now exudes a sense of warmth and elegance that we never thought possible.

Throughout the entire process, the owners of Rigid Frame were a pleasure to work with. Their professionalism, dedication, and passion for their craft were evident in every interaction. They listened attentively to our ideas and concerns, offering valuable insights and creative solutions every step of the way.

In conclusion, we cannot recommend Rigid Frame Renovations highly enough. If you're looking for a team of experts who will turn your renovation dreams into reality, look no further. With their unique blend of expertise and creativity, Rigid Frame has set a new standard for excellence in the world of home renovations. Thank you, Rigid Frame, for transforming our house into a place we are truly proud to call home!

They carefully went through our wish list and guided us step by step

We discovered Rigid Frame through our neighbor, who hired them for the architectural drawings of their brand-new house. My husband and I, who have three kids, set aside savings for years to bring our imagination to life through a full house gut-down renovation. They carefully went through our wish list and guided us step by step, allowing us to save and maximize the value of our investment for both the design and construction stages. Throughout the process, we realized how time and cost-effective it is to collaborate with a company that provides all architectural, structural engineering, mechanical, and necessary permit drawings. Obtaining the permit from the city was hassle-free and prompt. While their pricing may not be the cheapest, every penny spent was entirely worth it. Currently, Rigid Frame Builders is working on the construction cost estimate for us, and we're hopeful to engage them as our general contractor. Thank you, Rigid Frame, for your outstanding service.
