This place now is so beautiful, so cozy and warm…
Before the renovation, this place definitely needed a lot of work. It required gutting, redoing the floors, fixing the drywall—basically, everything about this store needed a complete overhaul to transform it into the nail salon it is today. Now, this place is incredibly beautiful, cozy, and warm—it’s exactly what we had envisioned.
I entered this space with a vision of creating a doll-like atmosphere, and that’s precisely what we achieved. Every idea I had, every Pinterest picture I found, turned out to be just what I had wanted for the store. The result is stunning, resembling a dollhouse exactly as I had imagined. We discovered the Bradburn Group through a Google search while exploring local contractors. Once we saw Bradburn’s work, we were thoroughly impressed and decided to reach out to them to discuss our space. The reason we opted for the Bradburn Group was our need for skilled professionals who could bring our store to life according to our desires.
We explored various options, but we didn’t get the right feeling from other places until we came across Bradburn’s. It was at that point we realized they were the perfect fit for us. Our experience with Bradburn’s was truly exceptional. We began the project right at the beginning of the pandemic, a situation we had no way of foreseeing. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, the project took a bit longer, but the results were flawless. Finding contractors who could continue working during COVID would have been much more difficult, but thanks to Bradburn’s, they stepped in and saved our store, delivering exceptional work. We’re thrilled with everything they accomplished, especially considering the difficulties posed by COVID. They were there throughout the toughest times, and they delivered beyond our expectations.

Envisioning Elegance: The Dramatic Transformation of Dundurn St. Nail Salon

Client Background
For the Dundurn St. nail salon renovation project by Bradburn Group of Companies, a detailed room-by-room approach was taken to transform a significantly dated and dysfunctional space into a stunning, functional, and theme-consistent nail salon. The owners envisioned a dollhouse-themed atmosphere, requiring a complete overhaul of the existing interiors to bring their unique vision to life.
Challenge
The Dundurn St. nail salon faced substantial challenges due to its outdated and dysfunctional design, which failed to reflect the owner’s vision for a high-end environment. The space required a complete overhaul, including gutting the interiors, replacing the flooring, and repairing drywall, to transform it into a modern and inviting salon. This comprehensive renovation needed to address not only the aesthetic aspects but also enhance the functional flow of the space to create an efficient and welcoming atmosphere for clients.
