The Ridgeview Project

Our house before the renovation, I guess, was starting to look a little bit old and tired. The house is about 50 years old, and many of the rooms were still in their original state from either the initial construction or the previous owner’s modifications. So it was indeed showing signs of wear. It was time for a renovation to bring it into the 21st century. In my opinion, the renovated space aligns with what we always envisioned for this house. As I mentioned, the house is 56 years old, and areas like the kitchen and the bathroom really needed an update to match the style of our home.

We are very content and pleased with the outcome. It’s exactly what we had in mind, especially in terms of aesthetics. The new design is sleek, modern, and open, with more natural light flowing in. We’re particularly fond of the colour scheme, and the cabinets are beautifully done. It’s generally best to rely on word-of-mouth recommendations from people who have worked with a contractor before. That’s how we started with Bradburn, and we never regretted that decision, did we?

Our initial meeting with Jay was well-organized, and they truly listened to our preferences. He managed to address all our queries and put us at ease. Throughout the process, Zach provided constant support. In instances where issues arose (which can be expected in an older house), Zach’s reassuring explanations guided us through, and everything unfolded just as he described.

The online portal played a crucial role. Effective communication is paramount in any project, especially a renovation. The portal offered a visual progression with daily pictures showing the work completed. It featured a calendar outlining who would be working on specific days. This level of organization and reliability was a cornerstone. We always felt informed about the status of our kitchen and bathroom. Regular updates were the norm, and if any frustrations or uncertainties arose, the team at Bradburn promptly responded. We never had to wait more than a day for a response.

We’ve had experiences with renovations in the past, including a bathroom remodel about seven or eight years ago. While it improved things slightly, it never reached the level we desired. It remained a bathtub shower setup. I recall telling Sylvia that I feared I might accidentally crash through the shower door while stepping over the bathtub’s edge. This new bathroom, on the other hand, fulfills everything we envisioned for this house, especially for a master bathroom.

As for our favorite part of the renovation, mine is definitely the kitchen. The previous layout and organization were lacking. Darryl now jokes that I’ll have to start cooking more often. However, I won’t hold my breath for that to happen. Overall, I would wholeheartedly recommend them. Right from the beginning, it’s evident they have a capable team, including skilled project managers. While communication has been a strong point, the quality of their work is also commendable. All in all, they have met our expectations and more. So, we would readily recommend them to anyone. Having dealt with contractors before, we understand the significance of communication and delivering on promises. Bradburn excels in both aspects, and we’re truly satisfied with the outcome. Additionally, all the tradespeople they brought in were highly professional, consistently showed up, and their work quality was outstanding.
