CUSTOMER REVIEWS
Project: New Home Construction, 2 Storey Home (2800sqft), Integrated 2 car garage, Minor Variances Case Approval
“We were referred to Mark through a Toronto area construction manager knowing that our project was to design a new home for us in the Grand Bend area. Our starting point with Mark was a conversation on site to get to know our initial vision, lifestyle and approximate budget. Then using our comments he created a number of home designs to begin refining our thoughts. We achieved a final design of about 4000 sq feet of construction that we were excited to move to the permit stage. Our new home will be located in the country and as a surprise to the local builder, ourselves and Mark we needed to apply for a minor variance. Here Mark shone in handling all the paperwork and attending local meetings 2 hours away. He established a very positive working relationship with the local building department and followed through to the approval. We are now breaking ground thanks to him.
Mark is knowledgeable and creative, detail-oriented and timely, conscientious and very patient. It was a pleasure to have him at our side through this journey. We are happy to highly recommend his services.”

Project: New home construction, 2 Storey Home (3800sqft), Integrated 2 car garage, Conservation authority coordination with Niagara Escarpment Commission
“Lead design, planning, permitting of minimalistic farmhouse in controlled developed zone. Mark H Smith guided our journey to build our new home, from start to finish. From listening to our needs, wants, evaluating options, to concepts, budget realities and all permits. The permitting process was complex being in a special development zone of the Niagara Escarpment. We highly rate Marks professional service, transparent process with the highest governance applied. Yet being personal and easy to deal with.”

Project: Third Storey Addition, Interior & Exterior renovations throughout entire home, Basement Secondary Suite, Minor Variances Case Approval
“Mark is an effective communicator and provided great service from the day I signed up to the day I received my second set of building permits over a year later. Mark came up with creative solutions for the open concept design I wanted as well as the approach I should take with the city in order to start work on the building quicker. Mark was also an invaluable part of the Committee of Adjustments (“CofA”) process. He diligently prepared the case and did a great job of representing my project and he was successful in obtaining a minor variance for the third floor addition and basement apartment portion of the project.”

Project: Second Storey Side Addition, Rear Second Floor Balcony, Interior Alterations, Minor Variances
“I retained Mark to design a 2nd story addition above a tandem garage. Mark efficiently guided through the Committee of Approval and Building Permit process despite a few miscues/delays from the City. Mark is very diligent and through, I would highly recommend his services, in so much that I already have lined him up for another project down the road.”
