I am pleased to provide this letter of reference for you after the completion of our garage membrane waterproofing restoration project completed by Taylor Construction. This was a very significant project for Copperstone Resort in terms of the cost to the owners, the importance of having it done properly to stop any damage to our underground parking and building structures, and to minimize the impact to our guests and operations being a vacation resort. Dealing with you and the onsite construction team was a real pleasure for us and the operations personnel at Copperstone. The end result with the changes to the landscaping that you helped us design really looks great - we get a lot of compliments on the new look.
You folks demonstrated a real dedication to getting the job done efficiently and in a high quality manner. You communicated well with us so we always knew what was going on and could work together to resolve issues as they arose finding solutions that kept things on track and on budget. You also worked hard to keep the work site as clean as possible and were flexible to schedule things to minimize disruptions to our guests. The other thing we really appreciated was when we did find some unexpected structural damage or something in poor repair you provided us with reasonable quotes to add these items into our scope of work and get them fixed while you were onsite so we did not have to schedule work at a later time at greater expense. While I hope we do not have any building envelope issues that we need you for in the near future, we certainly would not hesitate to work with you again if we did! Thanks very much for a successful project.
Taylor Construction is an extremely competent and professional renovation company. I was relieved when Taylor signed onto the project because I had gone through the laborious process of interviewing at least five other companies that did not have the expertise to pull off the second-floor deck renovation.
Taylor’s employees are extremely professional and competent. They get the job done on time and always leave the worksite clean and tidy at the end of each day.
The site supervisor and management team were very professional and knowledgeable and available to me at all times.
The project manager took the time to explain the stages of the renovation therefore I was confident of the completion of the project in a timely manner as the renovation progressed.
Their in-house employees and their contracted trades were all extremely professional, willing to answer any questions you have, and again did an excellent job with an attention to detail and a clean work site at the end of the day.
I would not hesitate to use Taylor construction for any future projects.
We have nothing but positive things to say about Taylor Construction and their team. From the very first time we met them until the final touches were placed on our project, their service and quality of work was top notch. We have dealt with multiple contractors, trades, construction people over the years and they have all been the same stereotype. They don't really care about quality work, don't show up on time (or at all), don't get back to you etc etc. Taylor construction puts all those stereotypes to rest. They ACTUALLY care about their work and the quality that goes into it, they answer their phones, they call you back, they email you back (more often than not within an hour!) and the list goes on.
We felt so fortunate to have found them and would hire them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone and everyone. A special thanks goes out to Darcy who oversaw our project and whose dedication to his work and communication throughout was so refreshing and appreciated!! Thanks so much!!
Taylor Construction performed a full window replacement, roofing replacement and envelope detailing rehabilitation on the condominium complex, Oakridge Gardens, in south Calgary. Morrison Hershfield was the building Envelope Consultant, engaged to develop and oversee a rehabilitation program for the complex, my role was Project Manager. Occupied condominium rehabilitation work is complex and sensitive, due to the nature of the work and financial implications on private owners. I found Taylor to be professional, well organized, diligent in their work, and sensitive to the owner group. I would be happy to work with Taylor Construction in the future and would recommend them to others.
In 2013, Pontefino II Condominium Corporation engaged EllisDon Project Management Services to provide owner representation on an exterior remediation project. This project included demolition, metal roofing, EIFS, parkade waterproofing, and concrete work. The General Contractor to whom this bid was awarded to was Taylor Construction. This large scale remediation project required special attention to the many building envelope details, public safety, scheduling, and communication with both the unit owners and board members.
In addition to having knowledgeable and experienced staff, Taylor placed a high priority on customer/client relations. Whether it was pricing, scheduling changes, site reports, or general correspondence at Taylor was highly proficient in circulating any required documentation with professionalism, speed and diligence.
Taylor's subtrades also conformed to Taylor's high standard of quality and professionalism, giving the client added assurance. It is rare for an exterior renovation project of this size to be completed without any major obstacles. We found Taylor was able to surmount these challenges through their high standards and experience. We look forward to continuing our working relationship with Taylor for the years to come. We encourage anyone undertaking a construction project, new build or remediation, big or small to heavily consider Taylor.
Taylor Construction [Taylor] was hired by the condominium corporation to remove and install 261 windows at rosewood estates, a 14-story high-rise building located in the beltline area of the city. Work commenced in the latter part of September 2008, and is now nearing completion. Throughout the entire project work has proceeded in a professional workman like manner with few work disruptions or issues between the parties. Weather did slow the project from time to time.
The corporation has found both Taylor and its staff to be cognizant of the problems of dealing with resident owners of condominium units. The onsite personnel were respectful of both the corporation's and the owners' concerns. Taylor made every attempt to minimize the disruption to the owners throughout the process. This extended from the removal of the existing windows, the installation of the new windows, the installation of the new casing and all necessary painting. The corporation's property was fully protected at all times. This included the use of protective materials on both the roof of the parkade as well as the upper roof level so as not to damage the roofing in either location. As far as possible tarps were used to minimize the spread of waste in the planter and lawn areas. Job site waste was deposited into a bin that was removed on a regular basis as it was filled. Waste bins were permitted both in the back lane in excess parking stalls and on the front lawn. A storage bin for safe keeping of window supplies was also permitted. As the existing windows were removed and replaced, the new window casings were installed. Painting of the window frames and the casings quickly followed in accordance with a predetermined schedule. Any issues that arose between the parties during the construction process were quickly resolved to the satisfaction of all concerned.
A resident owner, who was familiar with the work Taylor had done, or were doing, for Boardwalk, referred the company to the corporation as a possible contractor. Before making a final decision as to whether to retain the services of Taylor construction the corporation was able to view several projects with which they were associated. Taylor was highly recommended as a competent and reliable contractor. The condominium corporation has been very impressed with the manner in, which the window replacement project proceeded, and the help and assistance it has received from Taylor and its sub-trades. Individual owners have been extremely pleased with the manner in which the work in their unit was completed.
