David had previously renovated my sister’s home, and based on her glowing recommendation, we knew we were in good hands. From the start, David proved to be not only reliable and responsible but also incredibly thoughtful and budget-conscious. > He truly took our financial constraints to heart and worked closely with us to find creative solutions that met our vision without exceeding our budget. The tradespeople he brought in were equally professional, skilled, and kind, which was especially important since we lived in the house throughout much of the renovation. Having trustworthy, considerate people around our family made the process so much easier. > > Anytime we encountered a challenge, David worked hard to resolve it in a way that didn’t compromise quality or strain our finances. Even after the project was completed, David remained responsive and quick to address any questions or small adjustments we needed. It’s clear that he takes pride in his work and stands by it, which gave us great peace of mind. > > We wholeheartedly recommend David and Renovation Science to anyone considering a home renovation! **★★★★★ — David MacKenzie, Oct. 2023** > It was great working with David on the re-pipe and small renovation of our townhouse. We replaced poly-b pipes, replaced a tub, tile, floor, and vanity, as well as a few other small items throughout the home. The trades were on time and the project was done without delays. David’s carpenters were especially professional and cleaned up after they were done each day. David was a great communicator and brought the project in on the projected budget. We would hire him again and recommend him. **★★★★★ — Anne, Oct. 2023** > David and his team at Renovation Science did an amazing job of completing the fairly ambitious renovation of our 42 year old townhome. The main floor of our home was taken back to the studs, interior walls removed, floors levelled, new support beam installed and footings poured in the basement. > > The kitchen and dining area was redesigned with a new beverage centre. New gas fireplace and stone surround, new electrical panel, wiring, plumbing and new on-demand tankless water heater. > > We also had additional work completed in other areas of the home, laundry room was reconfigured, bathrooms upgraded, tiling, new doors, new wood flooring and painting throughout the home. > > David was patient and accommodating with the add-on work that occurred, and offered creative solutions to the design and finishings. David managed the required permits, was on-site daily, coordinated the contractors, and communicated frequently on all aspects of the project. We received detailed invoices and knew at every step what our costs were. > > The on-site supervisor Ronnie was exemplary, crew and sub-contractors were friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The expertise and attention to the details showed in every aspect of the work completed. > > One year later we are still overjoyed and thrilled with the work completed. We love the functionality and comfort of what now looks like a “new” house. We frequently receive many compliments on our home and would highly recommend David and his team at Renovation Science for any large or small project you may be considering. **Comment from Renovation Science:** > We enjoyed working with you on this interesting and rewarding project. > Thank you, Anne! **★★★★★ — Noel Mendoza, Sept. 2023** > Recently we had the majority of the second floor of our house renovated by Renovation Science. Dave and his team of contractors worked diligently in making sure our design needs were met, completed on time and within our budget. The quality of workmanship on the renovation was excellent and any variances were remedied and fixed in a timely manner. In particular, we really appreciated Dave taking the time to design a feature barn door for the master ensuite which was functional and nicely tied in the clean lines of the master bedroom. We have received many compliments from friends on how clean, refreshed and contemporary our new bathrooms, bedrooms and other living space now look on our 2nd floor. > > We would highly recommend Dave Martin to anyone planning to renovate their homes in the future. He is very trustworthy, reliable, dependable and professional in all aspects of his work. > > Noel and May **★★★★★ — HU-974772578, Feb. 2022** > Renovation Science, with its President David Martin, is a highly skilled, efficient and reliable renovation company. We were fortunate to cross paths with David and the Job Supervisor, Ronnie, last Spring when we were considering renovating our kitchen. They took in all our thoughts, possibilities … and limitations, and provided a detailed prospect for re-doing the space within our budget and expectations. > > As the work commenced we found, time and again, the crew went out of their way to minimize disruption and eliminate mess. David managed the overall operation, was regularly on-site, arranged sub-contracting where needed and performed the electrical upgrading himself. Also, we received periodic reports / accounts from David which recorded every cost, to date, and the purpose of it. We were always clear as to what was underway, how and when it would be completed and its cost. All costs were kept within the original estimate and plan. As a result, our renovation was completed on time, on target and with no surprises. > > At the same time, our external back stairs had deteriorated with age, so David and Ronnie made the time to rebuild the stairs as well. They’re as solid as they come. I know this as I’ve done my own share of building and renovating. > > We first encountered David because our next door neighbour was having his kitchen redone and we were curious about his experience; hence, our introduction to the Renovation Science team. We can now report our own parallel success along with our neighbour’s project, which was much more challenging structurally than ours. Interestingly, our kitchen was a completely different style (country cottage look) than our neighbour’s streamlined and modern “chef’s kitchen”. David was easily able to understand our different visions and transform them into reality. > > In short, we cannot recommend Renovation Science, David Martin and his crew more highly. Given the stories we’d heard about renovations going sideways, we were leery about taking this on. We needn’t have been. Renovation Science was, and is, on top of every step along the way. > > -- > Chris Kelly > Vancouver **★★★★★ — mitch ma, May 2021** > David and his team, Ronnie and Thomas, did a great job on our kitchen renovation. They were knowledgeable, conscientious and meticulous about details. The day's work always began as scheduled and when necessary, work continued on the occasional weekend in order to stay on schedule. > When a cabinet measurement overlooked the placement of a ceiling pot light, David came the next day, a Saturday, to reposition the existing pot light and install an additional one. This is the care and attention to detail that one can expect from Renovation Science. > Communication was excellent and there was never any doubt as to the progress or status of the project. > Our job was a fairly small one by Renovation Science standards, but we never felt treated like a "side project" because of this. > Timelines were adhered to and the kitchen was completed on time and under budget. > You can expect a job well-done at a very fair price and with no drama or stress. > We have no hesitation in recommending Renovation Science for your next home renovation big or small. **Comment from Renovation Science:** > It was a pleasure working with you to upgrade the kitchen in your beautiful home! **★★★★★ — Julie M, Nov. 2020** > Renovation Science lives up to and exceeds their values of honesty, professionalism, and integrity. Our kitchen renovation was on time, under budget, and the results are outstanding. David's team, in particular, his Ron, who oversaw the daily workings of the project, were knowledgeable, helpful, and patient, on top of doing excellent work. David was a constant presence on our worksite, and always available to answer calls, clarify plans and guide us through our first big renovation project. I highly recommend using Renovation Science if you want to work with a company that lives up to its promises. **★★★★★ — Gabriela Sincraian, Aug. 2020** > It was a real pleasure to work with David and Renovation Science. He is very professional and truly works with his clients to understand their needs and wishes. He gave us excellent ideas while at the same time taking our opinions into account. The team was super-efficient and finished everything within the timeline they committed to. The quality of their work was impressive, they went above and beyond our expectations. We had to split the project into two phases due to the COVID situation and David accommodated this beautifully. We love our new home and we are looking forward to it being finished next year. **★★★★★ — Jill G., July 2020** > I recently had my bathroom completely renovated by Renovation Science. I am very happy with both the results and with the easy, clear, and timely communication with everyone during the process. I would not hesitate to recommend them. **★★★★★ — Russell Hopkins, March 2020** > Renovation Science recently completed a full renovation of our kitchen, master bedroom ensuite and other areas. We were very satisfied with all aspects of the project from start to finish. David, Ronald and all the sub-contractors involved were always professional, highly skilled and, importantly for us, super easy to deal with. Throughout the project, they were responsive to our sometimes evolving requirements and two-way communication was always excellent. > > As part of the renovation, we took the opportunity to implement a comprehensive home automation system, which they were very supportive of, and the result has been outstanding. > > Overall, we enjoyed dealing with David and his team, and are delighted with the result. We have no hesitation in recommending Renovation Science for any type of home renovation project. **Comment from Renovation Science:** > Thank you Russell! It was great working with you. We're very happy to have been able to help you create your ideal home. **★★★★★ — Mall Vesik, Oct. 2019** > David’s professionalism make him a pleasure to work with. A definite ten out of ten. He is punctual and responds quickly to phone and email queries. Not only is he creative, he is also practical and realistic in his recommendations. Work and scheduling by various trades went smoothly and all work was completed to a high standard. Some custom design and manufacture of venting was needed to adapt a new down-vented range fan to existing cabinets. This was no problem for David. He made drawings for some custom metal fabricating and all pieces fit perfectly. Thank you, David, for my gorgeous kitchen and powder room – all completed to original estimate. **Comment from Renovation Science:** > Thank you Mall. It was a pleasure working with you! **★★★★★ — Sandy Jones, July 2019** > Wow, were we ever lucky to happen upon a renovation contractor such as David Martin of RSC Renovation Science Corp. David was prompt and professional in assessing our needs and in giving us a quote that was inclusive and accurate. His timelines with his trades people meshed seamlessly with our kitchen renovation and cabinetry installation. David was easy to communicate with and made helpful observations and suggestions. We won't hesitate to call upon David again for any future renovations! ## Selected projects - [Burnaby Condo Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/burnaby-condo-renovation-pj-vj~2770390) - Location: Burnaby, BC - Photos: 20 - [Kitchens](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchens-pj-vj~2378144) - Location: Coquitlam, BC - Photos: 6 - [Modern Bathroom Update](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-bathroom-update-pj-vj~1815907) - Location: Burnaby, BC - Photos: 17 - [Sunshine Hills Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunshine-hills-bathroom-pj-vj~2514645) - Location: Delta, BC - Photos: 4 - [Indirect Ceiling Lighting for Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/indirect-ceiling-lighting-for-living-room-pj-vj~1675554) - Location: Burnaby, BC - Photos: 11 - Description: A living room update project including indirect LED lighting around the ceiling perimeter and a new mantle and shelving around the fireplace - [Sunshine hills deck](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunshine-hills-deck-pj-vj~2362050) - Location: Delta, BC - Photos: 2 - Description: A multicolour composite deck with wrap-around stairs to a stone paver patio - [Bathrooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bathrooms-pj-vj~2390038) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 1 - [Burnaby townhouse open concept](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/burnaby-townhouse-open-concept-pj-vj~7539372) - Location: Burnaby, BC - Photos: 6 - [Kitsilano Condo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitsilano-condo-pj-vj~6383708) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 5 - [Fairview traditional bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fairview-traditional-bathroom-pj-vj~6278508) - Location: Vancouver, British Columbia - Photos: 4 - Description: Updated 4 piece bathroom in a special traditional style - [Fairview contemporary bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fairview-contemporary-bathroom-pj-vj~6278504) - Location: Vancouver, British Columbia - Photos: 4 - Description: Updated 4 piece bathroom - [West end bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/west-end-bathroom-pj-vj~6019842) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 3 - [Seymour home renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/seymour-home-renovation-pj-vj~6008718) - Location: North Vancouver, BC - Photos: 21 - [Burnaby kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/burnaby-kitchen-pj-vj~5822434) - Location: Burnaby, BC - Photos: 3 - [Burnaby sunroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/burnaby-sunroom-pj-vj~5541778) - Location: Burnaby, BC - Photos: 1 - [Vancouver townhouse kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vancouver-townhouse-kitchen-pj-vj~5541769) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 3 - [Pitt Meadows Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pitt-meadows-kitchen-pj-vj~5540361) - Location: Pitt Meadows, BC - Photos: 4 - [Burnaby sidewalk and stone stairs](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/burnaby-sidewalk-and-stone-stairs-pj-vj~5540359) - Location: Burnaby, BC - Photos: 1 - [South Surrey Kitchen and Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/south-surrey-kitchen-and-living-room-pj-vj~5540350) - Location: Surrey, BC - Photos: 4 - [Point Grey Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/point-grey-bathroom-pj-vj~5540343) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 5 [See all 21 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/kitchen-and-bath-remodelers/renovation-science-pfvwus-pf~379533664) ## Ideabooks - [mendoza](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/138784931/list/mendoza) — 10 ideas - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/64782023/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [baseboards](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/111479717/list/baseboards) — 1 idea - [Talon](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/102506772/list/talon) — 9 ideas - [david4258's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/64782024/list/david4258-s-ideas) — 7 ideas [See all 5 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/davidrenovationscience) ## Community Q&A **Q: under toilet paper** *(in Photo Questions)* what is the open cabinet under toilet paper dispenser?
