As our construction manager, Westmark coordinated our “base building” re-framing with our new tenants’s interior construction team. The complicated renovation of the tired post and beam structure included extensive seismic upgrades and the addition of a structurally engineered mezzanine floor. > Challenges faced by Westmark included the handling and coordination of various regulatory agencies, the extensive workplace safety considerations related to working out over the water, the intensity of code upgrade requirements and related close interaction with engineers and our coordinating professionals. In all respects, Westmark met the challenges professionally and moved the project to successful conclusion. > We chose Westmark for our project because their reputation as a quality builder precedes them. You have our recommendation by way of this testimonial. > > Yours truly, > Stones Marine Centre Inc. > Marc Stones CPA, CA **★★★★★ — Owen Carr, April 2015** > In the spring of 2013 Westmark completed a significant commercial renovation for us – transforming our space into a beautiful, professional and upscale salon and wellness centre where our clients come to enjoy aesthetic services, massage therapy, acupuncture and other forms of holistic health and beauty services. > We are extremely proud of our space, and the feedback from clients, employees and practitioners has been overwhelmingly positive. > Working with Westmark was a great experience – we were novices in the construction game and Chris, Eldon, Duncan and the rest of the team were very knowledgeable, solution oriented, and ensured every detail was right, on time and on budget. The quality of the finished product is reflective of the professionalism of the contractor – and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Westmark to anyone looking for commercial or residential construction services. **★★★★★ — j\_leslie, April 2015** > A day doesn't go by that we don't express the enjoyment and pleasure we get out of our Westmark home.Since we built our home we have reflected on the experience of home building and have shared that experience with many people.Consistently we have been asked"What would you change,now that you are living in your home" and "Would you ever build again?" > The answers to these questions truly reflect the positive experience we had working with Westmark Construction. > Firstly,we would not make any significant changes to our home as it is personalized to reflect our family.We had adequate time to make well thought-out decisions about all aspects of the house and were provided with the guidance and expertise needed to make these decisions.We always knew help was available when we needed it and that we could call Chris at anytime,no matter how small the question.Second of all we would build again someday because we enjoyed the process so much! Having said that though we plan to retire in this house because we planned for 25 years minimum of living here!We could close off the top floor and live on the main floor quite comfortably!The point I would like to make is that the building experience, though emotional and demanding was a totally positive one.I found the process fascinating and never felt"in the dark" as to how things were progressing.I was pleased to be highly involved and found that Chris made sure we were happy at every stage before going on to the next.This degree of personalization and customer service is often lacking in the business world today. > Chris surrounds himself with excellent trades people which is difficult in these competitive time.His people work very hard to uphold the high degree of service and specialization that sets Westmark apart from so many other building experiences we have witnessed in Nanaimo and other parts of Canada. > Lastly we would like to congratulate Westmark for delivering a top quality,personalized home bulding experience.We have no hesitations recommending Westmark for any custom home project. **★★★★★ — andreas\_hinkkala, April 2015** > This was our first commercial building purchase, and our first use of a contractor / developer for construction needs. As with many people, we were a little uncertain how everything would work, and we've heard of al the stories of construction delays and cost overruns that happen within the contracting industry. This was not the case with Westmark however. We were very pleased with every part of this process, and Westmark Construction handled every one of our requests in a professional and timely manner. In the end, the office was built within a week or so of the expected completion date, and we were under the estimated budget. Any final details were dealt with very quickly and we are extremely satisfied with the finished work. Going forward, Westmark Construction will be our go-to firm for any future projects. **★★★★★ — airliep, April 2015** > From the first shovel in the ground to the last doorknob installed, Westmark did an exemplenary job of creating our dream home. All trades were fastidious in their work and seemed genuinely committed to making sure we were happy. The office staff always responded immediately to questions or concerns, and kept us up to date with detailed progress reports. This was especially welcome as we were building from a distance. Everyone who has seen our home has commented on the quality of the workmanship . We would not hesitate to recommend Westmark Construction > Airlie and Ross **★★★★★ — mldigney, March 2015** > We contracted Westmark Construction to build our custom home in 2004. It was a complicated architectural design which Westmark approached professionally and confidently. They used well qualified and highly competent subcontractors, quality materials and were fully available to discuss the plans with the architect. Construction work began at the end of 2004 and finished on time and within budgetary parameters in 2005. > > We can only speak highly of the whole construction process; from communication with the office and the construction foreman; to the obvious pride and attention to detail of the various subcontractors regarding their work; the quality of the materials used; the timeliness of the process; the forewarning of necessary decisions on our part; as well as follow up with Westmark once the project was completed. Some people will tell you that building a home can be a stressful and agonizing process however our experience was quite the opposite due to our choice of a high quality contractor. Westmark made the whole process very positive. > > We would highly and without hesitation recommend Westmark Construction to any individuals building a custom home. **★★★★★ — tlc\_campbell, Feb. 2015** > Working with Westmark has been an absolute positive experience. We are grateful for their quality of workmanship (from top notch tradespeople and obvious excellent management in both field crew and office staff), and their attention to detail and consistency in delivering on promised timelines and projected budget parameters. > Aside from quality and timeliness, perhaps one of the other most impressive aspects about the Westmark experience is their valued response to various requests throughout the process. In addition to providing us with great advice and insight, they were responsive to various inquiries from others including, for example, designers, engineers, and city planners. It was clear in these meetings that Westmark is highly regarded by such other professionals in the community, and is well known for their expertise in development, and in providing quality construction. This level of professionalism, in maintaining a high level of service and responsivity throughout the whole process, and in providing quality workmanship, further secured our confidence in Wesmtark’s team, and trust in their commitment to quality and excellence. > We wish to thank Westmark for their work on Portsmouth Professional Centre. **★★★★★ — Jacquie Robinson, Feb. 2015** > When we moved to Nanaimo nineteen years ago and started to look for houses, Westmark Homes always stood out with their exceptional quality, excellent workmanship, and beautiful West Coast designs. > Several years later, we decided to build our home and Westmark Construction was our logical choice. With Chris Lundy and Eldon Bueckert overseeing our project, the building process with Westmark Construction was smooth, efficient and well organized. There was excellent communication with our architect, Dennis Moore and our interior designer, Tracy Higgins. The trades people and staff of Westmark Construction were all first class. Overall, it was a very enjoyable process. > We have now been in our home for fourteen years and our home continues to display its solid construction and superb craftsmanship. We feel we made the right decision in having Westmark Construction build our home and would recommend them without hesitation to build yours. **★★★★★ — mcarrigy, Feb. 2015** > Westmark Construction was chosen for building on our challenging lot and unique home design due to the depth of knowledge the company has with both custom and commercial builds. Throughout the process, communication and accurate accounting were the essential elements that resulted in our home exceeding our high expectations. We have now been enjoying living there for 4 years and are pleased with the level of the quality and the attention to after build service that we have been receiving from the Westmark Team. > > Our hope is to have Westmark Construction with us as our home evolves and we anticipate using their expertise for future projects. **★★★★★ — susanlwebster, Jan. 2015** > We hired Westmark Construction to build a custom home for our family. We were very impressed with the quality of workmanship and the service from the entire company. We would not hesitate to recommend Westmark Construction and would build with them again if the opportunity presented itself. ## Selected projects - [Glen Oaks Drive Custom Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/glen-oaks-drive-custom-home-pj-vj~5469314) - Location: Nanaimo, BC - Photos: 17 - Description: As a part of The Ridge development, this beautifully designed home on Glen Oaks Drive in North Nanaimo combines modern design with a premier utilization of the natural environment.
