Niche reDesign

We very much enjoyed working with Sylvia and we are happy that we chose her company to work with on our kitchen renovation. She is professional, pushed back when needed, and always had budget in mind. This was much appreciated as these projects can get out of hand in a hurry. We did go over our original budget however not without our conscience (Sylvia) saying “are you sure…”. We absolutely love the space. It’s surreal how much it has changed and how good it makes us feel. Sylvia helped us realize this. We highly recommend her!

Sylvia redesigned and managed my full kitchen renovation this summer. It was a pleasure to work with Sylvia and her contracting team, Tyvan, on this project. This is a smaller, older home in Garrison Woods so the design needed to be respectful of the vintage of the home while creating a clean and functional space. Sylvia communicated well, followed up and understood my vision. She was incredibly efficient with my time. There were a few surprises once the studs were fully exposed but these were also addressed efficiently and reasonably. Sylvia’s experience from a design and project management perspective was invaluable. I would highly recommend Sylvia. Lynn Redford

It has been a pleasure working with Sylvia and her team at Niche reDesign. Sylvia always took the time to talk through design options and was transparent with budget & timelines. My master ensuite now has a tranquil and spa-like feel thanks to better use of space and a calming colour palate. It’s beyond gorgeous! Sylvia helped transform many rooms of my house by selecting new furniture, paint colours, and artwork. I am thrilled with the outcome and will definitely call her again for my next renovation. ~ Kristi

Thinking about doing a reno? When it comes to top notch quality and service you can't beat Sylvia from Niche reDesign and her crew. To say we are pleased with the outcome is an understatement. The quality and craftsmanship is second to none. Doing a reno can be extremely overwhelming for many. For us, having Sylvia lead the project put our mind at ease. From start to finish, Sylvia was meticulous, professional, timely, and demonstrated great knowledge and attention to detail. From the initial meeting she was able to take our vision and provided feedback, options and suggestions and made it even better. The final outcome far exceeds our expectations! At the start of the project we were provided with a detailed calendar outlining the timeline of what to expect on each day of the the project. This was extremely helpful so we knew what to expect and there was no surprises. The trades were extremely professional, friendly and treated our home with respect and always cleaned up after themselves Now that the project is completed we feel like we have a brand new home and there isn't one thing we would change. We can't thank Sylvia and her crew enough!!!

Sylvia was an absolute dream to work with! She listened to what I wanted and gave me a kitchen even nicer than I ever could have wished for. Her sense of style mixed with organization know-how allowed her to design a kitchen with numerous pots and pans drawers so I would not have to reach up and a pantry big enough to hold my extra fridge and stand up freezer. In 3.5 weeks I got a new kitchen, new pantry, a new office, a new floor on the entire main level, new knocked down ceiling and new lighting fixtures. Everyone that sees the before and after cannot believe how quickly Sylvia was able to accomplish this and the quality of the workmanship. We got a calendar on Day One so we would know what to expect and like clockwork the schedule was followed and the job was completed. If you want an incredible job with a friendly, knowledgable project manager I highly recommend that you call Sylvia.

Niche reDesign did an amazing job keeping the project (and me) on track despite all the challenges associated with a complicated project as well as Covid-19. The final result was great! I am very satisfied with both the process and the outcome. Richard

Having done many renovations through the years on my own, the most stressful part for me, is the scheduling. Sylvia has a vetted group of tradesmen (who were all wonderful and speak so highly of her), and razor sharp timelines. The stress was totally taken out of this project. Having design advice and wonderful renderings to work with were pure icing on the cake for me. Make no mistake, doing a renovation takes time in planning, preparation, and cleaning. But this experience has been by far the best one. Time, budget, and outcome all exceeded my expectations.

Sylvia did an excellent job with our basement reno. This is our first big reno and being fairly new to Calgary, we weren’t quite sure what to expect when we looked for contractors. Sylvia made us feel comfortable from the start, and was honest and upfront which we greatly appreciated. She kept to our budget and gave us great advice on how to maximize our assets. The guys working on site were very respectful of our space and did an excellent job cleaning up after themselves. I’ll definitely be looking out for Sylvia again for our next project.

We love our new home! Sylvia was able to take our ideas and wants and transform them into something amazing. We highly recommend Sylvia for any design needs.

Working with Sylvia and her team was an absolute pleasure. Sylvia was professional, knowledgeable and committed to getting the job done well, on budget and on time. She provided the right level of advice and direction while taking my personal preferences into account. The project included updating the main level flooring, stairs and upper landing, with replacement of baseboards and trim from oak to a fresh white. Sylvia’s choice of wall paint color was bang on. I just love it!! A dated staircase railing got a new look and I’m thrilled with my herringbone marble fireplace and simple surround. The lower bathroom also received a new toilet, faucet, vanity lighting and mirror. Corey (flooring) and Brent (painting) were fantastic. They always arrived on time and left our space clean before leaving each day. Great work and attention to detail. They were very considerate and made this 18 day project fly by!

Sylvia‘s work was on time reliable detailed and addressed all of the important and critical issues associated with the project. She was always innovative imaginative and positively oriented towards giving me the best possible result in my renovation. I highly recommend her.

We can’t say enough about how important it was to seek the interior design assistance of a professional. We jumped on the tiny house bandwagon and built a two level structure in a very remote area of Eastern Canada. After living in spaces that were 2000+ square feet, moving into a “comfortable” 800 square foot home is easier said, than done. Niche reDesign helped us maximize every inch of available space to accommodate all of the necessities without a look of congestion. “Look” is the key word here, as Niche reDesign not only delivered precise interior construction plans, but sourced every available product in the market place to fit the motif we were striving for in our one of a kind home. The house renderings generated by Niche reDesign was an immediate confirmation that we would love our special space when it was complete. Working on a project that was sight-unseen, required the competencies of a knowledgeable and gifted designer. Niche redesign exceeded our expectations.
