“Thomas and his team completely renovated our main bathroom and we were very happy with the result. They worked quickly and efficiently and everything was clearly explained in advance, including costs. I highly recommend this company and hope to have them come back in the future for more projects!”
John Donkin Architect Inc.
New & Custom Home Builders in Ottawa
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 13, 2014
“My wife and I interviewed several architects. What we found interesting about John was his unique approach. We knew we would get his full attention and that was exactly what he delivered. Building an infill is tricky. Maximizing natural light and interesting sight lines was a challenge that John was up for. In the end our home is something that we were thrilled with. With time the small but important design details constantly remind us of how special and talented John is. John Donkin has a unique portfolio and provides individual and focused attention to each project.”
