"We would like to commend Kon-Strux and all the people involved with our recent renovation. We are very pleased with all aspects of the project. From the beginning, renovations were done as we requested and where structural limitations forced any variance, the situation was explained fully and very satisfactory solutions were completed. Your "trades people" were of very high caliber and took pride in completing their tasks with skill and quality workmanship. They were all pleasant to deal with…..Our Project Manager did an excellent job of keeping us advised of progress, problem areas and proposed solutions. He even sent pictures via email of work-in-progress when we were out of town. He inspired a sense of confidence that made it much easier for us to be away as planned. Our thanks to one and all for presenting us with an excellent renovation product. We would be happy to recommend Kon-Strux."

2008 SAM AWARD FINALIST PROJECT - "...Not only did you accomplish, on time, what was an audacious goal in the heated construction environment in Calgary at that time, you did so with an attention to detail that I have never seen before in the half dozen renovation or construction projects I have undertaken in my life..."
2008 SAM AWARD FINALIST PROJECT - "I wanted to let you know in writing just how much I appreciate the terrific job you and the Kon-Strux team have done in the complete renovation of my condo at Prince's Island Estates. As you know, the condo was unchanged from its original construction and was badly in need of updating. Shannon Lenstra was very helpful in making suggestions on the complete reno and won me over to undertake the job when she committed to substantially complete the renovation in eight weeks while I was away last summer......Not only did you accomplish, on time, what was an audacious goal in the heated construction environment in Calgary at that time, you did so with an attention to detail that I have never seen before in the half dozen renovation or construction projects I have undertaken in my life. And you never lost your focus until the job was completed right down to the last detail. On top of this, you have done it all with a cheerful 'can do' attitude that has never wavered. It has been a real pleasure to work with you on this project........Please pass on my appreciation to the rest of the Kon-Strux team......Thank you very much for all you have done."

"...We are thoroughly pleased with the results! Our house is outstanding to us both in appearance and quality workmanship. Kon-Strux has set a high standard with great attention to detail.

"When Keith and I decided to renovate our 30 year old house, the Kon-Strux design team worked with us to incorporate our ideas and came up with very practical and unique design concepts. We are thoroughly pleased with the results! Our house is outstanding to us both in appearance and quality workmanship. Kon-Strux has set a high standard with great attention to detail. They provided us with regular updates on the progress of the house along with detailed cost and schedule reports, and provided solutions to any obstacle that arose. With a project of this magnitude, there were many trades to organize and orchestrate. Kon-Strux obtained several quotes for each part of the project along the way so that we were assured we were getting fair market prices. Kon-Strux let us see every trade invoice, was our advocate and treated our project like it was their own. We also value the security of knowing we have a 2 year warranty on all work. We are truly grateful to Kon-Strux and think they did an amazing job!"

"...We had a three month deadline to complete the project and Kon-Strux did everything they could to ensure we were back in our home by the deadline. Although the timeframe was extremely important to us, so was the finished project and we are equally pleased with all of the aspects..."
"We were given Kon-Strux’ name by our designer, Kim Gill of Simply Consulting. We met with Fran and Shannon and we were immediately impressed by their professionalism and their knowledge of the industry.....We had a three month deadline to complete the project and Kon-Strux did everything they could to ensure we were back in our home by the deadline. Although the timeframe was extremely important to us, so was the finished project and we are equally pleased with all of the aspects including such major items as window replacement, floor resurfacing, counter-top replacement, faucet replacement and painting of the entire interior of the house. They were always very considerate of our questions and concerns and addressed them promptly and thoroughly. We are just completing the renos and Kon-Strux is standing by their original promise that we will be happy with all facets of the renovation."

"...We particularly enjoy working with Kon-strux because of their job procedure practice...”
"Floorscapes has been fortunate enough to have worked with Kon-strux over the past 2 ½ years. We particularly enjoy working with them because of their job procedure practice. This starts with a Trade Day in which we are invited to site to attend with the Kon-strux representatives, the homeowners, and the other trades. This allows us to view the site and discuss any potential snags, offer feedback as far as co-ordinating with other trades, and bring forward any ideas that may enhance the project. The interesting part is that Kon-strux actually listens and will implement ideas that they feel have merit.
Another noteworthy item is their attention to detail though-out the project and in the finishing touches. They are meticulous in this area prior to turnover."
"We are proud to be a trade partner with Kon-strux and when we see promotional pictures of their projects, we know the part we played is appreciated."

"...Time and time again we have the same experience... clear instructions, clean sites, organization, on time, on budget, and best of all for us pleasant and efficient trades that work beside us..."
"We can't help but be inclined to offer our compliments and congratulations. Over the 12 years we have been in business we have worked with many renovation companies. We have seen sites that are messy, months behind schedule, way over budget with cranky tradespeople and frustrated homeowners. Unfortunately, this seems to be the norm in the industry....Renovation companies are disorganized, we thought, chaotic at best. Our assumptions could not have been farther from the truth!!!
"Our first experience with Kon-Strux was a well written scope of work, with clearly defined expectations on which to base our quotation. Wow, we thought. This is new. We've never seen a reno company seem so organized. Our surprise didn't stop there. The day for us to start our work came, and lo and behold, you were ready for us! No delay's??? Really??? We showed up with our gear and crew and were further shocked to find an exceptionally clean working environment with proper site protection, first aid kits on site, clear instructions, and a clear path to do our job well, instead of climbing over a dozen other people. A fluke? A stroke of luck? Surely they can't pull this off every time??! You proved us wrong again. Time and time again we have the same experience... clear instructions, clean sites, organization, on time, on budget, and best of all for us pleasant and efficient trades that work beside us because we are all given the proper time and space to do our job the way a good trade should."
"We as a painting company would bend over backwards for Kon-Strux and their clients. Because that's what they do for us. By running their systems so efficiently, they allow us to do our job well too. The end result is a product of which we, Kon-Strux and the homeowners can be proud of."

"Just wanted to touch base to say thanks for all the work in getting the trades day set up, it is exciting to get the point where we are actually seeing a start to the demo!
I also wanted to comment on the overall impression that I got from meeting the majority of the trades.
Having had a background in dealing with trades for years, I have to say that all the guys that showed up today are awesome,
and if their workmanship is anything like how they present themselves, the job is going to go incredibly well! Can't wait to get started."

"...You are open and honest regarding estimating and billing. I love that there are no hidden costs, and that my clients can avail themselves of discounts which would only be offered to contractors and those in the trade.....We have worked on eight projects to date together, and I certainly have no intention of using any other team."
