Kerr Design Build reviews (48)

I had some water ingress issues from the deck upstairs and had Kerr come out to investigate and quote. They did some testing and provided us with 2 approaches to resolve the issue. Kerr came in and did drywall and repairs to our ceiling, as well as having to install a new deck upstairs as the issue stemmed from incorrect installation and sloping. Because the ceiling was open in my unit, I took the opportunity to add pot lights and sound proofing while they were there. The staff were amazing, from the quote and investigation and ultimately to having Grant W. assigned onsite for the actual repairs. The team is very respectful, accommodating, neat and hard working - I had to sleep in my dining room for 3 weeks, but they made the process easy. I have no hesitation in using them again or recommending their service.

Kerr Construction provided design and construction servies to rebuild our kitchen (including home extension, new roof-line, back porch/landing, and stairwell to basement), and did excellent quality work. The designers converged on our solution very quickly, and then were able to focus on details where there were many options. The construction work followed the schedule very closely, and ultimately was completed within a day or two of the originally-scheduled date. Kerr provided full-time construction supervision and crew throughout, and were very professional. All the subs were well managed, and the on-site foreman was extremely responsive to our questions and concerns. I would definitely recommend this company for a medium size Design-Build job.

Kerr Construction did repairs at the back of my house replacing some rotting cedar boards. They also built a shed addition giving me extra outdoor storage. The work is completely satisfactory and I would recommend Kerr Construction without any hesitation. Kerr Construction has also done renovation work for several of my neighbours.

Kerr did worked on several projects in on house. They replaced all the interior doors in our house, put in new hardware frames, crown moldings in the living room and dining room, did work on the interior windows in multiple rooms, widened three closets and did all the painting in the house. Outstanding work; absolutely beautiful. Steve, who did the carpentry, is fantastic. The painting crew is top notch. We are currently in the process of sitting down with someone else from Kerr to do our kitchen. They were fantastic, cleaning up thoroughly and left everything in our house looking marvelous.

Kerr did a major reno of our house. We tore the house down to the foundation and re built it. It’s an excellent house and has won an award. Kerr made the process pain free. They are pretty close to perfect, they were very easy to work with and kept us informed every step of the way, making us comfortable throughout the process.

We were thrilled with Kerr Construction's work on our bathroom renovation and various tasks around our house. We needed a number of small things done (new garden door, fixing drafty doors, installing a handrail) plus a whole bathroom renovation. Kerr managed to get the major reno and all our small tasks done, in a very timely way, reasonably close to budget, and with as little disruption to our household as possible. We were, and are, very happy with their work from beginning to end. Highly recommended.

All the support posts for our car port were rotten and needed to be replaced. The estimator from Kerr came over and reviewed the project. We discussed my requirements: demolition, post replacement, cedar siding and plexiglass windows. The estimate was acceptable and I gave the project the go ahead. Shawn was the contractor for the project. He was very pleasant. We reviewed the job and discussed his suggestions, all of which were positive. Shawn raised some concerns after the demolition. This resulted in additional work and materials. I was very concerned about the overruns but after conversations with Shawn and Dave I agreed to proceed. The end result is excellent. I will use them for future projects and would recommend them to anyone reading this review.

Our strata complex hired Kerr Construction to replace skylights in our complex in June of this year (2013) Widely varying quotes from bidding contractors led the Strata Corporation to seek advice from the engineers who performed the Building Envelope Assessment some years ago. The information we received led to the selection of Kerr Construction / Absolute Roofing ( their sister company) because of their combined experience which gave the Strata Corporation a greater level of of assurance that the work was in competent hands. The project was carried out in a timely, professional and very courteous manner and based on that positive experience the Strata Corporation intend to re-hire Kerr Construction/Absolute Roofing to replace more skylights next year.

Kerr construction was a pleasure to work with on our loft project. We partially enclosed our loft space which required a lot of detailed work; retiled the bathroom shower; renovated the spare room, refinished the concrete floors, sinks and countertop; and had the entire loft painted. They were on time, on budget, and always cleaned up daily so we could hardly tell they'd been there except for the daily progress. My husband and I would recommend Kerr for any small or large projects. They are very flexible and have a great team that can accommodate a wide variety of complex tasks.

My wife and I recently hired Kerr Construction to complete a reno of our living and dining room on our family home in North Vancouver. We used Kerr from beginning to end, starting with their architects Derek and Nisha for design and using them for the construction and finishing as well. We initially chose Kerr because they seemed established and capable and we really liked our impression of Derek who took the time to listen to what we were looking for even when we didn't really know. We feel more knowledgeable and experienced with renovating now and love the finished product. With our busy lives, it was nice to have the customer service and hand holding through the whole phase of the project. We would recommend them to anyone! David and Joanne G North Vancouver
