“We worked with Charlotte from concept to finished plans. She made this process enjoyable and solved for problems we could not imagine. She effectively acted as our liaison with the building inspectors to get approvals on new and innovative heating and air conditioning systems for a small build. She also secured comparisons for beams, all the while keeping in mind my requirements for the cleanest building materials possible. Her understanding of the building codes and language made us feel comfortable with our final decisions. She walked the property and made suggestions we will certainly implement, like burying the power line for a beautiful final finish. She has certainly gone above and beyond what was required professionally. We love this house, and it's not even built yet, thanks to Charlotte. We strongly recommend Charlotte.”

“Judy designed our new kitchen renovation. It made our kitchen more beautiful and much more functional! It is now a pleasure for our family and friends to spend time together in our gorgeous new kitchen. Judy is extremely knowledgeable about environmentally friendly design, construction methods, and products. She is an expert at knowing how to quickly find the exact product or building material that is perfect for your project. The quality of her design work is excellent. She is very professional, but it also very easy to talk with her about your design ideas. Judy is very good at listening to what your needs are in terms of function and esthetics.”

“We have built 3 houses in the past 15 years. We have develped plans with several dsigners and architechs over that time. Mr. Collinson was uniquely able to produce a design which met our needs and desires. He asked important questions. These included; the ages of our children and what activities they do. He effectively, incorporated this information into the design. Mr. Collison had a strong knowledge of the local building bylaws and there variation throughout Halifax. We are very happy with the haouse now that it is built. We would recommend Mr. Collinson. We would use his services if we were to build another house. Jock Murray”

“I hired RHAD Architects to design our new kitchen. I chose them because I was a huge fan of the beautiful work they did at a popular wellness spa in the city. I wanted something distinctive, something outside the box, but not something so different that it didn't feel comfortable. My kitchen is the crown jewel of our house. RHAD took our wish list and turned it in to something we could never have imagined. Functional, unique and truly stunning, it definitely has the drama I wanted - but not with the price tag; it cost a fraction of what everyone thinks. A few years later my husband hired them to design a set of townhouses. Again, they went over and above. The townhouses fit seamlessly with the traditional/historic vibe of the street, with a subtle modern twist which offers a hint of what's inside. The interior design is clean and modern, and clever use of space at every turn. Because these are rental properties, we needed them to be highly desirable to prospective tenants (upper middle class empty nesters) but not break the bank. RHAD Architects pulled it off, and then some. I look forward to our next collaboration!”

“We are a Canadian company that designs and manufactures cast stone architectural details. In our twenty years at the forefront of our industry, we have had the privilege of working with many builders, designers, and architect. Working with Beacon Hill on a recent project in Halifax, NS, was a true pleasure! David and Stephen are attentive, pleasant, and stay on top of their project, ultimately taking the best care of their clients as they possibly can. This particular project required some customization to our standard product. David and Stephen were very clear and professional in their communication, and provided prompt and accurate site information and design requests, for a smooth and fast custom design process. We highly recommend Beacon Hill for your design needs, and genuinely look forward to the opportunity to work with them again!”

“I have worked with Passive Design Solutions in two separate instances and I have nothing but great things to say about their service! Natalie provided us with a site evaluation of the proposed building lot. Her evaluation was both thorough and insightful and provided us with the knowledge needed to make a decision to purchase the land. She was very accommodating of my schedule and provided phone support to review the detailed report. Working directly with Natalie was a pleasure! She is professional, knowledgeable and a real expert in her field! Passive design solutions also provided us with the design service for our new home. I was provided a detailed contract upfront spelling out milestones and project cost. I worked directly with designer Mike Anderson to create a one of a kind home with all the energy efficient features that are typical of Passive Houses. Mike's background in physics and architecture and his extensive knowledge of Passive House Design naturally complement one another! Remote consulting worked out great! Face-to-face skype meetings were particularly useful and provided us with one-on-one discussion time to review the progress and the plans in detail. The final plans were amazing and contained all the construction details necessary to implement Passive House levels of insulation and air tightness. The house has exceeded my expectations in both aspects of form and function! Passive Design Solutions gets a thumbs up, a grade A+, and a kudos for a job well done!”

“I found the web site for Vincent den Hartog on line, and liked the photos he had posted. I had purchased land on the Bay of Fundy shore and needed to start over with a new build, after a demolition. It was a request to design a Cape Cod style house (3 bedrooms) with shingles to look old., and make the most of the water views. Vincent found a reputable builder to interpret my wishes. I am very pleased with the results.”
