Hi Celine & Pat
...
I can't think of anyone else to build that dream
home but you guys. No one better understands the
balance of construction and preserving the beauty of
nature of this lot than you two... Thanks again
Don & Carol

Dear Pat & Celine,
We would like to thank you for
making our cottage a reality. Your experience and
knowledge of project management gave us the courage
to pursue our dream and we cannot tell you how happy
we are with the final product.

Dear Pat & Celine,
We also wanted to express our
gratitude for providing services well beyond those
of construction project management. We are grateful
for the carefully crafted advice and actions that
you provided, (Pat) to help us secure and purchase
additional land, which was required as a result of
sudden and unexpected changes to local building
codes (…)

“A dream comes true”
Pat and Celine, you can’t imagine
our joy of living in our dream home on the lake.
Without your services, dedication and watchful eyes
on every detail of the project, this may not have
been possible. We certainly appreciate your
professionalism as well as your friendly
personalities. Being able to call either of you for
advice or feedback on any detail, made the process
of building our home a lot less stressful. “Thank
you” just doesn’t seem to express our sincere
gratitude. We wish both of you the best in life and
future endeavors.

Dear Pat,
After seeing you and Celine in the
Ottawa Home Show supplement I thought that I would
write to wish you well with your new enterprise. I
can’t tell you how fortunate I feel to have had you
as the project manager for the construction of my
house. I know that without you I would now be broke
and left with an unsatisfactorily finished house.
You even went to bat for me when I had a serious
problem with the municipality and were successful
where I probably would have handled the matter
poorly. … with my heartfelt best wishes for all your
endeavors.

Dear Pat and Celine Shank:
… You have made what can be a
stressful situation into one of the most enjoyable
projects that both my wife and myself have been
involved in. It turned out to be far above our
expectations. It was a very special high point when
our home was completely assembled with the roof and
the windows installed…

Dear Celine & Pat,
Thank you both so much for all your
help in buying and building my beautiful little home
in Percé, Gaspé, Québec. As you anticipated the home
blends in well with the extraordinary panoramic
setting in which it finds itself. I went to you with
excitement of the purchase of a new home and also
many worries about cost, quality of materials,
building permit, building contractors, types of
foundation, support beams, bearing walls as well as
a host of other problems, that had to be solved.
Your understanding, patience and kindness took all
my worries away and gave me the chance to enjoy
watching a most exciting project in process. I
highly recommend you both for your willingness to go
that extra mile to ensure client satisfaction. To
anyone looking to purchase or build a new home I can
honestly say that once you meet Celine and Pat, you
will not need to look any further. Again thanks so
much and hopefully some fine summer you will sail to
Gaspe and stay with me in the home you helped me
build.

M. Shank,
(…) avec tous vos contacts dans le
domaine de la construction, vous nous avez déniché
d’excellents ouvriers et vous vous êtes assurés que
tout se déroule bien, même très bien. Tout au long
de la construction, vous étiez présents pour nous
conseiller ainsi que pour guider les différents
quarts de travail qui ont œuvré sur notre demeure.
Nous vous remercions sincèrement pour l’aide
précieuse que vous avez apportée lors de la
construction. N’oublions surtout pas la patience
ainsi que le support moral et technique que vous
nous avez apporté. Nous vous remercions car sans
vous, la construction ne se serait certainement pas
aussi bien déroulée. Pour terminer, nous sommes très
satisfaits de notre nouvelle demeure et apprécions
la qualité de vie qu’elle nous procure.

Patrick,
Jackie and I would like to take this
opportunity to sincerely thank you for all the help
during the construction of our house last year. To
an amateur, building a house is a stressful, major
undertaking and you helped make it a much more
pleasant and rewarding experience. You demonstrated
tremendous knowledge in all areas of the
construction process, guided us through the tough
decisions and saved us considerable amounts of money
over what we would have paid without your input. (…)
We also appreciated your candidness of opinion
during some of the decisions we had to make and your
good judgment where we were not available to make
the decisions. We always felt we could trust you. Of
particular note, we feel you went above and beyond
the call on several occasions (e.g. bedroom
insulation, chasing down a more cost effective
contractor), which resulted in a much happier
customer . The end result is fabulous and we love
our new house. There should be more people like you
in the industry. Please accept our gratitude and
friendship for all you have done and don’t hesitate
to call if you are looking for references for future
customers or just to say hi.
