General Contractor - Coach House Reconstruction
Archetype was selected as the preferred contractor for our coach house reconstruction project in the west end of downtown Toronto. Rebuilding the 19th century carriage house involved many complicated construction challenges which Archetype confidently took on and executed with a high level of competence. Extensive structural replacement, including new roof and floor structures within the building needed to be integrated with the 120 year old existing brick work which proved to be a delicate and intricate process. Archetype exhibited great patience and forethought during these critical initial stages that allowed for the delivery of highly complex contemporary finishing details with very little problems.
As a design focused construction company archetype was an enthusiastic partner throughout the entire construction process which was a boon for us as a exacting architectural office. Archetype’s design sense and co-operative, rather than adversarial, attitude kept the build phase productive and enjoyable for all parties involved.
Archetype's commitment and resolve continued throughout the entire project, and their meticulous attention to detail during the critical and time intensive finishing stages help to achieve a level of quality rarely seen in residential construction in this city.
Archetype has been extremely responsive in dealing with even the smallest construction deficiencies they have continued to stand by their work well after the clients have moved into their new home.
