We wanted to keep the bones of the house but over half of the interior had to be gutted. A staircase had to be built to access an existing loft. Walls were taken out to accommodate an open concept kitchen/dining area and new windows and kitchen relocation were designed. The 2 bathrooms were also gutted and new plumbing fixtures were relocated. All new flooring and doors were installed, laundry facilities relocated, extensive electrical added along with bringing in natural gas to accommodate the oven, fireplace and BBQ. We acknowledge and thank Darren and his crew for the outstanding work they did on our beautiful home and feel very lucky that we had such detailed craftsmen working on the job.

“They arrived promptly, were friendly, polite, professional and accountable, worked diligently, consulted with us, cleaned up and removed all tools at the end of each day. We would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone who is looking for simple or complex carpentry.”

“Buying a home is likely to the be the largest one time investment that any of us can make.  To know that when you purchase a Darren Seaman home you are buying a home built to a very high standard and with a commitment to quality that is very difficult to find elsewhere provides a very comforting assurance that you have made the right decision.”

“We contracted Darren Seaman and his team at Creative Concepts Construction to build our custom home in the Oakridge area after seeing the quality of his work in a couple of show homes in The Ridge development at the top of Glen Oaks Drive The project commenced in the Fall of 2019 and progressed steadily throughout the challenging COVID-19 year. As with many custom homes, there were many changes as we went through the building process and Darren was there at every step of the way to offer advice and suggestions – particularly important for us as we were still living in Calgary and traveling abroad during this period, with occasional visits to Nanaimo to check on the progress. We were thrilled with the finished product; Darren managed our building project very well, excelled at choosing expert and dedicated tradesmen for his core team and chose the sub-trades carefully with an eye to the quality of their work. We have been living in our new home for just over a year and are just as pleased now as when we first moved in. We would be happy to discuss our experience of working with Darren and his team with anyone contemplating a new build or renovation.”

“I want to thank you and your team for the amazing job you did on my garage/studio project. From our first meeting, with you and Lynne, right to the end, I feel that you listened to my wishes and needs and then exceeded my expectations.Whether it was the roofers or the people installing the gutters, everyone was friendly and helpful and tidy too! Some of my friends had warned me that I would be bothered by the mess which usually comes with construction projects. However, I can attest to the fact that for me, that was never the case. I so appreciated that everyone was very respectful of the property and worked so tidily. It is a dream come true for me. I so enjoy my new spaces. You can be enormously proud of the team you have assembled to work for you! I hope that there is a way you can share this letter with them. I write it with much appreciation and gratitude.”
