Custom Interior Design by the Best Toronto Firms

Choosing a Design-Build Firm

More and more homeowners are choosing design-build firms for the construction of their new homes, renovations, remodelling and custom interior design jobs. Choosing the right company for your design project takes a bit of research, but there are some hallmarks of excellence to look for.

First, make sure that the firm you choose has the expertise and experience necessary. Talk to previous customers and view completed projects. Hearing about previous clients’ experiences with the firm will give you a good idea of whether or not the firm is reliable and easy to work with.

One reliable way to find out whether your design-build firm does high quality work is to make sure you choose a company that’s registered with Tarion, the Ontario organization that regulates new home builders. Unbelievably, many GTA builders are unregulated! Knowing that your company has passed the Tarion certification gives you peace of mind: Tarion builders are held to high building standards, and must adhere to current safety codes and building regulations.

Professional Associations

You can also find helpful information about builders on the websites of the Canadian Home Builders’ Association or the Ontario Home Builders’ Association. These websites offer guidance regarding interviewing contractors, checking references and contracts, as well as information about Ontario laws and regulations.

Once you’ve chosen the right builder, let the process of custom interior design begin – and prepare to be dazzled by the rejuvenation of your living space!
