Testimonials – Clients’ Feedback

Alma Building and Renovation revamped our condo top to bottom.  They kept everything running tip-top and on-time.  Obviously, with any reno we came upon many obstacles- Alma’s team dealt with every problem in a calm and efficient manner.  Don’t know what we could have done without this expertise-   Thank you!

Our house has not only appreciated in value, but now generates a significant income that dramatically drops our cost of ownership with little or no impact on our own quality of life because the secondary suite is self-contained and the tenant is happy with the value they receive.  Tony’s team was always available and ready with alternatives and solutions as we moved along from one idea to another.  Material samples such as tiles, carpets, etc were within reason and appropriate to the costs, colours and effects we were working toward.  Construction idiosyncrasies and challenges were mutually assessed with the solution and any impacts well understood before proceeding.  We highly recommend Alma Construction.

We used Tony Chebaya of Alma Building and Renovation Ltd. to undertake a complete the major reno of our newly purchased but 20 year old (and dated) condo in Kitsilano Vancouver.  In all respects Tony surpassed our expectations; he was very organized, attentive and promptly responded to our requests.  The sub trades he used all contributed to the final highly satisfying outcome which was executed to a very high professional standard at a reasonable cost.   I fully intend to use Alma’s services in future and hence I have no hesitation in recommending this company for any project you may be considering.

Please feel free to contact me should you wish to discuss the project Alma’s team undertook for us.

When Tony first came over to look at our house and give us an estimate, my gut feeling told me I could trust Tony.   Not only has this proven to be true, but I can sincerely say we were blown away by the professionalism of Tony and of his subcontractors.   Tony and his team carried out the job on schedule, they were clear and honest communicators, they were friendly and personable, they were very respectful of our space, and they made every effort to keep the workspace and surrounding area as clean as possible.   The final results were beautiful and even better than what we had hoped for.

I heartily recommend Tony for your renovation project. You will be very satisfied with the results.

As Project Manager of the Parish Building Maintenance Committee, I worked closely with Tony, from Alma Building and Renovation, to make sure that the needs and expectations of the parish were not only met but exceeded.  The new facility in the parish was a challenging project, yet owner’s rep-contractor coordination and communication was crucial in effectively completing the project on time and on budget.   Tony’s honest opinion and technical skills made this project a lot easier that resulted in a successful delivery of the project and a very pleased parish.

This is the first time I have worked with Tony.  I have appreciated Tony’s intelligence and willingness to discuss options.  The workmanship has been first class, competent and thoughtful sub-trades were retained by Tony.  I have recommended him to another client for whom I am doing design work.

我很高兴能够请托尼先生重新装修我的独立屋。他装修经验丰富，熟悉当地的施工规定；工作一丝不苟，大到防水保暖，小到木头材质，都考虑周全。他很清楚怎样装修可以增加房屋的价值，同时他也会很诚实地劝我节省不必要的费用，比如怎样做可以省掉安装一扇门。工程的结果比我预想的还要好，将来如果有需要我一定还会选择他。

After seeking a number of quotes, Corpus Christi parish engaged the services of Alma Building and Renovation and Tony Chebaya to build our new garage and storage facilities.. The company provided a detailed construction schedule which was adhered to as best as possible and timely project updates were provided to us. Mr. Chebaya worked closely with the parish committee before and during the construction stages.   We also used ALMA to install air conditioning system for our parish.  Now that the project was successfully completed, I would recommend this company’s services to parish priests that might be looking to obtain quotes for various building projects.

I write this unsolicited recommendation with regards to a company that stands head and shoulders above the rest.   Alma Building and Renovations surpassed all my expectations. Tony the owner is focussed on providing a ‘one-stop-shop’ experience for his clients, and unlike many others, he seamlessly delivers. The experience was as he said it would be……on time, on budget, and hassle free. His skilled team of professional trades people are a pleasure to deal with.

Tony takes care of all the details in a thoughtful and caring manner and is always available, patient, and responsive to questions and concerns.  This is a company that deserves to be recognized for their excellent quality, timeliness and above all accountability to their clients………this certainly was my experience.

Thank you Alma Building and Construction, and congratulations Tony on another job well done.

After interviewing six contractors we were pleased to choose Tony Chebaya and Alma Building and Renovation Ltd to build our house.  From the onset, we knew we made the right choice.  Tony was involved in the latter design stage and added great value to this process.  During the building process, the structural engineering firm commented that the work and accuracy to the specs were the best they had encountered.  They went on to recommend Tony to other clients.

Tony worked hard to deliver the highest quality of work despite our tight budget.  Through every step of the process, He ensured that we were not stressed out and maintained a positive outlook and gave our project his full attention.  Our phone calls were always returned promptly and our questions were answered.
