BBA DESIGN STUDIO INC - Architect

Ben has been a joy to work with, a consummate professional and extremely helpful during our application for a building permit; he was very accommodating and patient in regards to our inexperience with renovations.

While working with Ben to make adjustments to the drawings there was a specific change we decided towards the end that would require the Committee of Adjustments to approve of which would incur additional costs both for his services and to the city; Ben could've easily given the notice of the additional cost requirement, accepted the additional work for minimal extra effort. Instead he chose to also give his own recommendation AGAINST making that last impulsive change as it seemed unnecessary given the cost vs benefits to making that change for our overall project, it was a clear show of his moral ethics and we greatly appreciated it.

Second time having the pleasure of working with Ben. It goes without saying that I am very happy with the services. I truly rely on Ben to guide me through the very detailed planning, premitting and technical aspects of the project. Ben is thorough, detailed and knowledgeable, which all attributes one should expect; however, his kindness and patience and begin an overall nice guy to engage with is the type of professional I want to work with: respectful and professional
I will definitely use Ben on my next project and would highly recommend him.

Ben is knowledgeable, and was able to get my permit through the city in less than 2 weeks!! And without going to committee of adjustment! Highly recommend!

Very kind caring and professional. Walked us through the whole process and prepared us for anything we might face.

I worked with BBA Design and they considered all my requirements and produced an amazing design which I was able to take to contractors. They came to the house in a timely manner to measure and produced a product very quickly. I will definitely work with them for my next project.

Ben was fabulous to work with over the past 2 years- his attention to detail, patience and ability to understand our needs was incredible. Ben was always well prepared and always two steps ahead of us. He represented us extremely well with the City and always had our best interests at heart. Ben was very responsive and easy to work with. We will have our dream home due to Bens excellent designs. Overall Ben is highly recommended.

I hired Ben as the architect for my full house reno (complete gut) and dormer addition in Toronto. Overall I am extremely satisfied with my experience and would confidently recommend Ben to anyone who needs a qualified, reliable and highly competent architect.

Starting from my initial inquiry, Ben was quick to respond, provided clear and fair pricing, and set expectations on timing. I was looking to get moving on the project very quickly and Ben was able to come onsite on the weekend to take detailed measurements to kick things off.

From there he was able to move very fast, communicating with me over email, phone and Zoom to get all the drawings together to submit the permit application. When the city was taking too long to review it, Ben contacted the office and pushed to have the review complete (which was achieved successfully). Ben's experience and knowledge of the city review process and reviewers was particularly helpful. This was crucial as I'm sure the process could have dragged along further if Ben hadn't pushed for it.

I'm very glad I hired Ben for this project and I will definitely hire him again for my future needs.

We were referred to Ben from another architect who had retired.
He provided us a clear estimate and was very thorough when he and his team came by to take measurements.

During his walk through our place and hearing our plans, he made additional suggestions of other considerations and was clear in explaining to us next steps.

BBA is the only design company that I trust for all my building design and permit needs. Ben is always opt to go the extra mile to ensure that his customers are satisfied! We are truly happy with your services! Thank you so much!
