We moved into new corporate space of 25,000 square feet a couple of years ago that Paul built. There were many issues that were created by the short notice at our end, and poor planning by our architect. Paul stepped in and made sure that the project happened on time and on budget. My previous experiences with construction have been rife with extras, workmanship issues, and missed deadlines. Paul did not fall prey to any of that. He did great work at a reasonable price and delivered against seemingly impossible deadlines. The finishes varied from simple to complex and from basic to high end. All areas were well done. I can't say the process was pleasant, because there were so many issues created by others. However Paul was an oasis of calm and professionalism that made the experience as good as it could have been given the time constraints and architectural issues. Paul solved the issues rather than create them. Paul also made a number of design related suggestions that ended up looking great and costing less than originally planned. It was apparent that he was associated with a good core of trades that allowed this to happen. The best recommendation I can give is that we just used Paul again! We recently built out more space – again almost 25,000 square feet. Paul has been the prime designer of the space and has supervised the entire process for us. It is a complex assignment with many participants (landlord, parent company, contractors, sub trades etc.) with an extremely short time line. Once again, it would not have been possible to complete on time and with the result we required without Paul having been engaged to design and manage the general contractor and his trades. I would certainly highly recommend Paul. It sounds like the recommendation is unusually good – but Paul has “saved” the projects that he has been involved in – both began by being led by other parties and Paul made it work!
