Our homeowners are pleased with and proud of their energy efficient homes and their efforts towards greening our planet.
Working with Green Neighbourhood Homes was outstanding! Each member of the company had a professional attitude and the project was well run. Their designer was thorough and accommodating, working many hours with us to achieve a home fully customized to our wants and needs. All the details were addressed in the drawings so that everything was clear for the trades. P.J. Lemieux was an ideal builder/contractor: on time, communicative, collaborative, tidy, meticulous and honest. Our house is superbly built for longevity and energy efficiency. It is satisfying to know that a house that is so beautiful and comfortable can save us money in the long term while also reducing energy consumption. We like to know that we are doing our best for the planet. We are looking forward to working with Green Neighbourhood Homes again soon on our country property!” ~ Richard W.
"Graham came highly recommended and came right over when I explained my emergency with the City. They had never dealt with all the complexities of taking an industrial building and converting it to a combined residential and work scenario so my project ground to a standstill while they tried to sort out all the different sets of codes for each department. I was frustrated and the clock was ticking because I had no place to work or live until this project was finished.
Graham worked so well with the City officials and understood the red tape. The project was finished much faster thanks to him and was much better. I literally could not have done the project without a trained architect and it was a miracle that I found him. He is very talented and has a creative flair which defines a great designer. His calm and gentle personality was reassuring and appreciated. He saw my vision, was clever at solving problems, did thorough research, and took it to the next level.
I highly regard Graham Whiting and someday would enjoy building a masterpiece with him!" ~ Gay Isber
“P.J. Lemieux transformed our original 1950 bungalow into a beautiful, modern and thoroughly efficient home without changing the square footage. From the bricks in, he essentially rebuilt our house. As a contractor, P.J. was excellent. He came when he promised he would; his subtrades arrived as arranged and if there was a delay, we were informed. The work site was cleaned up daily. Our renovation came in on budget and I don’t think you could ask for a better craftsman! Would we have P.J. work for us again? In a heartbeat!" ~ Cathy and David W.
"I am so very grateful for the quality of your information and the care you take in communicating it clearly and simply. It speaks volumes about the work Green Neighbourhood Homes is doing and the kind of ship you run. You have completely enlightened me as a wanna-be-homeowner-to-be, plus encouraged me to be pro-active in my efforts. Thankyou, and bravo for being a beacon of light to all of us innocent, and often ignorant, homeowners! I will be recommending Green Neighbourhood Homes to others, the first chance I get! " ~ Lana
“PJ is just terrific. He shows up exactly when he says he will, the quality of his workmanship is clearly way above average, he’s fast, accurate and honest. He did great work on our house of which we are really proud, and we’re fussy. We couldn’t have asked for more and would recommend him again in a minute.” ~ Dave Yelavitch
"When it came time to replace the front and rear porches on our home, I approached Graham with some very specific requirements for assistance. I had a reasonable idea what I was after for a design, but my sketches didn't look quite 'right', and I needed proper drawings for the required building permit process.
I had some specific ideas for porches that would be a little bit different, but I also didn't want them to look like they didn't belong on the house or in our mature neighbourhood where the houses are a real mix of ages and styles. Graham listened carefully to my ideas and requirements and looked closely not only at our house but at the neighbouring homes and their porches.
Graham presented my wife and I with half a dozen different 'idea sketches' which started with my design ideas and pushed them in a variety of different directions. From here we were able to settle on a look that we all felt was appropriate. There is no doubt that Graham's professional eye for design is reflected in all of the handful of deviations from my design. They looked exactly 'right'.
With the porches completed now, I'm pleased to say that I have long since lost count of the number of people, often complete strangers, who stop at the house to comment on how great the project looked and how much it improved both the house and the neighbourhood." ~ John Hayes
“We always receive praise for the work P.J. Lemieux did for us. His work was efficient, fast and very, very well done, with faultless attention to detail. He was great to work with – always accommodating - and kept everything tidy and safe as he worked. We have additional work to be done on our home, and P.J. will be asked to do it, without hesitation.” ~ Wayne C.
