Reviews of Mark Acton Construction & Home Design Build (Contractor)

Thomas Pintwala

Excellent work by Mark and his crew was done on our cottage in 2013. First phase, the renovation effort involved lifting the building off the ground, replacing the main beams and repairing the foundation. Second phase, a complete renovation of building occurred: interior walls/flooring/vaulting some ceilings and repairing others, ensuring the electrical & plumbing systems were brought up to code, new windows, new entrance door, new patio doors to the lake side deck and adding a new second bathroom. Final phase, a new deck was built with a pergola. Mark also assisted in the effort of acquiring Architectural drawings, Building permits and Conservation Authority permits and all required inspections. During the planning and execution stages of the project, Mark was extremely helpful with design and renovation improvement ideas that increased the quality of the work done and our satisfaction of the overall result.

Needed some assistance with a project I was facing and contacted Mark through Google. Mark came in and gave a more then fair estimate on completing the entire basement. We actually thought we'd be late in completion of the Project, but it was actually done 2 weeks before estimated time. Very glad that Mark came through with everything discussed prior. I recommend this company if your looking to spice up your everyday living. Good craftsman ship all around!

Mark and his crew finished our entire basement from scratch. They gave me the spa bathroom I always wanted and a beautiful wet bar! My husband can be a bit OCD so I was worried about the mess and final finishing but everything turned out perfect. It looks better than a lot of newly finished houses I've been in! When I need the upstairs kitchen and bath done I will be calling him again. Thanks Mark

Do not recommend. Over-priced and shoddy work ethic.

You will spend 50% more money than is necessary using Mark and his team. Contractors cost more generally due to the convenience aspect, but there are more financially efficient contractors available than Mark. Do your wallet a favour, and look elsewhere.

would put 0 stars if i could

Simple project, but the bottom line is: I did not want to fix my own front door -> Mark Acton Construction took care of it for me. The convenience of services like this are amazing. I simply outsource my 'to do' list to Mark Acton Construction in Simcoe, and I've never been happier ;)

Mark Acton Construction built us a detached garage in the spring/summer 2018. Our project was a bit complicated as we had to work with LPRCA, our local township and surveyors as the area the shop was to be built on was sloped and required grading changes, and Mark worked closely alongside those involved to advocate for us and our project. The project was completed in a timely and efficient manor. Mark and his employees were professional and courteous in our interactions. In addition they were respectful of our and our neighbour's surrounding property. Any questions or concerns we brought forward were dealt with quickly and always to our satisfaction. We are very pleased with the final result which is beautiful, functional and under budget! We would recommend Mark Acton Construction to anyone considering a project big or small. Thank you Mark!

Thank you, Mark and crew for another great job! We know how difficult it is making adjustments to this ancient house of ours, but the new veranda foundation, floor and columns match perfectly.

Jenny Acton

Thank you for the extraordinary deck! I appreciate it big time. I will be calling you back soon to insulate my garage! Cheers!

Quality workmanship, project management could use improvement, went over budget however we got a great finished product

Doug Dalgetty

Over the past 14 years, we have had Mark Acton Construction do several repairs and remodelling work on our properly. We have been impressed with the quality and thoroughness of each job. The work was completed in a timely fashion each time and the cost was estimated accurately as well. We would have no hesitation in continuing to employ Mark Acton Construction in the future.

Very happy with Mark on our new cottage. He took care of everything from permits, demolition and complete new build. All costs and markups were shown and explained to us. Very professional.

modelling my basement with Mark and his team was an absolute wonderful experience and the finished workmanship was to a tee. I will enjoy my new basement for years to come.

Mark and his crew completed a bathroom renovation and addition for us. The renovation was a total gut back to the studs and the addition was a new room and enclosed porch. Mark took care of all design, permits, sub contractors and material purchases. We are very pleased with the finished work and receive compliments on it frequently. The crew were friendly, hard working and excellent craftspeople. They wanted to make sure that we were pleased at every step of the way. Mark was always available to answer any questions we had. He always arrived promptly for any scheduled meetings. I would not hesitate to recommend Mark for similar projects.
