TESTIMONIALS
EXCELLENT Based on 28 reviews Anne Dunnigan2025-04-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Juniper Design and Build just completed work on a retaining wall project and I couldn’t be happier. In the way of background, the existing wooden retaining wall was on the verge of collapse and needed to be replaced without delay. Kyle and his team completed the work meticulously and in record time. The attention to detail was second to none. Kyle assigned Owen to be prime on the removal of the old and construction of the new wall. Owen worked long hours each and every day and was truly a perfectionist. He clearly loves what he does and was committed to ensuring the final product was structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing. During the entire project, Kyle was on site daily to check on progress and provide expert guidance and advice. As well, Michaella, who managed the office, corresponded with us frequently and always responded to any of our questions in a prompt and efficient manner. Her ability to provide ongoing direction and support and to act as a communication vehicle was so very much appreciated.The entire experience was such a positive one because of the effectiveness and efficiency of these three individuals. They are a stellar team. Juniper Design and Build are excellent at what they do. Their customer orientation and their ability to deliver timely, cost effective and quality results put them a notch above their competition. I look forward to engaging them for any future projects and have already recommended them to family and friends. Thank you Kyle, Owen and Michaella for everything. Sincerely, Anne Andrew Kovar2025-04-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been working with Kyle over the past 3 years and every project we do together turns out great and he is extremely easy to work with. I would recommend him to anyone looking for Construction and Excavation services. Mandy Osborne2024-11-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a wonderful experience with this company. Very friendly, knowledgeable and was a pleasure to get their professional advice and suggestions. They did not try to sell me on needing to replace an existing structure but instead was very honest about its condition and who doesn't like an honest company. If in future the structure does need replacing, I will happily contact them again. Thank you :) David Cooney2024-10-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Merivale United Church, 1876 Merivale Road, Ottawa, just South of Hunt Club Road, had struggled with two potential fixes for coping stones falling off an 11 year old previous repair of the wall when we approached Kyle Hector of Juniper Design and Build. Kyle suggested removing the coping and retaining wall as well as the concrete walkway. Initially we felt the cost would be prohibitive, but when the cost came in less than previous plans of repair, it gave us an opportunity to expand the walkway area over to the Church foundation. Kyle then proceeded to install a new retaining wall which was 7 feet longer parallel to Merivale Road which gave us more walkway area. He also raised the walkway so we now have a handicap free entrance to the Church. There are other improvements he also incorporated, so I suggest you visit the site and discover them for yourself. Thanks Kyle, Dave Cooney Eric Lapensee2024-10-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was a contractor on a project that Juniper worked on, and the damage caused was substantial. I have attached some images to show the work: • Damaged a water supply by not digging by hand when approaching critical areas. This caused multiple homes on the street to lose water for six hours until the city repaired the break. • Caused significant damage to two driveways, both of which will need to be entirely replaced (estimated cost: $15,000). • Incorrectly directed traffic through a neighbor’s yard. My client informed me that the neighbors were extremely upset by this. • Kinked a brand new $1,500 copper pipe that had to be replaced. • ... and more. Having worked in the trades for 30 years, I strongly advise extreme caution when considering Juniper for excavation work. More updates and details to follow..

Highly recommended. Kimberly Grant2024-08-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rick and his team were absolutely amazing. They boys worked fast and got the deck ready for us super quickly. They are so polite and nice, Brooke is extremely responsive over emails and gave us all the information we needed to go ahead with our project in a timely manner. There were no additional hidden costs, they came in on budget and built the deck we wanted. They are affordable while delivering first class quality. Over all 5 star service, I love that this is a family owned business and we will be definitely using them again for more home renos. Thanks so much for a lovely deck !

Rick and crew arrived Monday morning and a week later we had a new fence. Crew were quiet and professional. Crew were respectful of plants. Rick kept us in the loop, letting us know what was going to happen and offering alternative suggestions for the final look of the fence.

Matthew Guindon2024-05-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Got a new retaining wall put in. Was happy with the retaining wall it self. Kyle and his crew did a good job. However it took about two weeks to get rid of a pile of rocks, dirt, concrete and debris. A fair size pile was left behind and I ended up taking care of it myself. Tracks in the ground from the machines wer left trenched in and the old dirt full of rocks spread around instead of topsoil. Not what I expected when I was told it was going to be the same as it was before.
