With little to no experience with professional contractors and renovations, we were not in a position to be hasty or take lightly our decision of choosing a contractor for our project. After initially meeting Pete, I knew he was right for us and for what we were ready to tackle. However, everyone we spoke to advised obtaining multiple estimates and meeting with more than just one contractor. I couldn't imagine having a better feeling about anyone else, regardless of what their estimate was. We decided that a reference would provide us with enough insight to trust our instincts and to make the move ahead with Protege Developments. We couldn't be more happy with this decision.
From the start, Pete was up front and communicative with expectations of a renovation of this size and how each stage would impact our family and our day-to-day lives. The guys on the job were easy to have around - friendly, professional, and clearly maintained a high level of standard in their expertise, which is showcased in all aspects throughout our house. Each of these people take immense pride in their work, and we see it everyday in our home.
With many questions along the way, Peter always made himself available at any time of day and provided us with incredible insight and offered appropriate suggestions, all the while, maintaining our budget needs.
Protege Developments was able to create the home that we had imagined and planned for years, in just four months. And in this short time, we ended up with far more than just a beautiful home- an incredible space to enjoy and create memories for years to come, but we also created a great friendship with Peter, and we truly couldn't be happier.
When our family finally made the big decision to have a new home built, we also made the fortunate choice of hiring Peter Waldhuber as our general contractor. This was our first time being personally involved in the construction of a new, custom home and Peter was very patient, informative, organized and trustworthy. He communicated with us every step of the way, always listened to our ideas and presented different options when we had questions.
The countless decisions involved in a custom home can be overwhelming, but Peter helped tremendously by narrowing down the choices to those that matched our tastes and family lifestyle. Peter was totally honest with his construction budget from start to finish and never presented us with any unwelcome surprises. He takes pride in his work and always made sure we were pleased with the progress and results. In the end we were extremely happy with the completed new home and feel very lucky to have been able to count on Peter as our builder.
We are very pleased to provide this letter of recommendation and to thank Pete Waldhuber of Protege Developments and his great team of talented trades.
We contracted Protege Developments for 2 major bathroom renovations in our home. After interviewing several contractors we chose Protege for their professionalism and conscientious approach to the project. Pete spent a great deal of time with us on the design elements and practical aspects of our renovation helping us save money Where it made sense and still achieve our vision. Pete and his talented group of trades transformed our dated, poorly functioning ensuite bathroom into a dream spa oasis.
Protege was on-time, on-budget and the quality of the workmanship was outstanding. Everyone took pride in their work and the end result shows it!
