I recently engaged Matthew and his team at Perspective Views for one of my investment property projects. Being a novice at this, I did not know what to expect. I have to say, it has been an amazing experience so far. Not only did they perform the initial assessment thoroughly, they sat me down and went over each design (7), explaining it in detail to me. Matthew and his team are always there to answer any "novice" questions I might have and are extremely patient as well. I would highly recommend Perspective Views to anyone looking to get their property renovated, in accordance with the City's

We are working on a mixed-use renovation project in Hamilton with Matthew Ribau and his team at Perspective Views. I was recently onsite with two of his associates, Andrew and Joseph, doing a site measurement for "as-built" drawings. This is a routine exercise (although the building is older and oddly-shaped, so it was more challenging). What impressed me was the professionalism and good-natured positivity of the experience. They were working very hard to get it right, but we also had great conversation and a genuinely enjoyable experience. The reason I am sharing this relatively small detail is

Matthew and his team were a pleasure to work with. They turned my dream into a reality and took the anxiety out of the process of getting a pretty unique permit from the city of Hamilton. I would highly recommend working with with Perspective Views and I will certainly choose them again for our next project.

I never once considered when starting to work with Perspective Views that they would be the cause of the most stress and additional expense in my construction project. The worst of many problems was the inability to meet deadlines or to communicate effectively about them. In looking back at email and text communications, I can count at least five dozen deadlines that Perspective Views themselves gave for delivery of certain items, which they then missed without giving any communication that their own deadlines would be missed. It's difficult to communicate just how stressful it was to have days
