Why People Select Us
See why people partner with Acadia DC for their interior structural wall removal!
Acadia is great!!! Our project is a bakery in Toronto and Acadia was able to guide our permit process very efficiently. We needed a zoning variance and building permits. They coordinated everything so that there was minimal time between the 2 processes.
The staff are INCREDIBLE!!! All very professional and very good at the work they do. I was panicked at a couple of stages, and they took the time to explain what was happening with the project and how it's progressing.
I would absolutely recommend Acadia, and also an amazing contractor that they sometimes work with, whose name is George - it was a great feeling to see someone so skilled at their work. Max (the owner) was incredibly patient with our questions, but also incredibly skilled at designing both the interior and exterior.
It's a great pleasure working with Acadia team which is accommodating and sensitive to our needs. Their professionalism shows in management, quality of work and customer service. The project was extremely successful and our personnel could not have been more pleased with their work environment.
