He said he'd come back and patch up a bit of the roof for us and it would only cost $150. As seniors, that was great for us to hear. Well he never showed up on the couple of occasions he said he would. We waited at home for him not to show. I called and left friendly messages for him but he responded to none of them. We are now in a position to get our roof replaced and guess who I won't be calling? Frank Simpson!1

They showed up on time and stayed late. They were very thorough in cleaning up after themselves and left our yard looking just how they found it. They came in after we had to fire the previous roofer we had hired as that person left a hole in our roof that ended up being the cause of a section of our house destroyed. One of Franks crew fixed the hole and actually restored the outside part of our house at no additional cost to us!! Would highly recommend Frank Simpson Roofing.

They weren't the cheapest quote but they certainly weren't the most expensive by several thousand dollars - and I really liked the look of their walk-in showers. I worked with David, the owner and Loree, the office manager, both were professional and pleasant to deal with - and what they promised, they delivered. They also gave excellent advice on what would work best in my small bathroom. The shower was installed this week on time and with a minimum of fuss even with a slight hiccup in the installation of the sliding door. All the trades people who came to work over the four days were on time, professional and competent. Cannot recommend this company highly enough. Five stars.

The new owner acts like he's doing you a favour to take the job.

I'll definitely consider using him in the future.

I've photographed Bruce Greenway's work for a number of years, and having spent a lot of time on…read morehis job sites, I've seen firsthand how his work goes beyond the finished product. When I chat with Bruce about a project he's asked me to photograph, he doesn't immediately point me to specific design choices he's made -- he first talks about his conversations with the homeowners, even before the project got started. So in effect, my photography ends up being guided by Bruce's listening approach: how genuinely he hears his clients, and how thoughtfully he respects the environment and geography each project sits in. Then I see it in his material choices -- locally sourced Douglas fir and cedar, green roofs seeded with native plants, overhangs positioned to manage light and heat naturally. These aren't aesthetic decisions made in isolation. They reflect someone who has paid close attention to place and to the people living in it. If you're looking for an architect genuinely driven by shaping your wishes into a new home or stunning renovation, I'd recommend Bruce in a heartbeat.

We approached Bruce to design a house for us after purchasing a challenging lot. We wanted to…read moreoptimize the view, have it fit in with the natural landscape and to be able to live on one floor. From the beginning, Bruce listened very carefully, was able to visualize and articulate how to take advantage of our location to achieve what we wanted, and he even saw things that we had not imagined. We have certainly enjoyed the creative path with him. Since this is the first time we have built a house, Bruce's ability to maintain the general design concepts through the transition to detailed implementation was excellent. He listened to our needs, and when necessary, guided us through decisions that needed to be made throughout construction. We will have a house that will bring us joy and we would definitely want to work with Bruce again in the future
