Garage with storage loft

We wanted to build a double car garage with a storage loft that maximized the height allowed by the City of Edmonton. After looking at standard garage packages and not finding what we wanted, we hired Monarch to custom design the garage. The end result was better than we could have expected. As a picky interior designer I was happy to see Peter was able to meet our specific requirements and exceed our expectations.

Suite Renovation

I hired Monarch to renovate three suites at my rental property. They have great workmanship and they got the job done on time. I highly recommend them. I had trouble renting out the property until I hired Monarch, now my rental property is fully rented!

Framing renovation

I worked with peter and his helper for approximately 2 weeks or more. They worked very hard, it was during the winter. They came when they said they would and put in a full days work. They did a good job. I would use them again.

Home Construction (partial)

Peter Jorgesen is an honest business man, creative, and enthusiastic. Also, we found that the whole group does excellent work. We would highly recommend Monarch Group for any home construction or renovation projects you may have.

Home Built

We hired Monarch Group to build our first home. When we met with the owner, he was very knowledgable and have us some great ideas for the floor plan. We were able to customize the things we wanted/needed. The build was really fast and well done.
I am in the construction business as a site super intendant and was happy with the work they did. Considering I don't have time to build a house myself, they were a good company to hire.
Every new home has a few minor glitches and they were helpful in ironing them out for us.
We've since then sold the house and we are currently in the process of starting to build a second one with Monarch.
I'd highly recommend Monach to build your home. I am around construction companies often and these guys are among the best.

Framing

I used Peter on a framing project . It was the first time I utilized his services and was very happy. He was professional and made suggestion to the plans that saved headaches down the road. Left a clean site and will use him again on future projects.

Half Story Addition

Peter Jorgesen came to look at an old house I bought that I was thinking of doing some renovations to. He had really innovative ideas and we settled on adding a half story to the house. Peter did all the work from the design work, to tearing off the old roof and hauling it away, to framing and arranging some of the trades for the new roof. He shingled, put in windows, a door etc. We were really happy with the quality of work done, and have had no complaints or regrets. Peters crew was fast, efficient and trustworthy. We even went on a vacation half way through the reno and had no issues - we got home and the work was ahead of schedule and looked great!

Construction of home

The possession date was forgotten by builder.He suggested moving in anyway despite the fact that the furnace was not operational (he was willing to provide a heater).I had to change the possession date and all of my moving arrangements to a later date.
There was to be a new garage built. This was not provided. Instead the builder built over the original 1950's garage. The old cement slab was simply covered with a plastic material. I had to wait for weeks for the big garage door to be installed. I was not told this until the day before I moved in. Thus all of the valuables I had planned on storing in the garage were only secured by a pieice of wood the builder hammered on to replace the door. When the door did arrive it was discovered that the builder did not ensure there was an electrical outlet in the garage for the electric door. Thus another delay with the garage. When summer came and it was time to retrieve lawn chairs etc from the garage I discovered there was mold all over many items. I then discovered the garage did not have any outside vent installed. I had to have this done and pay for the cost out of my own pocket.
During the walkthrough I discovered that airconditioning had not been installed. This was part of the purchase agreement and part of the reason I paid additional monies for this home. The builder forgot this was in the contract.
There is hardwood over a space 3,000+ sq ft.in the house. There are huge gaps in the hardwood throughout the entire home.There was neither heat nor humidity in the house when the hardwood was installed. The humidifier was not operational until 4 mths after moving in.
New appliances were to be provided. All of the appliances in the kitchen are mismatched. Two of them are dented and scratched .I later learned these were purchased from a scratch & dent store.
The plumbing and bathroom fixtures are defective.
Pieces of exterior of house have blown off.
The property has failed city inspection in terms of grading three times . Ten months post purchase the backyard has still not been landscaped as promised. The home is over 3,000+ sq ft and only one cable jack was installed. Now, after the house has been completed, I will have to pay to have addtional cable jacks installed. A rather costly endeavor at this stage.

Company Response

Kathy, I regret that we were not able to satisfy you with our service. I did give you several complimentary upgrades, and we made multiple service calls. I truly hope that you are otherwise happy with your beautiful home.
