Paul and Anne were a huge help as we renovated our 40 year old kitchen! From Anne's detailed help in giving us food for thought during the design process, to Paul's clear direction and persistence during construction, Duku offer a very comprehensive service.
Like any construction project, there were some bumps in the road but the Duku team were able to address any issues head on and get them ironed out with care and attention.
At the end of the project, we were left with a gleaming new kitchen, expertly installed and we are very pleased with the end product.
Thank you to the Duku team for your hard work!
Just want to give a massive shout out to Duku Design, Engineering & Construction.
18 months ago my girlfriend and I purchased a century home in Stouffville. Within 2 weeks of moving in there was a massive rainstorm that flooded part of our main floor. This continued to happen a further 4 times each time it would rain. We were heartbroken. We loved our home from the first time we saw it and couldn't believe we had this issue.
The cause being a 100 year old porous foundation which is not covered by insurance, neither the repair or damage.
We initially had a local leading "Foundation repair and waterproofing" company in to provide a water management solution for the outside of our home to hopefully stop the water from getting to the house. Within a week we had water in our house again and unfortunately a solution that had no guarantee or warranty. So of course no refund.
We proceeded to have a further 4 contractors in to look at the issue and quote it. To our shock we wouldn't even get a call back!
Kristine met Anne Dupuis and Paul Kucera through being a client of hers and we reached out to them for help. DUKU came up with a solution and proceeded with the work. Between jobs and scheduling the work took a month and a bit but even way before the work was complete we had no water in our home ??
To further add to the challenge, being a century home our house is located on the lot line with our eavestroughs encroaching on the neighbours property. Our wonderful neighbours not only let us access their property not once but twice this year for this repair which was a terrible inconvenience to them in the use of their yard. We are blessed with great neighbours and have much love for them ??
Can't say enough good about the foundation repair DUKU did on our home along with the water management solution. I know this isn't the prettiest of jobs like a bathroom or kitchen but as it pours down rain tonight we are celebrating as our new water mgmt solution keeps our home dry.
Thank you DUKU from the bottom of our hearts.
Kristine and Darren
Speechless with this testimonial from another one of our awesome clients for a successful implementation of a highly customized water management, foundation underpinning and water proofing job. Awesome when we can be a part of solutions no one wants to take on. With our in house Engineering and experience in large scale Industrial, Commercial and Residential projects we bring the best industry solutions right down to our residential clients.
Thanks for being great clients and for your patience as we implemented this complex solution. We thrive on taking on the most complex projects that most would leave untouched.
Enjoy your dry stress free space.
Paul from Duku was extremely friendly, professional, and helpful with having a large leaking window at the front of our house repaired. He gave us our different options with their costs and was honest about what each would mean for our house. He has been great at keeping in touch to make sure the repair successfully solved our problem. We have another repair on our home that needs to be done (interior damage due to the water leak), and we are looking forward to having him fix that for us as well!
We had a great experience with DuKu. Paul came to our house and explained our options without pressuring us, he was very knowledgeable and approachable. We eventually proceeded with finishing the unfinished portion of our basement and Paul and his team did an amazing job. We also had a series of random jobs around the house that the Duku team was able to fix for us in an efficient way. After the jobs were done Paul followed up to make sure we were satisfied with the work. We are planning to use the Duku team in the spring to do some outdoor work. I would recommend Duku to anybody pursuing home improvement projects.
Paul has done a number of jobs for us including roofing on two separate buildings which were both complicateda nd difficult jobs. The work was done in a timely manner and he was incredibly professional. He also took care of a smaller exterior paint job which we are very pleased with. We highly recommend him for any job you need done.
DUKU design has performed many tasks for us for over the last 5 years.
Since purchasing SouthBay Resort, a campground on Manitoulin Island, their first task was rebranding. We needed a new differentiated identity for our customers and they did a fantastic job.
They have designed new flyers, pamphlets,website, road signs and vehicle decals.
But that's not all. From small building repairs, grounds keeping and General maintenance they also helped in the build of a sleep bunkie.
After incredible work for our small business we hired them for a major home bathroom renovation. A complete gut and rebuild. From planning, designing, destruction, construction, plumbing, drywall, painting and installation... They truly do it all.
Thumbs up guys, don't stop working hard and great success!
When deciding to do a kitchen renovation, the idea of putting all the pieces (physical and mental) together scared me. I tried my hand at design apps and website tools and simply got frustrated because I couldn't make them work! (It looked simple in the promotion videos!). Working with Duku was amazing - they managed to get my vision onto the screen and make it 100 times better with visual aids that helped the planning process. Their knowledge, not only about design, but about the practical, every day things you need in a kitchen to make it functional, were really useful and helped make the whole kitchen renovation run a lot smoother.
Duku Design and Engineering Construction assisted us with the removal of an old gas burning fireplace. The surround of the gas insert had odd construction and required specific attention to structural issues. They did a wonderful job and went the extra mile sourcing a beautiful mantle to finish the space. We have a small child and their diligence and regard for our specific needs made doing the renovation with her safe and easy.
