One Accountable Team

Small enough to stay involved. Experienced enough to manage the moving parts.

Renovations depend on hundreds of connected decisions. Design, pricing, materials, suppliers, trades, schedules, site conditions and client communication all need to move in the same direction.

QUAY Construction is structured around maintaining that connection. Our team remains personally involved while coordinating the specialized people required to deliver each renovation.

Projects We Deliver

One team. Different renovation types.

Our management approach applies across residential and commercial renovations, with each project adapted to its property, building requirements, intended use and scope.

How the Team Works

From first conversation to final walkthrough.

Each phase passes important information forward so the decisions made during planning support what happens later during procurement and construction.

01
Discovery

Understand the property and project.

We review the renovation goals, location, property, anticipated investment and timing before determining the appropriate next step.

02
Site Review

See the existing conditions firsthand.

Access, layout opportunities, existing systems and construction considerations are reviewed at the property.

03
Planning

Turn the idea into a coordinated scope.

Design decisions, materials, technical requirements, logistics and construction scope are developed before work begins.

04
Procurement

Connect materials to the schedule.

Cabinetry, fixtures, surfaces, appliances and long-lead materials are coordinated around the construction sequence.

05
Construction

Coordinate the people doing the work.

Trades, deliveries, inspections, site conditions, quality control and client communication are managed throughout construction.

06
Completion

Finish the project properly.

Final details and deficiencies are reviewed before the completed renovation is handed back to the client.

What Matters to Us

The standard goes beyond the finished room.

The quality of a renovation should be reflected in both the finished result and the experience required to get there.

01

Clarity

Clients should understand what is being built, what is included and what happens next.

02

Organization

Decisions, selections, suppliers, trades and schedules work better when they are coordinated early.

03

Respect

Homes, businesses, neighbours, strata buildings and occupied properties deserve thoughtful site management.

04

Craftsmanship

Quality is created through preparation, proper execution and attention to the details clients continue to see.

05

Accountability

Issues should be identified, communicated and resolved instead of being passed between unrelated parties.

06

Follow-Through

The project is not finished simply because the major construction work has been completed.

Renovation Team Questions

Clear answers before working with QUAY.

Learn how QUAY Construction coordinates project management, design, specialized trades and communication for residential and commercial renovations.

QUAY coordinates renovation projects through an organized project-management process connecting client communication, scheduling, suppliers, trades and site activity. The exact team structure depends on the size and complexity of the project.

QUAY's core team includes Founder and CEO Matin Quay and Marketing Manager Jaqueline Ruiz, with Mrs. Cutie Pie maintaining executive authority as The Big Boss. Project-specific teams also include the trades, consultants, suppliers and specialists required for each renovation.

Regulated electrical, plumbing, gas and other specialized construction work is coordinated with the appropriate qualified trades based on the requirements of the project.

QUAY can coordinate renovation planning, layouts, cabinetry, surfaces, fixtures, materials, technical requirements, procurement and construction through one connected renovation process.

A primary objective of QUAY's project-management model is to keep communication organized and centralized rather than requiring clients to independently coordinate every trade and supplier.

QUAY works on residential projects including kitchen renovations, bathroom renovations, condo renovations, basement renovations and whole-home renovations, as well as commercial renovations and tenant improvements.

Where a renovation requires architectural, structural or other professional input, the appropriate consultants can be incorporated into the project's planning and construction process.

The process begins with a discovery call to discuss the property, project type, renovation goals, anticipated investment and preferred timeline before determining the appropriate next step.
