BVM Contracting has been fortunate enough to build up a reputation of quality and trust in the renovation and home-building industry in Toronto and beyond. This has allowed us to showcase our expertise and projects in the media, which is gratifying, to say the least.
It is one thing to live and breathe the residential construction industry and showcase our knowledge to our inquiries, clients, and third-party vendors every day. To also be recognized as a thought leader by mainstream media and be able to tell our client stories is unlike anything we could have ever imagined for our small family-run General Contracting Company. We would like to thank all of our past, present, and future clients who trust us with one of the most risky and costly investments they will ever make in their lives. We are extremely thankful that we’ve been able to build a company from humble beginnings to where we are now and it wouldn’t be without our past and present clients advocating for us and future clients understanding the value of what we offer to an industry filled with misinformation and bad apples. It has not gone unnoticed and we cannot say thank you enough.
We invite you to check out some of our collaborations with some of the biggest news and media outlets out there and we hope you find value in the topics we’ve been able to be part of!
