Kip H & Kelly F

Paul held himself to a high standard and ensured that quality work was done. We thank God for Jami, their designer. She had good ideas, listened to us, and delivered on the functionality while also making our kitchen and home look pretty. Pinnacle’s Site Supervisor, Brennan, answered questions and was very professional. He found solutions and got things done. He always talked to us and was detail-oriented. We have already recommended Pinnacle Group because they are ethical and solution-oriented. Pinnacle did the project on time and with quality. We could trust them, and the whole team is great. You pay a premium price with Pinnacle, but it is money well spent, and they deal with issues professionally.

Ken L, SE Calgary

The renovation with the Pinnacle Group was a great experience! What I liked is that Pinnacle Group's renovation consultant, Bal, and all the Pinnacle staff took great interest in my project. The impact is that I felt valued as a person.The biggest value experienced was the collaborative approach of the Pinnacle Group Team. We could all make suggestions, listen to options and then make a decision that made the most sense. We worked together to find the best solution. Their site supervisor, Shane, informed me of what trades would come the next day. Their communication was extremely helpful. They stuck to the schedule and budget. I generally knew what I wanted but there were times I didn't know the path to proceed. It was guidance and suggestions of Robin, Pinnacle designer, that got us where we are. One of the key parts of the project was putting in an ensuite and I hadn't had one before. I didn't know how to make it happen, but Robin came up with a good design. I am not sure I could have done it without Robin. Both bathrooms have new custom cabinets. Whenever I got into a project of this magnitude I am concerned about cost, but as we were going through the process it was very clear that quality was maybe the most important thing for me. What also helped is that I was getting work done in a professional and cooperative manner. Part of what was ensuring the quality was the SCC Guarantee and the management of the project. I quickly got over the overall cost as it became clear that I had hired a good company who would deliver what we designed and take us smoothly to the end. We are really happy with the result.

Derek T, Dewinton, AB

I found the owner of Pinnacle Group, Paul, to be excellent to deal with. I have already referred him and Pinnacle to others because the design is great and aligns with what we want. They do good work and are willing to commit to a completion date. No one else out there is willing to do that. If their company is so confident that they will commit to a date, then I am confident enough to work with them. It wasn't right on but it was close, and that is all that matters to me. Pinnacle's designer, Jami, is great to work with. She listened and understood what we wanted. She has a great vision and understands the options. We just signed up with Pinnacle Group again yesterday to do more work. My experience with Pinnacle is that they are the best; they are fast, efficient and do very good work.

Tiffany & Ryan C

The SCC Guarantee was the main reason we chose Pinnacle Group. No one else would guarantee a start and finish date. Jami is very good at what she does. She thinks functionally and from an ‘aging in place’ perspective. We have a future proof design. When there were hiccups, Paul and his project manager immediately took responsibility and communicated a resolution plan. The finished product is better than anything that we have seen or were expecting. The Pinnacle staff made it so we could trust them and have faith they would get it all done. If someone wants a renovation done on time and on budget, they should choose Pinnacle Group Renovations.

Cynthia & David P

We trust them, and that’s everything. They didn’t always try to be right, but listened and were fair to deal with. Paul, the owner, has a good handle on the trades and sub-trades. He knows his business very well. Jami is a wonderful designer, patient, always very helpful, and open to feedback. We love Pinnacle Site Supervisors, Brennan and Grant. They were patient and would explain everything. They were also open to moving things or making changes for us. Pinnacle did an outstanding job. We can tell by the feedback from our family and friends how impressed they are.

Grace G

They were friendly, professional, and we enjoyed the experience. Brennan and Grant, the site supervisors, were warm, friendly, and really down to earth. They explained things in a way I could understand and would resolve any concerns I had during the process. We recommend Pinnacle for the quality of workmanship, their timelines, and good communication. When I recommend them to my friends and neighbors, I tell them you have to pay for quality. We ended up renovating the whole house and got our money’s worth.

Randy and Barb W

From our conversation, I got a good sense of his character. He was genuine and trustworthy, so we proceeded with Pinnacle. The group as a whole was fantastic. The project was on time and on budget. The way Brennan and Grant, the site supervisors, handled themselves was great. When there were issues, Brennan and Grant listened, and they delivered what they said they would.

Erik & Bonnie F

Our decision was based on our previous experience and the relationship we have with the Pinnacle Group. We would definitely recommend them, and we already have. We knew they had a high level of knowledge and expertise with wheelchair needs and accessibility needs. They take a thoughtful and caring approach and consider all aspects of a person’s needs. They are good people to work with; we are friends and can relate to them. They do good work and have an eye for details as well as aesthetics. We are ecstatic with the result! Most days we spend a lot of time in our ensuite. Our ensuite and the time we spent in it used to be a real energy drain for us, but now it is so much more livable and enjoyable.

Deborah and Dean S

We liked the personalities of Paul, Pinnacle Group’s owner, Brennan, their site supervisor, and Jami, their designer, as well as attending the Pinnacle open houses. We wanted an established company because we were having a load-bearing post removed and needed to make sure the company was legit. We value the quality of the reno and working with Jami. Brennan gave good suggestions too, like the pantry redesign. We actually miss interacting with Brennan, Jami, and the team! Pinnacle was pleasant to work with, and the quality is great. We are happy with our reno.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much does a house addition cost in Calgary?

The cost of a home addition in Calgary is influenced by five key factors: size, complexity, wet space or dry space (IE Plumbing or not), quality of build (IE product & structure specifications), and foundation type. With the exception of a cantilever bump out or mudroom suspended on a bracket system, all additions with a foundation will exceed 100k+. Additional features and size can raise costs to well into the 200k range and for some, considerably more.

What is the Cost of a Home Addition in Calgary, Alberta?

What is considered a house addition when renovating?

There are three types of house additions that we reference. The first is suspended on a bracket system (like a cantilever protruding 36" or less). The second is one supported by a new full basement foundation or piling system. The third is an addition above current living space (for example above a garage or a 2 storey addition to current structure).

What is the most expensive part of a home addition?

The primary cost drivers for a house addition is the size and if it involves a development permit or not, the foundation type (pilings or full basement) and the structure and product specifications.

What's the difference between a renovation and a remodel?

They are different names for the same thing. In Canada the term renovation is much more prevalent, while in the USA the term remodel is used more frequently.

EXECUTION

We work with a seasoned management and ownership team, and carefully vetted trades and suppliers to then expedite your project as efficiently and seamlessly as possible, with an absolute commitment to deliver on our promises.

PREPARATION

Designers and Build teams work in unison, eliminating the confusion and problems associated with the old-school home remodeling ensuring budgets actually align with final designs.

COMMUNICATION

We continually communicate with each other – and with you – throughout both the Design and Build process. Regular check-ins and status updates along with our Builder Trend customer portal gives you peace of mind, and confidence throughout the renovation or build journey.

WHAT WE DO FOR BASEMENT DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

For example, we will assess any construction-related deficiencies that are part of the basement’s foundation or lack thereof. This can save you significant money now and in the future and prevent a situation where your new basement development must be redone or removed due to moisture penetration from underground; creating mold and mildew damage to your property.

Pinnacle Group will check the grade surrounding your home to determine if poor outside drainage factors could cause leaks into your Calgary basement during heavy rains or snow and ice thawing conditions. Our professional, high tech equipment allows us to detect moisture behind your basement walls, as well as under your concrete flooring.

Proper ventilation for your furnace in your basement is another priority; structural choices and building materials are a direct influence on fire prevention in your basement environment.

In addition, we are fully versed on all City of Calgary building codes and policies regarding basement developments Calgary which will influence many aspects of your renovation design, including decisions regarding your ceiling height. With this understanding in mind, we can help determine the right plan to ensure both your needs and those of the City are legally met.

CUSTOM CABINETRY FOR BASEMENT

This is a common issue consumer’s experience when undertaking their Calgary basement development project, because delays in cabinetry are often what bring home renovation projects to a grinding halt; resulting in cost over-runs and missed completion dates.
