What customers are saying
Real stories from real clients. Here’s what people have shared about working with us and the results we helped bring to life.
The DBK Team was completely professional and wonderful to deal with. From the first meeting with our consultant to the numerous planning sessions, questions, revisions to the last day when they finished the project and the crew left, we could not be any happier. Special thanks to Stephanie and Nick, thank you!

We used DBK to replace our old, ugly tub with a beautiful new shower. We also had them redo the tile on the floor. We were very happy with the process from the design work done by the talented Sara to the finishing/tidyiing details done by Charles. Simon did a fantastic job of keeping us up to date on what was happening next. Kudos to O’Reilly (Asbestos abatement), Dan, Manny, Michael and especially Charles. A great group of hardworkers. This has been one of the best run projects that I have ever been a part of. We highly recommend using them!
Chris Koebel
With the professional help of Kelly Ouellette had our small corner shower removed and replaced with a beautiful 36″ x 60″ shower. Kelly helped us with choices of tiles etc. Service was polite and courteous with work being done in precisely time and schedule. Workers were always on time. Very happy with experience.

DBK replaced the shower in my ensuite bathroom. The work was completed on schedule we are very pleased with the outcome. A few weeks later I had a minor issue with a rust stain. Contacted DBK on a Monday and by Friday the issue was rectified. I must say that this is the best after sales service I have ever received from any contractor I have dealt with. I would not hesitate to recommend DBK.

Huguette and I had our kitchen and three bathrooms completely renovated. Sara Akra was our designer for all the projects and we were very pleased with the design and results. Thanks also to the excellent team of coordinators, schedulers and workers who were in our home for 7 weeks until completion. We knew everyone by name and are very pleased with the high standards and excellent workmanship the workers displayed at all times.

I’ve heard horror stories about kitchen projects lasting so much longer than what was originally anticipated and to my surprise, even after encountering major structural issues, the time frame was met. I was so thankful to have chosen a large company that has all the staff needed to address any issue.
From the design meetings (Amazing designer: Kelly Ouellette) to the finished product (Thank you Joel and team), the experience with Distinctive was fantastic! It’s simply a well managed company (Dominic Manzo is extremely well organized and very pleasant to deal with) that hires true professionals to complete every step of your project. We will be starting our second project with them in the spring! I could not recommend them more!

We had our ensuite bathroom renovated. DBK did an amazing job. Excellent workmanship and well coordinated throughout the project. Friendly, courteous and very clean after each work day. Great Company to deal with. Highly recommend them you won’t be disappointed. Dennis and Debbie Charette.
Dennis Charette
One of the best renovation experiences I’ve had! The entire crew was incredibly friendly and professional. Tanya was exceptional in helping us design our dream bathroom to our exact liking. Although bathroom renovations aren’t something we undertake every day or even every year, I’m confident that I’ll return for any future renovation projects. Highly recommended!
