Scot-Build Developments Inc.

We highly recommend Scot-Build! Scott worked with us closely every step of the way - from the planning phase right through to the completion of our dream home. Scott is well respected in the construction community and has a great relationship with his trades. Covid hit halfway through the build, Scott worked with the trades to ensure they felt comfortable and followed protocol to ensure the safety of everyone involved. Everything came together seamlessly. His communication skills are amazing and his support after-completion was outstanding. If you want someone to work closely with on your project who you can trust - call Scot-Build.

Scott Young and the terrific Scot-Build crew have just completed a beautiful "new build" for us, start to finish, and we cannot imagine having a better building experience. Scott himself combines old-school and old-world craft ethics with knowledge of the latest building techniques and sustainable/environmental building practices, and has a savvy design sense (check out magazine and TV coverage of his own house) . He is resourceful and ingenious, and has the equanimity and sense of humour to steer everyone (including the owners!) through the inevitable ups and downs of a big project. The job was very professionally managed, and the site was well-organized and well-run. We had heard from previous clients of Scot-Build that Scott is particularly skilled at budgeting, and this was true. The detailed budget was costed out down to the sub-trades and any cost overruns were the result of agreed-upon changes during the build process. The job was delivered in the time frame anticipated with the exception of some extreme-weather delays. The firm is big enough to have a stable crew (meticulous workers, good problem solvers, super-pleasant guys), and the local tradespeople brought in for specific jobs (tiling, cabinetry, stonework, etc.) all were excellent at their work. This is an A+++ recommendation. We would be delighted to supply more detailed references and could be contacted through Scot-Build.

Easy to work with, very few issues arose but when they did they were quickly and professionally resolved or dealt with.
Scott's primary crew were pleasant, professional and worked hard.
Any sub trades brought in were again very good to excellent.
When we were sent to material suppliers to pick products and identified who we were working with we would always hear the comment " you are working with one of the good contractors", we came to the same conclusion.
It should also be noted that throughout a very extensive renovation, Scott's crew and sub contractors were very accommodating to the fact that "we lived on site".
The renovation was completed with very few surprises and within the budget forecast.

Often you hear horror stories associated with Building a property but we managed to come out from under ours unscathed. Scot-Build, Scott Young & Team exceeded expectations. They bring a lot to the table from creative design and workmanship. Talented Trades people are at a premium in The Blue Mountain region and Scott’s team was 2nd to none. This became apparent because of the mutual respect between Builder & Trades Person. Compliments to Scott as even the tough conversations ended well with logical solutions. His team remained focused on the completion date without compromising workmanship. Scott & team are true professionals and we’re very pleased with the end result and equally appreciative on how diligent they’ve been with any issue’s we’ve had with the property after move in. Building a home is an arduous task for all parties but if we venture that direction a 2nd time Scot-Build will be our first call.

Scot Builds amazing homes. I would recommend him to everyone. I have been in several of his homes over the past few years and I can't wait to see the Longhouses.

They say renovating can be one of the most stressful experiences of your life. But Scott, the owner of Scot-Build, and his team of professional trades, makes the experience 100 times less stressful, and actually enjoyable. Scott thinks of absolutely everything, makes you feel very special as the client, taken care of. He never lets you down. He is genuine, and his work is exceptional. Plus, Scott makes it fun. Great sense of humour and you can't help but love the Scottish accent. Our renovation and addition was a big project and was completed over the span of two years. I am happy to report that Scott was consistent throughout --- solid, dependable, honest, loyal, and trustworthy. If you think of the best characteristics a human can possess, Scott has them. Truly a great leader. His trades: very professional and caring. Small things make a big difference too: They remove their boots before entering the finished house, and they sweep up the dust when they complete a job. Small details, big difference. If I ever build again, (but I won't because Scot-Build did such a great job) I will be using Scot-Build.

Scot-build did a renovation on my 100 year old country home. Scot and his crew were amazing, they came in on budget and on time! ( that was a first for me,) the crew was pro and they cared about my home , the work done has been put though the test of time and everything works perfectly, Thank you Scot-build for the stress free revocation! Looking forward to working with you again in the future.
