Client Reflections
Just finished a kitchen update with SevernWoods and the results exceeded my expectations! The team was skilled, professional and a pleasure to work with.

I recently completed a full home renovation with SevernWoods, specifically working with Jonathan and his team, and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. The attention to detail and quality of workmanship were both exceptional. What really made working with SevernWoods a pleasure was the outstanding project management and communication throughout the process. Jonathan kept everything on schedule, provided regular updates and was proactive in solving any issues before they became real problems. It was a true pleasure working with such a reliable and professional team; I would definitely recommend them.
Jenny A.Severnwoods and Jonathan specifically with his stellar team of Ray and Dérion were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Jonathan was always responsive, detail-oriented, and quick to take action whenever something came up. His professionalism and organization made the entire building process smooth and stress-free. The result is a stunning home that everyone compliments — a true reflection of their dedication and craftsmanship
Parker S.SevernWoods had done 3 renovations for us at our former Playter Estates house, and the team just completed a 4th, in our just-purchased condominium in Forest Hill. Jonathan, the project manager, and his extremely able lieutenant Ray, have done a spectacular job, using highly skilled trades, and giving their all to make our apartment chic and beautiful. We absolutely love living in it. Humor is always a good thing: Jonathan Kerr, a great guy and the hardest working, most organized PM, always announces himself by saying, "Ta DA," and opening his arms. Thank-you, SevernWoods!
Jane H.We recently completed a near full-gut renovation with SevernWoods, and the experience exceeded every expectation. The project was finished in half the time other builders had estimated, yet the quality of the result is the best we’ve seen—even compared to many high-end homes we visited in person.
Jonathan and his team were exceptional: fast and efficient yet deliberate, consistently responsive, transparent, and deeply experienced. They collaborate with trades who clearly take pride in their craft, delivering top-tier workmanship throughout. If you’re pursuing a high-end renovation and already have a clear vision of what you want, I doubt you’ll find a better partner than SevernWoods Fine Homes.
JC H.Severn Woods is a top notch, five-star construction company. While smaller projects aren't typically in their scope, we were thrilled that they agreed to take on our 'little' laneway house project. We benefited from their roster of loyal tradespeople who did outstanding work and managed to stay on time and on budget despite the pandemic. Their crews were kind and courteous - we actually enjoyed seeing them in our backyard every day! Laneway housing is somewhat new in Toronto but they were patient as we navigated the process and we are thrilled with what we built together. Their guidance and expertise were invaluable!
