Testimonials
Hear what past Maven Restorations clients have to say about their experience:
Dean & Kim
Remodel of Master Bathroom, Family Bathroom, New Engineered Hardwood & Trim on Second Floor
“Working with Dan was a pleasure from start to finish. He met with us a number of times to understand our vision for the space, and made suggestions on how to best approach the design; while also offering suggestions for us to stay in our budget. When he quoted the job, everything was itemized and broken down so that we knew what the various costs were for each area.
Our renovation was completed on time and on-budget, and the renovation was everything we expected and more. We would highly recommend Dan and his team if you are considering any type of renovation; large or small.”
John & Val

“We were so impressed working with Dan on our deck project. The workmanship and ideas Dan offered enhanced and improved our project. He explained the process in detail and finished on time!!! Both Valerie and I are so proud of our new living area and will continue to use him for our future home improvements. You will NOT be disappointed with the craftsmanship!!!”
Carlton Johnson
Spare Bedroom Converted to 4pc Master Bathroom & Expansion of Master Bedroom, New Floors & Trim on Second Floor
“It is my delight to recommend Maven Restorations (formally DCR Constructions) to anyone considering a renovation project.
Dan and his crew did an excellent job converting a bedroom into a bathroom on the second floor and adding a bedroom in the basement of our house. I am very impressed with the workmanship and professionalism. The project costs were within the estimate given, completed on time, and they cleaned up everyday before leaving. Dan is very trustworthy, he is a man of his words.”
James and Mary Prange
One Month Renovation, including: Removed Load Bearing Wall, New Kitchen, 400sq.ft. of Living Space Reno, Refinished Staircase, New Family Bathroom
“5 weeks and it was done – kitchen/dining room/living room transformed to one great open concept room and a complete master bath update. We believe there were some key factors to this accomplishment:
1) Communication and organization. Through text, phone, email and face-to-face, Dan kept us completely up to date on the phases of the work plan and returned answers to questions in a timely manner.
2) We built in the cost of temporary accommodation into our budget and it was well worth the extra cost. We didn’t have to live in the middle of construction, Dan’s crew could start earlier and work later. There was even work completed on the weekend. We believe the renovation would have taken many weeks longer had we chosen to remain in the home. Our home was in good hands with Dan and his crew.
3) We utilized Dan’s subcontractors. They worked well as a team and coordinated the flow of the work seamlessly. While we took on painting ourselves, it was worked into Dan’s schedule. It gave us a sense of accomplishment in participating in the project. Were we pleased … absolutely! Quality workmanship, completed on time and close to budget. There were a few changes that we requested during the process and Dan accommodated. He and his crew are very good and knowledgeable, friendly and down to earth people. We highly recommend, as Dan DELIVERS.”
Paul and Danika

Barry and Denise Bender
Timber Frame Structure over Deck with Tonge & Groove Ceiling
(A separate contractor managed project & completed deck & roofing)
“My husband and I are very pleased with the excellent workmanship of Dan Riddolls. He helped make the beautiful covered deck that we envisioned come true, using mortise and tenon construction with Douglas fir posts. Dan has perfected the ancient art of this woodworking technique. It was a real pleasure to watch him bring our dreams to reality! He was organized, efficient, and tidy in his workmanship throughout the project. He worked well with the other contractor on our home improvement project, and we are now enjoying the beautiful outdoor space that has become a real blessing to us! Based on our experience, I highly recommend Dan for any similar projects that you may be considering“
Jackie Fackoury
Extended One Month Renovation (6 weeks), including: Removing 3 Supporting Walls, Opened up Staircase, New Kitchen, 1000sq.ft. of New Floors, Bedroom conversion to Master Bathroom, Expanded Master Bedroom with Dressing Mirror Closet Doors, Custom Hardwood Stairs, Shiplap Stair wall, Post & Beam covering of Structural Members where wall was removed
“Working with Dan on a full main floor reno was so easy. The thing I most appreciated was Dan talking to me like an equal, my view mattered, and he listened to all my inquiries. He found answers if he didn’t know. He was very organized, having trades lined up weeks before and he worked on schedule right through the two month process. His work is amazing, quality sub trades, detailed to perfection! I would hire him again in a heart beat!”
Jason Koehler
Composite Deck that has partial Covered Roof Area, Glass Floor over basement Window for Natural Light. Hot Tub under roof and Power Operated Screens to keep out bugs
“Dan was an absolute pleasure to work with. The quality of his work is immaculate, and the pride he takes in construction certainly shows. Seeing the process translate from a vision in my head to the finished product - a 600+ square foot covered and screened in composite deck - we could not be happier with the end result which turned out even better than I could have hoped. We continue to get comments from people on a regular basis who are in awe of the deck when they see it. He made sure we were involved throughout the process and kept us updated along the way, ensuring our comfort and peace of mind as homeowners throughout the build. I have several future projects in mind and look forward to working with Dan on those in the future. Wholeheartedly recommend.”
