Real Burlington Results: Spotlight on Kelly’s Bake Shoppe

“We used Davies GC for the build of our second location (a commercial bakery in Oakville) and we were not disappointed! Everything flowed seamlessly, with Mark Davies looking after every detail of this build-out. We completed it in record time and nailed the completion date! It was exciting, tense times, and we did it! Workmanship and trades were EXCELLENT – very kind and considerate. I cannot recommend this general contractor enough – 10 stars!”

Our 5-Step Commercial Renovation Process

1

Planning

We start with a discovery call and site consultation to understand your business vision, operational requirements, and budget. You receive a clear estimate and digital proposal so you know what to expect from day one, setting up a successful commercial renovation project or commercial construction project.

2

Design

Collaborate with our expert team, your architect or interior designer to finalize layouts, select materials, and personalize every detail for branding, customer flow, and specialized uses (e.g., office renovation, restaurant renovation). Once satisfied, we outline a full plan, firm pricing, and a detailed schedule.

3

Preparation

Once your design is locked in, we take care of all logistics—permits, regulatory approvals, coordination with landlords or property managers, and pre-ordering long-lead materials. Phasing and scheduling ensure work begins efficiently and safely for all occupants of the commercial property.

4

Construction

Our skilled commercial crew prepares your space with protection for finishes, public/common areas, and operating businesses. We maintain a safe and clean jobsite throughout the construction phase, providing regular progress updates while always respecting your staff, tenants, and customers.

5

Completion

After construction, we walk the completed space with you, handle final adjustments, and deliver your close-out package with occupancy documentation, warranties, and care instructions. We leave your business move-in ready with a professional deep clean and stay on call for any follow-up.
