Sensus Design Studio

Thank you John-Luke and Jessie for giving my company the opportunity to do work with you. Reading all these reviews i was first hesitant about doing with sensus, but as a subcontractor i had no issues what so ever in getting paid on Time. I did find Sensus very meticulous and picky when it came to workmanship which did cause some back and forth from us, but as a subcontractor i understand that they are looking out for the homeowners best interest.I hope you were happy with our work and hopefully we can start our next project ASAP.

John-Luke and the team at Sensus Design & Build built our family's custom home. Having moved into our home for more than a year, I can say that my family and I are very happy with the end result of this project. The home construction process is a process that is very stressful and inevitably comes with several ups and downs but working with Sensus made the process significantly easier. A special thanks to Kyle, our project manager, for being so responsive and being receptive of any concerns we had throughout the process. Also a special thanks to Zaeba, our interior designer, for bringing our vision to life. I would highly recommend Sensus Design & Builder for your construction management and interior design needs!

Sensus design (John-Luke) has been very professional and responsive to us. John-Luke worked hard to present us with a feasible project plan, scope & budget for our rebuild. He answered all our questions (and there were many!), was patient with us and very thorough. Due to Covid19, we've had to postpone our project, but all our workings and dealings with Sensus to date have been great.

Working with john and jesse was an absolute good experience, they have decent ideas and also listen to our needs very carefully, they completed 100% of our desired goals! Construction quality and design are very nice and I would strongly recommend to anyone

We finished designing and building our first custom home projct with Sensus last year and overall it was a really good experience. Almost as soon as we started construction, the world shut down due to covid and there were supply chain issues with raw materials. We were really worried that we would have big delays and cost overruns, but Sensus did a good job of making sure that we had all the materials we needed on time, and kept everything moving, doing their best to keep the costs under control as much as possible.We built this house to sell so we were looking for a design and layout that would be very appealing to potential buyers, but we didn’t want it to look like a spec house, we wanted it to look like a custom home. Jesse was great to work with on the architectural and interior design and we are really happy with the finished results. The layout is open and spacious, the materials selected have a high end look but were in line with our budget. All of the bedrooms have built-in closets and the ensuite bathrooms all have different finishes.We are busy people and didn’t want to have to stress about this build on a daily basis. John-Luke and his team was great at managing everything so that we could be hands off, but was always available when we needed him, and his team has been quick to respond to our post construction needs. We will definitely use Sensus in our future personal builds and recommend that you work with these two brothers if you want someone who is in control, thoughtful, and well planned.

I worked with Sensus Design for an addition on my home. Their architect was very professional and knowledgable. He listened to my wishes and incorporated everything I wanted and also advised me well. The sessions were productive and they were always available if I had questions. Great overall experience. good quality work and value. I would highly recommend them!

Custom dream home with Sensus Design Studio, John Luke and Jesse a dream team in design, interiors and construction build.We built our home with Sensus Design Studio during the height of the pandemic, we faced external challenges from city closures, permit delays and material/labour costs. John Luke and his team assured us by keeping close to permits, zoning, trade negotiations, working with the city to get it all processed efficiently. Before building, we did our due diligence with Sensus after seeing their projects and timely execution with neighbours. We were nervous, busy professionals with Pinterest boards full of transitional modern ideas and we needed an experienced team with a full service approach. Jesse brought our vision to life with in-depth architectural designs and critical reviews through many edits. The interior design team with Sensus were both collaborative and creative. They chose materials within our budget and scaled back areas to manage pandemic inflationary pressures. Tara their team coordinator, deserves an honourable mention as she is an incredible communicator to support all project time lines, budget questions and keeping construction progress in order. We are super happy living in our space some of the best features include the beautiful brick details, tons of natural light, chef’s kitchen, primary bath with luxurious hotel details, yoga/gym studio, and heated floors in the basement. Working with John Luke and Jesse gave us comfort and confidence, they have respectful working relations with their trades and even questions we have ongoing they are readily available to answer.Thanks so much John Luke, Jesse and the Sensus team!

John-Luke and Jessie helped my husband and I design our absolute dream home! They were professional and helped us through each step of the process. This was our first time doing any sort of home design and they designed something beyond our expectations. We met with over a dozen different architects before landing on Sensus and would not hesitate to hire them again for another project in the future! I’m not going to sugar coat it, the build can become long and frustrating but the designing phase prepared us for all sorts of difficulties that we would eventually come upon. John Luke even recommended us with some great contractors when we were stuck at various stages of our build. They truly wanted to ensure that it was completed in the way we all envisioned and they went above and beyond!

Continue to be impressed with the whole end to end team at Sensus - starting with Design, they have all the capabilities in-house to complete a custom home build or renovation. Easy to work with and very collaborative team!

Sensus has designed a new three-story custom house for my family. We are very pleased with the progress and the outcome. The entire process was well managed and delivered smoothly, as it had been described to us by John-Luke at the outset. Through several interviews and iterative discussions, our conceptual plan was translated into a very professional set of drawings and details, addressing a big wish list of all family members! Austin as the main designer has patiently provided us with progressive plans while Jesse as the lead architect has overseen the design regularly and refined it with his magic touch. Due to the City changing bylaws, we had to go through a few revisions and foot print decrease. Sensus has managed collaborating with the City and addressed their needs without compromising any of our required features. Overall, Sensus has demonstrated integrity, professionalism and excellent customer interaction. Their design is top notch and timeless. It is highly recommended working with them.
