Association of Heath Organizations - Four Storey Office Facility Renovation
Bedford, NS
... Avondale provided services throughout all phases of the project: contract documentation, tender, contract award and purchasing, construction, pre-operation testing and commissioning, project take-over ... their primary responsibilities were as follows: project planning, project scheduling, project estimating, project budgeting/cost control, project documentation, tendering and award procedures including procurement, contract administration, expediting, construction planning and administration, safety administration, quality control procedures ... our project required precise timing and extremely tight deadlines as we had sold our existing facility and had to be into our new building on a fixed date ... Avondale Construction Limited was very professional and was sensitive to our needs. They paid close attention to quality, maintained all commitments made regarding the schedule, and brought the project in on budget. We would not hesitate to recommend them to you.

Sperry & Partners LTD. - Rosaria Kitchen and Dining Room
Mount Saint Vincent University
Halifax, NS
... Avondale undertook a difficult and complex renovation of the Rosaria Kitchen and Dining Room Facility at Mount Saint Vincent University in Halifax, Nova Scotia during the summer and early fall of 1995 based on our drawings. We found their work ethic excellent, their representatives made themselves available when required and returned telephone calls promptly and their paperwork was carefully prepared and accurate ... we would not hesitate to work with them again and recommend them to you without reservation.
