Kip and team at North Echo completely designed, planned, and completed our once in a generation cottage rebuild/expansion, boathouse, and guest cottage... and did an incredible job! I honestly can't say enough. The nicest and most professional people. Total financial transparency, and organization. There every time when they said they would be. Completed on time and exactly on budget. Everyone comments on how incredible the quality of workmanship is, and asks "who did this for you!?". North Echo took care of every permit and planning application, engineering requirement and design detail/order and delivery... to our island! And we didn't need to lift a finger. Just pick the style we want, approve decisions, and they took it from there. Muskoka's best kept secret! Or maybe not so much a secret anymore? Kip and his team at North Echo.

Having worked with different contractors over the years it was a real pleasure to deal with Kip and his team. Everyone who worked on our project was friendly, professional and clearly committed to doing a quality job. Our home was completed on time, on budget and the caliber of work was exceptional.

Aside from their professional integrity as builders North Echo is also committed to after sales service. Any issues that arise after the project its complete are dealt with quickly and completely. This commitment to customer satisfaction is truly what separates them from their competitors. We enthusiastically recommend them to anyone thinking of starting a construction project.

I have had a very positive experience working with Kip, Val and the North Echo team. I met them over a decade ago when they built a cottage for us. A few years ago they completed a renovation/addition to the property...and on top of that they have taken care of all property maintenance and organized other local specialty contractors to make sure our place is always in great condition. Couldn't do Muskoka without them!!!

It was a pleasure to deal with Kip and his team at North Echo. Our cottage project was not only on time and on budget, the quality of work was exceptional.

As good as the building process was, the best part has been North Echo’s commitment to follow up. Any issue, no matter how small, is dealt with quickly and efficiently. I could not recommend anyone any better if someone wants to start a new building project.
