In the years since we met Tom, we have done many different projects from small to large. Most recently we built a new design office, just completed as I write this. The project was meticulously planned and executed by Tom. As it nears completion we are On Budget, On Time and better than promised.
Greg & Nancy Marshall
Tom Labelle, Director of Stillwater, Design Build, immediately impressed us with his open and creative approach to our project that invited a 'new and fresh' build design for our retirement home on a small Gulf Island.
Wynn and Monique
Stillwater Design Build renovated an open carport attached to my house, giving me a beautiful home office / living space. Tom and his crew were a pleasure to work with, from beginning to end.

Tom Labelle and the crew from Stillwater Design Build are brilliant craftsmen. He and his team have completed two major projects for us and we highly recommend his expertise and services. Our projects were completed on time and within budget by friendly, qualified tradespeople.
Debbie & Steve
Stillwater Design Build delivered an exceptional product and service. Tom and Tyler are skilled master carpenters who don’t cut corners and the results show. They were upfront and provided budget transparency throughout the build process, which was very refreshing.

Tom and the team at Stillwater made the process of building our new commercial space a breeze. We truly felt like he was part of our team, and we know we wouldn’t have got it done without him.

Tom did what everyone else told us was impossible - he reclaimed our century old floors, providing advice and the skills to deliver top-quality results that met our tight timelines.
