selections with clients. We have 40 different styles of cabinet doors, we have a large variety of interior doors, we have samples of virtually everything.” “A client can come here and pick every single thing they want for their house without having to go shopping around at specific flooring or cabinet centers. Of course, they have the option to go look elsewhere if they can’t find something they like here, but that doesn’t happen often because we make it so easy.” New Dawn also employs five designers in-house – which, again, Josh believes is pretty unique. “I don’t know how many other local builders have their own designers on staff,” he says. “I’m sure there are some, but it’s probably not a lot. With us, clients get to work one-on-one with a designer when they are making their selections – that’s part of our fixed price.” Lastly, Rick Jensen adds that New Dawn is set apart by their quality of their work. Over the years, he says the company has built some long-lasting relationships with clients and earned a lot of work through referrals and word-of-mouth – and that wouldn’t be possible if their end-product didn’t meet expectations. “And we don’t just meet expectations, we exceed them,” Rick says. “We perform at a higher level than people expect. When customers see the quality of our finishes, they’re usually blown away.” To ensure their finished product is delivered to such a high standard, New Dawn relies on their highly-experienced and highly-talented site staff. That includes their site superintendents and labourers, as well as their extended roster of subcontractors and trades. On the subcontractor side, Rick says that New Dawn has been working with some of their partners for almost 30 years. Many they have been working with for over a decade. One key partner, for example, is Archdesign Cabinetry – a locally-based company that offers full-service residential and commercial cabinetry capabilities, from design and engineering to project management and custom cabinetry installation. Over the years, theyhavedeliveredawide variety of jobs in the Kootenays, and they have become known for the precision and high quality of their product. New Dawn relies on them to meet their custom cabinetry needs. “We look for trades that can deliver quality and that can handle volume,” Rick explains. “When we find those trades, we stick with them. We help them grow. We support them. We pay them on time. Because we do that, we have developed a really solid, loyal trade base.” THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE CANADA
