Daxter and Emily Granlin | Pacific Group Developments

Our experience with Kelsey and Pacific Group Developments began when we ran into unexpected problems with yet another renovation project in our older victoria home - our septic system. Due to the nature of the septic project, and the fact that we have young children and dogs, we wanted it dealt with quickly, and were pleasantly surprised that Kelsey responded quickly to our request and showed up when expected. He took the time to talk to us and clearly outline our septic system options, while coming up with solutions to creatively address our specific needs and limitations. He squeezed us into a full schedule because of our situation and they were completed ahead of schedule and under budget - a first for us during our 6 years of renovations. Throughout the process everyone involved was knowledgeable, professional, and went above and beyond anything we had expected. We are grateful for everything Kelsey and his crew have done for us, and we are happy to recommend their services!

We have passion for property development!

Pacific Group Developments Reviews

Pacific Group Developments went above and beyond at every step of a large, lengthy and messy job involving new drain tiles, concrete retaining walls, concrete driveway, concrete sidewalks, landscaping, concrete removal, excavation and a new lawn that at no point seemed to want to go the way it should have due to weather.

Kelsey is very well connected which helped move things along quicker a few different times and he worked as a great middleman between myself (The seller) of the property and the purchaser of the property. I am planning on using Pacific Group Developments on future projects and I would highly recommend their services.

Thanks again Kelsey.

Pacific Group Developments was contracted to replace my aging, collapsing, concrete driveway. There were some challenges to this project as it is a steeply sloped concrete driveway of about 1000 square feet, with a couple of interesting grades hat had to be managed for water run-off and to accommodate a Telus basin and water main. There were also challenges to overcome when we saw the condition of the prep work done for the previous concrete driveway. They gave me a clear estimate and assessment of what was required and noted explicitly what he thought we might run into that would change the initial cost. As the project unfolded they kept me informed of what they were finding and what they planned to do about it. They kept us involved appropriately along the way and invited me to monitor their work. Although we had to wait for the right weather to do the concrete pour and concrete finishing, it was worth it. The team of concrete finishers were excellent, and we could not be happier with our new concrete driveway. The concrete driveway has never looked better,all of the grade challenges were addressed, and the job was hassle free. Everything was cleaned, and aside from the new concrete driveway, you would never know they were here. The staff was excellent to work with. They were patient with my questions and happy to give us whatever information we needed to understand what was going on with the project. They may not be the biggest contractor in town, but they did a great job and I am happy to recommend them.

We hired Pacific Group Developments to decommission and remove a very large commercial fuel oil tank that was sitting above ground on our property. They did a first-rate job. Kelsey and his company are extremely professional, courteous, hard-working and knowledgeable. We appreciate being kept informed throughout the process. It was a real pleasure to do business with them and we highly recommend Pacific Group Developments.

In addition, they offered to rip out and clear over an acre of broom with their excavator, which was already on our property for the tank removal. This is something we have wanted to deal with since we moved here. With their usual dedication and follow-through, Kelsey even spent a good part of Sunday finishing the job. Most of the broom plants were taller than the excavator so we will be burning them for some time but we are thrilled to have this part of our property cleared of a very invasive plant.

Thanks again, Guys, for your wonderful work!

Pacific Group Developments saved a real estate sale for us by removing a large amount of oil contaminated soil in a very timely manner. It was caused by a buried oil tank which had leaked at our house in Victoria. We encountered some problems along the way, (the house foundation needed to be supported during excavation) but Kelsey was quick to solve them. His crew were great bunch of guys, all work was above and beyond our expectations and I highly recommend them.

Thanks Again

Pacific Group Developments went above and beyond my expectations. They took on much more responsibility than I ever expected them to and took a lot of the weight and stress off my shoulders. I can't explain how much of a help that was for me through this frustrating, and upsetting process. I bought my house from someone that concealed many defects and were not found during the home inspection. My house turned out to be a disaster every thing from a new concrete foundation, perimeter drains, re framing, new basement suite, tunneling under my house etc and never once did I feel anything but 100% confident that the job would get done, and get done to the highest standard.

Kelsey and his crew take pride in their work, and won't settle for anything less than perfection. I am so happy to have found such a reliable and professional company. I was kept in the loop from start to finish even when the information was way over my head.

Trust is a very important thing when it comes to people working on your home (especially when the budget spins out of control) and I can definitely say that I trusted Kelsey to make the right call in every situation that came up. I will be using Pacific Group Developments again and again, and I will recommend them to everyone I know. I feel a company like Pacific Group Developments is hard to find, and thank goodness I found them!
