Pinnacle Group Renovations
did not manage sub-contractors
no quality control
poor design and execution
I hired Pinnacle Renovations to do a full renovation on a small office condo in Calgary, AB. As a general contractor, Pinnacle's job is to manage all aspects of a construction project, from start to finish. Their website indicates "Pinnacle’s Site Supervisor will be monitoring activity and quality control" and "after each trade and supplier has successfully completed their segment of the project, Pinnacle’s Site Supervisor conducts a Quality Control inspection". They market their services as "high-end renovations, meeting the highest standards and committed to excellence in every detail".
My experience with Pinnacle, demonstrated by emails below and the deficiencies detailed on this site, did not result in excellence.

Formal complaint
After completion, I identified a number of deficiencies. Their fixes were ineffective and in several cases actually created new issues. Over time, I identified additional deficiencies and I shared those with Paul Klassen along with my dissatisfaction with the fixes for the original deficiencies. I repeatedly requested Paul to provide proposed solutions over email and he refused. The emails from that discussion are provided below and explain how this website came to be.
I have since filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
