What Our Clients Say

“From the very first meeting, Maz and the Prestiga team earned our trust through their professionalism and preparation. Maz personally attended every discussion fully briefed on the plans and documents, and his budgets were always meticulous and transparent. Throughout the build, he provided live updates and handled invoices with care.

This was our first time building a custom home and it was particularly complex due to intricate interior designs and material choices. What we appreciated most was Maz’s ability to truly understand our preferences and raise potential challenges early, preventing issues before they ever occurred. This also made him a pleasure to work with alongside our architect, interior designer, neighbours and even the city officials – all of whom clearly respected his professionalism.

Many builders advertise their experience and overpromise results, but Prestiga consistently performed above and beyond our expectations. A standout example was how Maz leveraged his long-standing relationships with trades, saving us a significant portion of our costs while maintaining exceptional workmanship at every stage. His attention to detail and solutions-oriented mindset gave us complete confidence that our Forest Hill home would stand the test of time. Every decision felt considered, and every challenge was met with clarity and expertise. We couldn’t have asked for a more capable or trustworthy partner in bringing our home to life.”

We had the privilege to work with Maz from Prestiga.

We completed a midsize renovation in 2024. We had never worked with a contractor before so at first like anyone we had a reservations.

When we met Maz, there was an immediate sense of trust, and clearly our instincts were correct. He is one of the classiest, intelligent and trustworthy contractors we could ever have imagined to work with. His expertise with his prior background as an engineer shined through. His design sense and ability to advocate for and work with his clients was on full display for the six months that we worked together. He was present. He was exactly as he said he would be. He was there checking on things. Day be day.  Incredibly detail focus.

When you work with the contractor, you want them to be a perfectionist. You want to feel like they are coordinating the renovation for their own house.  Maz is the consummate perfectionist. He looks after his clients.  He worked incredibly well with our designer and he brought forth a fantastic team of subcontractors.  Yet, he was clearly always on your side.  A fierce negotiator who understood our budget and expectations.  He just gets it. He always puts us first and understood us. He is a man of his word, and integrity.

When we reflect back on our experience together, it was nothing but positive. When I think about deliverables, I think about three things. Firstly, was he accurate and realistic with the timeframe he set forth? Secondly, were we able to stay within the budget we agreed to ex ante. Lastly, did the two of us enjoy the process and remain happy throughout?  He clearly accomplished and three. We would never take on any work again without using Maz.

When I reflect on our first meeting, I remember something he said. He said “I will always be here to look after your house. I will get to know your house and I will always make sure my work stands to my word”. In the nearly  two years since the job was completed, he continues to be there for us. More importantly, he frequently drops by for a coffee to catch up when he is in the area.  A true friendship and bond was created.
 
Maz is a consummate pro. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone who is looking for a high end contractor.

Maz has brought a rare combination of expertise, integrity, and genuine dedication to my project. His deep understanding of the technical nuances involved in building a high-end, functional, elegant, and energy-efficient home has been invaluable. Throughout the design phase, he helped me think through variables and considerations that most people wouldn’t even spot; saving me time, money, and potential issues down the road. His knowledge and instincts consistently elevate the quality of any decision we make.

Beyond his skill set, Maz is honest, approachable, and incredibly easy to work with; qualities that matter immensely when you’re trusting someone with something as personal and long-term as renovating or building your new home. He has already made crucial revisions to my build plan for my new home in Virginia, and I value his judgment so highly that I’ll be flying him to the U.S. throughout the construction process to help oversee the build and serve as my quality-assurance lead. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a builder who truly cares about the outcome. Maz builds truly beautiful forever homes, not just houses.
