Client Reviews

★★★★★
November 2025
"D&D completely transformed our kitchen from a cramped, outdated 1990s layout into an open, modern space we actually love cooking in. The 3D design session blew us away — we could see every detail before a single cabinet was ordered. Delivered on time, on budget, and the quality of the cabinetry and quartz countertops is exceptional."
Jennifer W. Homeowner · Waterloo, ON Kitchen Renovation
★★★★★
September 2025
"Our master bathroom is now a spa. Freestanding tub, marble tile shower, frameless glass, double floating vanity — it's better than any hotel I've stayed in. Devon and David were professional throughout. The written timeline they provided was accurate to the day. I've already recommended them to three of my neighbours."
Michael S. Homeowner · Cambridge, ON Bathroom Renovation
★★★★★
August 2025
"We had engineered hardwood installed across our entire main and second floor — roughly 2,000 sq ft. The crew was punctual, incredibly tidy, and used dust barriers that kept the rest of our home completely clean. The floors are gorgeous. Seamless transitions, perfect alignment, not a squeak anywhere. Absolutely top-tier work."
Marcus & Cynthia T. Homeowners · Cambridge, ON Hardwood Flooring
★★★★★
October 2025
"I hired D&D to finish my basement — bare concrete to a full rec room, home office, and bathroom in just over three weeks. The project manager was responsive, updates came daily, and the finished space exceeded what I thought was possible. The LVP flooring, the trim work, the pot lights — everything looks professional and intentional."
Karen & Paul B. Homeowners · Kitchener, ON Basement Finishing
★★★★★
July 2025
"Crown moulding and wainscoting throughout our main floor — David helped us choose the right profile for our older Kitchener home and the craftsmanship was impeccable. Every corner is tight, every joint is seamless. Our home looks like a completely different house. Multiple guests have asked who did the work."
Anika R. Homeowner · Kitchener, ON Crown Moulding & Trim
★★★★★
June 2025
"As a property investor, I've worked with a lot of renovation contractors. D&D is in a different league. No subcontractor surprises, no timeline slippage, no quality variations between rooms. They renovated three bathrooms and the kitchen of a flip property I was working on. The resale added far more value than the renovation cost. I'm using them on my next property."
Trevor M. Property Investor · Waterloo Region Kitchen & Bathroom Renovations
★★★★★
May 2025
"I own a condo in Kitchener and wanted to upgrade the master bathroom before renting it out. D&D handled everything — new tile, vanity, lighting, and fixtures. They worked around my schedule and completed the job in four days. The before and after is dramatic. I immediately increased my rental listing rate and got applications within the first week."
Priya S. Condo Owner · Kitchener, ON Bathroom Renovation
★★★★★
April 2025
"Porcelain tile backsplash in our kitchen and large-format tile in our entryway. The precision of the work is remarkable — perfect grout lines, exact pattern matching at the corner transitions. Devon checked in personally during the installation to make sure the layout was exactly as designed. That kind of attention to detail matters."
Sandra & Rob F. Homeowners · Guelph, ON Tile & Stone
★★★★★
March 2025
"New quartz countertops and under-mount sink in our kitchen plus a matching vanity top in the main bath. The templating was precise, the installation was seamless, and the seams are virtually invisible. Pricing was transparent with no surprise add-ons. David followed up the week after to make sure everything was perfect. Small detail, huge impression."
Yolanda K. Homeowner · Waterloo, ON Countertops & Vanities
★★★★★
February 2025
"We had pot lights added throughout our main floor — 28 in total — plus a new pendant cluster over the kitchen island. The transformation from old flat fixtures to this layered lighting is incredible. Our home feels twice as large and warmer than it ever has. Clean work, no drywall mess left behind. Highly recommend."
James & Colleen P. Homeowners · Cambridge, ON Lighting Upgrades
★★★★★
January 2025
"Full kitchen gut renovation — new layout, custom shaker cabinets, quartz waterfall island, backsplash tile, pot lights, and LVP flooring. It took four weeks and they hit the date exactly. The 3D mock-up David did before we started was incredibly accurate. My friends and family have visited just to see the kitchen. It's genuinely stunning work."
Mei-Lin C. Homeowner · Kitchener, ON Kitchen Renovation
★★★★★
December 2024
"I was nervous about renovating while living in the home with two young kids. D&D's dust containment system was genuinely impressive — the rest of the house stayed completely clean throughout a three-week kitchen renovation. Daily tidying, friendly crew, respectful of our space. I can't say enough positive things about the experience and the result."
Natasha V. Homeowner · Waterloo, ON Kitchen Renovation
★★★★★
January 2025
"We hired D&D for a full main floor renovation — new hardwood flooring, kitchen cabinet refresh, pot lights throughout, and a new tile foyer. The project was scoped, designed, and completed in five weeks. What made the difference was Devon's single-project-manager approach — one person I could call at any time who knew the full status of everything. The quality is exceptional and the process was stress-free."
Brian & Elaine K. Homeowners · Waterloo, ON Full Floor Renovation
★★★★★
November 2024
"D&D completed a full primary en suite renovation — walk-in glass shower with large-format porcelain tile, freestanding soaker tub, double floating vanity, and heated floor. The precision of the tile work is remarkable — zero lippage, perfect grout lines, and the heated floor thermostat was programmed and explained before they left. I've worked with renovation contractors for 20 years and this is the highest quality bathroom work I've seen."
Rachel T. Homeowner · Kitchener, ON Master Bathroom
★★★★★
October 2024
"We had engineered hardwood installed on our main floor and new LVP in the basement in a single project. The crew coordinated both levels simultaneously without any interference between teams. The transitions between rooms are seamless and the stair nosing profiles match perfectly. David was on-site for the staircase sections personally — you could see the attention the leadership gives to the details that matter most."
Terrence & Joy M. Homeowners · Cambridge, ON Flooring
★★★★★
September 2024
"We did a complete kitchen renovation — full demo, new layout, custom shaker cabinets to the ceiling, waterfall quartz island, integrated appliances, and new tile backsplash. The 3D design walkthrough before construction started was invaluable — we caught two layout changes during design that would have been expensive to fix mid-build. The finished kitchen looks like it belongs in an architectural magazine. Every penny was worth it."
Sophie L. Homeowner · Guelph, ON Kitchen Renovation
★★★★★
August 2024
"Our rental property needed three bathrooms updated before going back on the market. D&D worked around our tenants' vacate schedule and completed all three in sequence over two weeks. Consistent quality across all three — same tile standards, same fixtures, same finish quality. The new photos for the listing generated double the inquiry volume of the previous listing. ROI was immediate."
Mark H. Property Investor · Waterloo, ON Bathroom Renovations
★★★★★
July 2024
"We had custom built-in shelving and a TV wall unit installed in our living room. David designed a system that perfectly matched our ceiling height, used the corner effectively, and integrated cable management so everything is hidden. The finish — painted MDF with a full-height panel profile — looks completely custom built and not like a flat-pack unit. Multiple people have asked if it was original to the house."
Anita & Greg P. Homeowners · Kitchener, ON Custom Built-Ins
★★★★★
June 2024
"D&D refinished our existing hardwood floors — sanding, staining to a custom grey-brown tone, and three coats of waterborne finish. The colour match across the entire floor is perfect, even in the sections that had previous repairs from prior owners. They used dustless sanding equipment and the house was completely livable the same day. The floors look better than the day they were installed 25 years ago."
Noel & Christine A. Homeowners · Cambridge, ON Floor Refinishing
★★★★★
May 2024
"We used D&D for a main floor powder room remodel — small space but the details matter. New tile floor in a herringbone pattern, floating vanity, wall-mounted faucet, and a new light fixture rough-in. The tile work in the corner cuts around the toilet rough-in is flawless. Devon checked in on installation day personally to review the tile layout before grouting. That level of quality control is exactly why we'll use D&D for our upcoming kitchen project."
Isabel F. Homeowner · Waterloo, ON Powder Room
★★★★★
April 2024
"Our kitchen and dining room needed a lighting overhaul — we had 20-year-old fluorescent fixtures and dated pot lights. D&D replaced everything with recessed LED pot lights in a new layout, a statement pendant over the dining table, and under-cabinet LED strips in the kitchen. The transformation without any other renovation work was dramatic. Our home looks completely different and our energy bill went down. The electrician work was clean and all inspections passed first time."
Patrick & Diane O. Homeowners · Cambridge, ON Lighting Upgrades
★★★★★
March 2024
"We hired D&D for countertop and backsplash replacement only — we wanted to refresh our kitchen without a full renovation. They replaced our laminate counters with leathered quartzite and installed a handmade subway tile backsplash in a vertical stack pattern. The templating was done precisely so the quartzite slab matched our island overhang exactly. Even a partial kitchen refresh made an enormous visual impact. Professional, priced fairly, and completed in two days."
Carolyn M. Homeowner · Kitchener, ON Countertops & Backsplash
★★★★★
February 2024
"I renovated my condo in Waterloo — full open-concept kitchen and living area refresh including LVP flooring, kitchen island, new drywall in the entryway, and a custom closet organizer system. D&D coordinated every trade through one project manager so I never had to track who was doing what. The work was completed while I was still living in the unit and the site management was excellent. Zero messes left overnight. The final result increased the appraised value of my condo by more than the renovation cost."
Adrian K. Condo Owner · Waterloo, ON Full Interior Refresh
★★★★★
January 2024
"We needed a full laundry room conversion — washer/dryer moved from basement to main floor, including new tile floor, storage cabinets, and a utility sink rough-in. D&D handled all trades including the plumbing and electrical coordination, which other contractors said was out of scope. Everything was completed in three days with no surprises and a finished space that actually works for our family. Clean, efficient, and the work holds up beautifully."
Fiona & Marcus G. Homeowners · Kitchener, ON Laundry Room
★★★★★
December 2023
"I had D&D install crown moulding and a coffered ceiling in our master bedroom. The coffered ceiling required precision framing and the result is stunning — clean edges, tight corners, and a completely level grid. Devon checked the layout personally before any trim was applied. Our master bedroom feels like a boutique hotel room. The craftsmanship reflects a level of care you simply do not find with general contractors."
Howard N. Homeowner · Cambridge, ON Crown Moulding & Trim

Have Questions?

Common Questions — Answered by Our Interior Team

Everything you need to know before getting started — straight answers from our team.

Do you offer 3D design consultations for kitchen and bathroom renovations? +

Yes — every kitchen and bathroom renovation begins with a 3D design session so you can visualize the finished space before any materials are ordered. We use design software to model cabinet layouts, tile patterns, fixture placement, and lighting. You approve the design before work begins.

How long does a kitchen renovation typically take? +

A full kitchen renovation — cabinets, countertops, tile backsplash, appliance hook-ups, and lighting — typically takes 10–18 business days depending on scope. We provide a detailed project schedule before work starts and update you daily on progress.

Do you use subcontractors or an in-house crew? +

D&D Interior Services keeps all key trades in-house — flooring, tile, carpentry, and electrical (minor work). For structural plumbing and heavy electrical, we work with licensed trades partners we've vetted over years of working together. You'll always know who is in your home.

Can you match existing flooring or trim profiles? +

Matching existing flooring and trim is a speciality of ours. We assess the existing profiles, species, and stain before sourcing materials. When an exact match is impossible, we recommend transition solutions that look intentional rather than patched.

What is the process for a basement finishing project? +

Basement finishing begins with a layout consultation and framing plan. We handle insulation, framing, drywall, LVP or tile flooring, pot light installation, trim, and final paint. Most basement projects run 3–5 weeks from demolition to final walkthrough.

Do you handle painting as part of renovation projects? +

Yes — interior painting is included in full renovation scopes and also available as a standalone service. We use premium paints and take care with protection of surfaces, trim, and flooring that aren't being painted.

What countertop materials do you install? +

We install quartz, quartzite, granite, and butcher block countertops. Quartz is our most popular choice for kitchens due to its durability and low maintenance. All countertops are templated precisely on-site before fabrication to ensure a perfect fit.

Is D&D Interior Services licensed and insured? +

Yes — D&D Interior Services carries full liability insurance and WSIB coverage for all crew members. We are happy to provide certificates of insurance before project start. All renovation work meets Ontario Building Code and is permitted where required.

Full Kitchen Renovation
March 2026
Verified Client
"Our kitchen renovation with D&D Interior Services was the best large-purchase experience I've had in 20 years of homeownership. The process started with a 3D design session that took two hours and produced a complete visual model of the finished kitchen — cabinet layout, countertop material, backsplash pattern, island dimensions, and lighting placement — before any material was ordered or any demolition began. We made three design changes during that session and saw the result in the 3D model immediately. The actual renovation ran 16 days. The cabinet installation is precise — every door hangs perfectly level, every drawer glide is smooth, and the upper and lower runs are aligned in a single continuous plane. The quartz countertop seam is nearly invisible. The subway tile backsplash is set in a perfectly consistent offset pattern with grout lines that appear machine-cut. Our kitchen was photographed by two friends who thought we'd done a magazine-level renovation. We had. D&D made it happen."

Master Bathroom Renovation
February 2026
Verified Client
"We wanted our master bathroom to feel like a hotel — a genuine luxury experience in our own home. The brief to D&D Interior Services was specific: freestanding soaking tub, large-format porcelain tile floor and walls, frameless glass shower with rain head and body jets, floating double vanity with under-cabinet lighting. Devon worked through the 3D design with us until every detail was exactly right. The renovation ran five days, which we found remarkably fast for the scope. The large-format tile — 24x48 slabs on the shower walls — is installed with perfectly consistent grout lines and tight alignment across the full 9-foot ceiling height. The frameless glass is level and plumb. The under-cabinet LED lighting creates exactly the hotel-room ambience we wanted. Every fixture operates flawlessly. We've been in this home for eleven years and never experienced a renovation of this quality. D&D Interior Services exceeds the standard of any contractor we've worked with."

Whole-Home Engineered Hardwood Flooring
January 2026
Verified Client
"We replaced carpet and laminate throughout our entire home — approximately 2,200 square feet across the main floor, upper hall, and three bedrooms — with engineered hardwood. I was nervous about living through a floor replacement at that scale, but D&D Interior Services managed the project with remarkably minimal disruption. They worked room by room on a planned sequence, which meant we were never without usable living space. The dust barriers were genuinely effective — our HVAC system, which was running throughout, had no visible dust accumulation. The hardwood is White Oak with a wire-brushed texture and a matte lacquer finish. The installation quality is exceptional — the floating installation has no gaps or squeaks anywhere, the transitions between rooms are precise, and the stair nosing integration at the top of the staircase is a detail that tells you the installer actually cares about the finished product. Several guests have assumed our floors are solid hardwood. They are not — the quality of installation makes the difference."

Basement Finishing — Full Suite
December 2025
Verified Client
"I purchased a rental property in Guelph with an unfinished basement and needed it converted to a legal secondary suite to improve the income potential of the property. D&D Interior Services handled the full project from permit application through final inspection. The project scope included framing and insulation, drywall, LVP flooring, a three-piece bathroom with tile floor and tiled shower, a kitchenette installation, pot light installation throughout, and all trim and paint. The building permit was obtained correctly, and the finished suite passed the city inspection without deficiencies on the first visit. That last point is more significant than it might appear — many contractors do basement suites that fail inspection on the first pass. D&D's familiarity with the building code requirements meant everything was done right from the start. The suite was tenanted within two weeks of final inspection at a rental rate that covered 60% of my full mortgage payment. This project changed the financial profile of the property fundamentally."

Main Floor Renovation — Kitchen, Flooring, Trim
November 2025
Verified Client
"We renovated our entire main floor as a single coordinated project — kitchen cabinet replacement and countertop upgrade, LVP flooring replacing dated ceramic tile throughout the main level, and new crown moulding and door casing trim throughout. Doing all three trades as a single coordinated project sounds complicated, but D&D Interior Services managed the sequencing perfectly. Flooring went in after the kitchen rough-in work was complete; trim was installed last after flooring was done and rooms were confirmed clean and dust-free. The entire project ran 18 days. The kitchen has Shaker-profile painted MDF cabinets with quartz countertops and a herringbone marble tile backsplash. The LVP flooring is a wide-plank engineered oak look with seamless transitions throughout. The crown moulding profile is a classic ogee that suits the 1990s home perfectly. Every element works together as a cohesive design, and that's because D&D treated it as one project rather than three separate jobs."

Lighting Renovation — Full Main Floor
October 2025
Verified Client
"Our 1995 home had builder-grade light fixtures that hadn't been updated in 30 years — four-bulb ceiling mounts in every room, fluorescent tube lighting in the kitchen, and pot lights in the living room that were the original 4-inch incandescent housings with no trims. D&D Interior Services transformed our main floor lighting in three days: 32 new 4-inch LED pot lights in a proper layout across living, dining, and hall areas; a five-pendant linear fixture over the kitchen island; surface-mounted fixtures replaced with flush LED panels in all secondary areas; and dimmer switches installed throughout with proper compatibility for the new LED loads. The transformation from the old lighting to the new is one of those changes you cannot believe you lived without. The rooms feel larger, the ambience at different light levels is adjustable for every occasion, and the LED efficiency means our hydro bill is measurably lower. D&D's electrical knowledge — understanding dimmer compatibility, circuit load, and proper fixture spacing — made this project possible."

Guest Bathroom & Powder Room Renovations
September 2025
Verified Client
"We renovated two bathrooms simultaneously — our guest bathroom and the main floor powder room. Both spaces were original to the house (1988) and needed full gut renovations. D&D Interior Services handled both as a single project, which allowed them to coordinate material deliveries and work the two rooms in parallel when the project schedule allowed. The guest bathroom received new large-format floor tile, tiled shower with niche, floating vanity, and frameless glass shower door. The powder room received a designer-pattern floor tile, a vessel sink on a custom vanity, and a wall-mounted faucet. Both rooms were done in seven days. The tile work is the standout feature — every grout line is consistent, every pattern is centred correctly, and the transitions between tile and other surfaces (the shower curb, the vanity base, the threshold) are finished precisely. Both bathrooms look like show-home quality. We've had family visit who refused to believe the renovation was done by a local contractor — they assumed it was a designer showroom installation."

Quartz Countertops & Tile Backsplash
August 2025
Verified Client
"We had our kitchen countertops replaced with quartz and added a full-height tile backsplash from counter to upper cabinet. We had received one previous quote that proposed keeping the existing cabinet toe-kick as a reference for the countertop template — which is incorrect and would have resulted in an unlevel surface. D&D Interior Services templated the countertops directly from the cabinet tops after levelling them, which is the correct approach. The quartz — a Calacatta-look porcelain pattern — has a seam at the corner transition that is genuinely difficult to find; you have to know where it is to see it. The full-height subway tile backsplash was installed in a running bond pattern with matching grout to the white quartz background. The precision of the tile spacing around the outlet boxes and along the upper cabinet bottoms reflects a genuine tradesperson, not just someone who can lay tile. The finished kitchen is a showpiece. We are completely satisfied with D&D Interior Services and would not hesitate to use them again."

We had a finished basement with water-damaged drywall after a small flood. D&D did the demo, mould-proofed the framing, and finished it better than before. The taping and mudding is so smooth you can't find a seam.

Frequently Asked Questions

What homeowners want to know before hiring D&D Interior Services

How long does a kitchen renovation typically take?

A standard kitchen renovation with cabinet replacement, new countertops, and updated fixtures takes 10–16 days on average. Projects involving wall removal, electrical upgrades, or custom cabinetry may extend the timeline to 3–4 weeks. We provide a detailed project schedule before work begins so you know exactly what to expect.

What flooring options do you recommend for high-traffic areas?

For high-traffic residential areas, we typically recommend luxury vinyl plank (LVP) or engineered hardwood. LVP is waterproof, scratch-resistant, and ideal for kitchens, mudrooms, and basements. Engineered hardwood offers a premium look with better moisture stability than solid wood. We carry samples from multiple suppliers and can help match your aesthetic and budget.

Do you handle permit applications for bathroom or kitchen renovations?

Most cosmetic interior renovations — flooring, painting, drywall patching, cabinet replacement — do not require a permit. Projects involving plumbing relocation, electrical panel changes, or structural modifications typically do require permits. When applicable, D&D handles the permit application and coordinates all required inspections as part of the project.

Can you work around an occupied home?

Yes. The majority of our residential projects are completed in occupied homes. We use dust barriers, floor protection, and timed scheduling to minimize disruption. For kitchen renovations, we work to restore temporary kitchen functionality at the end of each day where possible. Our crews are respectful of your home and living space throughout.

What is involved in a drywall skim coat vs. full replacement?

A skim coat applies a thin layer of joint compound over existing drywall to create a smooth, level finish — ideal for covering textured ceilings or minor imperfections. Full drywall replacement is used when the existing board is water-damaged, mould-affected, or structurally compromised. We assess each situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution.

How do I choose the right paint finish for different rooms?

Flat or matte finishes work well in low-traffic areas like bedrooms where you want to minimize surface imperfections. Eggshell and satin are more durable and washable — ideal for hallways, kitchens, and kids' rooms. Semi-gloss is recommended for trim, doors, and bathroom walls due to its moisture resistance. We help clients choose the right sheen for every space.

Do you offer design consultation for kitchen and bathroom renovations?

Yes. Our project managers provide design guidance on layout, material selection, fixture choices, and colour coordination. For larger projects, we work with your selections or can connect you with a design professional. Our goal is to make sure the finished space reflects your vision and works within your budget.

What warranty do you offer on interior renovation work?

D&D Interior Services provides a 1-year workmanship warranty on all interior renovation projects. Flooring and tile products carry separate manufacturer warranties. We document all product specifications and warranties at project handover so you have everything in one place for future reference.

More From Our Customers

Real reviews from homeowners across Kitchener-Waterloo Region

★★★★★

"D&D refinished our 80-year-old white oak floors and they look better than new. The crew dustlessly sanded three rooms, applied a custom stain we'd been hunting for months, and the result is breathtaking. Our contractor friends couldn't believe how tight the seams are."

Margaret & Tom Vickers Waterloo, ON Hardwood Flooring
★★★★★

"A burst pipe left a gaping hole in our dining room ceiling and two walls. D&D's drywall team had the damage patched, taped, mudded, and painted within two days. You genuinely cannot find the repair — the texture match is perfect. Saved us from a much larger insurance headache."

Paul Nakashima Elmira, ON Drywall Repair
★★★★★

"We repainted our entire home before listing — 11 rooms including ceilings, trim, and doors. D&D's crew worked neatly and efficiently over three days. The colour they recommended photographed beautifully and our realtor credited the paint as a major factor in the quick sale."

Joanne Ferreira Cambridge, ON Interior Painting
★★★★★

"Complete kitchen gut — removed load-bearing wall with a beam, new cabinets, waterfall quartz island, and hidden-panel appliances. D&D managed every trade including the structural engineer sign-off. The timeline was exactly what they promised and the space looks incredible."

Stefan & Renata Kowalczyk Kitchener, ON Kitchen Renovation
★★★★★

"Our ensuite was dated 1990s oak and a single sad vanity. D&D transformed it into a spa-style retreat — heated tile floors, double vanity with vessel sinks, and a rainfall shower. The project ran five days, start to finish. Every trade showed up when scheduled. Remarkable coordination."

Christine Lapointe Guelph, ON Bathroom Renovation
★★★★★

"D&D installed 1,400 sq ft of engineered hardwood across our open-concept main floor. The transition between the living room and kitchen is seamless and the diagonal layout in the foyer is a showpiece. Friends visiting for the first time always comment on the floors first."

Alicia & Grant Thornton Ayr, ON Hardwood Flooring
★★★★★

"Hired D&D to repair extensive water-stained drywall in our finished basement after heavy spring rains. They identified the moisture source before touching a panel, fixed the grading issue, then rebuilt everything properly. No smell, no mould, perfectly smooth walls. Trustworthy professionals."

Derek Okafor Waterloo, ON Drywall Repair
★★★★★

"D&D painted our century home — the trim alone was a massive undertaking with all the original millwork. They hand-brushed every profile and the crisp lines against the wall colour make the whole house feel like a restoration. This level of patience and skill is rare to find."

Frances & William Drummond Elmira, ON Interior Painting
★★★★★

"We redesigned our galley kitchen into a working L-shape by moving one wall. D&D handled the structural assessment, permit, demo, custom cabinetry, and quartz counters all in-house. The project was scoped honestly — no hidden costs, no surprises. The new kitchen is everything we hoped for."

Nadia Rousseau Cambridge, ON Kitchen Renovation
★★★★★

"Our powder room was tiny and awkward. D&D reconfigured the layout, added a pocket door, installed a floating vanity, and tiled floor to ceiling in large-format stone. The space feels three times bigger. They squeezed so much design into a 35 sq ft room it still amazes me."

Victor Mensah Kitchener, ON Bathroom Renovation
★★★★★

"LVP throughout the basement and staircase landing — D&D matched the undertone to our main floor hardwood so the transition looks intentional rather than a split level. The underlayment choice has made the basement noticeably quieter and warmer under foot. Outstanding product knowledge."

Beverley Chung Guelph, ON Hardwood Flooring
★★★★★

"We had accent colours in every room from previous owners that needed a complete reset to warm white and sage. D&D's team colour-matched our furniture and existing tile perfectly. The result is cohesive throughout the whole house — something we couldn't achieve in three attempts ourselves."

Oluwaseun & Abigail Adeyemi Ayr, ON Interior Painting

What Our Clients Remember Most

Featured highlights from renovation clients across Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, and Guelph.

D&D managed our entire main-floor renovation — flooring, kitchen, paint — as a single coordinated project with one site lead who communicated daily. That level of organisation is rare. We never felt lost or uncertain, and the finished result is everything we hoped for.

Bernard & Celeste Ng
Homeowners — Kitchener, ON

I've renovated homes before and the kitchen D&D built for us is by far the finest work I've seen at this price point. The cabinet installation is plumb to the millimetre, the countertop seams are invisible, and the crew treated our home with genuine respect throughout every day of the project.

Delilah Morrison
Homeowner — Waterloo, ON

We have three young children and were worried about the disruption of a full bathroom renovation. D&D set up containment, cleaned up at end of every day, and finished the project in six working days. The bathroom is stunning and our family barely noticed the disruption. Truly impressive.

Frequently Asked by New Clients

Straightforward answers to the most common questions from homeowners planning interior renovations in Kitchener-Waterloo.

How long will my renovation take and can I stay in my home?

Most of our clients remain in their homes throughout their renovation. Timelines vary by project: a bathroom renovation typically runs five to eight working days; a kitchen renovation is usually two to three weeks depending on custom cabinetry lead times; flooring for a full main floor is often two to three days. We provide a detailed production schedule at booking confirmation and our site lead updates you daily. We set up containment to minimise dust migration, clean up at end of every shift, and maintain access to all essential areas of your home throughout the project.

What does the design consultation process involve?

Every D&D interior renovation begins with a no-obligation design consultation at your home. Our project lead will walk through the space with you, discuss your vision, preferred materials, functional requirements, and budget range. For kitchens and bathrooms we can provide rendered layout concepts to help you visualise the finished space before committing. We then provide a detailed written quote with itemised materials, finishes, and labour so you can make an informed decision. There is no pressure and no obligation at the consultation stage.

Do you source materials or does the client need to supply them?

D&D supplies all materials by default as part of our full-service approach. We work with trade accounts at premium suppliers and pass favourable pricing on to our clients. If you have already purchased specific products — flooring, tile, fixtures, or cabinetry — we are happy to install client-supplied materials at an adjusted labour rate. We do require material specifications in advance to plan appropriately and will always advise if a product choice may affect quality or warranty coverage.

Are your tradespeople licensed and insured?

All D&D Interior Services tradespeople carry the appropriate certifications for their trade, hold active WSIB coverage, and work under D&D's commercial general liability insurance policy. We do not use day-labour or unlicensed subcontractors. Every person working in your home is a vetted member of our network with a documented performance history. On request, we can provide certificates of insurance and WSIB clearance certificates prior to project commencement.

What warranty do you provide on interior renovation work?

D&D Interior Services provides a minimum one-year workmanship warranty on all interior renovation projects, and a two-year warranty on flooring installations, tile work, and drywall finishing. Beyond our workmanship warranty, most materials we install carry their own manufacturer's product warranties — typically ranging from 10 to 25 years depending on the product category. We document all warranties and provide the full warranty package to you in writing at project closeout, including manufacturer registration where applicable.

Can D&D handle a full home renovation rather than just one room?

Yes — multi-room and whole-home renovations are a significant part of our work. We regularly manage comprehensive projects that include flooring throughout multiple levels, kitchen and bathroom renovations, full interior painting, and drywall upgrades all coordinated as a single project with one site lead and one schedule. Managing multiple trades in sequence is a core strength of our team, and many of our clients tell us the single-project approach was the primary reason they chose D&D over managing multiple independent contractors themselves.

★★★★★
Flooring

D&D installed hardwood throughout our main floor and staircase. The installer was meticulous with the transitions and the stair nosing, and every board is tight and level. Exactly what we wanted — a clean, modern look with zero squeaks.

Drywall & Plaster

We had significant water damage behind a wall and D&D removed, remediated, and re-drywalled the entire section in two days. The texture and paint match the rest of the room so well you can't tell anything was ever there. Excellent craftwork.

Interior Painting

D&D painted our entire home — walls, ceilings, trim, and doors — in four days. The prep work was immaculate and the cut lines around trim are razor sharp. Our home feels brand new and the colour choices they helped us with are perfect.

Kitchen Renovations

Our kitchen is completely transformed. D&D handled the cabinets, countertops, tile backsplash, and new flooring as a single project. The coordination was smooth, the timeline was met, and the result exceeded what we envisioned on the mood board.

Bathroom Renovations

D&D turned our outdated main bathroom into a spa-style retreat. New walk-in shower, large format tile, floating vanity, and heated floors. The tile work is absolutely flawless. We use it every day and still can't believe it's ours.

Flooring

We went with luxury vinyl plank throughout our basement and all three bedrooms. D&D helped us pick the right product for the moisture levels in the basement and the result is beautiful. Warm, durable, and the kids have already tested it thoroughly.

Drywall & Plaster

We finished our unfinished basement with D&D handling all the drywall, taping, and texture. The finish quality is far above what I expected at the price. They also framed around a post in a way that looks intentional and adds character to the space.

Interior Painting

I had D&D paint our open concept main floor with an accent wall and a two-tone stairwell. They gave great colour advice and the execution was flawless. No lap marks, no mess, and they moved and replaced all the furniture. Exceptional service.

Kitchen Renovations

From demo to final walkthrough our kitchen reno took sixteen days and came in exactly on budget. D&D handled every trade — plumbing, cabinetry, tile, countertops — and I only had one point of contact throughout. Stress-free from start to finish.

Bathroom Renovations

We had both our upstairs bathrooms done at the same time and D&D ran the two spaces simultaneously with separate crews. Finished in eight days, both rooms are gorgeous, and we only had minimal disruption to our household during the week. Outstanding logistics.
