Cianfrone Architect Inc. is a Hamilton based consulting firm offering architectural design services. The company was established and incorporated by Ontario Charter in 1990.
The firm maintains a talented group of designers and technicians where personal attention is given to each project. This continued commitment to providing quality service has ensured client satisfaction in design, contract documentation, budget, review and post construction services.
The majority of our work is for the commercial, municipal and institutional sectors in the Hamilton and surrounding areas. Although most of our work is directly for the owner, we are also associated with contractors, or other consultants in the formation of design-build teams or joint ventures when appropriate.
In addition to new projects, we have completed numerous renovation projects, some requiring restoration of facades and interiors. Renovation projects require a different expertise. While designing around existing conditions, it becomes important to make the correct decisions as what can be economically saved, up-graded, or extended and what must be removed or supplemented. Much of this expertise comes with experience on past projects.
Throughout all our work we minimize surprises during construction by doing a thorough investigative job during the design stage. Aside from minimizing extras and maintaining our reputation, this is good business sense as it takes more time to deal with changes correctly during the design stage rather than during construction stage.
We provide a high quality service. We develop and expand our client base, based on continuous satisfactory performance on each project. Because of our track-record, we are privileged to have developed a strong base of repeat clients.
