After receiving three quotes for my 20x20 garage build, I decided to go with Gecko Projects. Derrick was punctual, thorough, and answered all my questions. Once the build started, Derrick and his team were professional, respectful, and worked well together. The garage was built on an existing pad and the project required moving a portion of a fence. The work was completed on time, and the site was left clean. I am very happy with the finished project. It was a great experience, and I would not hesitate to recommend Gecko Projects. Less
Gecko Projects was recommended to me by my cousin who also had a garage built with them last year. I can't say enough good things about Derrick and the entire crew. Derrick was in contact with me throughout the whole process and was very quick to respond to my multiple questions.

Gecko Projects was recommended to me by my cousin who also had a garage built with them last year. I can't say enough good things about Derrick and the entire crew. Derrick was in contact with me throughout the whole process and was very quick to respond to my multiple questions. My initial request was a two car garage but when Derrick came by for the initial inspection I had mentioned I wanted to close off my yard with a fence and gate. Derrick provided me with specs right away and the full details of the project and made the whole process so quick and easy. When it came time to build I couldn't believe the professionalism of him and his entire crew, not to mention how quick they worked on everything - these guys certainly know what they're doing. The fence and gates that were built from scratch were done with such expertise as well, I'm so glad I went with Gecko for this project. Less
We couldn’t be more pleased with our garage construction from start to finish. Derrick is both professional and personable, keeping us informed at every step of the construction process. There were no surprises through the build, even with the supply chain issues the current situation posed.

We couldn’t be more pleased with our garage construction from start to finish. Derrick is both professional and personable, keeping us informed at every step of the construction process. There were no surprises through the build, even with the supply chain issues the current situation posed. He provided a fair estimate, and delivered a quality product, on time and at the quoted price. All in all, we couldn’t have asked for a more stress-free project. He has a great crew, courteous and friendly, always showed up on time, and did excellent work. I can’t recommend them enough. If you want a quality garage built at a fair price, Gecko is your go-to contractor. Less
Our experience with Derrick, his crews and Gecko Projects was second to none. We had an oversized double garage built and it is a thing of beauty! Derrick uses only the best materials and very well-trained staff and we are delighted to report that the journey through this process was professional, transparent and seamless. We will recommend this company time and time again!
From start to finish this was a 5-star experience. Derrick and his crew of workers were very professional, helpful, honest and hard working. Couldn't be happier with my finished garage!
We unfortunately had to tear down our garage due to another company’s shoddy workmanship, built before we purchased our house. It was beyond repair and after having several garage builders assess the situation, and getting three different quotes, we decided to go with Gecko Projects. Gecko was highly rated and came in substantially cheaper than the other quotes, including demolition. Derrick and ... More
We unfortunately had to tear down our garage due to another company’s shoddy workmanship, built before we purchased our house. It was beyond repair and after having several garage builders assess the situation, and getting three different quotes, we decided to go with Gecko Projects. Gecko was highly rated and came in substantially cheaper than the other quotes, including demolition. Derrick and crew made quick work of the project. Demolition was done in a single day. The concrete was poured and finished perfectly, and they even brushed the curb wall. It was amazing to watch the crew put the garage up so quickly. Framing, siding, roofing, electrical and OH door was done in three days. The attention to detail was great, and Derrick kept us informed with each phase of the build. The crew worked like a well oiled machine, and we are very happy with our new garage. I highly recommend Gecko Projects if you have a garage project! Less
Can't recommend these guys enough. The whole crew was amazing and super friendly. Derrick, as mentioned in every review, is a large part of this five star review. I don't think the man puts down his cellphone for an hour a day as he is so responsive. He makes you feel like you are part of every step of the process so you are never left wondering "when are they doing...." The build quality is bet... More
Can't recommend these guys enough. The whole crew was amazing and super friendly. Derrick, as mentioned in every review, is a large part of this five star review. I don't think the man puts down his cellphone for an hour a day as he is so responsive. He makes you feel like you are part of every step of the process so you are never left wondering "when are they doing...." The build quality is better than I expected and they listened to every tweak/demand we requested. Everything was done on time and to/or above my expectations. I never feel compelled to review businesses but they went so far beyond my expectations that I would feel guilty if I didn't. Great job Derrick and team! Less
Absolutely thrilled with the quality, speed and professionalism of Derrick and his crew. He was always willing to answer our questions and was so thorough and knowledgeable. Very prompt with responses and super easy to get ahold of. Definitely recommend Gecko!!
I had a friend assess Gecko's quote so that he could beat the price and use his crew, but he came back to me in a few weeks and told me he just couldn't beat their price, so I went with Gecko and have been very impressed with their communication, timeliness, and friendly staff.
I first saw Gecko Projects when a neighbour built a garage in the summer of 2020. I was very impressed with the ethic and quality of work I saw being done. I contacted Derrick and received a quote but I would have to wait until 2021 to have my project completed. During the fall/winter, I emailed Derrick every now and then with some follow-up questions.

I first saw Gecko Projects when a neighbour built a garage in the summer of 2020. I was very impressed with the ethic and quality of work I saw being done. I contacted Derrick and received a quote but I would have to wait until 2021 to have my project completed. During the fall/winter, I emailed Derrick every now and then with some follow-up questions. His responses were very thorough and all of my questions were answered. Towards the end of winter, Derrick came by and surveyed the site and we started ironing out the details of the build. I was told my garage would probably be built at the end of June or early July with the current waitlist (which is exactly when it was finished). I was advised of the build start date two weeks before construction started. This allowed me to clear anything from the parking pad that needed clearing. When the job started, things moved quickly. I was impressed with all the crew members that worked on my garage. The concrete crew was very detailed and took their time to ensure everything was done properly. The overall garage quality is fantastic. Inspectors, friends, and family members have all noted that the quality of the garage is "above and beyond" what you would expect. I would highly recommend Gecko Projects to anyone looking to have a garage built. * I received my quote in 2020; when wood prices skyrocketed in 2021, Derrick sent an email stating that he would still honour the 2020 quotes. I believe this illustrates that Derrick is also an honourable business person, which should not be taken for granted. Less

His rates were unbeatable and his work is impeccable. It was truly an awesome experience from start to finish - he went above and beyond several times and the entire process was fantastic and seamless. Even my neighbours reached out to tell me how impressed they were with the work they watched Gecko do (and some are now going to be having him build their garages too!) I HIGHLY recommend Gecko & Derrick to anyone looking to build a garage in Calgary! Less
