Brampton Golf Course
March, 2019
When you’re on the board of directors and have 450 members to answer to, overseeing a major renovation paid for with members’ dollars can be a challenge. Giving a contractor a “dropdead deadline” on a project just ups the stress.
But Brampton Golf Club board member Joanne Tawse says she was pleasantly surprised with the process because they hired the right person for the job.
Joanne, a member since 1999, was on the revitalization committee that oversaw this, the club’s first major renovation. The club was established in 1921 as a nine-hole course but in 1963 evolved into an 18-hole championship course.
When they were interviewing contractors, Joanne thought of Amedeo, who had renovated a friend’s house, and that of a friend of a friend. “I knew he did good work and was reasonably priced,” she says.
At that time, she didn’t know Barbini Design Build has many divisions, including commercial and hospitality. “Once we inquired, Amedeo sent a portfolio. He was very keen on the job. It wasn’t a huge dollar figure. We worked with a shoestring budget. But he said he could do what we wanted and we’d get a great product for the budget,” she says. “And everybody liked him.”
