Main floor renovation

We hired Ottawa General Contractors to do a complete renovation of our main floor. Almost all of the inside walls were removed to create an open concept. The process went smoothly from start to finish. If any issues did arise, they were handled quickly and completely. Our project manager (Adam Radmore) was on top of everything and was very helpful in answering any questions we had along the way. Would highly recommend OGC to anyone looking to renovate their home.

Basement Project

I recently had my basement renovation done by The Ottawa General Contractors; and I am very satisfied with the outcome of the project. My appreciation goes to all the teams that are involved for their immensely contributions to the completion and the success of the project.

My special thanks goes to the project Manager, Adam who excellently managed all the challenges that arose during the construction process.

OGC also provided a more convinient all-in-one-service in getting some repair works done in the main house during the period; instead of having me to go through the hassles hiring different handyman for the repair jobs. I really had a great experience with OGC and would definitely recommend this company.

Basement Renovation

We engaged with OGC for our basement renovation in 2024. The process was smooth from beginning to end. We were very happy with the end results, and the high quality finish. Our project and construction manager (Jim and Abdull) were excellent. Very professional, kept us on schedule and on budget, and provided timely updates. As with many construction projects, there were a few small hiccups, but these were dealt with immediately by the team at OGC. Overall we were very happy with the project.

Kitchen addition and bathroom renovation

We bought a smaller older home last year with a tiny bathroom and an inadequate kitchen. OGC helped us create an expanded and much more liveable space by taking on two projects - expansion of the bathroom and an addition on the back for a new kitchen.

We were not exactly sure how to design and build a more functional home. We just knew what did not work. We met with our designer Nick weekly until we arrived at a bathroom design that seemed optimal and affordable. It actually ended up being really fun and we learned a lot about what is possible in terms of improving living space.

Renovating felt a little daunting at first, especially because we had to live in our space during renovations. But it was really useful to be on-site to engage with the tradespeople as well as the project manager Adam. As the bathroom was being constructed, we were able to discuss what was realistic for the kitchen. Adam was very thoughtful in suggesting alternatives to meet our requirements and providing feedback on the practicality of different possibilities, as we continued to meet with Nick to refine our design plan. We also really appreciated working with Chelsea, who provided appropriate design choices to simplify our selection process. Our kitchen project started about a month after the bathroom was done and proceeded along the timeline that Adam laid out, without delay.

What really worked for us in this process is the relationships. As OGC noted, renovating your home is very personal and it meant a lot to us to have that recognized, especially at the points in the project where demolition and construction become more uncomfortable to live and work around.

We are really pleased with the project results and would be happy to work with OGC again.

Always willing to help

I had an issue with the condo company saying that a fault in the building was caused by the contractors. I quick e-mail to Murad and he was able to create correspondance to the condo management company that there claim was without merit. He was able to provide photos showing that the work done and the timeline did not match what the condo corporation was saying.

OGC - Tiny Home specialists

I hired OGC to construct a tiny home for my disabled father and am happy with the final product. I chose them due to their extensive experience specializing in building tiny homes, and they did not disappoint.
The folks at OGC were a pleasure to work with. Reem assisted with ensuring the design took his disabilities into consideration and suggested material selections that would be beautiful to the eye and resilient to use over time. Special thanks to Abdull the Project Manager for his personal interest in seeing the project through from conception to completion, Murad for addressing any issues promptly and working with our schedule and Oliver for his expertise on the final touches of the project - it turned out great!
