Ottawa General Contractors

We renovated our main floor in 2021-2022 to move and upgrade our kitchen and finishes. OGC provided an all-in-one service to design and plan the main floor improvements we wanted to make, and manage the project, including service providers and suppliers. The OGC workers were qualified, skilled, and the company's service providers were kind. I'm most grateful for the fact that they honoured the warranty when we had issues with our new flooring in 2023-2024, after the renovation. OGC quickly sent people to check out the problem and scheduled us in to fix the issue at no additional cost for expenses we'd already paid as part of our renovation (I chose a different flooring product, and only paid for the price difference). I would work with OGC again and recommend them. think the approved design based on new information (eg. placement of supporting structures and ducts): there was a wall I really wanted to tear down which we initially thought was load-bearing, and demolition revealed it wasn't. However, it contained multiple air ducts and cold-air returns. It was nearly impossible for me to make a decision about what to do on site, with HVAC and project manager on site waiting for me to tell them what to do. I would have needed an expert designer to investigate possible solutions to reroute ductsif anyso I could have obtained the open space I wanted. We ended up keeping the wall I wanted to get rid of so desperately, and today I still wonder if there might have been a solution. Most of their suppliers were great, except for the painting company they initially brought in who did a terrible job, but OGC made it right by sending in their own painter to redo the work at no additional cost of course, and he was great! I also encouraged OGC to reorder their project in a sequence so that painting happens before fixtures are installed: that first painter who did a bad job stained a bunch of doorknobs, hinges, tracks, etc.... But overall, I would work with OGC again and recommend them.
