Home Office Reno

Ottawa general contractors added a new story onto our home, and made several recommendations that made our new home offices far better. The placement and type of windows being used in the offices in was one part where they improved on our original vision. My husband was also pleased with the storage space they built in his.

Kitchen Renovation

The first thing my husband and I did was to look up reviews for contractors . Ottawa General Contractors had wonderful reviews and they certainly lived up to them. The most important requirement was that the work had to be within our budget. Ottawa General Contractors worked hard to fulfil that requirement.Another important factor with Ottawa General Contractors was the people. They are just amazing! Every single person along with the tradespeople were first class. There was not one unpleasant incident. They showed up when scheduled, did the work efficiently and left a clean workspace.The project manager showed up every day to check the site. Ottawa General Contractors had set their budget to meet our budget but since we managed to find less expensive alternatives e.g.laminate as opposed to Quartz, we got a refund! Thanks to the wonderful, patient people at Ottawa General Contractors, Nick, Dan, James, Maria and Farrah. We couldn't have done it without you!

Kitchen Renovation

Gutted the kitchen, redid the floors on the entire main level and opened up some doorways.

Working with OGC was great. From the initial consult with Nick, seeing the 3d renderings with James and then finally kicking off the demolition with Brad. Everyone was always where they needed to be at the right time and were ready to answer any questions about the project at any time of the day. All the workers in and out of the house were very curious, professional and did a stellar job.

I would hire OGC to work on any other part of the house and will be recommending them to friends and family.

Basement

After getting a quote, we came up with a plan that suited us. They came and did the work on our basement in a timely fashion. They were always very polite accommodating and knowledgeable.

Home Renovation

I had actually changed my renovation start date to an earlier one due to my travel plans and Ottawa General Contractors was very accommodating and assured me that it would be done on time. They worked around the clock to ensure that the permit would be submitted and approved by the hopeful start date. There were not many delays however one criticism was due to the fact that one tradesmen worked quite late without notifying me. It is nice to see that the trades OGC hires takes pride in their work and meets their deadlines. Any issues that arose were dealt with via e-mail most of the time and they were answered promptly with as much info as I needed.

OGC’s people seemed reasonable and didn't make me feel like my budget was not enough, they were very enthusiastic and we liked how many people were involved in the process. OGC was true to their word and stand behind their product and service.

Kitchen Renovation

We enjoyed working with OGC, their staff are attentive and friendly and they provide service from A to Z. We did encounter some issues that seemed avoidable, e.g. island not properly measured, crooked hardwood transitions, countertops not properly measured. However they did their best to rectify the issues and keep us happy. We especially recommend Bassem from Cutwell Kitchens, his work was outstanding.

But overall we are really happy with the design they came up with and our kitchen looks great. Would be happy to recommend to others.
