Backyard Renovation

We used Northern Origins Construction to help us complete some backyard renovations. James was very professional, knowledgeable, honest and willing to work hard. He took the time before the project to review our landscape design with us and discuss a timeline. We really appreciated James constant communication throughout the project. We have found this a rarity with other companies we have used. Often projects have unexpected problems that arise and James was great at brainstorming multiple options and price points to help us attain our goals. He stuck to his timeline and we are very happy with the outcome. We would definitely recommend Northern Origins and plan to use them again.

Llandscaping and carpentry

James has worked on an elaborate Japanese garden design. His work has been meticulous in the creation of a koi pond with decking, a raised garden bed and arbor. I would highly recommend Northern Origins.

Definitely recommend!

James was great to work with from beginning to end. Friendly, reliable and very knowledgable. He installed closets for us in some very challenging spaces (uneven walls/floors) and was able to make them look amazing. Would highly recommend James for any kind of contract work through the house, very pleased with his service!

Hi Lindsay,

Thank you so much for your kind review. Often times working in difficult spaces or with previous work that is uneven, out of square or off level can hinder a contractors ability to complete the job normally. At Northern Origins Construction we take the time to assess these situations and ensure the job can still get done while keeping the client happy. I am glad we were able to help you out with the bedroom renovation and thank you again for the generous review.

Kitchen Renovation

We hired northern origins construction for a complete remodel of the basement kitchen, cabinetry, appliances, sink, etc.

James was awesome with his professionalism. Always on time in the morning. He even worked with our schedules of eating lunch and stuff around his work. Very friendly of course. My parents still ask about him if he's doing alright. He even went to the store with us and helped us narrow down which kitchen to buy and didn't even charge for his time. Really appreciated that as we were sooooo lost where to even start.

His work was very detailed. You can really tell he's passionate about woodworking especially. He worked on our kitchen as if it's his own house Reno. He won't cut corners even if you ask him to do something for cheaper, he would advise us, " yeah the material might be cheaper, but it'll bite you in behind .. later in years" .. so we really appreciated that.

Price was very reasonable too. He gave us the option of hourly rate or a lump sum amount, whatever is more convenient/ cheaper.

We have recommended him to our other friends to take on his services.

Hi Ashish,

Thank you very much for your review. I'm really happy that I was able to get that kitchen installed and working for you guys :) . What you said is very true, at Northern Origins Construction we do always aim to please our clients, but it is important that they are aware of the construction process. The reason why we treat every job as if it was our own is because someone does in fact live there....So if it isn't good enough for our home, then it wouldn't be good enough for theirs either....absolutely no corners get cut!

Please tell your folks that I am doing well and that I say hello. Thank you again for the very kind review Ashish!

Family room and basement renovations

Northern Origins Construction did a superb job. The estimate's for the different jobs were very accurate and affordable. The time frame from start to completion was also realistic. The owner attended every day and cleaned up his workspace regularly so we could live comfortably through the 2 renovations. The owner was very reliable and responsible. I plan to hire Northern Origins Construction in the future for further bathroom and laundry room renovations. Rock fireplace, wood accent walls, create spare room in basement.

Basement Reno for Washer

James installed plumbing for my basement washing machine, moving it from the basement washroom to the outside of the basement. He installed the hot/cold water pipes as well as pipes for the grey water. Took less than a day. He was there on time, professional and cleaned up after.

-Kept me posted throughout the process
-Would highly recommend

Hi Jason,

I'm really glad that Northern Origins Construction was able to help you with your basement project. I agree, having the washer and dryer strategically placed is always really important.
