Building across Waterloo Region since 2007.
Three cities, three permit offices and a lot of different houses. We know the streets, the housing stock and the rules in each.

If the home is just outside Kitchener, Waterloo or Cambridge, tell us where it is and we will let you know whether it is in our range.
Ask about your areaWe work across Kitchener, Waterloo and Cambridge from our Waterloo shop at 6 Colby Court. Staying close is deliberate: it keeps our crews on your site instead of on the highway and keeps the same people on your project from the first day to the last.
Outside these three cities but nearby? Ask. We take on projects elsewhere in the region when the fit is right.
Our shop is at 6 Colby Court in Waterloo, which puts most of Kitchener within fifteen minutes and Cambridge within half an hour. Close enough that the crew who starts your project is the crew who finishes it.
Kitchener is fifteen minutes from our shop, and it is where a large share of our projects have been built since 2007. As your general contractor, we run the whole job: design, permits, our own carpentry crew and long-standing licensed trades, under one project manager. From century homes near Victoria Park to post-war bungalows and newer subdivisions, we know the housing stock and the City of Kitchener permit process well.
Waterloo is home. Our shop is at 6 Colby Court, and many of our longest-standing clients and trade partners are here. We renovate across the city, from century homes in Mary-Allen and Uptown to the family neighbourhoods of Beechwood, Laurelwood, Lakeshore and Eastbridge.
Cambridge has some of the most characterful housing in the region, from stone and brick homes along the Grand River in Galt to the family neighbourhoods of Preston and Hespeler. We have renovated here since 2007, and our Waterloo shop is about half an hour away.
