What Ottawa homeowners say
“I consider Carleton Prime the best construction company in Ottawa.”Wesley Ford, bathroom renovation
Indiana and his crew renovated a bathroom for me and the process was seamless, respectful and completed with extreme care and quality. I consider Carleton Prime the best construction company in Ottawa. I will use them for all future projects. Very pleased, would highly recommend.
A very talented kitchen renovation team that executed flawlessly with meticulous attention to detail. Experience matters, and Carleton Prime Construction always bring the renovation sauce. Strongly recommended.
I asked them to re-paint some rooms in my house, and the painter did an excellent job. The mistakes from years ago were erased. He even painted behind the toilets.

Finishing what others started
Need help finishing a project?
Over the years we have been called in to finish or fix projects homeowners had already started with other contractors. Renovations don't fall apart or go wrong because of materials.
Projects fail because of poor planning, shortcuts, unclear communication, and missed expectations. If your project has stalled, we will assess what is there and give you a clear plan to finish it properly.
