Custom Home Builders in Ottawa, ON

Past the downtown core, Ottawa's custom home trade reaches into Kanata, Nepean, Greely and Carp, and the 69 custom home builders on this page work across that whole span. The city is a single municipality, the City of Ottawa. Timber frame, modular and cottage builders turn up here alongside infill specialists, because the outskirts offer large lots and rural land that the central neighbourhoods do not.

Ottawa General Contractors, operating as OGC, is rated 4.4 from 238 reviews. It handles kitchen, bathroom and basement renovations, additions and custom homes, with an in-house architectural team preparing 3D concept designs and plans. It also builds tiny and mini homes, which suit a large lot as a separate dwelling. Capital Homes, 4.9 from 113 reviews, has been active since 2010 and builds custom homes with infill and estate projects. OakWood Designers & Builders, 4.5 from 101 reviews, is a fourth-generation family firm established in 1956 that builds energy-efficient multigenerational homes.

Infill is a real strand of the local trade. Capital Homes, OakWood Designers & Builders, Omega Homes, RND Construction Ltd, Advantage Design Build and Innovative Design Contracting IDC all take on teardown and infill. Omega Homes builds new houses on established lots after demolishing the existing structure. RND Construction is a green custom home builder licensed to build to LEED, R-2000, NetZero and EnergyStar standards, with an infill home in Alta Vista in a mature neighbourhood.

Energy performance and natural materials are a local theme. Cutting Edge Construction designs and builds eco-friendly custom homes, and its principals worked on the NRC's Net Zero home. Northwood Homes and Cottages and Casa Verde Construction both build timber frame homes, and Northwood also builds cottages and modular homes. Terry Construction offers custom modular and prefab homes with luxury custom builds, and Orange Design Build takes on a cottage as well as multi-unit housing.

9 more custom home builders in Ottawa

Listings with the fewest reviews.

Several builders sell homes in their own communities. Phoenix Homes, rated 3.3 from 112 reviews, has built custom homes and communities since 1988, with Diamondview Estates in Carp, Willow Court in Barrhaven East and Pathways in Findlay Creek among them. Roca Homes holds 3.6 from 9 reviews and Bulat Homes Ltd. 2.8 from 11. A buyer in one of these communities is dealing with a production builder, which is a different arrangement from commissioning a custom house on land the owner holds.

For an owner who already holds the land, Tarion advises registering the construction contract with Tarion when it is signed, so the warranty can be explained while the home is built. Ottawa General Contractors, Casa Verde Construction, Gemstone Corporation and My Home Builders all build on a client's lot. Beckwith Residential Construction Ltd. and Legault Builders Inc, based in Orléans, work toward the edges of the city.

Nepean, Kanata, Stittsville, Carp and Embrun have their own pages, and several Ottawa builders name Kanata, Nepean, Greely, Carp and Beckwith as places they work. Someone building on rural land outside the urban core should look at those pages as well.
