Pergolas and cabanas in Ottawa.

It depends on the size and type of structure, and many outdoor builds in Ottawa do need a City permit, while smaller or lower structures sometimes do not. We sort this out for you, preparing the permit drawings and working to the bylaw setbacks as part of the build, using the same 3D and AutoCAD drawings we create to design the structure itself. That way you are not left guessing what the City will and will not approve, and if your project does not need a permit, we tell you plainly so you are not paying for paperwork you do not need.

Yes. Every project is designed in 3D and AutoCAD before a single board is cut, so you can see the exact look of your pergola, kitchen, cabana or garage ahead of time, including colour, layout and how it sits against your house. You approve the design and an honest price up front, so there are no surprises once the crew arrives, and if your project needs a City of Ottawa permit, those same drawings are what the application uses. It also makes it easy to try changes on screen, moving a post or resizing a roofline, instead of discovering a problem once it is built on site.

It can. We work in the same material families we use for decks, including composite brands like Trex, Fiberon and TimberTech, PVC, western red cedar and pressure-treated wood, so a new pergola or structure can echo the colour and grain of a deck we did not necessarily build ourselves. During the 3D design stage we match the colour and style to your deck so the finished space looks like it was always meant to be there, rather than an obvious later addition. The same written workmanship warranty and, if you need it, third-party financing through iFinance apply to these projects as well.

We build outdoor kitchens for Ottawa's freeze-thaw cycles, harsh winters and humid summers, choosing weather-rated cabinetry, stone counters and a base that handle the seasons rather than a build meant for a milder climate. We plan the layout and features with you during the 3D design so the finished kitchen suits how you cook and entertain, with the gas, water and power runs roughed in properly at the build stage so nothing has to be opened up later. The exact features, from a built-in grill to a bar fridge, are tailored to your space and budget, and the build carries the same written workmanship warranty as every other project we take on.

Yes. Alongside pergolas, outdoor kitchens, pool cabanas and custom garages, we take on custom projects that don't fit a standard mould, from a one-off backyard structure to a full property redesign. Bring us the idea and we will design it in 3D first so you can see it before we build it, and if the project needs a City of Ottawa permit or approval, we handle the drawings and application as part of the build. We are a family-owned, locally owned, licensed and insured company, and we serve Ottawa, Kanata, Barrhaven, Orleans, Nepean, Stittsville and Gloucester, so custom work across that whole area is genuinely something we take on regularly, not an exception.

Timelines depend on the size and type of structure, whether a permit is needed, and the weather, so we give you a realistic schedule once the 3D design is approved rather than a generic estimate that ignores your specific project. Financing is available through our third-party partner iFinance, and any figure we show in conversation is illustrative only, not an offer of credit. Every build is backed by a written workmanship warranty, with the full terms set out in your signed project agreement, and as a licensed and insured Ottawa company we plan around the same freeze-thaw climate considerations on a pergola or cabana as we do on a deck or fence.
