I / About us

The person who quotes your job is the one who builds it

SS Carpentry and Renovations is an owner-operated carpentry and renovation business in Ottawa. The owner brings five years in the trade and measures your space, manages the build and fits the work personally, with no sales reps in between. Every job starts with a free estimate and a fixed written quote, and the site is kept tidy every day, because you still live in the house.

III / Why SS

The difference is what you never have to chase

A fixed written price

The figure we quote is the figure you pay. It only moves if you ask it to, in writing.

Direct owner craft

The owner personally oversees and fits every build, ensuring meticulous quality from cut to finish.

One point of contact

You get a direct phone number and fast answers, not a receptionist or switchboard.

A tidy site, daily

Dust sheets down, floors protected, everything swept before we leave. You still live here.

IV / How it works

From first conversation to final polish

01

Free estimate

We come to you, look at the space properly, and listen. Always free, with no conditions and no obligation afterwards.

02

Design & deposit

A minimum $2,000 deposit starts the design and consulting stage, where the details get settled before anyone picks up a tool.

03

The build

Work runs to a schedule agreed with you. The work area is isolated, dust is kept down, and you carry on living in the house.

04

Final walk-through

We walk the finished work together at completion, put right anything you flag, and hand it over.

“We had SS Carpentry and Renovations complete work on our kitchen and tiles, and we’re very happy with the results. The workmanship was excellent, the finishing was clean and professional, and they paid great attention to detail. They were reliable, respectful, and easy to work with throughout the project. Our kitchen looks amazing, and we’re very pleased with how everything turned out. I would definitely recommend SS Carpentry and Renovations to anyone looking for quality renovation work.”

“We had an amazing experience getting our backyard deck and some accent work done in our bedrooms. Akash made custom walnut floating shelves and did a really good job installing everything. Whole work was done ahead of schedule and quality workmanship. Highly recommended.”

IX / Common Questions

The questions we hear most

It depends on the room and the materials, so we will not pretend there is a price list. What we will do is give you one fixed, itemised figure after the visit, and stick to it.

A kitchen or bathroom typically runs 3 to 4 weeks on site. A TV wall is usually 2 to 3 days, or up to two weeks where the design involves marble or granite. Flooring and tiling is typically 3 to 4 weeks depending on the area. We give you the honest timeline at the quote stage.

Yes. We isolate the work area and keep dust to a minimum, and we ask that traffic through the work area stays low until you're asked for a walk-through or design approval.

Yes: $2,000,000 in liability coverage through Zen Insurance and licensed electricians and plumbers brought in where the work requires them. If something is not right, we come back and put it right.

Happily. We build to architectural drawings and 3D renderings all the time, and we flag anything that will not work in practice before it becomes an issue on site.
