07
Re-Roofing & New Roof Installation
Roof repair and replacement, with the deck, ventilation and flashings checked.
Before a wall is closed, we check what is behind it.
- 1
The existing wall
Checked for moisture and cracks before anything is built in front of it. If something is wrong, you hear about it now, not after the drywall.
- 2
Moisture protection
The layer that keeps water out of the room. We confirm it before the next layer goes on.
- 3
Insulation
Chosen and written into your scope, so you know what you are paying for and what it is meant to do.
- 4
Framing and vapour control
Framed to the drawn plan. Where your permit calls for an inspection, we book it before this is closed.
- 5
The finished surface
Drywall goes on last, once the checks before it are done and signed off.
From scope to handover.
Five stages, in the same order every time. At each one you know what you decide and what you receive.
01
First conversation
You decide: Whether the project is worth scoping.
You receive: A site visit, and a clear list of what we still need from you.
02
Scope
You decide: Whether the scope and the price structure suit you.
You receive: A written scope and an estimate that follows it.
03
Planning
You decide: The contract terms, the payment schedule and your start window.
You receive: A signed contract, submitted permit applications and a schedule.
04
Work
You decide: Any change, before it is built.
You receive: Progress updates at the interval in your contract, and inspection results as they arrive.
05
Closeout
You decide: Whether the finished work matches the scope, and what is still outstanding.
You receive: The walkthrough, completed outstanding items and your project documents.
What you will hold in your hands.
Project photos will appear here once clients approve them. Until then, these are the three documents that carry a project, shown as layouts, not client records.

See where the money goes
Most renovation quotes are a single number. Under a cost-plus contract you pay the documented cost of the work plus a fee agreed in advance. It is not right for every project, so here is an even comparison.
Neither approach is always cheaper. We recommend the one that suits your project and tell you why.
| Consideration | Cost-plus | Fixed-price |
|---|---|---|
| Cost structure | Documented costs plus an agreed fee | One agreed price for a defined scope |
| Flexibility | Accommodates a changing scope | Changes need a revised price |
| Documentation | You see supplier and trade invoices | You see the scope and change orders |
| Budget certainty | Final cost can be above or below the budget | More certainty when the scope does not change |
| Your involvement | Ongoing cost visibility and decisions | Mostly at scope approval |
Where we work
We are based in Calgary and serve six surrounding communities. Each has its own permit office, and we plan around the one that applies to you.
Permits take time to be issued, and some exterior work depends on the weather. If you have a season in mind, start the conversation early.
Not ready to talk yet?
Start with a planning tool. Both are free.
Before you get in touch
What areas do you serve?
Calgary, Okotoks, Cochrane, Airdrie, Chestermere, Strathmore and Balzac.
How do I get an estimate?
Request a consultation. After a site visit you receive a written scope and an estimate that follows it line by line.
Do you publish prices?
No. The cost of a basement, suite or exterior depends on the house and the finishes. We explain what drives cost on each service page and price your project from a written scope.
What is cost-plus construction?
You pay the documented cost of labour, materials and trades, plus a fee agreed in advance. You see the invoices. It suits projects where the scope may change.
Who looks after permits and inspections?
Your written scope lists every permit the project needs and states who applies for each one. Inspections are booked at the stages the permit requires.
How are changes handled?
A change is described, priced and approved by you in writing before the work is done.
