WHO WE ARE

We design it, price it, build it.

Clearview is an Ottawa design-build team. We plan your renovation, give you the real number up front so you know the cost before you commit, then build it from start to finish.

WHAT WE OFFER

From demolition to the finish.

Demolition, concrete, framing, and full renovations. Foundation crack repair and waterproofing, basements and legal suites, additions, kitchens, bathrooms, decks, above-ground pools, steps and walkways, egress windows, and commercial fit-outs. If it's construction in Ottawa, we build it.

What we do best.

The work we're known for across Ottawa. Designed around how you live, priced to the line before we start, and built by one team.

Kitchen renovation in Ottawa

Kitchen renovations

The kitchen is where a renovation earns its keep. We plan the layout, cabinetry, and finishes around how you actually cook and gather, then price every line, from cabinets and counters to appliances, plumbing, and electrical, before a single wall comes down. You get the real number up front, then we build it with our own trades.

  • Custom cabinetry & islands
  • Quartz & natural stone counters
  • Lighting and electrical upgrades
Foundation crack repair in Ottawa

Foundation crack repair & waterproofing

A cracked or leaking foundation doesn't wait, so neither do we. Send us a photo of the crack and you'll have your real repair number the same day, and most single-crack repairs are done within 24 hours of signing the contract. Crack injection, exterior membranes and weeping tile, interior drainage and sump pumps, sealed at the source, not patched over.

  • Same-day estimate, 24-hour repair
  • Polyurethane & epoxy crack injection
  • Interior & exterior waterproofing

Finished basement and legal suite in Ottawa

Basements & legal suites

An unfinished basement is the cheapest square footage you'll ever add. We turn it into finished living space, or a fully permitted secondary suite that pays you rent, handling framing, egress, plumbing, HVAC, and the code details that keep it legal. Every estimate reflects live Ottawa supplier pricing and current building-code requirements.

  • Legal secondary suites (SDUs)
  • Egress windows & fire separation
  • Rental-ready income space
Whole-home renovation in Ottawa

Whole-home renovations

When a house needs more than one room rethought, we take the whole project end to end. From demolition and structure to the final coat of paint, we sequence every trade, price the entire scope in one clear document, and manage the build, so you're not chasing five contractors. One number, one team, one timeline.

  • Full gut & structural work
  • Additions & layout changes
  • One coordinated schedule

We build with materials from these Ottawa suppliers.

The same Ottawa yards we buy from every day. Real local pricing on real materials, no stale national databases, no averages.

We design it before we build it.

We design your space in photorealistic 3D before a shovel hits dirt, so you see exactly what we're building and nothing gets lost in translation.

Common questions.

Do you actually build the project, or just estimate it?
We build it. Clearview is an Ottawa design-build company. We start by giving you the real number and a clear scope of work for free, and if you like the number and the plan, we build it, start to finish.
What does it cost to get my number?
Your real number plus a general scope of work is free. If you want the full detailed estimate, drawings, line-by-line takeoffs, supplier sourcing, schedule, to keep and shop to other contractors, that's a flat $500. No tiers, no upsells. Full breakdown on the Pricing page.
Why is the number free?
Because we're the builder. We'd rather show you the truth up front and earn the build than win you over with a teaser quote we claw back later in change orders. You get the real number with no obligation, if it's not for you, no pressure.
Then why does the detailed estimate cost $500?
Because it's real work, measuring, drawing, sourcing, and pricing every line takes days. It's built for homeowners who want a document they can take and compare against other contractors. Reference drawings are included when your project needs them to be built from (a layout change, an addition); a simple like-for-like swap may not, we'll tell you up front.
What's in the $500 detailed estimate?
Scaled floor plans, photorealistic renders, a 50-to-300-line material takeoff, the Ottawa supplier each line is priced from, labour hours by trade, a construction schedule, and a fixed-dollar cost breakdown. Yours to keep and take to any contractor.
How accurate is the number?
Every line item is quantified from your space and priced against live Ottawa supplier data. Quantities are objective. A 14×12 room has the drywall it has. What moves the number afterward is scope change (you added a feature, picked a more expensive finish), not estimating error. We don't ballpark anything. It's the same number we'd build to.
Are you really independent if you also build?
We're upfront about it: we're a builder, and we'd like to build your project. That's exactly why the number is honest, it's the real number we'd stand behind and build to, not a bid we pad later. And if you want a fully portable second opinion, the $500 detailed estimate is yours to compare against anyone in Ottawa.
What if I decide not to build after seeing the number?
No problem. The number is yours, and some homeowners use it specifically to decide not to renovate, or to wait. That's a valid outcome. Better to find out the real cost now than partway through construction. No obligation to proceed.
How do I get started?
Book a free on-site visit (or call us first if you'd rather talk it through). We meet, measure, and photograph the space, then send your real number and scope. No prep work needed on your end.
