Company Background
About Capital Homes
Capital Homes was founded by Conor Gibbons in 2010 and works as a design-build firm, which means one team plans, designs, coordinates and builds the project. The office is at 116 Albert Street downtown, an office address where consultations usually begin online, with an on-site review scheduled once the project moves forward. Call ahead before you drop by.
The company builds custom homes but also takes on major renovations, additions, kitchens, bathrooms and basements. Its site says it focuses on full-scope projects and gives indicative starting figures: major renovations from $200,000, additions from $250,000, kitchens from $100,000, bathrooms from $75,000 and full basement renovations from $150,000. Those are the company's own guide figures, set during consultation, and they place Capital Homes at the premium end of this list.
Credentials are unusually specific. The About page shows HCRA Licence B64448, and the site says Capital Homes is a Tarion Registered Builder, RenoMark Verified and a member of the Greater Ottawa Home Builders' Association. Tarion's statutory warranty applies to the new homes it builds. For renovations, the site states a 2-year workmanship warranty covering labour and installation, with manufacturer warranties honoured on materials. The team page lists an owner, a project manager, an operations manager and an interior designer, and the company says it handles permits and engineering through trusted partners.
Capital Homes serves homeowners within about 30 minutes of central Ottawa, from the Glebe and Rockcliffe Park to Westboro, Manotick and Greely. Google shows 4.9 from 113 reviews, read October 30, 2026, and its photos show open kitchens with large islands, a spa-style bathroom and a front entry mudroom.
It suits owners planning a major project who want a licensed builder and design under one roof. It suits less well a small refresh or a tight budget. Before you book, ask for a written itemized contract, the HCRA licence lookup result, WSIB and liability insurance certificates, who applies for City of Ottawa permits, and what the 2-year warranty excludes.

Capital Homes FAQs
Is Capital Homes a licensed builder in Ottawa?
Capital Homes shows HCRA Licence B64448 on its About page and says it is a Tarion Registered Builder and RenoMark Verified. Ontario has no provincial renovation licence, so also ask for its WSIB clearance certificate and liability insurance, and confirm the HCRA number on the regulator's public lookup.
How much does Capital Homes charge for a renovation?
The company publishes indicative starting figures: major renovations from $200,000, additions from $250,000, kitchens from $100,000, bathrooms from $75,000 and full basements from $150,000. It says a realistic investment is set during consultation, so ask for a written itemized quote.
What warranty does Capital Homes offer on renovations?
Every renovation carries a 2-year workmanship warranty covering labour and installation, with manufacturer warranties honoured on materials. Ontario's Tarion warranty applies to new homes the company builds, not to renovations.

What warranty do they offer?
