Hear from our past clients

We have hired Capital City Construction for multiple home renovations. Each time we have been very pleased with the outcome. James provides excellent workmanship at a fair price. He listens, provides feedback when asked and will offer suggestions for your consideration. He organizes his trades and follows through each job to completion. James and all his trades show respect for your property, and clean up after themselves. We have recommended James to several of our friends.

I am happy to write this recommendation for James and his crew at Capital City Construction. James completely re-modelled our 1938 vintage (and very ugly) laundry room turning it into a beautiful space, complete with pull out drawers, counter and cupboards for storage. He also suggested turning the additional space into a mudroom, with a bench for additional storage (sports equipment) and various hooks for coats. It was beautiful! We have since moved into a brand new home, but I still miss that laundry room. He then moved into our vintage bathroom and tore out the ugly small tiled shower stall and prepped/installed a beautiful marble shower, and painted the bathroom. When we had a new kitchen designed and installed, we hired them to do the painting. His painters are excellent and his cabinet maker is amazing - very creative and makes good use of space. He and his crew have done various jobs for us over the years and we are set to have our new home repainted along with some drywall fixes. James has a great sense of colour, design and style and will offer ideas that you haven't even dreamed of. I have recommended him several times over the years and will continue to do so. He is meticulous in his work and leaves the work site clean and tidy at the end of his work day. He also sticks to your budget! Highly recommend!

James Latham has done two jobs for us, one quite open ended. He is creative, honest, extremely skilled, and has a good sense of which projects are worth pursuing. Can't recommend him highly enough.

James and his team did an excellent job on our full-scale kitchen renovation. The project was completed on budget, on-time and to a high standard. We were especially pleased that James and his crew worked extra hard to fit it in unexpected work in our tenant's suite with minimal disruption to the tenant and on a tight timeframe. James is easy to chat with, creative and ensures the work is well done. We also noticed that all of the sub trades that he coordinated and brought into our home were equally friendly, professional and punctual. We felt fully confident entrusting our home and this project to him. We were also thrilled with how tidy and clean they kept the job site. We were very pleased with the final result and would highly recommend Capital City Construction for any project and we plan to use them for future house upgrades.

James and Stuart renovated our small condo kitchen for us. They were able to get everything done in a timely fashion to make it easier for us. James kept everything going smoothly. I’ll definitely be using them again for more renos.

We first met James through the project manager of our major kitchen renovation. James is a genuine, nice person who is a pleasure to work with. James offered us solutions and listened to our preferences. He considered budgetary options. He responded quickly to all of our phone calls or emails. His crew arrived when expected, worked efficiently and professionally, and did a great job of cleaning up at the end of each day. He and his crew did a fabulous job. We have subsequently hired James to remodel a basement bathroom, check out a mould problem, and renovate two downstairs bedrooms. We have been pleased with every job. Capital City Construction is our "go to" solution for any home repairs or construction. We have been pleased with all of the work they have done for us. We highly recommend Capital City Construction for any home repair or renovation.

They did a major renovation to our suite, basically had them open up walls, update and replace the whole suite. On time and on budget, amazing! Best of all we live in a building with lots of seniors, and James (the owner) was so courteous and careful about noise and cleanup that our neighbors like him better than us. Thanks guys for making a big job a pleasant experience for everyone. Since the major work, we have had them come in for some smaller jobs, always helpful. Highly recommend these guys.

James is professional and reliable. He turned our ghetto bathroom into a spa-like atmosphere. He was tidy and very respectful of our place laying tarps down to keep the reno mess to a minimum . He was on budget and there were no costly surprises. I would recommend CCC to anyone wanting quality work by a local professional.

We had a fantastic experience with Capital City Construction. We needed an old, outdated shower stall and partial wall removed and replaced with a new, space-saving shower stall. James understood exactly what we were trying to do and recommended an excellent product that fit our budget. He completed the project on time and came in exactly on budget. James has a keen eye for detail and cleans meticulously as he works. Each day he left the space spotless. He went "above and beyond" by completing additional drywall and painting work to help us out and also generously offered to take an old wood stove to recycling for us. We will definitely be contacting Capital City Construction again for any of our interior or exterior home renovation needs. Thanks again James!

After being left hanging by another local contractor, we turned to Capital City Construction to bail us out on our kitchen renovations. James’ crew did a complete kitchen reno and opened up a wall between the kitchen and dining area. James and his crew did a great job. Project was on-time & on-budget. Can’t ask for anything more from a trustworthy company.

James Latham and Capital City Construction came highly recommended to us from several friends. After successfully completing an extensive full-house renovation for my parents, we had no hesitation in trusting them to take on our garage renovation. From start to finish, James has been a pleasure to work with. He is communicative, friendly and positive, and does quality work. James is solution-oriented and trustworthy. The trades he has hired are also top notch. Capital City Construction is the full package and we will no doubt be hiring them again for further renovations. Thank you, James!

I required a hot tub pad, upper and lower decks, support beams and sun room renovation and flooring throughout the upper area. James Latham and his hard working crew were entrusted with my home and provided timely and incredibly high quality workmanship. The custom cedar work is extremely pleasing. His professional attitude and fair price ensures that I would not hesitate to contact him for future renovations.

James and his crew have done work for me for the last 10 years. From redoing my kitchen 10 years ago, to redoing bathrooms, bedrooms, living room, porch etc. etc. over the years. I have now moved and they have redone a suite for me and soon will be doing my kitchen. I have recommended James and crew to many friends and family. All are very pleased with the work and glad they have someone they can trust. I would not hesitate to recommend Capital City Construction.

James recently completed a small project in our condo. He replaced an existing electric fireplace with an new one and installed a TV over it. He also upgraded hallway closet doors and installed hardwood in another closet. He is reliable, friendly, competent and reasonable. We are very happy with the results.

James is knowledgeable, competent and willing to work with his customers to meet their home improvement needs, big or small.

Capital City Construction is a very good company to have work in your home. They completed a Bathroom & Kitchen renovation and were always on time and cleaned up throughly at the end of the job. They are a very skilled company indeed.

James and crew did a wonderful job renovating 2 bathrooms for me. They completed both jobs under budget and well within the time frame I was quoted initially. I will definitely come back to Capital City Construction for any future renovation needs!

James, Stu and their chosen tradesmen did a first rate job with our kitchen reno. They are totally reliable and we felt we were their first priority. No unnecessary waiting, here at 8:00 am to start work, really friendly and reliable. James also arranged for some landscaping and that also went without a hitch. We have no hesitation in recommending their services, no matter what the project. Five stars!

James Latham, owner of Capital City Construction is a pleasure to work with. He's a skilled builder who excels in customer service and has the knowledge to do a job properly. I've worked with James for a number of years now on many different projects and would highly recommend this business for renovation work.

We recently hired James Latham (owner of Capital City Construction) to do a full renovation of our kitchen, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! His work is top-notch—everything was completed with great attention to detail and craftsmanship. He stayed on budget, which we really appreciated, and the tradespeople he brought in—especially the plumber and electricians—were excellent as well. Throughout the project, he communicated clearly and consistently, keeping us informed every step of the way. He was also incredibly kind and flexible, especially when our schedule needed to change. On top of all that, he was so kind and patient with our dogs, which meant a lot to us. It made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering a home renovation—you’ll be in great hands!
