About Us
Built on Strength. Grounded in Trust.
At Above Grade Contracting, concrete and masonry aren’t just the materials we work with — they’re the foundation of everything we stand for: strength, durability, and craftsmanship you can count on.
Our story began with a simple belief: quality work should always rise above the standard. What started as one man’s dedication to doing things right — even when no one was watching — has grown into a trusted contracting company serving Ottawa and the surrounding communities.
From the beginning, we saw a gap in the industry. Too often, homeowners and businesses were left frustrated by poor workmanship, missed deadlines, and short-term fixes. We knew it didn’t have to be that way. With a vision to build structures that last for generations — and relationships built on honesty and respect — Above Grade Contracting was born.
Why “Above Grade”?
The name says it all. “Above grade” isn’t just a construction term — it’s a promise. We go above the baseline, above expectations, and above the ordinary with every project we take on. Whether it’s a strong foundation, a flawless walkway, or intricate masonry detailing, our work is designed to stand the test of time.
Our Craft
We specialize in concrete and masonry solutions for both residential and commercial projects. From decorative concrete driveways to solid retaining walls, patios, and custom stonework, we blend functionality with beauty to transform spaces and strengthen foundations.
Our Commitment
At Above Grade Contracting, we believe the best projects are built on more than stone and mortar — they’re built on trust. Every job we take on, big or small, is guided by three core principles:
- Quality – Work done right the first time, with attention to detail in every step.
- Integrity – Clear communication, honest timelines, and no shortcuts.
- Pride – A team that cares as much about your project as you do.
Moving Forward
Today, Above Grade Contracting continues to grow, but our values remain the same. We’re proud to be part of Ottawa’s landscape — one sidewalk, wall, and foundation at a time. When you choose us, you’re not just hiring contractors; you’re partnering with people who care about your project as much as you do.
Above Grade Contracting — Built to Last. Built for You.
