Question 8

What services does HMJ Contracting offer?

Accepted Answer

HMJ Contracting is a licensed Ottawa general contractor offering interior renovations (kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and full-home), certified asbestos, mould, and lead abatement, interior and structural demolition, junk removal and property cleanouts, and custom deck and fence installation. Because one company handles both renovation and hazardous-material removal, older Ottawa homes can be tested, abated, and renovated by a single certified crew.

Question 9

Why choose HMJ Contracting over other Ottawa contractors?

Accepted Answer

Three things set HMJ apart. First, 25+ years of experience with a 5.0 Google rating from Ottawa homeowners. Second, HMJ is one of the few local contractors licensed for both renovation and full abatement — certified for Type 1, 2, and 3 asbestos work plus mould and lead — so if hazardous materials turn up mid-project, the same crew handles it instead of stopping the job for a third party. Third, every project is fully insured and WSIB-compliant, with written estimates and complete documentation, including disposal waybills and air-clearance results you can hand to a realtor, lender, or insurer.
