The difference between
a home renovation &
an ARTISAN RENOVATION

We know that when we guess, you end up with stress.

For that reason we don’t do estimates. We offer a free initial consultation, and we will provide a quote, but we can’t be accurate until we do a design. It’s a small commitment early on in the process, so that you can make good decisions and avoid surprises later. We like to say, “a little up front, or a lot more later.” To help you in your decision-making, read The 10 Things to Consider When Hiring a Contractor.

Our experience will make yours better.

J.OTT Home Renovations was founded in 1989 by President and Founder Jim Ott. Already providing home additions and renovations to clients since 1985, Jim created a business that combined his extensive experience and skill with integrity. He still prides himself on an honest approach, seeing that as the key to success through referrals from happy customers. Since then, now joined by his son Alex, the business continues to operate with the core values of honesty, planning, and craftsmanship. These values guide a practical, current, working knowledge of renovation design and home construction. To reflect the changes to the business over the years, J.OTT Home Renovations became Artisan Contracting by J.OTT in 2009. Along with the name change, the company image had a renovation of its own. Today, Artisan is one of the highest regarded Canadian Home Renovation Companies in Burlington, Hamilton and Oakville, Ontario.
