I hired Holland Homes to fully renovate a newly purchased 1965 bungalow (that had hardly been touched since being built) and the transformation was…. in a word…. AMAZING!
Holland are big enough to take on large residential jobs and have the attention of suppliers and the trades, but not so big that homeowners feel lost. They provide just that right level of professionalism and personal touch. At all times I felt heard and listened too, and that we were partners in the project. I had never undertaken a renovation project like this before, therefore was nervous about what I did not know and if I might overlook important things, but Holland were extremely attentive to my many questions and acted in an advisory role throughout the project. When a few unknowns arose, they never hesitated to provide balanced advice and recommendations. For Holland, it is not just about the contract signed, but rather about the finished product and customer satisfaction. Achieving this balance can be hard at the best of times, and when you overlay complexity of a job with the unpredictable impact of covid, and then add a demanding client with a high attention to detail (which I admit I am), and you still deliver a quality project on time, this is a true testament, which is why I highly recommend Holland Homes without hesitation.
We interviewed dozens of contractors as we planned a significant addition and large scale remodel to our nearly one hundred year old Westboro home - and every day that the project continued we became happier and happier with our decision to engage Holland Homes and Renovations. Whether it was the day that live knob and tube wiring was found buried in our walls or the day we learned that a previous renovation had simply decided that minor details like 'header beams' could be ignored as they ripped out walls, the calm confidence of the Holland team kept my wife and I from any number of anxiety attacks. The results? Spectacular. The project? On time (despite Covid related supply chain issues). The budget? As expected. I don't often provide recommendations - but I whole heartedly recommend Holland Homes to anyone planning their own major project.
We can sincerely and without hesitation fully endorse Holland Homes & Renovations to anyone considering a home renovation project in the Ottawa area. The Holland team is a highly-skilled, organized and professional operation at all project stages, from the initial design discussions through to the finishing touches. Company President Robert Breau and Project Manager Scott Wammes are a pleasure to work with and always available for consultation. The on-site crew are friendly, courteous, proficient and hard-working. Our project presented a number of challenges due to the age of the original structure, but all were overcome successfully by the Holland team to provide our family with a beautiful new space that has truly been a sanity saver during the ongoing pandemic.

We had a great experience with Holland when they built a large addition at our home. Robert and Scott were always available to answer questions and to come up with creative solutions to some of the inevitable issues that come up when renovating an older home. Most importantly, the project came in on time and on budget and we are very happy with the result! I would not hesitate to recommend Holland.
Our basement renovation goal was to have the largest room possible to give us maximum flexibility in use. Other contractors proposed a series of small rooms or a single weird shaped room because of challenges posed by low ducts placed in odd locations. It felt like building codes were restricting their creativity.
Holland Homes & Renovations gave us the big room we wanted and minimized the duct work without compromising our space. They listened to what we wanted and proposed workable solutions. Best of all, the work met the building code that the other contractors were using as excuses!
During construction there were the inevitable change discussions as we added features like a fireplace. Scott, Rob, and the whole crew always listened closely to what we wanted and provided great suggestions.
The best part of hiring Holland was they listened to us and defended our interests! We are very happy with the end result and look forward to using the space with our family.

Last year my husband and I decided to proceed with the addition of a mudroom. It was a project that we had wanted to have done for some time but had just kept putting it off. To celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary, we finally decided it was time to embark on our first professional renovation to our home. For this project, we retained the services of Holland Homes Renovations. Right from the very start, our experience was exceptional. Rob Brault and his team guided us through the process and the resulting structure surpassed our expectations..meeting all of our functional and budgetary objectives that were set before the project got underway. Given that we were so pleased with this addition, we set our sights a bit higher. We had an existing screened porch that we had enjoyed for many years. However, it was reaching the end of its lifespan and was in need of repair to remain useful. Knowing how much value our new mudroom added to the functionality and enjoyment of our home, we met with Rob and his foreman Scott to discuss the option of creating a permanent room to replace the porch. The finished product is something we are very proud of, we have great views of our gardens and property and it is warmed by a beautiful wood stove. We look forward to many years of enjoyment and entertaining. Our initial experience with Holland Homes was so successful that we decided to undertake a project that we previously would never have considered. Our new addition is fantastic and it looks like it has always been there.it was meant to be! I would wholeheartedly recommend Holland Homes Renovations. Donna & Mike, Kanata
When we were in the planning stages for a massive home renovation project last year, we came across Holland Renovations on TrustedPros and, based on the positive reviews, decided to invite them to bid for our job. They came in with a price that was dramatically lower than OGC and at the lower range of other, smaller firms that had been recommended to us by people we knew.
Ultimately, however, we chose Holland not just for cost reasons, but because we got a really good "feel" from our meetings with Scott and Rob. Of all the people we interviewed, they seemed like the most honest and relatable.
We have just finished the 5 month project, and Holland has not only lived up to but far surpassed all of our expectations. The finished product is absolutely beautiful. We now have a spacious, open, light-filled, modern home that is totally functional for our young family. Not only did they do the job on time and on budget, but they actually finished 4 weeks earlier than the best case scenario estimate.
Throughout the project, they have been great to work with. Scott and his crew are extremely hardworking and take a lot of pride in their work. Rob is excellent at managing the job timeline aggressively so that all of the subcontractors get their pieces done when they need to. He seems to care a lot about his company's reputation, which means that he always aims to deal fairly with his clients and make sure they come away from the job happy.
Going with Holland turned out to be a fantastic decision for us! We recommend them highly if you are thinking of a renovation.
Amy and Ellis, The project went really well. We are so pleased that you are happy both with the process and the final results. Your taste in product and finishes really added a lot to the finished product!
Our renovation project consisted of a complete renovation of our house. This included knocking down structural walls to create an open-concept main floor (included moving duct work and electrical), adding an ensuite bathroom, moving the kitchen, installing new flooring (hardwood and tiles), installing a gas fireplace, new HVAC units, new roof, new windows, spray foam insulation, updating bathrooms.
Right from the start, Rob showed that he was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Before we even signed a contract with his company, he drafted design ideas for our house.
There were many aspects to this renovation project and Rob & Scott managed all of them in an organized and efficient manner. During the project, we encountered different challenges and Rob took great care to find solutions to them. Rob is very analytical and resourceful, ensuring that we found the best solutions. We are very detailed-oriented and Rob & Scott always responded to our questions/ comments immediately. Rob was available around the clock to communicate or meet with us. Scott and his team have great workmanship and make sure to do things right. It is obvious that Rob & Scott are passionate about their jobs and they truly care about their work and their clients. A major renovation project can be stressful but Holland Renovations ensures that everything is taken care. We do not hesitate to recommend Holland Renovations and we will use them in future projects.
It was a pleasure working with you. We hope you are happy moving into your newly renovated house!
I would like to express my gratitude to the people at Holland Renovations for their excellent work renovating my kitchen. They were reliable, and always made sure that I was completely satisfied with the job while it was in progress. I would highly recommend them to all.

Thank you for the opportunity. Your kitchen turned out beautifully!
Robert and Scott of Holland homes more than exceeded our expectations. From the beginning they were punctual, honest, and very easy to work with. Before commencing construction in our basement we sought 3 separate quotes. Holland homes quote fell in the middle, but with the references they provided and the work that we saw, we feel that they provided superior results.
They built a beautiful apartment in our basement that required not only a very distinct knowledge but also an experienced skill set. We feel confident that all aspects of the dwelling unit are safe and more than meet code. The team was on time, kept a clean workspace and were more than happy to say hi.
One of the perks of working with the Holland team is that you have total control over the finishings and other elements of the project. Rather than be told what types of supplies we "had" to use, both Rob and Scott took the time to outline the pros and cons of various products and options and we felt that we were equipped to make the best decisions possible that fit our space, our budget and our needs.
Not only did they take care of all aspects of construction, but they consistently made sure that the job was seamless by limiting the impact on our daily life and addressed all concerns. It was a pleasure to work with a local team that made themselves available not because they had to, but because they truly care about the end result and your satisfaction.
We look forward to working with Holland Homes and their team of experts in our future projects and would highly recommend them to anyone considering taking on a challenging project.
Good luck with your rental endeavor Nick. We look forward to working with you again!
