My wife and I just had our basement finished by Fram Construction and I wanted to say that we are delighted with the results. James was very personable and professional from the first moment we met. He gave us a quote that was not changed, even though we did have a couple of extra little things done. No surprises. James and his team were at our home every day, on time and if they were not, there was always an explanation. We are happy with the work that was done and would recommend James for any construction work around the house.
Bill and the family were extremely pleasant clients. The pup was very affectionate as well.
Enjoyed finishing the space for them.

We contracted James to do a complete overhaul of a rental cottage we purchased in Niagara on the Lake. After interviewing other contractors - we felt that James was the perfect choice for our project. Even at the qualification stage; he showed more interest and spent more time than the others evaluating the scope of requirements. He offered constructive and in many cases cost saving options to complete the work. He kept in constant communication throughout the job and his work was meticulous. He was accommodating, flexible and an absolute pleasure to work with.
He turned our little "diamond in the rough" into a real gem!
Several of our guests have provided positive feed back on how beautiful the place looks.
Thank you James

I have never meet James prior to my hiring him. I found James Fram very honest with his pricing and work ethic. James was very acceptable to changes as the work went along and was very meticulous with all his work. My project lasted for 10 weeks to complete and James was at our door step everyday to get the job done putting in a full days work. I'm very happy with the work that was done and would recommend Fram construction for any future projects.

I have acted as a general contractor on every renovation, addition and new build I have completed over the past twenty plus years. I use sub contractors in many area's. I have plumbers I trust. As well electrical contractors. Gas fitters, and A heating/ air conditioning company I have dealt with.
We have been doing our own framing for renovations, basements, additions and new construction for years. I have roof trusses and systems built at the plant and we install on site.
We have worked with natural stone and concrete for over twenty years. We pour four to six inches of 3500PSI concrete all set with 4' deep sono tubes, and then cement random or square/rectangular flagstone on it. The work is all high end, and lasts for decades. Gardens walls, waterfalls and more.
I will sit down with you and help design any project you have in mind. When we have the features and basic structural design you are happy with I will then sit down with an engineer and architect I work with and produce the drawings necessary for the municipality you live in to approve the project.
We have installed all pre finished hardwood flooring for over twenty years. And laminate flooring for the past decade. We also prep the sub floor properly so it can accept the new flooring and seat itself as it should. We then finish all baseboard and trim work as well.
In addition to building and finishing alll renovations, additions and new builds. I spend time with my clients and help int he design of each area and room. Design and finish of the trims, crowns and cabinets. Right down to the flooring and color on the walls.

Our exterior hard landscaping is second to none. Stone patios, walkways, driveways. Waterfalls. Exterior fireplaces. rock retaing wall systems and garden rocks. We also build custom cedar decks and fences. Pool houses. Outdoor bars and entertainment area's. All of our structures are built on solid concrete bases. All the base structures are built with 4' deep sono tubes filled with 3500 PSI concrete and steel bars run from these, through the concrete base. We then cement natural stone to these bases if building patios and walkways. Or we use this base structure to build fireplaces, bars, pool houses etc on top. What we build...lasts.
My commercial business has worked for many big name companies such as Dominion grocery stores and I finished the interiors of all the Franklin printing stores in Canada. Many small retail store construction projects as well as day care construction. We have built a six classroom facility in Mississauga, with a full playground facility as well.
I can say with all honesty, I have had nothing but happy clients throughout my bussines life.
