Ottawa homeowners looking to gut a dated ensuite or finally fix that leaky basement bathroom have a lot of contractors to choose from, and not all of them are worth the deposit. To put this list together, we searched Google Business Profiles, Houzz, HomeStars, TrustedPros and ProvenExpert for companies actively serving the Ottawa region, then cross-checked ratings, review counts and customer comments against each company's own site. Here are ten worth calling for a quote.
1. Be Leaf Renovation
Area: Ottawa, Kanata, Nepean, Orleans, Barrhaven and Stittsville · Specialty: bathroom renovations exclusively · Rating: 5.0 on Google (40+ reviews) · Since: 2017
Be Leaf works only on bathrooms, and reviewers on TrustedPros and Houzz consistently mention founder Olexander personally overseeing every job site. The narrow focus shows up in the waterproofing and tile detail customers describe, and the company backs its work with a stated multi-year warranty. Good fit for homeowners who want a specialist rather than a general contractor juggling multiple trades.
2. Five Star Bath Solutions of Ottawa
Area: Ottawa and surrounding area · Specialty: bathroom and shower remodels
Five Star is a bathroom-only franchise operation, and its Ottawa location reports 94.5% of customers rating their service excellent to outstanding before, during and after installation. It's a solid pick for homeowners who want a fast, standardized shower or tub-to-shower conversion process rather than a fully custom design build, since the franchise model leans on proven product lines and set installation timelines.
3. Ottawa Bath Renovation
Area: Barrhaven and greater Ottawa · Specialty: full bathroom renovations · Rating: 5.0 on Google (29 reviews) · Since: roughly 10 years in business
This Barrhaven-based outfit has built a strong local reputation with a clean 5-star record and a design-to-completion process customers describe as smooth on connectottawa.ca and its own site. It suits homeowners who want a company small enough to be responsive but with enough history to have ironed out the rough edges.
4. On Point Renovations
Area: Ottawa and surrounding area · Specialty: bathroom renovations and custom kitchens · Rating: 5.0 on Google · Since: 2020
Founded by two Ottawa-based tradespeople with a combined construction background, On Point says it completes more than 200 bathroom projects a year, and reviews on HomeStars back up the volume with repeated mentions of on-time, on-budget work and clear communication. A good choice for homeowners who want a company that has scaled up quickly without a drop in reviews.
5. IK Home Improvement
Area: Ottawa · Specialty: general contracting, including bathroom remodels · Rating: 5.0 on Houzz (18 reviews)
IK Home Improvement, run by Igor, picked up Houzz's "Best in Service" award every year from 2018 through 2021. Reviewers describe him handling everything from bathroom gut renovations to egress window work, which makes this pick better suited to homeowners tackling a bathroom as part of a bigger renovation rather than a standalone bathroom-only job.
6. Murdock Construction
Area: Ottawa · Specialty: kitchens, bathrooms and full home remodels · Rating: 4.9 on Houzz (11 reviews)
Murdock holds six Houzz awards, including 2021 honours for both Best of Service and Best of Design. Customers on Houzz single out the company's transparency about timelines and deliverables, which matters most for homeowners who have been burned before by a contractor that goes quiet mid-project.
7. 360Renos
Area: Ottawa, based on Dunning Road · Specialty: kitchen and bathroom renovations, plumbing and electrical included
360Renos says it draws on more than 30 years of combined industry experience, and TrustedPros reviews repeatedly mention project manager Dave and the crew being communicative, on time and forthcoming when unexpected issues come up mid-job. Reviewers also note the company handles plumbing and electrical in-house rather than subcontracting it out, which can simplify scheduling on a full gut renovation.
8. Distinctive Bathrooms & Kitchens
Area: Orleans and greater Ottawa · Specialty: bathroom and kitchen renovation with an in-house showroom · Rating: 4.7 (152 reviews) · Since: 1989
DBK is the elder statesman on this list, in business since 1989 with a showroom of 30 bathroom displays and eight full kitchens for homeowners who want to see and touch finishes before committing. HomeStars reviewers give it a 92% StarScore and consistently praise the design consultation process, making it a strong option for anyone who wants heavy design input rather than a straightforward like-for-like remodel.
9. Select Urban General Contractors
Area: Ottawa and Barrhaven · Specialty: bathroom renovations, including accessible and handicap-accessible bathrooms · Rating: 4.96 on ProvenExpert (27 reviews)
Select Urban has a dedicated accessible renovations line alongside standard bathroom work, and reviewers describe the crew as detail-oriented with clean job sites and projects finishing on time and on budget. Worth a call for homeowners planning an aging-in-place or accessibility-focused bathroom, not just a cosmetic refresh.
10. KBR Inc.
Area: Ottawa and Kanata, including Westboro, Stittsville, Bells Corners and Barrhaven · Specialty: bathroom renovations exclusively, including condo and basement bathrooms
Founded by Antoine, KBR focuses only on bathrooms, from small three-piece condo baths to full four-piece renovations. Reviews posted on the company's own site describe sharp tile work, a clean job site throughout the project, and communication that stayed consistent from the first meeting to the final walkthrough. A solid option for a smaller-footprint bathroom, like a condo or basement, where specialists tend to work more efficiently than generalist crews.
