basement french doors , stair repair, bathroom reapir. Also built a pergola on our deck.

Sean's guys were very professional and kept the dust down as my wife has allergies. Very clean and did a great job. Sean came over every couple of days to make sure job was done proper;y and talked with me...and I was able to discuss what I wanted. They also did a few extra small jobs willingly .
Overall A+ Would gladly recommend The Little Building Company to any of my friends.

Thanks Bill! We were happy to work with you to complete this renovation project and the pergola was a fun fall project. The additional items added were all very reasonable and we were happy to get them done while we were there anyway. Thanks again for great review!

Amazing Garage-to-Living Space Conversion

he Little Building Company was absolutely amazing to work with! We were converting our unfinished, uninsulated garage into additional living space, and the guys at The Little Building Company made our vision become a reality. They were awesome every step of the way: from coming out to do the initial quote and listening to our thoughts and ideas, to designing the space, and then making it all come together. Plus we really appreciated their eco-conscious values and ideas. The whole crew was friendly and professional and did a careful and thorough job on every part of the project. The space is absolutely beautiful now. You would never believe that it used to be an unfinished garage! I would recommend The Little Building Company to anybody!

Screen Porch Addition and Shed/Bunkie

We hired Sean & Dave to build us a screen porch addition to our family cottage, as well as replace an old shed with a shed/sleep bunkie combination. Sean was really helpful with the design of the shed in maximizing the space we had without having to lose any trees in the surrounding forest.

The LBC team that was onsite for most of May and June were a pleasure to have around. The new porch is a gorgeous addition to our family's cottage and the extra sleep space allowed us to invite other families up to the lake which was always difficult in the past.

The guys were extremely courteous, respectful and the quality of the work was most impressive. All of our neighbours commented on the work that was done and appreciated the considerations taken on our small lake.

We're already lining up more work for next summer.

Thanks for that great endorsement Amanda! I know that our entire crew enjoyed working at your beautiful cottage, with the exception of how bad the bugs were when we started! Thanks again for the great pictures you sent of the furnished screened-in porch and bunkie, they are some of the best photos showcased on our web page. Looking forward to getting back up there this summer!

Cottage addition

We had The Little Building Company build an addition onto our cottage and are very pleased with all aspects of the project. From the initial design through the building process, Sean and Dave communicated regularly with us, were professional to work with, and made the project enjoyable. We made some changes as the project moved through different stages and they were very open to adjusting the project to what we desired. The addition included a new steel roof, siding, complete interior refinishing of the existing cottage and addition in v-groove pine, removing trees, and electrical work. Sean and Dave dealt with a couple small concerns promptly and professionally and were a pleasure to work with.

Maintenance Free Railing and Pergola

The Little Building Company was very efficient, well organized and highly skilled and completed the job within the projected time frames.
I am extremely happy with the look of the pergola, the materials used to do the job and the work ethic and compatibility of the crew. I would highly recommend this company to my friends and family. An excellent job!

Treehouse and Bunkie

We could not be happier with our renovated bunkie and killer treehouse! Sean was a great collaborator. He and his team took our ideas, improved upon them, and the result was even better than we imagined. Even though we were based in the city while the work was happening, we were kept in the loop with regular phone and photo updates. We would definitely recommend The Little Building Company.

Shed

We love our little building! We had such a small space to work with and weren’t sure what would be possible. Sean and Dave custom-designed the perfect storage building for the end of our driveway.

Now all our kids’ bikes and outdoor gear fit in one place, the building looks great and ties together nicely with the colour and style of our home. It was a real pleasure to work with these guys – highly recommended.

Cedar Deck

I had hired Sean for some smaller jobs on a previous house and always found his work to be excellent and he is very professional in the way he conducts business. When it came time to replace a large deck on our current home we had Sean quote along with several other contractors and deck companies. All quotes were similar with Sean providing the lowest total cost. Sean and his crew were polite and always cleaned up the job site at the end of the day. Sean helped us design the deck and made many helpful suggestions along the way. We are extremely pleased with the final product that was built on time and on budget. The deck itself looks beautiful and is extremely well built and solid. Sean even went out of his way to fix a small platform on another exterior door at no extra cost. I highly recommend Sean Harris Construction. The build quality is excellent, the price was competitive, and most importantly I find Sean and his crew a pleasure to deal with.
