Across Hamilton, Stoney Creek, Ancaster and Dundas we build legal basement units, kitchens, washrooms and additions, and help homeowners add a second or third unit where the city allows it.

Your Hamilton contractor, from drawings to final inspection
Empire Design & Construction Limited serves Hamilton from our Brampton office, about 65 km south-west of Brampton via Highway 403. The same team handles your design, permits and construction, so nothing gets lost between trades.
Ontario allows up to three residential units on most lots, but zoning, parking and permit rules are set locally by City of Hamilton. We confirm what applies to your address before you commit, and our in-house BCIN designer prepares the drawings.
