Beautiful is only the beginning.
The finished space is what you see. The decisions behind the walls shape how it feels to live there, year after year.
Hundreds of projects since 1989, from custom homes and cottages to major renovations and additions.
Our project team, carpenters and trusted trades work together from the plans through the details on site.
THE STANDARD IS WHAT YOU CAN'T SEE
Look a little closer.
Move the line to see why the work beneath a finished room deserves attention. Framing, the building envelope, and the decisions made on site shape how a home lives for years.

After receiving a few quotes from different contractors to do a full renovation of our kitchen and dining room, we chose Henley because of how comfortable Nick and his team made us feel right from the first conversation.
From start to finish it took just over three weeks for the team to demolish our ugly, dated, and dark kitchen, and fully rebuild a stunning bright and light new space, designed with style and functionality in mind.
The Henley team was very responsive (shout out to Tom and Michelle), and kept us fully informed throughout the project with the Buildertrend app. They uploaded photos and notes to the app daily, so we always knew where the project was at and how things were progressing. We loved the transparency of this, especially not being at home through the reno.
Thank you Henley Contracting for completely transforming our space.
We are so happy with the final results! -

We recently collaborated with Henley Contracting on a custom cottage build in the Kawartha Lakes area, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Their team demonstrated unparalleled professionalism and attention to detail, ensuring that every aspect of the project met our exact specifications.
Communication was seamless throughout the process; they kept us informed at every stage and were always available to address any questions or concerns. The project was completed on schedule and within the agreed-upon budget, reflecting their commitment to reliability and efficiency.
The quality of workmanship exceeded our expectations, with meticulous craftsmanship evident in every facet of the build. The final result is a stunning cottage that not only meets but surpasses our vision.
We highly recommend Henley Contracting to anyone seeking a trustworthy and skilled contractor for custom home or cottage construction. Their dedication to excellence and customer satisfaction is truly commendable.
Ps. Thanks for the invite to your cottage this summer! Looking forward to it! -

My project started before the pandemic. Work was about 30% complete and going well. The pandemic hit me a bit financially which stressed me out about the project. The Henley team helped reverse engineer and descope some of the project to suit my new affordability. They handled this with class and professionalism which im sure created extra work for them. Communication was excellent and finished product is fantastic. I will never work with or recommend another contractor again
