For General Contractors
The design-build partner you can put on every job.
You need a team that shows up when it is scheduled, builds to the architect's and engineer's plans the first time, and passes inspection clean so the rest of the work can move. That is Andare Homes, a licensed, insured, WSIB-covered general contractor across Toronto and the GTA, Tarion-registered, with a 5.0 rating from 55 reviews and a 3-year workmanship warranty behind the work.
A team that holds your schedule
The early stages sit on the critical path. If the crew is late, undermanned, or trickling in over two weeks, every trade behind it backs up, and your draw schedule with it. We staff to the build. When we commit to a start date, we hit it with a full crew sized to the scope, and we work the project straight through instead of leaving you with a half-finished shell.
- Firm start dates we plan our calendar around, not optimistic guesses.
- Crews sized so the work moves continuously, stage to stage.
- Realistic durations up front so you can sequence follow-on trades with confidence.
- Someone on site you can actually reach when a question comes up mid-job.
Built to plan, inspection-ready, no rework
Rework is the silent killer of a GC's margin. A misread detail, a wall an inch off the gridline, an opening built to the wrong dimension, it all comes back to you in change orders, re-inspection fees, and lost days.
We build to the architectural set and the structural drawings as drawn: correct layouts, proper headers and beams, blocking where the plans call for it, openings dimensioned right the first time. Walls go up plumb, square, and level.
When the inspector arrives, the work tells the story for itself, with load paths intact, connectors installed per the engineer's details, and everything where it belongs. As your general contractor, our job is to hand you work that passes clean so you are not eating a second visit. Whether it is a custom home, a home addition, or a whole-home renovation, what is on the drawings is what gets built.
Coordination with your engineer, architect, and trades
Good construction is not just following a drawing, it is reading the whole set and catching the conflicts before they become field problems. Our in-house design team coordinates the way a reliable partner should: flagging a detail that does not line up, confirming a questionable spec with the engineer instead of guessing, and leaving the work ready for the trades who follow.
- We raise an RFI with the engineer or architect on ambiguous details rather than improvising on your dime.
- We frame chases, soffits, and dropped ceilings so HVAC, plumbing, and electrical have a clean path.
- We coordinate bearing points and beam placement so loads land where the design intends.
- We keep you in the loop on anything that affects sequence, budget, or the next trade up.
Complex builds, long spans, and engineered structure
The jobs that scare off a lot of crews are the ones we are built for. Cut-up rooflines, vaulted and cathedral ceilings, long clear spans carried on engineered lumber, steel-to-wood connections, cantilevers and transfer beams, we build them to the engineered design with the right hangers, fasteners, and bearing.
We carry second-storey additions and full custom homes from structure through finish, and we build to the structural details so the spans perform exactly as designed.
When a build has a tricky load path or a feature roof, you do not want a crew learning on your project. You want a team that has done it, reads the structural drawings fluently, and will not compromise the design to save a few cuts.
