General Contracting

At Ingenuity, we’re committed to sharing our expertise and insights with clients. We build buildings, but above all, we build relationships.

Most General Contractors don’t build buildings. We do. At Ingenuity, we focus on Craft, Trust, Ambassadorship, and Safety while mobilizing and choreographing teams of dedicated, trained professionals committed to a common objective.

We bring a perspective that informs future decisions and saves money in the long run.

We work with trades who’ve come to trust us as we build long-term relationships and partnerships.

We treat your tenants like our clients and share our insights based on their needs.

We sweat the details to ensure that safety is more than just prevention.

A Few Final Notes

Craft

Most General Contractors don’t build buildings. We do. It matters because:

We bring a perspective that can inform future decisions for multi-year planning, saving money in the long run.
We work with trades who’ve come to trust us; they answer when we call, give us an honest price, bring their A game, and share useful feedback.
We recommend materials that stand up, from companies that stand behind them.

Trust

The relationships we build lead to more sustainable projects and partnerships. Asking the right questions, working with better trades, and recommending better materials and approaches can lead to better speed to market and an ability to manage condensed construction schedules and tight turnaround times in the short term.

In the long term, well, who doesn’t benefit from happier tenants?

Ambassadorship

Ambassadorship is a funny word on a page about General Contracting. Not to us. From award through publication, right down the road to maintenance, we’re there for your tenants. It may not be a line item on our contract, but when your tenant is our client, we represent you. The impressions we make on them reflect on you. Don’t worry. Not only do we not charge for this role, but we actually have insights to share with you about your clients’ needs.

We’re particularly strong on:

Commercial
Industrial
Institutional
Multi-Family Residential

Safety

Safety is more than prevention. A focus on safety:

Sends a message to our partners and clients that we sweat the details.
Leads to a clean site.
Promotes quality and pride.
Eliminates rework, further reducing the risk of injury.

Safety is as much a business strategy for us as our attention to details or collaborative approach. Our clients and partners know this. Now that we’ve been receiving our industry’s premier safety award, the Ontario General Contractors Association (OGCA) Safety Award, every year, the industry does, too.

A Few Final Notes

Ingenuity is:

Bonded and insured.
Contractor Licensing – we are licensed and have built in many municipalities throughout Ontario.
LEED Accredited – The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification process, but we also look at it as a common sense process. Whether or not the building requires LEED certification, we will always present options and advise on how Energy and the Environment can be considered.
Safety Certified – Safety certifications are held by all Ingenuity staff. Industry minimum requirements are the bar for entry, not a badge–we strive for maximum safety. We are accident-free on all of our sites since we started the company.

Equiton

I love working with Ingenuity. I’ve worked on a lot of projects with them. They are very easy to work with, very understanding. They pay attention to details on our drawings. And if there are any issues, they bring them up, and they try to make them work, which makes it a smooth process from the beginning to the end.”

Annie Khan, Project Leader

Pearce McCluskey Architects

We have worked with numerous contractors in our 40-year history and find Ingenuity to be by far one of the best. There is very little ambiguity dealing with them, and the inevitable issues on site are dealt with as a team.”
