Here's a throw back to one of our bathroom remodels. This brought a lot of life back Into the house and brightened it up. Even through a heat lamp in to keep our clients warm when getting out from a shower. Thanks to the great help of @eyb_renovations we finished this one up beautifully. #bathroomremodeling #backtolife #remodel #construction #renovation #carpentry #tiledshower #riverrock #lineardrain #heatlamp

One of our last outdoor projects of the year. Cedar all the way! With some black tones it really comes together nicely. #cedar #blackmetal #fall #seasonend #winterscoming

Now that is a fresher look and a huge upgrade! We are looking to fill our 2024 spring & summer schedule, so give us a shout to start the booking process. ✌️❤️

Upland Builds is very excited to showcase this beautiful kitchen renovation! We had some material delays along the way, but with some patience and perseverance we were able to complete this project for our client. The island stands out as a great seating area and tons of space for food prep and gathering. Our client had a request to build a customized puppy station below the bar area which looks amazing. Great job done by the Upland Builds team. Thanks @psgtile.inc for the great work on the floor #newkitchen #tiledfloor #remodel #renovation #doggystation #custominterior #proudowner #happyclient

Time to showcase this beautiful job done by the Upland Builds team. Good job guys! Nicely finished with Azek products and an amazing job cutting custom design into the steel @virtucom_metals ! #steelpanel #azek #nicefish #finishcarpentry #proudteam #finishproduct

A sneak peak into one of our projects. We incorporated some Laser cut aluminum panels with a custom design. Combined with the cedar posts, this really looks neat. #lasercutmetal #cedarpost #greenery🌿 #compositedecking #azek #sneekpeek #anotherday #augustalready

This beauty is all wrapped up. Our clients wanted to recreate the design of their old deck, so that's exactly what we did. This time with quality cedar. We added some regal railing, and used a Hoft system for the privacy panel. We are very happy with the outcome and most importantly, so are the clients. #cedardeck #backyardpool #greenery🌿 #beautifultrees #compliments #matching #regalrailing #cedarandblack

The last couple days have been dedicated to building stringers for this beautiful cedar deck which boasts three separate sets of stairs 👌 Good job team! #cedardeck #stairstringers #stairs #greenery #backyardpool #beautifuldesign

This week we popped inside to finish up the backsplash on one of our ongoing projects. #verticletile #neverdonebefore #kitchenremodel

Decks demolished ✔️ Projects commencing! #deckseason #demolitioncrew #cedar #composite

Deck season. Best time of the year! The team is starting this soon to be beautiful PVC deck using the Azek line. It's going to have cedar and laser cut aluminum panels for a privacy panel. Can't wait to see the result. Contact us if you're looking to have a backyard project built this summer. From the designing stages to the building stages, we will help guide you. #azek #pvcdeck #niceweather #deckszn

Sunny days call for some outdoor painting. Hunter and Jackson are hard at it spraying some paneling for this kitchen Reno and soon to start on the island. Counters to be installed soon. We will soon be able to show you the before and after of this kitchen remodel! ———————————————— #kitchenremodel #paintspraying #hardatwork #maskson #takeadvantageofsunnydays☀️

The counter tops have been installed at one of our kitchen projects. Along with white cabinets, it makes this kitchen pop. It's really incredible how it changes. @vestadesigncentre #kitchenremodel #quartzcountertops #veinycountertop #kitchenprojects #almostcomplete

All day. Everyday. 🖤 As this annual observance comes to an end, we would like to shed light and support Black Ottawa Connect, a non-profit organization located in our community. We invite you to consult their amazing programs/events and donate if you have the resources! @blackottawaconnect #blackhistorymonth #blacklivesmatter #blacklivesstillmatter

This is the new entryway to our clients kitchen renovation. To open up a wall and create a new set of stairs you have to predetermine a couple of things. •Is there electrical that needs to be moved? If so, make a plan with your subcontractor where to relocate. •Is there proper support for the stairs? If not, add it. •Is it a structural wall you're opening up? If so, determine the proper way to do this. Hire a professional if you need to. As simple as this task is, there are a few things to keep in mind!

Something about how the lighting from these sconces bounce off the floating shelf and bring out the dark features and nice ambiance in the master bedroom. We're in the process of staining the floors, and bringing life back into this home. #ambiancelighting #darkfeatures #proudofourwork #staytuned

It's been a couple of painting days for these folks and they are doing a heck of a job. We are getting close to wrapping up this remodeling project for our clients and we are excited to show it off. #paintdays #remodeling #feelslikespring☀️

Our employees started with the drum sander, and floor edger in conjunction slower getting our way to 120grit. The next step in the sanding process is to use this machine. It is a large orbital sander. The idea of using this is to blend the floor sanding pattern, so the stain absorbes the same everywhere. Enjoy the process!

We're making headway with our next project. This consists of a carpet tear out, and refinishing of the hardwood underneath in three bedrooms. New lighting. New doors and a repainting. The bathroom is a complete gut, and we will be installing a custom shower. #homerenovationideas #bathroomgut #customshower #moderntouches

It's complete! This one was a complete gut and remodel. What a ride and we had fun during the process. We are once again successful at giving our clients a beautiful kitchen, and we couldn't be happier. Jake and Hunter are trusted employees of Upland Builds, and they put their sweat and hardwork into this one. We haven't been updating you a lot with the process, but here it is now ! @vestadesigncentre for the counter @simpson_electrical_solutions for the electrical A+plumbing for the plumbing work

We're in the middle of our first kitchen renovation this winter, and we realized we haven't been posting much. We have been busy though! Mudding is underway and painting will come right after, and then we can move onto putting the finishing touches with the cabinets. Have a great day!

This deck was our season closer but the weather ever since we completed this has been so nice, that it makes us wonder how many more we could have completed before winter ! The client on the other hand has had the weather to enjoy every last bit of the beautiful fall with her new deck. We have been going strong with beginning our renovation side though, and a new kitchen is in progress. @thewoodsource #lastdeckoftheseason #finishstrong #kitchenrenovation

Once again we play with the drone to capture some cool footage. We are definitely having fun with this. Another showcase for Upland Builds. This deck has a bladder system installed for the water to be directed into a gutter, so these clients can enjoy their space below. Roughly 80’ of cedar fence line, interlock pathway and garden beds (@fairmanrenovations ), stamped concrete pad, river rock, and some top soil are the other portions of this project. We’ll be back next summer to add some other designs into this. @thewoodsource for supplying great materials #cedarfence #deckwaterproofing #waterdrainage #funprojects #summerprojects

This was a really fun project to be involved with and once again, amazing clients! Also, this is our first attempt at video-graphing: A learning curve, but fun for sure! We’re a little late on making this post, and the clients have been enjoying this backyard of theirs all summer. From the designing of istudio and work from a few other trades, this job has been completed with attention and detail. #poolcabana #outdoorliving #outdoorkitchen

We want to take a moment to look back at a project completed earlier this summer, and give a shoutout to two great clients. They wanted a backyard pool along with a deck surrounding it, and having a smaller backyard, there was some compromising. Some grass, or no grass at all. After seeing this video you can see the choice that was made😀. Timbertech decking along with pressure treated framing and water proofing membrane on top of each joist will give this deck lots of life. Having a deck so close to water, we used a lot of membrane! The handrail is made from a company called Regal Ideas. It’s an aluminum product, with a nice black finish. We will be back in 2023 to construct a pool equipment shed for them. Shoutouts to both @thewoodsource for always supplying great material and @watchpaulburke for creating this video ! Thanks for watching ! #timbertechdecking #happyclients #smallbackyarddesign #backyardpools #cedarpergola #nograssneeded #floatingdeck #decklighting #backyardoasis

Our clients have been really taking advantage of their new dream backyard. This is the beautiful view from night, putting emphasis on the lighting. The fence line, pergola, stairs, and some of the deck border have lighting, making this backyard quite observable at night ✨ #backyardoasis🌴 #poolsatnight #litbackyard #pergolas #pergola #cedar #timbertech #timbertechdeck #regalideas #longlastingdeck

Let us all take some time, today and everyday, to sit with the pain and trauma caused upon the Indigenous children and their families from residential schools. We will continue to listen and educate ourselves on the history and heritage of the Indigenous communities, and continue to reflect on tangible and sincere actions to become allies and activists. Today, Upland Builds will be donating to the Indian Residential School Survivors Society. Some friends shared with us yesterday the heartfelt story of Joe Buffalo, survivor of the residential schools.

Cedar... 😍 We used cedar all around on this pergola integration through our clients pool deck. We love working with materials that are long lasting, and with a little care, this pergola will stand up to the test. @thewoodsource thanks for providing us with the material ! #cedarpergola #builtfromscratch

The bladder system is in. All it needs now is a downspout and it’ll be complete. Ready for some 🌧️! #notreallythough😂

Sealer on, and I must say, it really looks great. #stampedconcrete #concretepatio #sealedconcrete #sunbringsoutthebest

Here we have a smaller scaled fence project done with premium western red cedar. Our small jobs get the same special treatment with love and care as the big ones 😁 #westernredcedar #cedarfence #solarcaps #privacyfence

Some big progress on this job! We love it, and so do our clients. Timbertech - Sea Salt Gray is the product and colour of choice, and Regal aluminum handrail. The pergola (to come) will be made from western red cedar. There are a couple of things left to complete, like the pergola, the stair skirting, and extending the deck further to really close in their backyard. We are excited to show you the final product soon! #timbertechdeck #outdoorliving #pooldeck

All framed and ready to lay decking! This is our first job using joist protector, and we’re definitely sticking with it from now on. Takes some time, but we’re happy with the result and these clients will have a long lasting deck. • • • #gtape #pooldeck #entrepreneur #ottawa #thisheatiskillingme

Days over and we have the deck almost framed. #backyardprojects #happylongweekend #canadaday

Thanks @fairmanrenovations for completing this job for my clients. It was exactly what we were envisioning and it turned out great! We continue soon to build a 2nd story deck, stamped patio below, and cedar fence to close everything in. #interlock #backyardprojects #designturnedintoreality #happyclients😍

Do you have a vision for your backyard ? If yes, great - we will help your vision and give it some life. If no, that's what we are here for. We specialize in turning your living spaces into somewhere you want to spend most of your time, enjoying every moment. Maybe you want a large deck and pergola. Or your'e thinking about planning a project for your backyard that includes a deck, but also interlock, a cabana with an outdoor kitchen, and planting trees. From the project planning and designing phase, to the construction, we will be there with you throughout the process to make sure this isn't a stressful decision, but an enjoyable one. We only have a couple openings left for this summer, but are pre-booking into the summer of 2023. There are also still openings left for any interior renovations or custom work to be done throughout the winter months of 2022, and are pre-booking into the winter months of 2023 as well. Our website has been rebuilt, and is up and running! Thanks for your time folks.

Getting a head start for our clients by getting these helical piles installed a few weeks before their pool is in. The landing and stairs that will be resting on these piles will also be coming down on top of a large floating deck around their pool. Thanks to Techno Metal Post and Alain running the east end of town! We would shout at them through instagram but they don’t have an account set up. #technopost #helicalpiles #pooldecks #composite

From your average builders deck to a modernized set of steps. Handrail to come soon! There are many ways to build with composite material. This style of finishing is what clients have been showing interest in. We are growing and learning every day, while keeping our products held to a standard our clients and us are excited about. It will now match the rest of their backyard which was finished also with @timbertech Tigerwood products. #neighboursofwestbarrhavenandcedarhill #timbertechdeck #compositestairs #backdoordeck #modernizing #keepingupwithdesign

Before and after the instal of this natural looking siding. It really freshens up an area! There is a robins nest in the ceiling, and figured out it can’t be moved until the eggs are hatched and they are gone. It’s really amazing to see, however it means we can’t finish the ceiling yet😆 On to other tasks ! #neighboursofwestbarrhavenandcedarhill #pinesiding #porchlife #porchremodel

Almost a year of Upland Builds💫 We are so grateful to be featured in Neighbours of West Barrhaven & Cedarhill!

The walls are finished with tongue and groove and we will be onto the ceiling next 🤟🏼 #tongueandgroove #outdoorstructure #poolcabana #shadedtructure

An update on the pool cabana project. I’ve taken a little time to heal an injury so I’ve been away, but doing much better now! Today all the posts were framed and sheeted with OSB, along with building wrap on the areas we will start the tongue and groove pine next. Hope you’re enjoying the warm weather we’re having today ☀️

Rainy day material unloads ! There is a goldmine now at an undisclosed location and we are now waiting for the install date. Looking forward to getting this one underway! Thanks @thewoodsource ! #composite #seasaltgray #timbertech #rainyweather

This job is back underway! We threw a tarp over the entire structure for the winter to keep the wood in good condition, and putting the ice and water shield will take over until we can get our roofers in. Nailing the one dimensional 2x4 to the steel is just one way to add strength to the post as we will build off of it. We’ll keep this job posted along the way as best we can! #poolstructure #springishere🌸 #sunnyworkdays🌞 #ramset #cabana #compositedecking #tigerwood #timbertechdeck

Carpeted set of stairs that really needed some spunk! Having the carpet gone and replaced with solid maple treads and risers, these stairs now look extra fresh and new. To finish them off nicely, two coats of a spar urethane were applied before install. These steps now have another long life ahead of them, even with the presence of four legged friends in the home 🐾 #staircase #stairs #stairdesign #generalcontractors #generalcontracting #custommade #custombuilt #custombuilder #ottawacarpentry #ottawacarpenter #ottawarenovations #ottawarenovation #ottawareno #entrepreneurlife

We will continue to learn, grow, and be patient to make sure we do things right. This is something I am very excited to venture into and share with YOU! What about you?

Re: Kitchen demolition/renovation🚧👩‍🍳 • We believe that this is what a tidy demolition looks like! We are working on a complete kitchen renovation in a bright and inviting space☀️🌱 Currently working “back stage”, aka on electrical and plumbing with amazing people. Cabinetry is next! A full kitchen renovation is most likely the indoor remodelling that is the hardest on clients…it is a vital space for our basic needs, and often a space where we come together over sacred rituals. We want to thank these patient and welcoming clients for adapting and managing while we work hard at completing this project in due time for them! ✨🙏 #kitchenrenovation #kitchenremodel #kitchenremodeling #generalcontractors #generalcontracting #ottawareno #ottawarenovations #ottawarenovation #interiorrenovation #interiorremodel #interiorremodeling

Water: The element of emotional wisdom, flow and compassion🌊 . . . Here are a couple different structures we built to complement the pools of water. They will be completed when fully covered with tiles. Look at the third photo: you’ll see a waterfall mechanisms in place (!!!). We just need the plumber to hook it up then we can permanently place it and tile around. How visually and auditory peaceful will this be?! #summerbackyard #backyardprojects #ottawarenos #ottawarenovation #ottawarenovationcompany #ottawarenovationspecialists

Soaking in hot water…. That autumnal shift that makes us trade in that summery expansion for tuning inward. Warm/hot water has that “homecoming” capacity, that helps us return to ourselves. Are you feeling that shift?✨🌾 Here’s a little throwback to this summer project that our clients will most definitely enjoy at this time! #patioseason #backyarddesign #backyardproject #autumnshift #healingwater #ottawarenovation #ottawarenos #carpentery

Client review, as we delve into the weekend. Thank you Bob for the feedback and kind words! Have a great weekend, folks! #clientreview #carpentrywork #ottawarenovation #ottawarenos #clientrelationships #renoreferrals

We want to take today and everyday to mourn, reflect, listen and educate ourselves about the history of the Indian residential school and the First Nations. Today, we will be making a donation to @a7g_official, an Indigenous owned and youth led, non profit organization in the region. We also invite you to join us in reading the National Inquiry’s Final Report into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls. https://www.mmiwg-ffada.ca/final-report/ #truth #truthandreconciliation #everychildmatters #everychildmatters🧡 #orangeshirtday

Cold days are ahead. Pack up your medicines And your growth. Keep them stored On the same shelves. For those nights When you feel Old scars reopening And old feelings resurfacing. Place medicine into The depths of your wounds And whisper Prayers to yourself, I am beautiful… - thunkán čík’ala Prestin Mercredi-Fleming It’s officially fall and we get to soak in our last patio moments🍂 September 30th 2021 is also the first National day for Truth and Reconciliation🧡 Thank you @prestomanifest0 for this poem✨ #truthandreconciliationday #nationaltruthandreconciliationday #everychildmatters

The hot tub patio is complete✨✨✨ This modern design makes it quite smooth and easy on the eyes. All joints have been left with small gaps to create beautiful shadow lines. We are very pleased with the outcome, and so are our clients! 😍 #ottawarenovation #ottawarenos #decksofinstagram #homerenovations #homedesigns #homereno #homerenovationideas #backyarddesign #backyardpool #backyardprojects #backyardproject

Onto an indoor renovation project! We are doing a small kitchen reno in a townhouse downtown that first consisted of removing the mid separating wall- Slide through photos to see the evolution. Next is the removal of the existing tile to replace with new modern design tile! 👌🏼 Keep you posted, as always! #ottawareno #ottawarenovation #renovationmaison #homerenovations #homerenovationideas #homerenovationproject #homerenovating #homedesign

THIS IS IT😍! The final product of the deck we posted about last week! The previous deck was completely torn down to be replaced with a newly designed, pressure treated wood deck. May we focus your attention to the detail and the custom miniature pergola design?! We surely are pleased with the outcome. Clients can now soak in the crisp autumn vibes in their backyard🌾🍂 FYI: Project was completed in 3 days. We may be able to fit into our schedule your outdoor project of similar magnitude before the *cold* season hits us❄️… Yes, we had to use the Canadian dirty word. Get in touch and we will see how we can be of service☺️ Have a great week, folks! #decksofinstagram #ottawadeck #ottawareno #ottawarenovation #carpentrywork #carpentrylife

Hi folks! We hope you had a lovely long weekend.🍃 This sweet deck/nook in a beautiful centennial home is in need of a complete makeover. Water has created damage over a long period of time and once demolished, we noticed that the structure was deteriorating. We can’t wait to show you photos of the finished results, as this one is for dear friends! 🌻 #ottawareno #ottawarenovation #carpentrywork #carpentrylife #decksofinstagram #patiorenovation

8th update: Would you look at this! 😍 At this point, the posts are built out and are ready for the cement board & stucco. The roof rafters were all cut on a 4% slope and installed along with sheeting & tar paper (temporary until torch on membrane is installed). Also, the fireplace has been framed in- We are now ready to put cement board on it and install tile! There are some steel members needing to be installed in some parts of the fireplace, but this will wait a little until the fireplace is installed, as it cannot be in direct contact with combustible material. What do you think so far?!

Installation of the composite deck! #decksofinstagram #deck #deckdesign #pooldeck #ottawarenovations #ottawarenovation

7th update on the roof/patio deck: Lots of progress in August! At this point, the beams have been secured to the bracket, the back wall has been installed, and so has the beautiful composite deck! As you can see, there is a bump in one corner of the deck; This is where the outdoor gas fireplace will be!🔥 To make it happen, a wall will be framed next. The rest of the work is already in the making, so we will make sure to update you soon. Questions? Intrigued? Interested? We would be happy to get in touch with you! #deck #deckdesign #pooldeck #pooldecks #decksofinstagram #ottawacarpentry #ottawarenovations #ottawarenovation #carpentrylife #carpentrylife

Client review: An opportunity to brag, you might think? We wondered about it too! We are proud of our work and ethics, and are grateful clients can vouch for it. We also know feedbacks/reviews from previous or actual clients are the ultimate piece of insight that will make all of us decide to do business with a company or not, especially when it comes to your home. So, here we are☺️ #clientreview #clientreviews #ottawacarpentry #ottawarenovations #ottawarenovation #ottawareno #carpentrywork #carpentrylife

It’s been a quiet week for Upland Builds on social media. Took the time to reconnect with more family in the beautiful Acadian Peninsula and celebrate the rich and resilient culture that is Acadie💙⭐️🤍❤️What a nice opportunity to regroup, focus, and bring renewed energy and ideas to Ottawa! 💥 #timeoffwork #focus #carpentrylife #ottawacarpentry #constructionlife #ottawarenos

This one, we are very excited about…We got to work in a Historical home in beautiful New Edinburgh! For this one day repair, we sister new joists with glue and structural screws to very old, original wood dating to when the home was built. Slide through to see the evolution. New Edinburg is a neighbourhood we visit on a weekly basis for it’s beautiful dog park, Stanley Park. We happen to meet the client after one of our strolls and it felt like a “full circle” moment. For that, we are so grateful.🙏 If you happen to be in the neighbourhood, you must stop at @onunionstreet, the sweetest little café. Marie-Christine and her team are 👌🏼(and so is her golden retriever puppy!). #newedinburghottawa #ottawacarpentry #ottawarenovations #renovationmaison #homerenovations

Us again. Update 6th continued: As you can see in those video updates, the concrete was poured along the entire perimeter of the pool, for beautiful ceramic tiles to be installed soon. We used a large pump truck for the concrete to be poured at a long distance away. This deck & roof will be something magnificent. Of course we will keep you in the loop as we keep moving this projet along! Have a great weekend, folks! #concrete #pouringconcrete #decks #deckrenovation #backyardrenovation #carpenter #carpentery #ottawacarpentry

A 6th update? Yup. Count on us to follow through! Here you can see David getting the forms in place for the concrete to be poured. And then poured was the concrete 😉. See next post for update 6th continued! #pouringconcrete #concrete #ottawacarpentry #ottawarenovations #carpentrywork #carpentrylife

5th update: Installation of our beams! The beams sit in a bracket that gets welded to the top of the steel posts.   Now that the beams are in, we can put them in place: They will be flush to the deck below and ready for the roof rafters on top. Before that, the concrete around the perimeter of the pool had to be poured, but we thought we would pace ourselves and not over flood your feed with content! So, pictures and videos to come! We hope you are enjoying those updates as transparency for us is part of being an ethical company 😊 #deck #deckdesign #decks #ottawarenos #ottawarenovations #ottawarenovation #ottawacarpentry #carpenter #carpenters #carpentrylife

We are hoping your are soaking in all the summer vibes with the August long weekend ahead of us!🌺 4th update from the deck & roof patio: This week’s progress has been mainly focused on nailing the 2x6 plates on top of the metal beams (installed by @dreamweaverwelding) to create a nailing surface for the joists. You can now see the deck framed out. Blocking between the joists to be added! Curious about the work? Ambivalent about jumping into your next home project? We would be pleased to chat with you and help you get a sense of how your vision could be materialized! #backyardproject #backyardprojects #carpentry #carpentryskills #carpentrylife #deck #deckdesign #backyardpatio #ottawarenovations

Happy Monday to all! ✨ 3rd update from the deck and roof patio: The welding of our beams and posts has been completed by Joe Armstrong from @dreamweaverwelding . Thank you Joe for your skills and enthusiasm! We are now ready to build the deck framing on top. We are very happy with how well this project is moving along for the clients to enjoy their updated oasis! #ottawawelding #welding #deck #ottawadecks #carpentry #carpentryskills #reno #renovations

Update from the composite deck and roof project: We thought we’d share with you a time lapse so you could see the project in the making! You can see David filling in the excavation site with rocks now that the concrete has been poured. Now, we are ready to install the beams and posts. If you are curious and have questions about this project, don’t hesitate to reach out- We will be happy to share some insight! #decks #roof #ottawadecks #ottawadeckcompany #ottawareno #backyard #backyarddesign #backyardproject

Another beautiful deck in the making : We are pouring concrete into these piles, and adding a metal plate that is set into the top of them to accommodate for steel beams which will be welded on top. This structure is going to hold a large composite deck and roof on top of it. Updates to be posted as we keep working at it. We are so grateful for the support and trust, folks. Upland Builds has had a good start because you 🙏 #decksofinstagram #ottawadecks #ottawabackyards #backyardproject #backyardprojects #ottawacarpentry #ottawareno

Good morning folks! We are pretty excited about this one…This beautiful backyard will be enhanced by what will be a composite hot tub patio. It’s on its way for decking as we make this post. Designed by the talented Studio I. Photos of the complete projet to follow! Beautiful, right?!☺️ #carpentry #hottub #hottubs #carpentryskills #carpentryottawa #ottawacarpenter #carpentrywork #carpentrylife #ottawadecks #reno #ottawareno
