In Edmonton you have lots of choices for a General Contractor. Which is great for you, the homeowner.
It is really important to feel comfortable with the General Contractor you choose for your residential renovation since they will be in your personal space for the duration of the renovation and the one tasked with bringing your renovation dream to life.
As a locally owned and operated company we value each and every customer that invites us into their home. When Ridgeline Improvements was started in 2011, it was the goal to provide renovations that meet and exceed clients’ expectations.
We believe that every homeowner deserves exceptional quality, reliable service, and affordable prices when renovating or remodelling their home. In order to provide the experience we feel our clients deserve, we have surrounded ourselves with a team of people who are inline with our beliefs.
That crew has grown over the years. In addition to our Owner/Project Manager/Sales Rep, we currently employ Lead Carpenters, an Apprentice, a General Labourer and an Office Manager. As part of building trust we thought you might be interested in some fun facts about our crew.

At Ridgeline Improvements, we start every project by getting to know you and the vision for your home. We find out what your dream outcome is, define your budget and work back to establish the best plan for your project.
After contacting Ridgeline Improvements about the dreams you have for your home, one of our team members will be in touch with you to discuss your renovation. When we contact you, we will ask specific questions about your project scope, budget location, motivations, and goals for the renovation.
After we connect with you, we will review your project and your goals with our sales and design team. We’ll explore the feasibility of the proposed work, and whether Ridgeline Improvements is a good fit for your project. Based on specifications, we can provide rough timelines, design costs and construction cost range. If these align with what you’re thinking, we’ll set up a more in-depth consultation.
At Ridgeline Improvements, we would like to get to know you and your space a little better. We will discuss why our pre-construction planning services (which will take anywhere from 20-200 hours) are integral to the success of your project and we will answer all of your questions. Our comprehensive design services will guide you from concept to completion. We will take into account zoning and lot requirements, structural challenges, design ideas, functionality, lifestyle considerations and budget in order to determine the cost for pre-construction services.
We will draft a pre-construction agreement that outlines the project goals, estimated project cost or rough order of magnitude, and timeline. We will also outline deliverables, such as architectural drawings, feasibility studies, engineering, identification of designated substances (such as asbestos), construction consulting, interior design services, and a list of required selections. Lastly, we will provide you with an outline of the next steps in the process. Pre-construction services generally range from $5000-$15,000 plus GST.
Once the pre-construction agreement is in place, we will begin to work with our trade partners and suppliers, schedule site reviews, ensure design feasibility and pricing. This comprehensive process takes anywhere from 20-200 hours to ensure that we have a detailed scope of work that aligns with both your architectural drawings and plan specifications. We’ll set a target start date and related deadlines to stay on track.
Once the planning process is completed, we will introduce you to our construction team and arrange a kick off meeting. We will answer any questions you may have about the construction process. As part of our kick off, we will set you up with JobTread, our construction management software. In addition to daily updates from our team, JobTread allows you to review all aspects of your project when it’s most convenient for you. Typically we allow for a minimum 6 to 12 weeks from the day a contract is signed to the day we begin construction to allow us to coordinate schedules and to order materials with longer lead times such as windows, doors and cabinetry.
