Customer Reviews

Michael Wadeson

We recently hired James Latham (owner of Capital City Construction) to do a full renovation of our kitchen, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! His work is top-notch—everything was completed with great attention to detail and craftsmanship. He stayed on budget, which we really appreciated, and the tradespeople he brought in—especially the plumber and electricians—were excellent as well. Throughout the project, he communicated clearly and consistently, keeping us informed every step of the way. He was also incredibly kind and flexible, especially when our schedule needed to change. On top of all that, he was so kind and patient with our dogs, which meant a lot to us. It made the whole process smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering a home renovation—you’ll be in great hands!

James Latham and Capital City Construction came highly recommended to us from several friends. After successfully completing an extensive full-house renovation for my parents, we had no hesitation in trusting them to take on our garage renovation. From start to finish, James has been a pleasure to work with. He is communicative, friendly and positive, and does quality work. James is solution-oriented and trustworthy. The trades he has hired are also top notch. Capital City Construction is the full package and we will no doubt be hiring them again for further renovations. Thank you, James!

Alex Lemon

We had a fantastic experience with Capital City Construction. We needed an old, outdated shower stall and partial wall removed and replaced with a new, space-saving shower stall. James understood exactly what we were trying to do and recommended an excellent product that fit our budget. He completed the project on time and came in exactly on budget. James has a keen eye for detail and cleans meticulously as he works. Each day he left the space spotless. He went "above and beyond" by completing additional drywall and painting work to help us out and also generously offered to take an old wood stove to recycling for us. We will definitely be contacting Capital City Construction again for any of our interior or exterior home renovation needs. Thanks again James!

Rob Weller

After being left hanging by another local contractor, we turned to Capital City Construction to bail us out on our kitchen renovations. James’ crew did a complete kitchen reno and opened up a wall between the kitchen and dining area. James and his crew did a great job. Project was on-time & on-budget. Can’t ask for anything more from a trustworthy company.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a kitchen renovation proceed?

Kitchen projects start with an on-site visit and estimate, then move through design selections, permitting and scheduling, construction, cleanup and a final walkthrough.

How long can a kitchen renovation take?

Most kitchen remodels take several weeks to a few months from demolition to completion; complexity, cabinetry lead times and permit timelines affect the schedule.

Are permits needed for a legal basement suite?

A legal suite addition or conversion requires permits and inspections, and Capital City Construction handles the permitting process.

Does Capital City Construction build detached garden suites?

No. The company focuses on renovations and conversions of existing homes, not new-construction detached dwellings.

Does Capital City Construction consider smaller exterior projects?

It considers smaller projects, particularly for repeat clients or when the work addresses safety or helps prevent further damage.
