The team behind your renovation
We don't just build. We plan, communicate, and deliver — every single time.

Daniel Gauthier spent 30 years in the renovation industry — and watched project after project fail. Not because of bad tradespeople or cheap materials. Because nobody made a plan.
Contractors gave vague timelines. Budgets were guesses. Homeowners had no idea what was happening in their own homes. And when they called to ask, nobody picked up.
He built Reno Ottawa-Gatineau to fix that. Not just to deliver renovations — to fix the renovation experience. One where every detail is planned before construction starts, one person owns the project from start to finish, and the homeowner never has to chase an update.
His motto — borrowed from 30 years of solving problems on job sites — is simple: "There are always solutions."
Over three decades, Daniel has managed projects alongside architects like Douglas Cardinal and Anthony Pearson, led complex structural remediations, heritage restorations, and multi-room transformations across Ottawa and Gatineau. That experience is the foundation ROG is built on.
Meet the Team
Four people. Clear roles. You always know who's responsible.
Daniel Gauthier
General Manager
30 years
Daniel has managed residential construction and renovation projects across Ottawa-Gatineau since the mid-2000s. His background spans engineering, plumbing, electrical systems, and design-build — giving him a rare ability to see the full picture of every project. He personally oversees every ROG renovation from consultation to final walkthrough.
Kyle Pallen
Construction Manager
15 years
A third-generation tradesman, Kyle manages on-site execution — coordinating trades, ensuring quality standards, and keeping the build on schedule. He brings 15 years of hands-on construction experience to every project.
Taylor Goldthorp
Project Coordinator
10 years
Taylor keeps every project moving — managing schedules, material orders, client communication, and documentation. She's the reason you always know what's happening next on your renovation.
Stephane Tully
Site Manager
25 years
With 25 years in the industry, Stephane oversees day-to-day site operations — supervising crews, maintaining safety standards, and ensuring every detail meets ROG's quality bar. His focus on care and precision is what keeps projects running cleanly.
How we're different
Most renovation projects don't fail because of workmanship — they fail due to poor planning, communication, and coordination. We bring a structured, transparent approach to every project.
Everything is planned before construction starts.
Scope, materials, timeline, budget — documented and approved. We don't start building until the plan is locked.
One person owns your project.
Your project manager is your single point of contact. One phone number. One person who knows every detail.
We take on fewer projects — on purpose.
We cap active projects so your renovation gets full attention. That's how timelines hold.
We document everything.
Your scope, your quote, your timeline — it's all in writing. No vague allowances. No assumptions. No surprises.
Licensed in Ontario and Quebec.
We serve both sides of the river. RBQ licensed (5861-8513-01), fully insured, and accountable.
What we stand for
Transparency
You see the full scope, the real numbers, and the actual timeline before we start. No hidden fees. No vague ranges. No surprises after demo day.
Integrity
We do what we said we'd do. If something changes, you hear it from us first — with options, not excuses.
Mindfulness
We're in your home. We treat it with more care than our own. Clean sites, respect for your space, and awareness that your life doesn't stop during a renovation.
Openness
Ask anything. We explain our process because we have nothing to hide. The more you understand, the more confident you'll be.
Goodwill
We build relationships, not just structures. Every client is a future reference — and that's how we want it.
"I wholeheartedly recommend Reno-Ottawa and Daniel Gauthier for their exceptional service in construction. Their professionalism, integrity, and efficiency in project execution are unparalleled. Reno-Ottawa's transparent handling of change orders reflects their client-first philosophy."
