Frequently Asked Questions

1. What types of projects does Cisar Construction take on?

Cisar Construction focuses on large-scale renovation projects that involve major updates and full-space transformations. This includes full basement developments, full kitchen and bathroom remodels, whole-home flooring replacements, structural or layout changes, custom carpentry features. Our team is best suited for comprehensive projects that significantly elevate the function, value, and overall design of your home.

2. How long does a typical renovation take?

Timelines depend on the size and scope of the project, but most renovations fall between a few days and several weeks. Small jobs - like trim refreshes, drywall repairs, or flooring in one room - can be completed quickly. Larger projects like basements or full-home updates take more time because we’re making sure everything is done safely, correctly, and up to code. After your consultation, we’ll give you a clear schedule so you always know what’s happening next.

3. Do you offer free quotes?

Yes! We offer no-obligation, free estimates. You can message us through Instagram or Facebook, or submit your request through our website. We’ll come take a look, talk through your vision, and give you a detailed quote so you can make an informed decision.

4. Are you licensed and insured in Calgary?

Absolutely. We are fully licensed, insured, and compliant with Alberta building codes and safety standards. Your home is protected, and every project is handled with professionalism and care.

5. Do you help with design ideas or material choices?

Yes - we know that choosing flooring, paint colours, cabinets, and finishes can feel overwhelming. We offer guidance on what will look best, last longest, and fit your budget. If you already have a designer, we love partnering with other local professionals to bring your vision to life.

6. How does payment work?

Every project begins with a signed agreement outlining the scope, timeline, and cost. Larger projects require a deposit, with remaining payments broken into clear stages based on progress. We’re upfront and transparent - no surprise charges, ever.

7. What should I expect during a renovation?

Renovations can be messy, and we respect that your home is your sanctuary. We lay floor protection, seal off rooms with plastic, manage dust, clean up daily, and communicate every step of the way. Our goal: minimal disruption, maximum transformation.

8. What makes Cisar Construction different from other contractors?

We’re a small, family-run company that takes pride in craftsmanship. No shortcuts, no rushed work, no “good enough.” You get personal communication, quality materials, honest pricing, and results that actually last. We treat your home like our own.

9. How far in advance should I book a project?

Our schedule fills up quickly - especially for larger renovations or peak seasons. For most projects, we recommend reaching out at least 2 - 3 months in advance. But if you have a tight deadline, don’t hesitate to ask; we do our best to accommodate.
