About Us

True North General Contracting is a Northern Ontario construction company built on Quality, Honesty, and Integrity. We take pride in creating high-standard residential and light-commercial projects — from renovations and additions to decks, kitchens, and new builds — while maintaining a positive and professional environment for our team.

One of our core beliefs is that True North should be a great place to work. We value stability and strive to provide continuous, year-round employment without winter layoffs, so our team can count on steady work and reliable income throughout the year.

Communicate clearly with project managers, clients, and subcontractors.
Ensure that tools, materials, and equipment are available as needed.
Maintain detailed records of project progress and any changes in scope.

Strong knowledge of construction methods, building codes, and safety standards.
Excellent leadership, organization, and communication skills.
Reliable, self-motivated, and detail-oriented.

Commitment to True North’s values of Quality, Honesty, and Integrity.
