Most contractors in Red Deer only ever work above this line. We work above it and below it — the house, and the ground it stands on.

Twenty-one years of finished rooms.

Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, siding, decks, fireplaces — and commercial fit-outs when a store needs to open on a date. Maroun builds. Anna runs the books. The phone number has not changed since 2005.

More hail falls between Calgary and Red Deer than anywhere in Canada.

When it lands, restoration goes to whoever answers the phone. We repair what the weather takes — roofs, siding, windows, water damage — and we work with your insurer while we do it.

Section A–A · the crossing

Two trades that never meet.

Alberta gates septic work behind a government Certificate of Competency. So the county's contractors have sorted themselves into two piles — and almost nobody stands in both.

0Other Red Deer renovation contractors that mention the ground

The people who build your kitchen do not touch the ground. We read the site of every renovation contractor that comes up when a Red Deer homeowner searches. Not one of them says septic, excavation, or drainage.

The part of your property you can't see.

On an acreage there is no city crew. The field, the tank, the water line and the footings are yours — and when one of them fails, it is not an inconvenience. It is a house you cannot live in, and cannot sell.

Septic systems

New systems for new builds and rural properties, and replacements for fields at the end of their working life. We design to the site — the soil, the water table, the setbacks. In Alberta a private sewage system can only be permitted and installed under the province's Certificate of Competency, so it goes in on a permit and it gets inspected. We handle the whole property: the design, the ground, and the house on top of it.

Excavation & footings

Basements, garage pads, deck footings, driveways, drainage that moves water away from the house instead of into it. The same crew that pours the footing frames the deck that sits on it.

Water & sewer

Service lines, connections, and the unglamorous repairs that keep an acreage running. Compliant with Alberta's Safety Codes, inspected, and signed off.

Septic inspection shows the entire system has maybe a year or 2 max before needing replacing. Is it realistic to ask for a price reduction? $40,000 added to the mortgage puts us out of our comfort range. A buyer, mid-purchase, on a homeowners' forum · June 2026

Alberta does not require a septic inspection when a rural property sells. So it arrives as a condition on an accepted offer — with a clock on it, on a house the buyer has already fallen in love with.

That person needs a septic system this month and a kitchen next spring. Today they hire two companies, sequence two crews, and eat the gap in between.

They could hire one.

There are two of us.

Maroun Costantine builds. Anna Costantine runs the office. They have been renovating and improving homes together since January 2005, out of two shop bays on Landry Avenue. When you call, one of them picks up — and if you leave a message, you hear back the same day or the next.

Cut a section through Red Deer County.

In Alberta you cannot pull a permit to install a private sewage system without a Certificate of Competency issued by the province. Twenty-nine people hold one at a Red Deer or Red Deer County address. Here is every one of them, by trade.
