ABOUT US

WHY GREAT OWL?

Alberta is one of the provinces in Canada and was named after Princess Louise Caroline Alberta - Her Royal Highness The Princess Louise, Duchess of Argyll.
Louise Caroline Alberta (18 March 1848-3 December 1893) was a member of the British Royal Family and Canadian Vice Regal Consort, the sixth child and fourth daughter of Queen Victoria.
In 1977 the children of the province Alberta were asked by the provincial government to select a bird to represent the province.
As the result of a province-wide vote, they selected the Great Horned Owl as Alberta's Provincial Bird on May 3, 1977.
The Great Horned Owl is a year-round resident found throughout the province. This bird symbolizes our concern for the future of wildlife.
As our Provincial Bird, the Great Horned Owl should remind all Albertans to manage wildlife wisely.
Great Owl Renovations Inc.
was named after the Great Horned Owl.

THE GREAT OWL DIFFERENCE

or what makes us special?
Your concerns are validated, and not ignored or brushed off
We do not ask you what you like; we ask you what you do not like about the renovation process and we will change it!
We remember that renovation is a huge disruption to your live and probably your biggest investment.
We have empathy and patience to explain the progress of the renovation project .
We care about you and listen to all your comments and suggestions during your renovation project and we will take the experience as a lesson that we will apply to our business.
We actually appreciate hearing your concerns because they give us a clear reference point of where we can do better.
While others may offer the minimum required, we go beyond that point .
At Great Owl we will help you to weed out the less effective renovation ideas while focusing on the ones that really pay off to bring up the value of your investment.
The point is that proper renovation pays big dividends.
You will see the results immediately, generally within days after finishing your home improvement project: kitchen or bathroom, basement or home office, new storage space or updated plumbing and electrical work, new cozy fireplace or home theater system or great addition room.
Of course the renovation process take time to see the result and from the first sight, it is very difficult for you to watch money flow out of the door, but patience is the key.
We will help to ensure that you are spending your money wisely.
