Average market prices in Ottawa, updated for 2026. Tax not included. Actual prices vary based on the specifics of the job.
Ottawa's market splits between a large, steady public-sector and tech workforce driving renovation demand in mature neighbourhoods (Glebe, Westboro, Alta Vista) and rapid new-build growth in suburbs like Barrhaven and Kanata. Winters are long and cold, so furnace, insulation, and roofing work sees strong seasonal demand every fall. Bilingual customer service is a real advantage given the large Francophone population across the river in Gatineau.
