General contractor in Montreal

Turnkey renovations, carried out with care by local experts.
High-end renovation and residential construction in Montreal

In Montreal, renovation projects require a detailed understanding of the century-old buildings of Plateau-Mont-Royal, the multiplexes of Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie, the single-family homes of Ahuntsic-Cartierville and the modern condos of downtown. Cartago Construction, based in Longueuil and active throughout the Greater Montreal area, supports property owners, investors and managers with a reliable, compliant approach rooted in the realities of the Montreal market.

Certified RBQ, fully insured and managed by Yassine Troudi, a construction specialist in Quebec for over 10 years, the company carries out sustainable, aesthetic renovations adapted to local standards - whether it's updating a kitchen in a century-old building, transforming a basement into a compliant rental unit, or renovating a facade in a heritage district.
