Novacon Custom Home Builders & Additions - Scarborough, Ontario

We've had the pleasure of collaborating with Novacon as their architectural designers since 2024, and the experience has been consistently excellent. Their deep knowledge of construction, budgeting, and timelines brings a high level of clarity and efficiency to every project we work on together. Communication is always professional and responsive, and the entire team is friendly and easy to work with. Having their in-house interior designer involved early in the design concept phase has also helped produce more polished and cohesive outcomes for our shared projects. A truly dependable and skilled builder!

We recently embarked on an extensive downtown Toronto condo reno and were very apprehensive at first. Lucky for us we picked Novacon and could not be happier with the results. The Novacon team exceeded our expectations in terms of professionalism and workmanship. Their team of trades are incredibly punctual and the entire work was well coordinated. Kudos to Eric, Melika, and Yvon for making our reno journey very successful. Melika was our project manager/coordinator who actively listened to every concern we had and addressed every single one of them with impeccable professionalism and always in a timely manner. Novacon not only delivered but also exceeded all of our expectations.

Novacon’s team was so pleasurable to work with. Melika, their designer, was full of beautiful ideas but also took into account our own styles and vision, bringing it all to life! Their project manager, Yvon, was so kind, patient, and knowledgeable - full of great workarounds and solutions. Their crew was always of quality, and we are extremely happy with the beauty of our home!

Pavel and his team are great. The results are amazing and it was a pleasure working with everyone.
What’s also outstanding is Novacon’s commitment to quality and customer service. They contacted my neighbours at the beginning of the project to introduce themselves, and make sure the neighbours had a contact in case there were any issues. This meant a lot to me as well as them.
Friends who have seen the house before and after have requested Novacon’s contact info for their own future projects and I provided it without hesitation. Pavel stands behind his work and I would recommend Novacon to anyone.

We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Novacon for our house renovation and addition. Everyone at Novacon is not only incredibly skilled at what they do, but they're also some of the kindest, most genuine people we've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Pavel, in particular, went above and beyond to ensure that we were getting the best value for our budget and that we ended up with a house to suit our family's needs. And every member of the team, from Henry and Yvon to Melika, Linda, Margie, and Brandon, as well as the many tradespeople involved in our project, was an absolute joy to work with. They were always available to answer our questions, provide updates on the progress of the renovation, and offer creative solutions when things didn't quite go according to plan.

But what really sets Novacon apart is the level of care and attention they put into every project. They treat each home with genuine respect, and it shows in the quality of their workmanship. They take the time to get to know their clients and truly understand their vision for their home, and they work tirelessly to bring that vision to life.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful team of contractors, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and talented group of professionals to work with. Frankly, Novacon was one of the higher quotes we received for our project, but everything was so clearly explained and thoughtout that we felt most comfortable going with them. When it comes to something as important as your home, you really do get what you pay for. And with Novacon, you get so much more than just a renovation - you get a team of passionate, dedicated individuals who truly care about making your house feel like a home.

Our project was to demolish existing bungalow and build a new 2 storey home. I met few contractors and was unable to decide and finally reached Homestars website. After short listing of highly rated contractors, went through profile of each contractor and decided to go with Novacon based on positive review about them being reliable, honest and excellent work. I want to thank God that I choose Novacon. It is very rare to find a contractor who is professional, fair, honest, upfront, knowledgeable and cares about the client budget and money,

From the first time we met Pavel, we felt at ease with him due to his knowledge, honesty and professionalism. He explained everything from the beginning and all the way through the project perfectly.

The Novacon team Pavel and William were very professional, honest, reliable, knowledgeable and attention to detail. They provided detailed schedule, set up weekly meetings to discuss progress, maintained communication as needed. Any time we encountered unforeseen issues Pavel notified us right away, explained the issue and presented us with options. If we asked for recommendations, Pavel would tell us his opinion but at no time did we feel pressured to do work we weren't comfortable with or to expand the scope of the job.

The quality of work is outstanding, maintaining the highest level of workmanship at all times of project is commendable.

We are very happy with the quality of build of our new home and would thank Pavel and his team for that and would highly recommend Novacon without hesitation to anyone considering work on their home.

Just wanted to share our gratitude to the Novacon team for the exemplary work completed on our recent 2nd storey renovation. As individuals and more broadly as a Novacon team they have been outstanding in terms of communication (prompt replies, positive and supportive language, availability), quality of work completed, flexibility, patience with us and understanding of our changes, and overall willingness to ensure this project resulted in what we desired from it.

Pavel was fantastic throughout the entire process - from initial meetings, through the development of scope and design, flexibility when circumstances caused a change in budget and then throughout the build. He is knowledgable, transparent in his dealings, customer focused and operates at all time with integrity.

Yvon and Melika as our face to face contacts were fantastic representatives of Novacon. Yvon as site manager genuinely demonstrates an intent to ensure that us as clients are fully satisfied with work completed. He is skillful, resourceful and eternally optimistic. Melika has a unique ability to respond positively in all situations whilst still keeping the project on task. Her communication and explanations were fantastic and she is always willing to further clarify. Together they are a great team.

We enthusiastically recommend Novacon given their outstanding work and also your adherence to the budget agreed upon. An outstanding experience.

I would recommend Novacon for any large scale home renovation without reservation. We cannot thank them enough! We used them for a near-total interior gut, update, extension with foundation for a hundred year-old Arts and Crafts home in the Beaches. I would do a similar project with them again in a heartbeat.

1. Quality: The work is second-to-none. Every detail is important and they walkthrough everything with you at every stage. They fix anything you are not happy with. Being in the home now 6 months after they finished, there are no surprises. They handled all permits, finances, planning expertly. We have the most beautiful home in the neighbourhood!

2. Subtrades/Team: Novacon seems to only work with the top tradespeople. They have connections to everything in the GTA and when we needed old glass work, or furnace work, new stairs, new eaves - every single one did a great job. They have backups/contingencies for everything - which is key on a big project.

3. Price: It is so hard to know before you start! Novacon was similar to other companies we had quote but by far they have the most transparent pricing at every stage: quote, planning and throughout. Pavel gives you a frame work showing exactly where the money goes. Any surprise discoveries were priced with different options/costs to solve, because there are always one or two surprises! Change orders were priced very fairly. As always, the more specific you are about materials, selections, finishing ahead of pricing, the more precise numbers they can give you. Having gone through this massive project, I can tell you I really trust Pavel's pricing.

4. Project Management: The day they came to take the keys and start demo Novacon showed up in 3 Novacon trucks, with a team of people in matching shirts and hats, with the owner, Pavel, showing up early, introducing us to the rest of the team and really reassuring us. They use a software program that gives you the schedule, ability to review and approve selections, communicate with them, copies of all plans and pictures. They accommodated our busy schedule for on-site meetings and did an amazing job communicating. They were great managing everything themselves and saying “don’t worry, we’ll take care of that” which was hugely reassuring. They communicated with/help keep neighbours happy and the site was pristine, fenced off and safe. I suggest keeping everything “in-house” with them to keep things moving smoothly as any delays we had were from us trying to bring in someone else less organized to do something.

5. People: What a team! Yvon, their head carpenter and our site manager can solve any problem and was extremely dedicated and smart. Melika, their designer, is amazingly organized and jumped in at the end our our project and was a massive help and can adapt any style. Henry, our PM, was the best and could/should be a therapist. Their day to day workers are polite, hardworking, careful and really talented. They were invested in, excited about and really seemed to care about our project.

Pavel, the owner, is amazing and sets the tone for everything I’ve listed above. He is fair, respected by his entire crew and all the subtrades, and great to work with. He has a lot of experience and I have the feeling he has dealt with all things that could ever come up in a reno. There are one or two times I realized I should have listened to him when I didn’t! He hit the mark on his advice to us everytime in the project, navigating us through supply chain and COVID issues easily and kept the day to day stresses away from us. He is like a parent to the project making sure everything is running the way it should; balancing the vision, practicality, and firmness required to have a construction project run well in Toronto, in these volatile times.

With Novacon, Pavel has created a team that is about great quality, fair pricing, a smooth renovation process, done in a safe way with the intention on keeping you and your family happy. He definitely delivered that to us - we now have our dream home!
