Tile & Stone Installation, Done with Care.

Custom showers, bathrooms, fireplaces, heated floors, large-format tile, natural stone and terrazzo—installed for homeowners, builders and designers across Ottawa and the Ottawa Valley.

Owner-led since 2010, Northside brings experienced planning, careful execution and clear communication to every job.

Care in Every Part of the Installation

The finished surface is only part of the job. Northside takes care with the preparation, waterproofing, layout, cuts, edges and transitions that determine how the room looks and how well it performs over time.

That attention is especially important in custom showers, heated floors, large-format tile, natural stone, fireplaces and detailed feature work.

You get a clean, considered installation—and clear communication from the first site review through the final walkthrough.

For Builders, Contractors + Designers

Reliable Tile Work for Your Team

Northside works with custom builders, renovation contractors and designers on new homes, major renovations and select commercial spaces. We review plans and selections early, coordinate with the site schedule and keep communication direct.

Whether the scope is one detailed room or tile throughout a home, you can expect careful execution, a tidy site and a finish that reflects well on the whole team.

How We Work


A clear process protects the design, the schedule, and the finished installation.

Share the Project


Send the location, photos or drawings, material selections, approximate dimensions, and desired timing. Northside reviews the scope and confirms the right next step.

Resolve the Details


Before setting begins, key conditions are reviewed: substrate readiness, waterproofing, layout, drains, profiles, transitions, movement accommodation, access, and coordination with other trades.
