Why Tartan?
At Tartan, we've learned a lot about how people live during over four decades as one of Ottawa's most respected builders. Today, that experience is reflected in every home we build, in the communities we develop, and in our approach to serving customers long after they move in.
AWARD-WINNING design & innovation
Respond to changing times and lifestyles – winning awards from industry panels and applause from homebuyers across the entire spectrum of the market. Over the years, we've taken home numerous Ottawa Carleton Home Builders Association (OCHBA) design awards, we’ve won Sammy Awards including the Grand Sammy award for sales and marketing and model home merchandizing, we've been honoured with the Col Boss Award and Enbridge Hall of Fame Award, and we've been part of the Royal Bank Top Ten Club for sales volume. All of which demonstrate that Tartan is a proven leader in new home design and construction – and that Tartan homebuyers know quality and value when they see it.
ENERGY-EFFICIENT, healthy homes
We lead the way with energy-efficient, long-lasting, people friendly materials and building techniques. In fact, all Tartan homes are Energy Star certified. An Energy Star certified home will save you 30% off your energy bills over homes meeting normal building code. Tartan buyers get a healthy home built to last and designed to reduce energy costs and the impact on the environment.HIGHER STANDARDS, highest quality
The standard features and finishings you’ll find in every Tartan-built single family home are not only of the highest quality, they are truly beyond what the vast majority of builders today consider the norm. We only accept the best in building materials, and only work with suppliers whose commitment to quality matches our own.AT YOUR SERVICE, always
Combine all of that with our commitment to servicing buyers from the moment they sign until long after they move in and you'll quickly realize why Tartan is the discerning homebuyers' builder. If you’re looking for a home that will truly give you and your family the comfort you deserve, you’ve come to the right place—Tartan Homes.40-year ARCHITECTURAL shingles
Tartan has combined beauty with durability by choosing a 40-year architectural shingle – the only builder to do so as a standard feature. Laminated architectural shingles by BiltmoreTM ensure every Tartan built home is topped off with quality. Biltmore shingles are built to last, with double layer construction and tough, modified sealant providing superior tear strength values and greater resistance to high winds. They are manufactured in a larger size than most shingles, with the added exposure enhancing their shake-like appearance.
