Explore our work

From Hubbards to Lunenburg and everywhere in between, we’ve been building and renovating homes along the South Shore for over a decade.

At Kildare Construction, we’re a small, experienced construction company based just outside Herring Cove. While we do a lot of work in Halifax, a big part of what we do happens down the coast—renovating older homes, building custom cottages, and helping South Shore homeowners bring new life to their properties.

If you’re looking for a contractor who knows the region and cares about doing the job right, you’re in the right place.

WHERE WE WORK

We take on residential construction and renovation projects throughout the South Shore, including:

  • Hubbards

  • Chester

  • Mahone Bay

  • Lunenburg

  • Bridgewater

  • Petite Rivière

  • Queens County & surrounding communities

Whether it’s a year-round home or a summer property, we bring the same attention to detail and respect for the job.

WHY SOUTH SHORE CLIENTS WORK WITH US

We’re local. We live and work here, and understand what homes in this region need.
We’re accountable. We show up, clean up, and stick to the plan.

Most of our projects come from referrals, and many of our clients bring us back for future work. That says something. Take a look at a few of the jobs we’ve completed along the South Shore to get a sense of what we do.
