Your Local Exterior Renovation Team

About Us

HRM’s # 1 Exterior Renovator

Building Futures Together

At Total One Contracting, we’re a locally owned and operated crew built on hard work, honesty, and real experience. What started as a small, family-run business has grown into one of Halifax’s most trusted names in exterior construction.

We work across HRM — from Sackville to Dartmouth — and treat every project like it’s in our own backyard. Whether you’re a homeowner fixing up your space or a business needing a full build, you’ll get a team that shows up, gets it done, and stands by the results.

What Our Clients Have Said

Total One replaced our old step with a new composite step and additional deck. Trent was very responsive in getting the job organized. We asked for a specific date and they showed up on that date. Evan and Doug did a great job and Evan made some great suggestions on design. Will definitely be using Total One in the future.

We marked out the spots and were able to get 72 screw piles in the ground in two days. They were very helpful and when we needed a few adjustments made they were very accommodating! They will be doing all the rest of the pile work we need for sure. Highly recommend them.

I contacted Trent when we decided to replace our deck. We discussed the options of wood versus composite and decided to go with the composite. We are extremely pleased with the quality and workmanship; his crew was top notch.Trent and his crew were a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend Total One Contracting

Trent and his crew were amazing to work with. He was able to problem solve around issues we encountered about the elevation of our 2-16x20 decks. He has a great working knowledge of using composite decking ! The team works within the budget we gave him. Timely, professional and responsive. Lana
