Harold Taggart began transforming streets in the Glebe and Ottawa’s west end into homes for returning war veterans in 1948. Joined by his family, the company grew in size and reputation into the Taggart Group of Companies, including Tamarack Homes, Taggart Construction, Taggart Realty Management, and Doran Contractors – itself an Ottawa institution dating back to 1846.
Today, that proud legacy and dedication to community building excellence continues through the hands-on efforts of Harold’s children and grandchildren.
Our Ottawa home builder legacy was born when Harold Taggart began transforming streets in Eastern Ontario into new houses for sale in Ottawa for returning war veterans in 1948. A high standard was set from the beginning - more than just new homes in Ottawa, they were where lives would unfold and futures be realized. They had to be the best.
Today, that proud legacy and dedication to excellence continues through the hands-on efforts of his family and Tamarack Homes. Each owner of a new home in Ottawa and Kingston is assured the same quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that Harold insisted on.
