About

Only Excellence is Referable

Built on Quality

We are known for delivering quality that exceeds our customers’ expectations. We take pride in our work, care about our people and stand by our advice.
As part of our commitment to quality, we do not employ cash paid daily labourers, nor do we subcontract to companies that do. Instead, we have extensive contacts and rely on a wide network of subcontractors.

In addition, our fulltime Caruana employees do the bulk of our renovation work and oversee projects from start to finish, attending to every last detail.

Safety is Always top of mind

Our employees and clients are our greatest asset, and their safety our top priority. As such, we endeavour to ensure a safe and healthy work environment. This is reflected in our participation in

  • the Certificate of Recognition (COR) program, a health and safety initiative offered through the Alberta Construction Safety Association
  • the Personal Injury Reduction (PIR) program offered through the Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB) of Alberta

Start Clean, Work Clean, Finish Clean

Oh, the dents, dings and dust!

At Caruana, we understand that renovations can be frustrating. We know that clients worry about the state of their premises through the process. We therefore treat every space as though it were our own. Our contractors strive to protect your home and your belongings. Because we care about clean worksites, we not only use dust barriers, but we also take great care to protect all floors.

At Caruana, all employees are required to complete first aid training within 90 days of hire. In addition, our site foreman oversees projects to identify and mitigate safety issues before they reach a critical stage.

We are

  • licensed in every city in which we do work
  • bonded to protect any deposits or downpayments
  • fully insured from liability

All our workers are covered by the Workers’ Compensation Board of Alberta (WCB).

    Neville and his crew did an amazing job on my rental unit upgrade! The work was completed on budget and on time. They even use a financing company that holds the funds until you review and approve the completed work! I Highly Recommend Caruana Interiors!

    We had our old deck and hot tub ripped out and a new deck installed prior to our new hot tub arriving. We were very happy with the prompt and wonderful service Caruana and all of their staff members provided. The trades people and workers were professional and worked tirelessly to get the project done. The project cost a few thousand more than expected due to needing grading added before the deck install and electrician charges, but made sense once we went over the final invoice. We will definitely be using Caruana again when we do other renos in the future!

    Neville Ward came through in a pinch and saved me thousands of dollars. Now I have a rental property that can be even more effectively rented and when the time comes to sell it will be worth even more.

    If you are contemplating a renovation in a rental home that you own, I’d highly recommend Neville Ward of Caruana Interiors & Contracting.

    Caruana was very professional in their approach to my bathroom renovations. I received valuable advice from their decorator and the work was completed in a timely manner. I was very happy with the end result.

    We were 100% satisfied with the job done by Caruana Interiors. From the first visit when Graham came for a consultation, to Carl’s final touches at the end of the job, we felt that the workers were working to our best interests. We were happy with the job and appreciate the patience in dealing with perfectionists!!!
    We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Caruana again: communication was excellent, professional attitudes were obvious and the workmanship was top of the line. It was a very positive experience; thanks to you all!

    I have used Caruana 3 times….kitchen, en-suite bathroom and guest bathroom over the last 3 years. The work has been very professional by Caruana staff and the hired trades people were all extremely capable. Valerie Kosik-Sawyer, the interior designer, especially made my choices of tiles and colours etc. easier to make. Efforts were made to keep to a reasonable time line and my questions were always answered. I would and have recommended them to my friends and neighbours.

    We contracted Caruana to convert our completely unfinished basement into a much needed extra living space by adding 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchenette and a large family room with small workout station. Neville was very helpful in providing advice that would keep us within our budget, and he was readily available throughout the project to answer our questions, always responding immediately and having his staff keep us informed of their schedules.

    We really appreciated the care and attention that Caruana staff displayed throughout the project – a high precision and quality of workmanship, cleanliness, friendliness and constant communication. We’re extremely happy with the finished product. It’s a beauty.

Who We Are

Neville

Neville has been primarily self-employed since he was 19 years old, and he got into the renovation business after close to 10 years of owning and operating specialty coffee restaurants. It was during the many hours planning, building and renovating these restaurants that he realized he enjoyed that part most. In 2006 he moved across the country to Edmonton to begin renovating full-time. Through constant networking and relationship building, his goal is to make Caruana Interiors and Contracting the premier renovator for all homeowners in the Edmonton region. He leads the team to continuously strive for excellence, while allowing the team to set their own goals and vision for the company.

Jessica

Jessica has been with us for over eight years, only taking some time off to become a Mom. She is the friendly voice whenever you call into the office to book an in-home estimate, and she is always willing to help out. In her role as “Office Manager” she is instrumental in keeping the office running smoothly and keeping us all in line. She takes care of all the paperwork from invoicing to safety documentation. When she is not hard at work, she loves spending time with her family, which includes her two children, pets, and an undying love of Oilers.

Graham

As one of our very first employees, Graham has been with us for over nine years and has become a key member on the team. He spent a lot of time on tools in the earlier years and steadily grown in several roles. He is currently our “Sales Manager” and you will see him at all of our in-home estimates. Once a project starts, Graham works with Carl and Calvin to organize the materials, sub-contractors and our other employees to get the job done. Happy customers and high-quality work are his top priorities. In his free time, Graham plays drums and has travelled the world, touring as a professional musician.

Calvin

Calvin has been with us for more than six years, and in that time has proven himself to be focussed on customer service and having a keen eye for detail. He has gained recognition as our “finisher” on projects, taking care of all those little details. Recently taking on the “Materials and Customer Communications” role, he is typically the main customer contact once a project has started, and makes sure materials are selected and on site when needed.

Carl

Carl has extensive experience in many types of renovations, with over 30 years in the industry. He has done everything from bathrooms and basements, all the way up to building homes in the northern reaches of Canada. He brings his organization, determination, and wide range of skills to our team. As our “Production Manager” he is instrumental in projects starting and finishing on time, and arranging all of our trusted tradespeople.
