About Taggart Group of Companies
The roots of the Taggart Group of Companies date back to the early 1940s when Harold Taggart started building homes in the west end of Ottawa.

He founded Taggart Construction in 1948. With enthusiasm, hard work, and a dedicated team of employees, Taggart Construction flourished and provided the momentum needed for the continued growth of the Taggart Group of Companies. Harold’s children and grandchildren have since joined the business, adding new companies and expanding the scope of services offered.
