About Us
J.L. Richards
100% Canadian owned and operated.  When working with JLR, you are working with the company owners.An important distinction that sets JLR apart is our organizational structure: we are a completely Canadian company and are entirely owned and operated by our employees. This structure empowers employees to share in ensuring exceptional quality control at every stage of our projects and allows our entire team to fully understand what clients want and how to deliver designs and built projects that meet their needs. Being employee owned means that our staff has the chance to own a stake in their own success and participate in shaping JLR’s future.
JLR currently has offices in Ottawa (1955), Kingston (1971), Sudbury (1974), Timmins (2001), North Bay (2005), Guelph (2013), and London (2025). Our geographic reach extends across North America and around the world, with projects executed in over 75 countries. JLR stands out in the industry due to our uniquely collaborative approach.

​We work as a team on every project to ensure that our clients get the very best quality, service, and value.
