A construction experience designed for you
Since its inception, Harmonie Construction has been guided by the idea that your new home project should be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. Founded by Maxime Therrien and Maurice Dagenais, two passionate individuals driven by the desire to do things right, the company has grown with the promise of offering a human and reassuring experience to every client.
To this day, our approach is based on open communication, consistent rigor, and a deep commitment to doing things right.
Our values guide each of our actions and drive us to continuously improve.
We will bring your single-family home, bi-generational home, or semi-detached home project to life in harmony with your dreams, your vision, your needs, and your values.
Personalized guidance for your new build preliminary project.
A new home project is a significant undertaking, and every step matters. We have designed this process to clearly present how we support you, from the first conversation to the agreement that officially launches your project. The five steps of the process illustrate how your project progresses in a structured, coherent, and transparent manner.
Objective: Get to know you and understand your project
It all begins with a simple and open conversation. Your housing advisor takes the time to listen to your story, your needs, and your priorities. We discuss your vision, the type of home you envision, and the budget you wish to adhere to.
This meeting helps establish a trusting relationship and confirm that our way of working aligns with what you are looking for.
You will leave with:
- A realistic initial assessment of your project.
- An invitation to participate in the Harmonie Tour to see our projects firsthand and clarify your options.
Objective: Discover the Harmonie universe firsthand and validate the feasibility of your project
During this tour, we will introduce you to our residential projects, our model home, and land plots that align with the general scope of your project. This visit primarily allows you to explore the location and natural environment: the tranquility of the site, the spaciousness, the large lots, and the proximity to nature. It’s an opportunity to experience the place and truly envision yourself living there.
This is both an emotional and a rational step. You observe the quality of our constructions, the care taken in project development, and what your budget allows you to achieve concretely.
You will leave with:
- A preliminary feasibility assessment of your project.
- A clear understanding of the alignment between your needs and the Harmonie approach.
Objective: Deepen the understanding of your project and establish the concrete foundations for its realization
After the Harmonie Tour, we take a moment to discuss your project in more detail. We discuss your current situation, your real needs, your constraints, and the motivations that lead you to consider a new home in our area or within one of our projects. This is an open exchange where we aim to fully understand what you wish to create, as well as what you prefer to avoid.
We then address essential elements of your project such as your budget, the various options available according to your priorities, your timeline, the question of a house for sale, or your mortgage qualification. This discussion allows us to outline the initial framework for a project that meets your requirements and lifestyle.
You will leave with:
- A clearer and more structured vision for your project.
- Budget guidelines and concrete options tailored to your situation.
- The feeling of being understood and guided in the right directions.
Objective: Identify the ideal location for your home and confirm that it meets the requirements of your project.
At this stage, we focus on the plots of land that best match your project and lifestyle. The goal is to identify one or two potential locations that stand out for their orientation, natural environment, and compatibility with the envisioned home model.
On site, you begin to envision your home in this space: the light, the tranquility of the site, the connection with nature and the large lots. At the same time, our team validates the specific characteristics of the land to confirm that it meets the technical and budgetary requirements of your project.
The elements confirmed at this stage then allow us to prepare the official proposal based on clear and realistic foundations.
You will leave with:
- The final selection of your lot (or two selected options).
- A home model or typology that meets your needs and integrates harmoniously with the chosen lot.
Objective: Present a complete offer and confirm the feasibility of your project.
This is the moment when everything that has been imagined, discussed, and validated takes shape. We bring together every element: the selected lot, the chosen model, your priorities, and the adjustments defined throughout our conversations. We review the figures and details together to confirm that everything aligns with your vision and your reality.
This step marks a significant advancement. Your project becomes extremely concrete, and you have everything you need to move on to the next phase of the pre-project journey: the signing of the agreement.
You will leave with:
- A precise proposal including a model, a price, and a plot of land.
- The certainty that your project is ready to be formalized.
Objective: Officially confirm the start of your project with Harmonie.
Once all validations are complete, we proceed together to sign the official agreement. This document compiles all decisions made since the beginning of the process and marks a significant moment for your project.
At this stage, you are also introduced to our project management team, who will support you throughout the preparation and construction phases.
This stage brings a significant amount of emotion. Your project is clear, aligned, and ready to move forward. It is certainly at this point that our clients feel a mix of excitement and satisfaction, because their home is no longer just a vision. It is now a concrete project that truly begins to take shape.
You will leave with:
- A clear and transparent agreement.
- Confirmation that your home officially enters the construction phase.

Our vision & our values
Every home we build begins with a vision: to create a place that is meaningful for the people who will live there. This vision takes shape through the values that guide us, day after day, on construction sites and in the office. They direct our decisions, our actions, and our way of supporting each client during an important moment in their life.
Passion is our alarm clock, our fuel, what drives our company forward. Every day, our work inspires us and we all believe in the value it brings to our clients. Life is much better with a positive and optimistic attitude!
For us, integrity means being honest and transparent in every interaction with our clients, our employees, and our partners. It means honoring our commitments, keeping our promises, and acting ethically, regardless of the situation. Trust is essential in a construction project, and we work every day to earn it and maintain it.
We believe that everything can be improved, and we learn every day. That is why we question our processes, constantly raise the quality of our construction, and continuously enhance the client experience. We also provide training to our team, because acknowledging our mistakes and learning from them is part of our progress.
We believe that open and transparent collaboration is essential to the success of every project. We encourage communication, cooperation, and knowledge sharing to create a healthy and lasting relationship with our clients, our partners, and our team. This collaborative approach is at the heart of how we build.
We are deeply committed to quality, and it is a promise we uphold at every stage of a project. It begins with attentive service that aims to understand your needs, advise you, and guide you throughout the construction process. We favor durable and high-performance materials, and we pay meticulous attention to details, because they are what transform a house into an exceptional living space.
Meet the Owners
Maurice Dagenais
Director of Operations
“For me, every project begins before we even talk about plans or materials. It begins with an authentic conversation where I try to understand what you are truly looking for: your lifestyle, your priorities, your constraints, what reassures you and what concerns you. I deeply believe that the success of a home is first and foremost based on that understanding.
My role is to support you from the earliest stages, to clarify what may seem complex, and to offer you a realistic and transparent vision of the project. I like to take the time, answer questions, and ensure that you move forward with confidence. What matters to me is that you feel you are in good hands, with a team that does things seriously, with heart and with respect.
Every meeting is an opportunity to build a strong relationship, based on trust, communication, and listening. And it is this relationship that, over the course of projects, becomes one of the greatest strengths of Harmonie Construction.”
Maxime Thérien
President and CEO
“For me, a home is never simply a project. It is an important moment in people’s lives, and I believe we have a responsibility to approach it with seriousness, listening, and transparency. In our team, we take the time to explain things properly, clarify the steps, and ensure that every decision is made for the right reasons, always in the client’s best interest.
I am proud to work with passionate, rigorous, and authentic people who pay as much attention to the relationship as to the quality of the work performed on construction sites. We move forward with honesty, we honor our commitments, and we constantly seek to improve. It is this approach, guided by our values, that makes Harmonie Construction a team you can truly count on to bring your project to life.”
Our Team
Skander Souissi
Project Manager
What guides my work is ensuring clear planning and rigorous coordination from the start. I take over our clients once financing is obtained and contracts are signed, then I structure each step, from design to home delivery.
I ensure that everything is well organized and understood, while continuously seeking to improve our processes. My goal is to enable a smooth and coherent flow, where every decision is made at the right time and for the right reasons.
Marc Étienne Robillard
Foreman
In my work, what matters above all is that the construction site progresses in a structured manner and in accordance with what has been planned. I supervise the work on a daily basis and ensure that each step is carried out with seriousness and precision.
When challenges or unforeseen circumstances arise, I take the time to handle them properly to stay on track and deliver a result that meets expectations. My goal is to ensure careful and consistent execution, from start to final finishes.
Jesse Thérien
Site Technician
On a daily basis, I ensure that the construction site remains clean, safe, and well organized. My work consists of supporting the team and subcontractors so that operations run efficiently and under good conditions.
I thus contribute to creating an orderly work environment, which facilitates the progress of the work and allows the home to be realized, step by step, as it was envisioned.
Anthony Mili
Foreman
What matters most in my role is that the construction site progresses in an organized and structured manner. I ensure schedules are met, manage unforeseen circumstances, and make sure each step proceeds as planned, so that the project moves forward without unnecessary pressure.
I ensure that the work is well coordinated on the construction site to allow our clients to focus on what matters and see their project take shape with peace of mind.
Cédrick Richard
Project Manager
My approach is based on solid preparation and a thorough understanding of client expectations from the outset. I am involved in project planning, from preliminary design to home delivery, to ensure that every choice is consistent with the client’s vision.
I handle the technical aspects and the organization of the steps to simplify the process and reduce the mental load. This allows our clients to focus on their decisions, such as choosing materials and colors, while knowing that the project structure is well managed.
Patrick De La Chevrotière
After-Sales Service Manager
What matters to me is that every home is delivered in impeccable condition. I step in at the end of the work to prepare for delivery, correct items that need adjustment, and ensure that everything is compliant before handing over the keys.
After delivery, I remain available to answer questions, provide follow-up, and support clients with necessary adjustments. My role is to ensure that our clients feel supported and well accompanied, even after the project is completed.
