John McLellan Contracting Inc. was thrilled to partner with Habitat for Humanity in the local build "Centre Towne" during November 2012.  John, alongside various employees, got to work on the block of townhouses completing the roofing aspect of the project in Oshawa which will provide homes to 24 families. 


Participating in a project for Habitat Durham was a wonderful way to help out the local community and provides us with the opportunity to give back. 


About Habitat for Humanity - Centre Towne:


This parcel of land was formerly the home of the Schofield Woolen Mills. It is located at 372 Centre Street South in Oshawa. It is in the southwest shoulder area of downtown Oshawa close to schools, shopping, clinics and transportation. The downtown core of Oshawa has been undergoing a positive transformation and this parcel sits in an established older neighbourhood just to the west of Simcoe Street. 


We will be able to adapt end units for wheelchair accessibility if required. The homes will be built with the newest building code energy requirements as well as using Green Building techniques, making them affordable to maintain"

About John McLellan

John McLellan is the owner of McLellan Contracting and a GAF Master Elite® certified contractor—a distinction held by only the top 2% of roofing contractors in North America. This elite status enables him to offer industry-leading 50-year material and labor warranties, plus 25 years of workmanship coverage that standard contractors cannot provide. With over two decades of experience, John has built his business on quality workmanship, manufacturer-backed warranties, and transparent pricing. He ensures his entire team completes a minimum of five days of certified training annually through GAF and other industry programs—a significant commitment in an industry where 94% of roofers have never had formal training.

 

To maintain Master Elite certification, John's company must requalify annually, meeting rigorous standards for training credits, installation volume, and customer satisfaction. His detailed, itemized quotes help homeowners understand exactly what components protect their investment and why proper installation matters. A vocal advocate for consumer protection, John educates homeowners about the critical differences between minimum code compliance and best practices. McLellan Contracting serves the Durham Region and surrounding communities, bringing professional installation standards and manufacturer-backed peace of mind to every project..
