The regulator in charge of home construction in Ontario is freezing the assets of an Ottawa company that abruptly shut down, leaving homeowners, contractors and employees in the lurch.
it is freezing the assets of Highbridge Construction, which suddenly ceased operations earlier this month. The company's licence has also been suspended.
Homeowners, employees and contractors have all said they are owed thousands of dollars. The company also owes its landlord $106,000 rent for its storefront space on St. Joseph Boulevard, according to a notice of distress posted on the door. "The HCRA is particularly concerned that deposit money was taken from purchasers as part of these projects but was not returned as the company claimed insolvency," the news release said.
