A family owned and operated company with almost 30 years of fine craftsmanship and customer satisfaction. Centennial Homes was founded in 1992 by Domenic DiLalla, then known under the name of Can-Di Homes. Since then we have branched out to other construction industries such as infrastructure, foundations and concrete. With the arrival of the second generation into to the industry Can-Di Homes was relaunched with a whole new name; Centennial Homes, but our principles have always stayed true to our demeanor – quality and customer satisfaction overall.
As a family owned and operated business, we know what building a family home is truly about; efficiency without the sacrifice of style. Throughout the Niagara region our truly unique and contemporary style has become well known and in high demand. As we now extend our craftsmanship and distinctive style outside of the Niagara Region in prestigious areas such as Collingwood and Milton, we look forward on becoming a household name within Ontario. From fully custom homes to full subdivisions, whatever your dream home and budget entails, Centennial Homes can build it for you.
“I have bought 3 homes from Centennial construction during the past 3 years. During my interface with the company I have noticed that Centennial staff; is very professional, very helpful to meet the requirements, also very flexible with closing of the property also. The workmanship of construction is good quality and I will definitely buying more and also will strongly recommend to my friends who will become their customers.”
“Thank you Centennial home for building our dream home. The quality in your homes speak for themselves and we wouldn’t be more happier in choosing you for our custom home”
“If you want your custom built home to be the best in quality, look and workmanship, no further. Centennial homes built our pre-construction home and did an absolute amazing job. There attention to detail and good quality material made our home that much better.”
“Amazing team; honest, professional, hard working family!”
“Just recently closed on a house near Blue Mountain, and was blown away by the professionalism shown when discussing our future home and any questions we had during the process. Our home closed on time and was built to a level of quality that my father (retired builder) was impressed. I can see my family and I spending many years in our new wonderful home. Thank you again for making the whole process a pleasure.”
“Great Home buying experience. Good People. Homely atmosphere. Flexible as per your needs. So overall nice guys. I would highly recommend them.”

As a home base in the heart of Niagara on the Lake, Centennial Homes and Centennial Construction truly believe in giving back to our community and the history that makes our community truly special.
History Behind Voices of Freedom
Voices of Freedom gives expression to the silenced and forgotten stories of people of African descent, enslaved, freed, and free, whose sacrifices, labour, skills, and talents contributed to the development of Niagara-on-the-Lake. Voices of Freedom permanently inscribes these Black men and women on the historical and cultural landscape of the town.
The design of Voices of Freedom as an art piece encompasses the whole site. The resulting space supports a strong experiential narrative by combining sculptural art with park design. As visitors move through the space, they interact with the various components visually and physically. The art is comprised of four linked components.
As a first-generation Canadian family, we truly embraced our Canadian roots when coming to Canada, with a deep seeded love for hockey. Throughout the years we have been the leading sponsors in local hockey teams such as Niagara Falls Junior B: Niagara Falls Canucks, and other local minor hockey leagues throughout the city.
In 2012, with the opening of Niagara Falls new arena, the Gales Centre we jumped at the opportunity to be major sponsors and give back to our city. With four rinks, named after the facilities major sponsors, we are proud to have a rink named after the Centennial Family.
A.N Myer Secondary School holds a special place in our hearts, as it the school both co-owners attended during their high school years, many moons ago. A dream of ours have always been to give back to those who saw so much potential in us at such a young age. A way we did so was with the recent 2018 donation of A.N Myer’s state of the art basketball/tennis courts.
Now students and children from Niagara Falls are able to enjoy four prestigious and hygienic basketball and tennis courts during any season, at any time of the day.
If you walk into Centennial Homes office, you can tell right away we are animal lovers. With our dedicated employee Q-Ball greeting you at the front door, to our multiple portraits and trophies from our horse-racing division, we truly believe in giving back to those who do not have a voice.
Domenic DiLalla was the President of the Niagara Falls Humane Society for over 7 years, even introducing the “No Kill Mandate” in 2008 , no longer allowing healthy animals to be euthanized. This was a huge step in Animal Rights during this time and an organization we still hold true to our hearts, to this very day.

As a family run business we know the true value of hard work and dedication, we also know that we as a company, would be nowhere without the dedication and skills of each and every single one of our employees. Throughout the years, we have continued to notice that the cost of living is constantly on the rise, knowing that minimum wage is just not enough to get by. We never want our employees to struggle and that is why, even as we continue to grow, all our employees know we are there for them in every way. We are excited to partner with Ontario Living Wage Network and other local businesses as we work together to improve living conditions and end poverty across the Niagara Region. We hope that many local companies follow our lead, as we truly believe that every hardworking individual deserves to live comfortably.
