Renovation Contractors in Etobicoke

Renovating Etobicoke Homes, One Era at a Time

Etobicoke was built in waves, and each wave renovates differently. In Mimico, New Toronto, Long Branch and Alderwood, the post-war bungalows and small two-storeys have plaster walls, original hardwood and narrow lots, often with a shared driveway down one side. Opening a kitchen wall there means checking what the plaster hides, and staging a bin means talking to the neighbour first. Many of these houses are being rebuilt or extended, and we size the plan to what the lot can hold.

In Markland Wood, Eringate, Centennial Park and Richview, the 1950s and 60s bungalows and split-levels are reaching their first full renovation: basements finished, kitchens opened to the back, plaster replaced with drywall. In The Kingsway, Humber Valley Village and Sunnylea, the larger 1930s to 50s homes call for additions and higher-end finishes that respect the original character, often on treed or ravine lots where Toronto's tree by-law and ravine review shape what can be built.

Because Etobicoke sits inside the City of Toronto, permits go through Toronto Building. Basement apartments are secondary suites, and laneway and garden suites are possible on some lots. We prepare the drawings and application, book inspections and arrange street parking permits for the crew. We also renovate commercial space, from Bloor West storefronts to Rexdale industrial-office units, scheduled around business hours.
