Country Ranch Revival

This country ranch home renovation transformed a deteriorating property into a safe and stylish living space. The home needed urgent repairs, with an outdated kitchen, original bathrooms, and a failing garage foundation that had sunk six inches, causing major structural concerns.

Our renovation team reinforced the home’s structural integrity, repairing the garage foundation to ensure long-term stability. The front veranda and crumbling retaining wall, previously held together by deteriorating railroad ties, were replaced with durable materials. These updates improved both safety and curb appeal.

Inside, we modernized the kitchen and bathrooms, aligning the design with the homeowners’ style. Electrical upgrades ensured safety and compliance, while fresh finishes throughout the home enhanced comfort and aesthetics.

The result is a revitalized ranch home, blending functionality with timeless design. Now, the homeowners can enjoy a safe, beautifully updated space that enhances both daily living and long-term value.

Retirement Retreat

This modern bungalow renovation transformed a dated 1980s home into a comfortable, retirement-ready retreat. The homeowners, preparing for their next chapter, wanted a warm and inviting space that prioritized both style and function.

To achieve this, we removed walls and reconfigured spaces, creating a seamless open-concept layout. The basement walls required crucial repairs, ensuring long-term structural integrity. Brighter, larger doors were installed to maximize natural light, enhancing the home’s airy feel.

A spacious kitchen with an island became the heart of the home, offering ample room for cooking and gathering. Carefully selected feature lighting, warm colours, and rich textures brought depth and personality to the space.

Now, the new owners enjoy a beautifully modernized bungalow designed for comfort, function, and years of joyful living.

Townhouse Renewal

This townhouse renovation revitalized a 1970s flat roof six-unit structure, transforming it into a modern and highly desirable living space. The project started with a full demolition, addressing outdated structures and critical issues, including asbestos abatement.

The renovation included new windows, doors, electrical systems, plumbing, and insulation, ensuring each unit met today’s standards for comfort and efficiency. To improve functionality, we installed individual meters for water, natural gas, and hydro, providing accurate billing for tenants.

On the exterior, the building was meticulously finished to blend seamlessly with neighbouring properties. Each unit received a private patio and fully landscaped outdoor space, creating an inviting atmosphere. New asphalt completed the transformation, enhancing curb appeal and long-term durability.

This project showcases how a thoughtful renovation can turn an aging structure into a profitable, modern rental property. The results speak for themselves – all six units were rented within weeks, delivering strong investment returns for the owner.

Accessibility Upgrade

This accessibility renovation focused on transforming a newly purchased home into a fully wheelchair-accessible living space across all levels. The work began with a patio lift and new composite porch at the front entrance, ensuring immediate access.

After securing permits, we built a second-floor addition and installed an elevator in the garage, connecting all three levels and the garage itself. The elevator now provides smooth access to the kitchen, basement, primary bedroom, and garage, removing all mobility barriers.

To ensure cohesion, both interior and exterior finishes were matched to the original home. Oak trim and hardwood flooring carried throughout the interior maintain a warm, elegant look. Additional upgrades included a rear deck, finished basement, oak barn doors, and updated kitchen and bathrooms.

The project was recently completed with a new roof, adding both protection and value. This renovation shows that accessibility and elegant design can go hand in hand, creating a home that is both beautiful and barrier-free.
