Home Renovation in North York

North York mixes mid-century family homes with some of Toronto's highest interest in laneway and garden suites, and both are a large part of our work here — modernizing the main house and, increasingly, adding a fully separate second dwelling behind it.

Local knowledge

We know North York houses

1950s–1970s bungalows and two-storey homes across most of North York, larger character homes in York Mills and Armour Heights, and mid-rise condominium stock around Yonge and Sheppard.

Laneway and garden suite additions

North York has a good supply of the deep, rear-yard lots that laneway and garden suites need, and demand for them here is strong, whether for rental income, aging parents or adult children. We assess lot depth, laneway or rear yard access, tree protection and servicing before design, since those factors determine what size suite is actually achievable.

We manage the Toronto Building permit process for garden suites specifically, including the utility and stormwater requirements that come with adding a fully serviced second structure to the lot.

Renovating mid-century family homes

Most North York bungalows and two-storeys from the 1950s to 1970s need the same three things: an opened-up main floor, updated mechanical systems and a finished basement. We plan wiring, insulation and HVAC upgrades into the same campaign as the kitchen and living space renovation while the walls are already open.

For families outgrowing the existing footprint, rear additions are a straightforward alternative to a laneway suite when the goal is more space for the main household rather than a separate rental unit.

Questions

Renovating in North York

Do you build laneway and garden suites in North York?

+

Yes. We assess lot access, servicing and tree protection first, then manage design, Toronto Building permits and construction through to completion.

Can you renovate a North York bungalow and finish the basement at the same time?

+

Yes, and doing both together is usually more efficient since wiring, insulation and HVAC upgrades can be planned as one campaign rather than two.

Do you handle Toronto Building permits for garden suites?

+

Yes, including the stormwater and utility servicing requirements specific to garden suites.
