Planning to Renovate Your Condo?

Are your planning to renovate your condo?

Condo renovations are a wonderful opportunity to create a functional and beautiful living space. But they are are more complex than a home renovation. Different building codes and materials, logistics and work restrictions and approvals must be considered. The great news is, there are still ways to work within the constraints to design and build a beautiful living space.

We've been renovating condos in the Toronto area for nearly 20 years. Here are some of the things to consider, and some tips to help make your condominium renovation a pleasant experience.

Choosing A Condo Renovation Contractor

Choosing a condo renovation contractor?

Start with a properly insured contractor. Insist on a contractor with a WSIB Clearance certificate, and $2 million liability insurance. A small plumbing leak in a house can cause thousands in damage. In a condominium building, it can be tens or even hundreds of thousands.

Look for a condo renovation contractor who has the ability and desire to professionally represent you at the condominium management office. Your property manager will love you when you work with a professional condo renovation contractor.

Fortunately there are renovation contractors that are experienced with condo renovations. Using an experienced condominium renovator will make the process much easier and more pleasant.

Rules & Logistics

Every condo building has rules that will regulate renovations. At minimum, they will set working hours. They may require approvals prior to starting work. Some buildings will regulate the type of materials that are installed, such as flooring. Buildings in the Toronto core tend to have more restrictions than in a suburb.

Additionally, you can only renovate what is yours - the interior finishes in your condo unit. Concrete walls, exterior windows and doors are part of the common elements of the building and cannot be touched.

Logistics are vital. How are material deliveries arranged? How about waste removal? And contractor parking? Projects in downtown Toronto condominiums with limited space can be more complex than a condo renovation in Mississauga or Richmond Hill which is built on a larger piece of land.

How We work: design + build

Every great condo renovation begins with design.

Our design build process works equally well with condo renovations as it does with other home renovation projects.

Our designer will help create concepts and options, review them with you, and help with product selections. We will secure any required approvals from condo management and a building permit if needed. And then our construction team will take over and perform all the work on the project.

We take on all types of condominium renovation projects, including condo kitchen renovations and condo bathroom renovations. Over the past 15 years, we have completed condominium renovations in Toronto, North York, Mississauga and as far north as Blue Mountain.
