Ajax Home Renovations, Kitchens & Basement Finishing

Home Renovation Toronto is a licensed and insured general contractor and design-build firm that has delivered home renovation in Ajax, Ontario since 1996. Our crews build custom kitchens with ceiling-height cabinetry, bathroom and master ensuite remodels, finished basements, condo and townhome upgrades, home additions, and whole-house renovations, each permitted through Town of Ajax Building Services, built to the Ontario Building Code, and delivered on a fixed-price contract with zero allowances.

At 2026 pricing, full home renovations start at $150 to $250 per square foot for basic updates, and complex gut jobs that replace plumbing, electrical, and HVAC can exceed $500 per square foot. Kitchens, bathrooms, and finished basements are the projects Ajax homeowners ask about most when they want more living space and a stronger resale position, and every scope, from new hardwood or luxury vinyl plank flooring to load-bearing wall removal, is fixed-price quoted before demolition begins.

These are the problems most homeowners face. Our fixed-price design-build model is built to solve them.

Budget Blowouts

Most renovations creep 30% over budget through vague "allowances". We replace estimates with a firm, fixed-price contract, so the number you approve is the number you pay.

Local FAQ

Home Renovation in Ajax: Costs, Permits & Timelines

How much does a home renovation cost in Ajax, Ontario? expand_more
As of 2026, Ajax renovations start at $150 to $250 per square foot for basic updates and can exceed $500 per square foot for complex gut jobs that replace plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. Whole-home modernizations of 1960s to 1990s houses often land between $270,000 and $480,000+. Home Renovation Toronto locks in one fixed price after a detailed pre-construction investigation, with no allowances or mid-project markups.
Do I need a building permit to renovate in Ajax? expand_more
Structural changes, additions, basement second units, and most plumbing or layout changes need a building permit from Town of Ajax Building Services, and the work must meet the Ontario Building Code. Cosmetic updates such as new cabinets, countertops, or flooring usually do not. We prepare the drawings, submit the application, and book each inspection, including ESA electrical sign-off, on your behalf.
Can you finish a basement in Clover Ridge or Lake Tabor? expand_more
Yes. Basement finishing is one of our most requested projects in Ajax, especially in the large, unobstructed basements of 1990s and 2000s homes in Clover Ridge, Lake Tabor, and Audley. We handle waterproofing, insulation, framing, electrical, plumbing, and all finishes to create rec rooms, home offices, and in-law suites on a fixed price.
What is the difference between renovating and remodeling a home? expand_more
A renovation usually refreshes existing rooms with new finishes, fixtures, flooring, and cabinetry while keeping the layout. A remodel changes the structure or layout, such as removing walls for an open-concept main floor or relocating a kitchen or ensuite. Most Ajax projects we build combine both, and both are priced as one fixed contract.
How long does a renovation in Ajax take, and when should I book? expand_more
Construction time depends on scope, so we confirm your schedule during pre-construction planning, after every material and detail is selected. Projects are booked 3 to 4 months in advance so a dedicated crew is reserved for the full build, and free consultations are scheduled within one week of your call to (647) 699-8006.
Which Ajax neighbourhoods do you serve? expand_more
We renovate homes across Ajax, including Central Ajax, Pickering Village, Clover Ridge, Lake Tabor, Audley, and the lakeside streets of south Ajax, with easy crew access via Highway 401. After the job, warranty claims are handled within 2 business days.
