Basement renovation & repair services in Toronto

Toronto homes come in every era at once: bay-and-gable Victorians in the old city, post-war bungalows further out, and everything in between. Their basements are just as varied — a century semi over a low stone foundation needs different hands than a 1960s bungalow with a full-height lower level, and both need someone who's worked below grade in that kind of building before.

Small lots and older structures mean Toronto basement projects often start with the fundamentals and grow from there — a damp corner becomes a waterproofing job, a dry basement becomes a finished one, and a finished one becomes a legal second suite. Tell us what's under your house, from a musty storage level to a full underpinning and apartment build, and we'll get you a free quote.

• Much of the old city was built before 1940, so knob-and-tube wiring, clay drain pipes and plaster walls still turn up regularly in basement renovations.
• Basement apartments are common across Toronto, and second suites must meet Building and Fire Code requirements.
• Basements in the older neighbourhoods are often low-ceilinged; underpinning or benching to gain height is a frequent first step in a conversion.
