Mimico's Most Trusted General Contractor | Expert Home & Condo Renovations

We renovate Mimico’s full range of housing: 1920s-1950s bungalows and cottages, semi-detached homes, lakefront estates, low-rise apartment buildings from the 1950s-60s, modern townhomes, and high-rise condos throughout Humber Bay Shores. Our teams are experienced with each property type’s unique requirements.

Most structural changes, electrical upgrades, plumbing modifications, and HVAC work require City of Toronto building permits. Minor cosmetic updates like painting and flooring typically don’t need permits. For older Mimico homes, electrical work often requires ESA (Electrical Safety Authority) coordination, especially when addressing knob-and-tube wiring or panel upgrades. We handle all permit applications.

We prepare complete application packages including scope of work, contractor insurance certificates, WSIB clearance, project timelines, and any required engineering drawings. Different buildings have different requirements—Palace Pier, Grand Harbour, and newer developments each have specific processes. We’ve secured approvals across Mimico’s waterfront towers and understand what each board requires.

Yes. Many Mimico homes built in the 1920s-1950s have knob-and-tube wiring, which insurers often require to be replaced. Older plumbing may include galvanized pipes that need updating. Some properties along Mimico Avenue fall under heritage designation, requiring additional approval processes. We assess these conditions during our initial consultation and factor them into your quote.

Toronto noise bylaws restrict construction to 7am-7pm on weekdays and 9am-7pm on Saturdays in residential areas. Most Humber Bay Shores condo buildings have stricter rules, typically limiting work to 9am-5pm weekdays only. Some buildings prohibit weekend work entirely. We coordinate schedules with your property management to ensure full compliance.

Yes. Properties at 78, 80, and 86 Mimico Avenue and other heritage-designated locations require Heritage Impact Assessments for significant alterations. We understand the Mimico 20/20 Revitalization guidelines and work with Heritage Planning to ensure renovations preserve cultural heritage value while meeting your modern living needs.

Yes. Many Mimico cottages and bungalows require electrical upgrades—from complete knob-and-tube removal to panel upgrades from 60-100 amps to 200 amps for modern needs like EV chargers and heat pumps. We coordinate all City of Toronto electrical permits and ESA inspections as part of our service.

Mimico kitchen renovations typically range from $35,000-$75,000 for mid-range projects and $75,000-$150,000+ for high-end renovations. Humber Bay Shores condo kitchens often cost less due to smaller footprints but may require additional soundproofing or fire separation upgrades. We provide detailed quotes based on your specific layout, materials, and design goals.

Mimico bathroom renovations typically range from $15,000-$25,000 for budget updates, $25,000-$45,000 for mid-range remodels, and $45,000-$75,000+ for high-end transformations. Humber Bay Shores condo bathrooms often fall on the lower end due to smaller square footage, though some buildings require additional waterproofing or plumbing stack coordination. Older Mimico homes from the 1920s-1950s may need updated plumbing or subfloor repairs, which can increase the overall investment. We provide detailed quotes based on your specific layout and finish selections.

Mimico basement renovations typically range from $30,000-$50,000 for basic finishes, $50,000-$80,000 for mid-range projects with a bathroom, and $80,000-$120,000+ for high-end spaces with wet bars, home theatres, or legal secondary suites. Older Mimico homes often require additional waterproofing, underpinning for ceiling height, or electrical panel upgrades that can impact the final cost. We provide detailed quotes based on your basement size, layout, and intended use.
