Home Renovations
Whole-home and room-by-room renovations, planned carefully and built to code, from layout changes to final finishes.
A home renovation touches almost every trade: structure, mechanical, electrical, insulation, drywall, flooring and finish carpentry. ControBuild coordinates all of it under one schedule so you are not chasing contractors or guessing who is responsible for what.
We work with homeowners across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area on everything from updating a tired main floor to gutting and rebuilding an older house. Every project starts with a site visit, a written scope and a realistic schedule.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a permit for a home renovation in Toronto?
Many renovations do: structural changes, new openings, additions, and most plumbing, electrical or HVAC changes require permits. We review your plans and tell you what applies before work begins.
Can I live in the house during the renovation?
Often yes, particularly for phased work. We discuss dust control, water and power shut-offs and kitchen or bathroom access during planning so you know what to expect.
How long does a renovation take?
It depends on scope, permits and material lead times. We provide a schedule with your quote and update it honestly if conditions change.
