Closet & Shelving Installation in Bobcaygeon, ON

Storage for Places That Fill Up Every Summer

Bobcaygeon's population swells well past its roughly 3,500 full-time residents between May and October, and much of that summer crowd stays in cottages, some of which weren't built with a full house in mind. A two-bedroom place that sleeps eight on a long weekend needs somewhere for duffel bags, beach towels and extra bedding. A few well-placed shelves in a closet or hallway can do more than adding furniture to rooms that are already tight.

Closing up brings a different storage need. Cushions, spare bedding and beach towels have to go somewhere dry for the winter, ideally up off the floor where damp and mice can't get at them as easily. Shelving in a utility room, back hall or garage keeps it all sorted, so opening day isn't a hunt. Garage shelving and workbench installs typically cost $300 to $800, and basic wire shelving runs $100 to $300 per closet.

In a cottage that's damp in the shoulder seasons, materials matter. Wire and ventilated shelving lets air move around stored linens. Custom shelving in solid wood looks better in a bedroom closet, but it should have a sealed finish if the room gets humid. Custom wood organizer systems run $400 to $1,500, with size and design setting the price. Whatever the material, it goes into studs and never relies on drywall anchors alone.
