Home Renovations in Oshawa, ON

Room by room, done right.

Around Simcoe Street, renovated houses sit next to semis that haven't been touched in decades. If yours is one of the untouched ones, the question is how far to take the update. We take on home renovations in Oshawa at a mid-sized scale: bathroom remodels, kitchen updates, basement finishing and room makeovers. With 16 years in construction behind him, Pedro can manage every stage, without a big company's overhead.

Bathroom Updates for Oshawa's Mid-Century Bungalows

A bathroom update is one of the things Oshawa's mid-century bungalows usually need. The rooms are compact, so the gains come from smarter choices: a tiled surround or walk-in shower in place of a tired tub, a vanity with real storage, better lighting and a fan that actually clears the steam. We'll help you decide where the money goes furthest in a small room. A bathroom renovation typically runs $5,000 to $15,000 depending on scope.

Older south-end homes hide things. Open a wall and you might find old plumbing, framing that's been cut for past changes, or water damage that's been out of sight for years. Pedro's inspection work taught him to expect that, so before demo starts he talks through what might turn up, and the estimate and the schedule aren't built on wishful thinking. Nothing about the scope changes without your OK.

Kitchens date a house faster than any other room, and in Oshawa's 70s, 80s and 90s subdivisions they're often the giveaway. Not every update needs a new layout. New counters, painted cabinets, a backsplash and new fixtures cost $5,000 to $12,000 and change the room without moving plumbing. Once walls or the sink move, a full kitchen renovation starts around $15,000.

Pedro handles bathroom remodels, kitchen refreshes and room renovations. For how he approaches home renovations in general, see our home remodeling & renovation page.

Home Renovations in Oshawa: FAQ

Do you offer home renovations in Oshawa?

Can you redo the only bathroom in my Oshawa bungalow?

Yes, with some planning on your end. A cosmetic refresh takes about 3 to 5 days, and a full gut and rebuild takes 1 to 2 weeks, depending on scope. We'll tell you upfront which days the room will be completely out of service, so you can line up a backup, like staying with family for the roughest stretch.

Our house in north Oshawa has an unfinished basement. What does finishing it cost?

Basement finishing generally starts around $20 to $40 per square foot, depending on the level of finish. A simple open rec room with drywall, flooring and lighting sits toward the lower end; a bathroom, built-ins or higher-end materials push it up. Pedro will measure the space and give you a written estimate broken down by phase, so you can see where the money goes.
