Ontario Renovation Company

Renovations made for the way Orangeville lives.

Orangeville is the main town in Dufferin County, with a historic Broadway downtown, older homes nearby, family neighbourhoods built from the 1970s on, and rural properties in neighbouring Mono and Amaranth.

We work across Orangeville at the headwaters of the Credit River in Dufferin County, in older downtown homes, established family homes and rural properties. The projects we are asked about most here are kitchen and bathroom renovations, basement finishing and secondary suites, and decks.

Investment

What shapes the price of a renovation in Orangeville

Every house is different, so every project is quoted in writing after a visit. These are the factors that move the number.

Scope & size

How many rooms, how much square footage, and whether it is a refresh or a full gut.

Layout changes

Moving walls, plumbing or gas lines costs more than keeping the existing layout.

Structure

Load-bearing walls, beams, foundations and additions need engineering and permits.

Materials & finishes

Cabinets, counters, tile, flooring and fixtures range widely in price.

Condition of the house

Old wiring, plumbing, water damage or uneven floors found along the way.

Permits & drawings

Projects that need drawings, permits and inspections take more time and planning.

Home Renovations in Orangeville: Kitchens, Bathrooms, Basements and More

Century and heritage homes in Orangeville

Orangeville's older homes, many built before the Second World War, have character worth keeping and systems that usually are not: knob-and-tube or early wiring, plaster and lath walls, stone or block foundations, and framing that is rarely square. We open these houses carefully, test for asbestos and lead paint before demolition, and plan for what is behind the walls instead of pretending it will not be there.

1970s to 1990s family homes in Orangeville

Homes built in Orangeville from the 1970s to the 1990s are reaching their first full renovation: original oak kitchens, tub-and-tile bathrooms, sunken living rooms and windows at the end of their life. Some of these houses also have materials worth checking before work starts, such as aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s and 1970s or poly-B plumbing installed from the late 1970s to the late 1990s.

Rural homes on well and septic in Orangeville

Rural properties around Orangeville bring their own considerations. Homes on a private septic system and well need the system checked before adding bedrooms, bathrooms or a second unit, because more bedrooms means more daily flow, and a septic system has to be sized for it. Larger lots give more room for additions and outdoor space.

Kitchen Renovations in Orangeville

Kitchens in Orangeville come in every shape, from the closed-off galley kitchens in older houses to builder-grade kitchens in newer homes that never quite worked. With older downtown homes, established family homes and rural properties across Downtown Orangeville, Mono and Amaranth, there is no single template, so every kitchen remodel we plan here starts with the room in front of us.

We handle the whole Orangeville kitchen remodel as one project: demolition, any wall removal or structural work, plumbing and electrical by licensed trades, cabinets, counters, backsplash, flooring and paint, in the right order and on a written schedule.

Bathroom Renovations in Orangeville

Many bathrooms in Orangeville are original to the house, and in older downtown homes, established family homes and rural properties that can mean anything from a tired 1970s three-piece to a builder-grade ensuite with a tub nobody uses. A bathroom remodel is one of the best-value updates in the home, as long as the work behind the tile is done properly.

Every Orangeville bathroom we build gets a continuous waterproofing membrane, a properly sloped shower base and an exhaust fan sized for the room, with plumbing by licensed trades and tile set flat and true.

Basement Finishing in Orangeville

In Orangeville, a finished basement is one of the most requested projects we quote, especially in older downtown homes, established family homes and rural properties. Families in Downtown Orangeville, Mono and Amaranth use that space for a rec room, an office, a gym or a guest suite instead of moving to get more room.

Every Orangeville basement we finish starts with a moisture check, then proper foundation insulation, framing, electrical and plumbing, drywall, below-grade flooring and lighting, with egress windows wherever a bedroom is planned.

Legal Basement Apartments in Orangeville

Demand for legal basement apartments in Orangeville is strong, whether for rental income, a parent moving closer or a young adult who wants their own space. Many older downtown homes, established family homes and rural properties in Downtown Orangeville, Mono and Amaranth have basements well suited to a secondary suite.

Secondary suites in Orangeville are approved by the Town of Orangeville, which sets its own zoning, parking and entrance rules on top of the Ontario Building Code and Fire Code. We check what your lot allows, coordinate drawings and the permit, then build the suite and book inspections through to final sign-off.

Home Additions in Orangeville

In Orangeville, an addition is often the answer for families who love their street in Downtown Orangeville and Mono but have outgrown the house. With older downtown homes, established family homes and rural properties, rear additions, second storeys and main-floor suites are all common.

Accessible Renovations in Orangeville

Many Orangeville homeowners want to stay in the neighbourhood they know, in Downtown Orangeville, Mono and Amaranth and beyond, and the right changes to the bathroom, entrances and main floor make that safer and easier.

Renovating in South Simcoe & Dufferin

Fast growth in South Simcoe and Dufferin means many newer homes with unfinished basements and builder-grade kitchens and bathrooms, alongside older homes in the historic town cores.
