Whole Home Renovations, Start to Finish
One contractor, one schedule, and a design that carries from the front door through every room behind it.

Every Room on One Plan
A whole home renovation is the largest project most homeowners will ever commission, and the one where coordination matters more than any single finish. Ten good rooms designed separately still add up to a house that feels stitched together.
We plan the whole house first: circulation, sightlines, where the flooring changes, which trim profile runs throughout, how the kitchen palette resolves in the adjoining living space. Then we sequence the trades against that plan.
Century homes in Kitchener and Waterloo, 1970s side-splits in Cambridge, and 1990s builds in Guelph each fail in their own way. We assess the structure and services before design work starts, so the plan accounts for what the house actually is.
ONE POINT OF CONTACT
Every Room, One Team, One Schedule
On a whole home renovation the hard part is not any individual room. It is keeping fifteen trades, six delivery dates and four inspections in step while you are still living there. That coordination is the service you are actually buying, and it is what one contract and one project manager are for.
You get one number to call when something changes, rather than chasing the electrician or refereeing a scheduling conflict between suppliers. A whole home project typically runs 3 to 8 months, and you receive a phase-by-phase schedule during planning and a revised one whenever a phase moves.
STRUCTURE & SERVICES
We Assess the House Before We Design It
Whole home projects surface problems that room-by-room work never reaches: aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring, undersized panels, failing cast-iron drains, missing insulation, load paths that make the open plan you want far more expensive than it looked. We survey the electrical, plumbing, HVAC and structure before the drawings are finalized.
Discovering a bearing wall after demolition changes the budget. Discovering it during the assessment changes the drawing instead. When something still surfaces mid-build we stop, photograph it, and send you the options in writing with pricing, and every proposal carries a contingency so a discovery stays a decision.
LIVING ON SITE
Keeping the House Livable While We Work
Most of our whole home clients stay in the house. We phase the work by zone so you always keep a functioning kitchen, a working bathroom and somewhere to sleep, and we seal each zone with real dust containment rather than draping a sheet over the hallway.
Your phase plan shows which rooms are down in which weeks and when each comes back, updated as the job moves. Framing, rough-in and finish are each inspected before the next stage starts, and the job closes on a room-by-room walkthrough with a written list cleared before the final invoice.
