Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between basement remodelling and basement renovation?
Most people think of refurbishment or new start when they think about having a basement renovation done. Remodelling involves changes to an already completed basement, layout alterations, improvements to finishes, and/or the complete re use of the space.
Do I require a basement remodelling permit in Toronto?
It depends on the extent. Permits are needed for structural changes, electrical and plumbing upgrades. Northstones evaluates your project at the start and takes care of all the required applications throughout Toronto and the GTA.
Just how long does it take to remodel a basement?
The time for most basement remodels ranges from 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the structure changes required and the types of finishes chosen.
