Vaughan Home Renovations, Basements & Home Additions
Home Renovation Toronto is a licensed and insured general contractor and design-build home remodeler that has delivered home renovation in Vaughan since 1996. Our crews renovate residential homes of every size, with kitchen renovations, basement finishing and legal secondary suites, master ensuite and bathroom remodels, home additions, and whole-house renovations, each permitted through the City of Vaughan Building Standards Department and built on a fixed-price contract with zero allowances.
At 2026 pricing, full home renovations start at $150 to $250 per square foot, and complex gut jobs that replace plumbing, electrical, and HVAC can exceed $500 per square foot. Every Vaughan scope is fixed-price quoted and fully permitted before demolition begins.
From builder-grade detached homes in Woodbridge, Maple, and Vellore Village to Kleinburg heritage streets, Thornhill semi-detached homes, and Concord townhomes, one project manager runs your renovation from interior design to final clean-up with no handoffs.
Outgrown Your Builder-Grade Home? Renovate, Don't Move
These are the problems most homeowners face. Our fixed-price design-build model is built to solve them.
Budget Blowouts
Most renovations creep 30% over budget through vague "allowances". We replace estimates with a firm, fixed-price contract, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
Outgrown, Outdated Layouts
Cramped, closed-off rooms make a home you love feel like one you have outgrown. Our design-build team reworks the floor plan around how your family actually lives today.

Why Families from Kleinburg to Thornhill Hire Us
Home Renovation in Vaughan: Permits, Access & Logistics
Vaughan's suburban street grid and wider lots make site access, bin placement, and material deliveries straightforward. Our crews reach Woodbridge, Maple, Kleinburg, Concord, and the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre via Highway 400, Highway 407, and Major Mackenzie Drive, and one project manager schedules and supervises every trade, from framers and plumbers to electricians, HVAC technicians, and finishers, so subcontractors never sit idle or overlap.
Renovations here are permitted through the City of Vaughan Building Standards Department rather than the City of Toronto, with its own submission requirements and inspection schedule under the Ontario Building Code. We prepare the drawings, file the applications, and book every inspection. On properties inside the Kleinburg-Nashville or Woodbridge Heritage Conservation Districts, or on Humber River valley lots regulated by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA), we confirm those approvals before design is finalized so a project never stalls partway through.
Builder-Grade Detached Homes & Basements We Know Well
Much of Vaughan's housing stock is detached and semi-detached homes built from the 1990s through the 2010s in Woodbridge, Maple, Vellore Village, Patterson, and Sonoma Heights. These homes have generous square footage but often came with builder-grade kitchens, laminate countertops, standard cabinetry, and large unfinished basements that now feel dated or underused.
That is why basement finishing and kitchen modernization are our most requested Vaughan projects. Basement renovations range from a rec room and home office to an in-law or legal secondary suite built to the Ontario Building Code, often for multi-generational families. Kitchen upgrades typically swap laminate for Caesarstone quartz and add ceiling-height custom cabinetry, while the larger lots in Kleinburg and Thornhill suit rear home additions. Homeowners from Vaughan and Maple appear in our video testimonial library confirming on-time, on-budget delivery.
