Best Home Renovation in Ancaster, Ontario

Ancaster renovators work the Hamilton side of the Golden Horseshoe, and the 13 home renovation companies in Ontario on this page reach well beyond town. Hamilton and Burlington come up most as places they work, followed by Oakville, Stoney Creek and Dundas. Mikulin Contracting goes further, naming Guelph, Brantford and St. Catharines too.

Showrooms and shops give the trade a physical presence here. Heartwood Renovations runs a showroom on Tradewind Drive, Bashi Homes is on Garner Road West, and The Housecrafters Ltd sells building products from its Ancaster store. The Wright Kitchen focuses on kitchens alone and serves Ancaster, West Hamilton, Dundas, Burlington and Oakville.

Much of the work is kitchens, bathrooms and basements, but the range is wide. Team Shane builds luxury custom homes and also does additional dwelling units and garden suites. Filice Fine Homes builds laneway houses and legal basement apartments. Bashi Homes covers accessible bathrooms. Exterior specialists include The Housecrafters Ltd, with roofing, siding and windows, and SFT Exteriors & Interiors Inc, with roofing, soffit, fascia and eavestroughs.

Older houses are part of the picture. Ambrosio Renovations restores century homes and Filice Fine Homes does heritage home restoration. If a house is a designated heritage property, the owner needs written consent from the municipal council before an alteration likely to affect its protected heritage features, though routine maintenance usually does not need it. A building permit may still apply.

Process matters to how these firms work. Heartwood Renovations handles interior design, millwork and project management in-house, and has a separate Homes by Heartwood line for new builds and structural changes. Ambrosio Renovations has an in-house designer who works with clients on selections and manages permits and inspections as general contractor. EPI Renovations takes each job from initial design to final build, and also finishes basements and entertainment areas. Team Shane starts with architectural design and permit approvals and continues through construction and handover.
