Check out the Astaneh Construction Price Guide page for more information.

One of the best ways to assess renovation contractors’ quality of work is to look at their past and present projects. You can do this by visiting their active or completed construction sites. You can visit a project at any stage (whether it’s demolition, framing, or drywalling) and assess the quality of their workmanship. How a renovation contractor handles one job shows how they handle all jobs. You can also take a look at the Astaneh Construction portfolio to see finished projects in Toronto and Greater Toronto Area.

Home renovation costs are based on a variety of factors, including size, scope, customization, labour rates, materials used, and project complexity. To budget for your renovation, you’ll need to account for each factor. Additionally, we recommend allocating up to 20% of your budget to a contingency fund for unexpected costs. Learn more about renovation budgeting by exploring the Astaneh Construction Price Guide.

Relocating during a renovation may be necessary if the project involves major structural, plumbing, and/or electrical work. If this is the case, you might consider staying in a hotel, with family, at an Airbnb, or with friends. However, if you’re having minor renovations performed, such as replacing flooring, repainting walls, or replacing cabinetry, you may be able to stay in your home throughout the renovation with minimal disruptions.

You may be able to claim up to $7,500 on your income tax and benefit return as part of Canada’s Multigenerational Home Renovation Tax Credit. This credit covers certain expenses for the creation of a self-contained secondary unit within your home. In order to qualify, this unit must be built for an adult or senior who receives the Canadian disability tax credit.

Yes. We can start with a review of your lot, goals and any existing drawings. Zoning, site access, servicing and the condition of an existing house all help determine the next steps for a new build.

A new house requires a building permit. The application includes drawings and information about the site, structure and proposed home, with other approvals depending on the property. Renovations and additions have their own permit requirements based on the work. Our team coordinates the drawings and applications within the agreed project scope.

Ontario’s statutory new-home warranty is provided by the builder and backed by Tarion. Coverage includes one year for defects in work and materials, two years for specified issues such as water penetration and defects in electrical, plumbing and heating distribution systems, and seven years for major structural defects. Limits and exclusions apply.

No. Our renovation work carries a one-year workmanship warranty after completion. Tarion’s statutory new-home coverage is a separate program and should not be assumed to cover an ordinary renovation or addition.

Yes. Share the plans and any approvals you already have, and we can review the proposed scope with you and your design team. We can also coordinate drawings and permit support if your project is at an earlier stage.

The decision depends on what the existing house and lot can support, the space you need and the budget for the work. A renovation may resolve layout and systems issues, an addition can create more room, and a custom rebuild allows you to plan a new house. We can discuss these options at the first property visit.

Yes. Our pre-purchase consultation helps you explore renovation or rebuilding potential and preliminary costs. It does not replace a home inspection, engineering assessment, property valuation, legal advice or municipal approval.
