Bathroom Renovation Aurora, York Region

Ensuites in newer Aurora

Homes in Bayview Wellington, Aurora Grove and the Hills of St. Andrew often have large ensuites with a corner tub nobody uses. Replacing it with a walk-in shower is a popular change. We check the subfloor, drain location and fan venting before committing to a design.

Character homes near the core

Aurora won the Prince of Wales Prize for Municipal Heritage Leadership in 2008, and homes near Yonge and Wellington show why. Bathrooms in those houses are usually smaller, so we plan storage and fixture sizes carefully and protect original trim where we can.

Plumbing permits

Even when a renovation doesn't need a building permit, the Town of Aurora notes that some plumbing work can need a plumbing permit. Our licensed partner plumber does that work, and we arrange the permit when it applies.
