Hi,
I have a land with 175 X 185 ft dimensions in Mississauga. The land has a 2 bedroom home in it. I am planning on building a Townhouse-Condo complex on the back of my land, where the front of the lot facing the street will have the existing home and 2 new detached houses to preserve the character of the street and the back of the lot will have a row of 10 townhouses.
Currently the land is zoned as R3. I am looking for a builder who can become a one stop shop for me to complete the design, provide cost estimates, apply for re-zoning from the city and get all necessary approvals and complete the build.
Here is what I am looking for:
1. Build 10 Townhouse-Condo units in a row, each with 1600-2000 sft of living space (excluding basement).
2. Build 2 detached houses, each with 2000 sft.
3. All inclusive service, including the roadways, sidewalks, fencing etc.
Please respond with your initial quote and a list of prior projects similar to the one listed above.
Thanks

I am looking to do a small renovation in my condo. The plan is to turn a walk-in closet into a small workspace. This would require moving 2 doors and relocating several outlets and light switches. We would also welcome insight taking our plans to the condo board.
Get in contact if a job of this scale is something you would help with.
1220 sq ft traditional style condo in the Kingsway, 17 years old building.
I want to open up the living dining and kitchen area which would require removing a (dry) wall. Relpace wall to wall broadloom with hardwood floors throughout the entire unit where existing carpet is. Paint the entire apartment. Replace bathrooms and kitchen.
I want to convert my existing garage to the living space. It is an attached garage with one car parking on a typical 1950-60s Etobicoke bungalow. There is an attic with some storage space above the garage.
Dimensions of the garage:
Width: 117"
Length: 236"
I also want a small powder room/ washroom in the garage.
There is a garden hose right outside garage.
Is it allowed and can you arrange the permits?
How long will the permits take?
How long will it take to build?
What would be the total cost? What would it cost with and without washroom?
It is important you tell me a rough estimate of the cost involved and if it can be done (I have not seen any on my street).
Thank you,
Ashish

I have an older single car garage in Etobicoke.. detached.
It appears that it might be leaning VERY very slight...So I decided to Repair instead of tear down. All materials inside (2x4) trusses and roof are in excellent shape)
The siding is wood and in bad shape.
I need to Brace it by putting 4 Corner posts on the inside of the garage in all 4 corners.
6X6 posts and tie it in to the corner double 4x4's.
Then raise the roof which will add one foot to bring it to the same height as the neighbours garage beside it.
Raising the roof will add Approx 14 inches height to it by adding a few 4X4 or other material as you guys see fit
Also redo the siding since its bad and needs done
The floor is the old asphalt floor which is not that great but for now until I decide will stay as is (unless I can get a good deal on a slab on grade) .
Because of city code etc and zoning I don't want to do the new garage project..
Can you guys give me an estimate for this?
Garage is 11X14
Thanks

I live in a typical Toronto bungalow. We have a room behind the garage with a flat rooftop that was added to the house at some later date. When we bought the house, it was sold as a bedroom, but is unusable and gets very cold during winters.
To achieve a flat roof and save money, the previous owners dropped the floor of the room by about 8-9 inches. Since it a corner room it is exposed from all sides. And the flat roof probably does not have proper insulation as well.
The wall that opens at the backyard has a big wall-to-wall window with a sliding glass door, which while gives a great view and access to the backyard, it becomes literally a cold storage during winters.
The only way we can use this room as a proper bedroom and not as a passage to the backyard, is probably to remove the glass window at the back and have a proper wall there (while keeping one glass door for easy access to backyard).
We want to properly insulate the room so that we can use it as a bedroom during winters as well. And if possible still can have an access and good view at backyard.
What would be the cost for this project and how long will it take?
Our project is to relocate rooms in our small bungalow. The layout now: bedroom in front of the house (close to front door), living room and (4pc. ) washroom in the middle of the house and kitchen and small room at the back of the house.
Would like layout:
Open concept: relocating the living room to the front of the house open concept with kitchen in the middle and making existing kitchen and small room the main bedroom at the back of the house . Create closets (as there is only one in the house). We would also like to move the washroom close to the back if possible maybe change to a 2pc. open to ideas. The house is approx. 50 years old.
We are looking for a contractor as well as an online approx. estimate for this project.
