What Renovations Really Cost in South Georgian Bay

These ranges come straight from our public planning guidance: kitchens typically run $50,000–$150,000+, bathrooms start around $20,000, basement finishing runs $65–$150+ per square foot, and whole-home renovations span $150,000–$750,000+ depending on how far the transformation goes.

The honest caveat every contractor should give you: renovation budgets live or die on what's behind the walls. Older homes around Wasaga Beach, Collingwood, and Clearview often carry outdated wiring, plumbing that needs replacing, and structure that was never designed for open-concept living. Our open-book, cost-plus process exists precisely for this — hidden conditions get priced at actual cost with your approval, never buried in a padded allowance.

Use the range this tool gives you as a reality check before you fall in love with a scope. Then have the real conversation — a site visit costs you nothing and replaces guesswork with numbers you can plan around.

Calculator questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is this renovation cost calculator?
It applies the same market planning ranges we quote publicly — kitchens $50K–$150K+, bathrooms from $20K, basements $65–$150+ per square foot, whole-home renovations $150K–$750K+ — to your selections. Older homes routinely hide conditions no calculator can see, which is why our real budgets are built after an on-site assessment.
Why are renovation ranges so wide?
Because scope drives everything: whether walls move, what is found behind them, cabinetry and surface quality, and how much plumbing and electrical must be brought to current code. The finish-level selector narrows the range, but only a scoped assessment produces a number you can commit to.
Do you take on small renovation projects?
We focus on substantial renovations — kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and whole-home transformations that involve structure, permits, and multiple trades. We are not a handyman or small-repair service, and we do not typically take on insurance claim work.
How do I get a real renovation quote?
Book a free initial conversation. We visit your home, assess the existing conditions, and build an open-book, cost-plus budget where you see the actual cost of every trade and material — no allowance games, no surprises when the walls open.
