Our Services

We provide several basement renovation services in Ajax. They include:

Basement Renovation

Renovating your basement is an investment opportunity that offers numerous benefits including improving functionality, updating style, and increasing the value of your home.

If you ever intend on selling, you will have a competitive advantage over other homes for sale that have an unfinished basement. In addition, if you decide to repurpose your renovated basement into a legal second suite, then you can take advantage of a potential additional source of income.

Basement Apartment

When we make the transformation from an ordinary basement to a basement apartment, there are a few important aspects we prioritize. We ensure your basement apartment adheres to Ajax-specific construction codes and regulations. Additionally, our contractors will make sure the space is adequately lit, that electrical cables and pipes are laid carefully, and if necessary, that basement underpinning is performed to increase the ceiling height.

At RenoDuck, our experts are knowledgeable regarding these requirements and will work tirelessly to ensure your basement apartment is up to acceptable standards. One of the greatest benefits of having a basement apartment is the extra source of income you can generate from renting out the unit to paying tenants.

Basement Walkout

Installing a basement walkout not only adds convenience but will increase the value of your property. Basement walkouts are also important safety additions as they serve as an alternative exit in the event of an emergency.

What’s more, is that a basement walkout is an essential feature if you plan on renting out your basement space. The last thing you want is for your tenants to have to enter your main living space every time they want to leave the house.

How to Use the Extra Space

Finished basements are versatile spaces that can be designed to function in numerous ways.

Some of the most popular basement ideas include:

  • Man cave: This is when the basement is designed to the taste of the man of the house. In a man cave, the space will be used as a personal area for hobbies and leisure activities. Our designers will collaborate with you to plan for space that can accommodate typical items such as a wide-screen television, surround sound system, comfortable seating, pool table, video game system, and bar stools.
  • Personalized gym: There are many advantages in renovating your basement to include a personalized gym. For instance, the convenience of saving time from not having to physically leave your house to go to a gym elsewhere, you do not have to share equipment with any strangers and have the privacy and comfort you need to work out how and when you want.
  • Home office: Ajax homeowners love the idea of converting their basement into a home office to increase productivity and save time and money. By using the coziness of your own four walls, you too can create the ideal workspace with additions such as sound-insulating walls, windows, light fixtures, and more!
  • Basement Kitchen: Using your extra space to create a basement kitchen is increasingly becoming more popular amongst Ajax residents. Installing all the kitchen necessities including a refrigerator, microwave, countertops, cabinets, and electrical and plumbing connections means you can cook and entertain for parties and gatherings without invading the main living area of your home. Not to mention basement kitchens add value to your home too.
  • Basement Theatre: There is nothing like coming home after a long workday and having a dedicated cozy space to sit back, relax, and watch a movie on your own big-screen TV.  You want to ensure your basement home theatre is as comfortable and functional as possible. Determine the size of your design, and how you wish to soundproof the space, and keep your budget in mind when selecting the screen, seating, speakers, and additional accessories.
  • Basement apartment: If you decide to repurpose your extra space into a basement apartment, RenoDuck is here to help with this basement makeover. Our experienced team complies with local building codes and by-laws, ensuring there is a kitchen or bar, an accessible bathroom, and proper windows.
  • Basement Sauna: Installing an indoor sauna in your basement saves on living space, creates a haven away from the rest of the home, and ensures privacy when you use the sauna. A sauna should not be installed in your basement if there is a problem with dampness or if your basement floor is not levelled. We will be sure to measure the area you have chosen for your sauna before installing. This way, we will avoid installing a sauna that is too large or the wrong shape for the space.
