About Grimsby

Grimsby keeps its own records, and its own rules. Here's what the Census 2021 and the Town show.

  • Grimsby is its own town in Niagara Region, not part of the City of Hamilton. It became a village in 1876 and a town in 1922.
  • About 28,900 people lived in Grimsby at the 2021 Census, up 5.7% from 2016 (Statistics Canada).
  • More than four in ten Grimsby homes were built before 1981.
  • Almost one in four homes is a row house.
  • More than eight in ten households own their home.
  • About one in ten homes was built between 2016 and 2021.
  • The Town's register of designated heritage properties runs past 85 entries, many of them along Main Street East and Main Street West.
  • The Town of Grimsby issues its own building permits, online through Cloudpermit. The Town says most construction projects need one. See the Town of Grimsby's building permit page.

Bathroom renovations in Grimsby

The bathroom is older than the kids. Older than us, maybe.

Out come the old tile and fixtures. Whatever's soft or wet behind them gets fixed. Then it goes back together: tub or walk-in shower, tile, vanity, light. Here's how we run bathroom renovations. Done with the tub? We also do tub to shower conversions.

Kitchen renovations

The cabinets are solid. Everything else has to go.

Cabinets, counters, backsplash, lighting and the floor under it all, planned with you at the house. Read how we handle kitchen renovations.

Basement waterproofing for Grimsby homes

Every spring, the same damp corner in the basement.

A damp corner is a clue, not a diagnosis. We look at the walls, the grading and the window wells, find where the water starts, and tell you at the consultation what we'd do. See how we handle basement waterproofing.

Questions we get

Do you do bathroom renovations in Grimsby?

Yes. Albany Contracting Group renovates bathrooms in Grimsby from Hamilton, from a full gut to a tub to shower conversion, along with kitchens and basement waterproofing.

How much does a bathroom renovation in Grimsby cost?

Each bathroom is priced at a free consultation in your home, because the room's size and the fixtures and tile you choose move the price most. We come out, look, then quote. No obligation.

Do the City of Hamilton's permit rules apply in Grimsby?

No. Grimsby is its own town, so the Town of Grimsby's Building Division sets the rules and issues the permits.

Our Grimsby house is on the Town's heritage list. Can you still renovate it?

Often, yes. Under the Ontario Heritage Act, changes to a designated property's protected features need the municipality's consent, so check your by-law with the Town before anything is booked.

Can I send photos of my Grimsby house first?

Yes. Text the photos to (289) 860-0200, say it's a Grimsby house, and we call you back.
