The young town: most houses here are this century's

Milton's houses are younger than Oakville's or Burlington's, and the numbers show it. From the public record:

The old town is smallOnly 5.4% of homes were built in 1960 or before. (Statistics Canada, 2021 Census)
It grew by a fifth in five yearsMilton had 132,979 people in 2021, up 20.7% from 2016. (Statistics Canada, 2021 Census)
Owners, mostly, in houses, mostly82.6% of households own their home, and 56.7% of homes are single-detached. (Statistics Canada, 2021 Census)
Finishing any part of a basement needs a building permitThe Town also wants a site plan if you add a bedroom or a new window or door opening. (Town of Milton, Finished Basements)
New subdivisions have an extra step for decksIf the Town hasn't assumed your subdivision yet, the builder must give you a developer's clearance letter before a deck permit is issued. (Town of Milton, Decks)
Water away from the wallsThe Town's flood advice says to grade the lot away from the foundation and run downspouts at least 2 metres from basement walls. (Town of Milton, Flooding Information)

Bathroom renovations in Milton: it's fine, it's just the builder's bathroom

Nothing's broken. It's the same tile, tub and vanity as every other house on the street. The shower you wanted didn't make the builder's list.

Our bathroom renovations take the room down to what's solid and build it back the way you'd have chosen: a walk-in shower or a better tub, tile, vanity, fixtures, light.

Basement finishing: the basement is still bare concrete

A lot of new houses come with a basement that's a furnace, a laundry tub and a lot of empty floor. It could be a family room, an office or a guest room.

We do basement renovations, including egress windows that meet Ontario building code requirements. The Town needs a permit before any part of a basement is finished, so plan for that from the start. If there's any water down there, we deal with it first through basement waterproofing.

Home renovations in Milton, inside and out

Some jobs are on the outside: a front porch with stone and better steps, or a deck out the back. Some are inside: a kitchen that fits how you cook. Either way it's one general contractor and one free consultation. See our front porch rebuilds and our kitchen renovations.

Questions we get

Do you do renovations in Milton?

Yes. Albany Contracting Group is based in Hamilton and does bathroom renovations, basement finishing, porches and other home renovations in Milton. The consultation is at your house, and it's free.

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Milton?

Every bathroom renovation is priced at a free in-home consultation, because the room's size and finishes change the price most. We see the room first.

Do I need a permit to finish my basement in Milton?

Yes. The Town of Milton requires a building permit before any portion of a basement is finished. It also wants a site plan if you add a bedroom or new exterior openings.

Our house is only a few years old. Is it too soon to renovate?

No. Plenty of renovations in a newer house aren't repairs: they're the bathroom, basement or porch the builder didn't do the way you wanted. If the Town hasn't assumed your subdivision yet, ask the builder early, because a deck permit needs their clearance letter.
