Project Overview

This project showcases a complete basement underpinning and renovation in Toronto, designed to significantly increase ceiling height and transform an underutilized basement into a bright, functional living space. As an experienced Toronto Renovation Company, Reno Compass began the project with a detailed structural assessment and implemented a staged underpinning and excavation process to ensure safety, stability, and full compliance with Toronto building codes. During the basement lowering phase, soil excavation and foundation reinforcement were carefully executed to allow for increased headroom. Once the underpinning work was completed, the basement renovation phase focused on maximizing usability and comfort. The finished space features an open-concept layout, recessed pot lighting, upgraded staircase design, and durable engineered wood flooring that enhances both brightness and flow. The project also includes a newly built basement bathroom with a bathtub-shower combination, frameless glass enclosure, marble-look wall tiles, and matte black fixtures. The improved ceiling height achieved through underpinning allows for full-size bathroom fixtures and proper ventilation, making the basement suitable for long-term residential use. This project demonstrates the ability of a professional Toronto Renovation Company to manage complex basement underpinning work while delivering a high-quality, modern renovation tailored to Toronto homeowners.
