Home and Room Renovations
From one room to the whole house, one team plans, manages and finishes the work.
Home and Room Renovations in Toronto and across Ontario
Not every project is a full gut. Some homeowners want one room done properly, others want to renovate floor by floor over a few years, and some are ready to transform the whole house at once.
We take on all of it: bedrooms, living rooms, home offices, stairs, flooring, drywall, trim, lighting and paint, through to whole-home renovations that change layouts and upgrade wiring, plumbing and insulation. Small jobs get the same written scope, protection of your home and clean finish as large ones.
Harborline Sterling Construction Inc. is principal-led. One of our co-founders, Mansoor Alam Khan or Maqsood Mohammed, oversees every project, so decisions get made quickly and you always know who is accountable.
What home and room renovations includes
Every project is different, but these are the parts of the work we take responsibility for.
Single-room renovations
Bedrooms, living and family rooms, home offices, nurseries and laundry rooms, renovated without disturbing the rest of the house.
Whole-home renovations
Layout changes, new kitchens and bathrooms, and upgrades to wiring, plumbing, heating and insulation, phased so you know exactly what happens when.
Floors, walls and ceilings
Hardwood, engineered, vinyl and tile flooring, drywall and plaster repairs, pot lights, ceilings, trim and doors.
Stairs and railings
Refinished or replaced stairs, new treads, and glass, metal or wood railings built to Building Code guard and handrail requirements.

Replacement of outdated wiring and plumbing, added insulation, and testing for asbestos before suspect materials are disturbed.

Do you take on small jobs, like one room?
Yes. A single room gets the same written scope, care for your home and finish quality as a full renovation.
Can we stay in the house during a whole-home renovation?
Often, by phasing the work and keeping a kitchen and bathroom usable. For the heaviest phases, such as major structural or system work, some families stay elsewhere for a while. We plan it with you.
Will an older home have surprises?
Sometimes. Older homes can hide outdated wiring, old plumbing, settled framing, or asbestos in materials such as vermiculite insulation and old floor tiles. We investigate before pricing and raise anything unexpected right away, with options and costs.
Do I need a permit?
Cosmetic work such as flooring, painting and cabinetry usually does not need one. Removing or adding walls, moving doors and windows, or changing plumbing, heating or structure usually does.
Can you help with design?
Yes. We can plan layouts and finishes with you, and bring in an architect, designer or engineer where the project calls for one.
