Basement Renovation & Finishing in Mississauga

Simple open-concept finishes take less time, while full basement apartment builds with separate entrances and plumbing take longer. RenoHouse provides a detailed timeline during consultation.

These changes transform a generic builder kitchen into a custom-looking space at a fraction of full renovation cost.
