Yes! Due to the detailed work and investigation that is completed during the design process, when it is time to prepare your Renovation Agreement, we are able to provide you with a Fixed Price Quotation and Payment Schedule. Not only will you know exactly what your renovation will cost, you will know when each payment will be due during the construction process before we pick up a hammer!

For most kitchen renovations, a permit is not required.

However, extensive renovations involving structural or layout alterations, or modifications to plumbing or electrical work might require a permit. Different municipalities have different requirements and procedures. Sometimes it may take 6-8 weeks. If application and drawings are not prepared correctly it may take even longer. Working with an experienced renovation company can help guide you through the permitting process. 

Our team at Axis Renovations is familiar with permitting requirements within Toronto and the GTA. We understand when one is needed, and can streamline the process of obtaining the necessary permits for your project.

As soon as we sign and agree on the Project Development Agreement (PDA) we will put you in queue to start the design with one of our designers.

Once this happens we will be able to give you a much better idea on when we can start. Typically we can start design within 3-4 weeks.

Living in a home that is undergoing renovation can be a challenging experience.

We recommend that you consider moving out, especially if you are renovating the kitchen.

If you do choose to stay in the home during the renovation, it may take longer to complete the project, which will likely result in additional costs.

However, we understand that sometimes it’s not possible to move out. We will make everything possible to minimize the impact on your daily routine.

A Zip-wall system that isolates the renovated areas and HEPA filter are just some of the things that we can do to help minimize the inconveniences. 

We have renovated many homes with people living in them and many of them said that they actually enjoyed the experience.

We usually divide each project into 5 to 7 milestones spaced in time equally. A milestone could be a completion of structural framing or start of drywall installation, start of flooring installation or cabinetry.

A progress payment is due as we reach a milestone. This way our clients pay only as they see the progress, never paying big sums upfront.

All our renovation agreements have clear Payment Schedules explaining when and how much would need to be paid.

It depends on whether we need to have a Building Permit and on when you authorize renovation agreement. We usually Pre-book your project in our Construction Schedule as soon as we decide to work together on designing your project and authorize Project Development Agreement (PDA).

Once you sign the Project Development Agreement (PDA), we will schedule you to begin the design process, which typically takes 2-3 months.

Afterward, we will consolidate all of our numbers and present you with the Renovation Agreement (RA), which will include a construction start and completion dates.

The construction phase of the main and second floor renovation typically lasts 3-4 months.

The entire house renovation and additions may last 4 to 6 months.
