Every renovation is priced around the actual scope of work, so costs vary by project size and finishes. We provide a free, no-obligation in-home consultation and a clear written quote before any work begins, so you know the full cost upfront.

We renovate homes and condos across Toronto, Oshawa, Oakville, Brampton, Mississauga, and North York.

Yes. Raven Reno & Condo is fully licensed, insured, and WSIB-registered, and we manage every trade on your project ourselves rather than subcontracting out to unknown crews.

It depends on the scope. Projects involving structural changes, plumbing, electrical, or basement legalization typically require permits. We handle the permit process for you as part of the renovation.

Timelines depend on scope: a bathroom renovation typically runs two to four weeks, a kitchen three to six weeks, and a full home or basement renovation longer. We give you a project-specific timeline before work starts.

Yes, we offer financing options through Financeit so you can move forward with your renovation without paying the full cost upfront. Ask us about current terms during your consultation.

In most cases, yes. We sequence the work to minimize disruption, though single-bathroom households or major structural projects may require short periods of limited access, which we will walk you through in advance.

Yes. We are experienced with condo board rules, building insurance requirements, and elevator booking, and we help prepare the documentation your board typically requires before work begins.

A member of our team visits your home, discusses your goals and budget, and gives you an honest assessment of scope, timeline, and cost — with no pressure and no obligation to book.

Yes, our renovation work is backed by a workmanship warranty. We will go over the specific coverage for your project during your consultation.

More Common Questions

Do you handle permits for me?
Yes. We manage the permit application and inspection process for any project that requires one, including reviewing requirements under the City of Toronto’s building permit requirements.

Are you insured?
Yes, we are WSIB-registered and fully insured for every project we take on.

How long does a typical renovation take?
Most kitchen and bathroom renovations run 3 to 8 weeks once permits are approved; full home renovations can run several months depending on scope.

Do I need to move out during construction?
Usually not for a single-room renovation. For full home renovations, we will discuss whether staying on-site makes sense for your specific project.

What areas do you serve?
Toronto, Oshawa, Oakville, Brampton, Mississauga, North York, Markham, and Vaughan.

Do you offer financing?
Yes, through our financing partner Financeit, in addition to standard payment options.

Do you offer a warranty on your work?
Yes. Our workmanship is backed by a warranty, and we remain available after project completion if any issues come up.

Can I make changes once the project has started?
Yes, though changes after work begins are priced and confirmed in writing before we proceed, so there are never surprise charges.

Do you clean up after the job is done?
Yes, daily site cleanup is part of every project, and a final deep clean happens before your walkthrough.
