Renovation and Repair Costs

Renovattion Tips

Planning a home renovation or been wondering how much it's going to cost to get that aging roof replaced? Well the Ontario Contractors web site is a good place to start. Here you have a data base of contractors and a range of prices for the following areas:
  1. Roofing and Flashing
  2. Roofing (material and labour)
  3. Flashing
  4. Chimneys
  5. Gutters and Downpipes
  6. Fascia, Soffit and Exterior Trim - Supply and installed
  7. Exterior Finishes
  8. Structure Modifications and Renovations
  9. Interior Renovations
  10. Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC)
  11. Electrical
  12. Plumbing
  13. Insulation
The prices are intended to give you a rough idea of the amount you will need to budget for some common home renovation projects and repairs. These estimates are approximations intended for informational purposes only - they may vary by area. As with anything, it's always a good idea to get at least three quotes.
