Home renovations in Pickering
Pickering's established neighbourhoods, such as those near the lake and in Bay Ridges and Rosebank, have many side-splits and bungalows built in the 1960s and 70s. These homes sit on generous lots with mature trees, but their split levels, small rooms and dated exteriors can feel tight.
A renovation can open them up and give them a clean, modern look, often far more than owners expect from the house they already have.

02 / IN FOCUSMAJOR RENOVATIONS · PICKERING
Planning a Pickering renovation
Building permits are issued by the City of Pickering. Properties near the lake, creeks or ravines can fall under the TRCA, which matters if the footprint changes. Opening up a split-level often involves structural work, so it is engineered before pricing.

04 / IN FOCUSMAJOR RENOVATIONS · PICKERING
Mature lots, modern homes
Pickering's older neighbourhoods have the large trees and deep lots that newer areas lack. Renovating keeps those trees and that space while giving the house modern rooms, larger windows and better connection to the backyard, which is often the reason owners bought the property in the first place.
