The Annex Home Renovation Contractor

Get A Quick Quote

The Annex is one of Toronto’s most architecturally rich neighbourhoods, filled with century-old semis and grand detached homes, many originally built for large households and later divided into multi-unit rentals near the university. A growing number of Annex homeowners are now converting these properties back into single-family homes, or adding laneway suites and rear additions to fit modern family life.

iRemodel Home Renovation Toronto brings over 20 years of experience working with the Annex’s older housing stock, from full reconversions to targeted kitchen and bathroom upgrades.

Renovation Services We Provide in The Annex

Heritage home restoration — for century homes and heritage-listed properties
Home additions — rear additions, second-storey builds, and laneway suite groundwork
Interior design — reconfiguring converted multi-unit layouts back into cohesive family homes

Local Considerations

Portions of The Annex fall within designated Heritage Conservation Districts, and many properties were subdivided decades ago into rental units with outdated electrical and plumbing systems that need to be brought up to code during a reconversion.

Why Homeowners in The Annex Choose iRemodel

Our in-house licensed electricians, plumbers, and cabinet makers mean fewer subcontractors and better coordination on complex reconversion projects. Every renovation follows Ontario Building Code, uses premium materials, and includes a one-year warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s involved in converting an Annex multi-unit rental back to a single-family home?
It typically involves removing added partition walls, consolidating kitchens and electrical panels, and bringing plumbing and wiring up to current code. We assess the existing conversion first to scope the work accurately.

Is a laneway suite possible on an Annex property?
Often, yes, subject to lot size and laneway access requirements. We can review your property’s eligibility as part of an initial consultation.

What should I check before buying an Annex property I plan to renovate?
Confirm whether the property is within a Heritage Conservation District, review any existing rental conversion permits on file with the City, and have the electrical and plumbing systems inspected, since older multi-unit conversions often have outdated wiring.

Do you offer design services for reconfiguring a converted Annex home?
Yes. Our in-house design team can help plan how to consolidate a divided layout back into a functional single-family home before construction begins.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found iRemodel through Google, and I’m so glad I chose them. He worked on my late mother’s house, which is very sentimental to my sisters and me, so it was important to find someone we could trust. He worked  on the powder room and he was professional, went above and beyond, and stayed in consistent communication throughout the entire process. He was also very punctual. if he said he would arrive at 8 a.m., he was there right on time and always left at a reasonable hour. I truly appreciate the care and respect he showed while working on such a meaningful space. I would highly recommend iRemodel to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful service. I would definitely look forward to working with him again in the future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t be happier with my condo renovation — the transformation is absolutely stunning! From start to finish, the team brought incredible vision, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. They completely reimagined the layout by knocking down a wall to create a spacious, open studio that feels bright, modern, and so much larger than before. The seamless porcelain tile installed throughout the entire unit not only looks beautiful but also makes the space feel cohesive and high-end. One of my favorite upgrades is the newly created space for our washer and dryer — such a smart and functional addition, that added real convenience. They also sealed the kitchen bar to create a more defined separation between the kitchen and living area, which improved both flow and functionality. The fresh white paint brightened everything instantly, and the addition of track lighting in the living room gave the space a clean, contemporary feel while adding warmth and ambiance. Overall the quality of the work was exceptional and communication was smooth throughout the entire project. If you’re looking for a team that delivers beautiful results and truly elevates your space, I highly recommend Dave and his team at iRemodel!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am very content with the renovation of this unit. From the moment you walk in, it’s immediately clear how much care, thought, and craftsmanship went into redoing both the kitchen and the bathroom. The transformation is truly impressive and has elevated the entire space to feel modern, fresh, and incredibly inviting. The kitchen is a standout. Everything feels thoughtfully designed and well executed—from the updated cabinetry and sleek finishes to the overall layout, which now feels both functional and modern. The materials used are clearly high quality, and the attention to detail really shows. It’s the kind of kitchen that not only looks great but also feels practical for everyday use, whether you’re cooking a full meal or just enjoying the space. The updates make it feel contemporary without being overdone, striking a perfect balance between comfort and sophistication. The bathroom renovation is equally impressive. It feels clean, modern, and cozy, with updated fixtures and finishes that give the space a polished, refreshed feel. Everything is brand new, well-installed, and cohesive. The design choices make the bathroom feel more spacious and thoughtfully laid out, and it’s clear that functionality and aesthetics were both top priorities. It’s a space that feels relaxing and well cared for—exactly what you want in a newly renovated bathroom. Overall, this renovation was exceptionally well done. The upgrades to both the kitchen and bathroom significantly enhance the value and livability of the unit, and the quality of the work is evident throughout. It feels like a complete refresh rather than just surface-level updates. Anyone looking to remodel their space will immediately appreciate the effort, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that went into the renovation. Highly recommend—this is a beautifully updated unit that was clearly renovated with care and pride. A job very well done!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just got our bathroom remodeled after a good friend highly recommended iRemodel.  I was hesitant at first but Dave and his crew delivered on time, on budget and the bathroom now looks amazing.  There was minimal dust and the team really paid attention to details.  A couple times there seemed to be issues but the team was so good in making sure to find solution and solved the problem. We were most surprised that the project actually finished on time as promised.  I would highly recommend.  Thanks Dave and team for turning our dark and unwelcoming space into a bright bathroom that the girls now love to use.
