Kitchen Renovations
Our budget-friendly kitchen renovation option involves a comprehensive overhaul where we replace all existing elements with new ones.
The renovation we commonly undertake involves rearranging the current layout, such as relocating or adding cabinetry, appliances, and fixtures.
Our final choice is a structural renovation, which encompasses layout changes and the addition or removal of walls, windows, and doors.
Home Additions
Home additions can involve adding a second or third floor, often referred to as a "home top-up addition," extending the first floor, building a kitchen and family room at the back of the house, or expanding the front to enlarge the foyer and include a powder room.
Reconfiguring other areas of the home is also part of the home addition process. This can include creating an open-concept layout or subdividing spaces for more formal and private areas.
Basement Renovation
Many budget-conscious clients and growing families need their basements to be more functional than before. This might include adding an in-law suite, a multi-generational suite, space for teenagers, music rooms, second kitchens, and home offices.
Other clients seek extra rental income and turn to us to transform their basements into highly functional, high-quality rental units and Airbnb properties.
We are experts in waterproofing, underpinning, sump pumps, drains, backflow preventers/backwater valves, basement walkouts, basement insulation, heated floors, and future-proofing your home.
Bathroom Renovations
Our bathroom renovation services mirror our offerings for kitchens. A complete overhaul, where all existing elements are replaced with new ones, constitutes a standard makeover.
For bathroom reconfiguration, we handle projects involving fixture relocation, such as changing the toilet's position or replacing a bathtub with an expanded shower area.
In structural bathroom renovations, we tackle more extensive changes like adding or removing walls to optimize functionality. This could include installing a double vanity and a separate water closet with a spacious two-person shower, integrating a steam shower, or incorporating a luxurious soaker tub.
1st Floor/2nd Floor Renovation
Homeowners appreciate our renovation expertise and design excellence when updating their first and second floors. First-floor renovations typically involve modernizing the space by adding features like a powder room, family room, mudroom, foyer, and home office. To maintain a cohesive design, we are often asked to renovate the second floor as well.
Second-floor renovations usually focus on enhancing storage, adding more closets, creating second-floor laundry rooms, expanding bathrooms, and incorporating a den/entertainment room or a private ensuite. Interestingly, we often find that relocating the stairs allows for better space planning.

What our home renovation clients are saying
Tama S.
Harvey and his team at First Place did some renovations to our first home. They did the most amazing job. They were professional, on-budget, and most importantly on time! We have recently moved and are now using Harvey and his team for further renovations on our home!
Jennifer Z. & Russell L.
“ First Place turned the house we had been living in for 20 years into our dream home! Our house backs onto a tree-filled park so we didn't want to move. This was a complicated job as it entailed removing structural walls to open up the main floor. Harvey and his team did a spectacular job.
Part-way through the renovation, we decided to expand the scope to update the entire house in addition to the main floor. First Place went above and beyond to work with us and our architect to make that happen. The result is a stunning contemporary home that features all glass in the back, bringing the nature of the park into our home”
Greig G.
“I have worked with Harvey on two major projects at our home. A full renovation of our entire four-floor home and a subsequent basement renovation a few years later. In both instances, it was a pleasure to work with him. His professionalism and proactive attitude helped to calm our nerves throughout the experience. Harvey has a unique attention to detail and ensures that the project is completed fully without any small items to chase.”
Alstair R.
“Through the years, I have used Harvey and the First Place team for my house, townhouse, and condo renovations. His thoroughness, flexibility, creativity, idea generation, and leadership were evident throughout. Each of my renovations has been seamless. Not only have I trusted him with my own homes, I now use him with my interior design clients!”
