A basement renovation is often needed long before major problems appear. Watch for these warning signs:
If your basement smells damp or musty, or you see stains on the walls or floors, there’s likely a moisture problem. We install professional waterproofing systems to help keep your home dry and protect your air quality.
Still using your basement for storage only? That’s prime square footage going to waste. We help turn underused areas into family rooms, rental suites, or cozy guest spaces — whatever suits your lifestyle.
If your energy bills are higher than they should be, your basement might be the reason. Drafts and poor insulation can pull heat out of your home fast. We upgrade with high-performance insulation and smart ventilation to enhance comfort and reduce energy costs.
Small cracks may seem harmless, but they can indicate foundation shifts or structural stress. Our team will assess the issue and perform any necessary repairs to ensure your home remains safe.
A dark basement with no airflow isn’t just uninviting—it’s also uncomfortable. We brighten things up with egress windows, fresh air systems, and LED lighting, so your basement feels like part of your home.
If you spot mould on surfaces or smell it in the air, don’t wait. It’s more than just unsightly — it’s a health concern. We offer mould removal, moisture control, and air purification solutions to keep your space safe and breathable.
Wondering if it’s worth the investment? Here’s what basement finishing can bring:
Finished basements add valuable living space and significantly boost your home’s market appeal and resale price.
Adding a legal basement suite can generate reliable monthly income — a smart move for Toronto homeowners.
Need a bigger family room, an extra bedroom, or a private gym? A basement upgrade is often more affordable than moving.
Better insulation and HVAC upgrades make your whole house more energy-efficient, cutting heating and cooling expenses.
Waterproofing and ventilation improvements protect your home’s structure — and your family's health — for years to come.

RM Renovation has been servicing Toronto and GTA area for more than 20 year.
We start with design and planning, then handle permits if needed. After that comes framing, followed by rough-ins for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, then insulation, drywall, flooring, and final finishes. We finish up with a full walkthrough.
Costs usually range from $50,000 to $90,000, depending on the design, features, and finishes you choose. We provide detailed quotes to match your vision and your budget.
Definitely. Finishing an old basement adds livable space, increases your home's value, improves energy efficiency, and opens the door to rental income if you add a legal suite.
Adding a legal rental suite, creating extra bedrooms or bathrooms, and focusing on high-quality waterproofing, insulation, and smart layouts brings the most value to your property.
Yes! We specialize in basement bathroom installations and custom basement kitchens. Whether you're adding a powder room or a full 3-piece bathroom, our licensed plumbers and designers ensure everything meets local code. We also build compact basement kitchenettes for in-law suites or rental units.
Yes, in most cases. Permits are required for structural changes, plumbing, electrical work, or the creation of a secondary suite. We take care of all permitting and inspections for you.
Most basement renovation projects in Toronto take between 6 to 10 weeks, depending on size, complexity, and how quickly permits are approved.
Absolutely. We can break the project into phases, like framing and waterproofing first, then finishing later. It’s a smart way to manage costs without sacrificing quality.
Vinyl plank flooring is a top choice — it’s waterproof, durable, and looks fantastic. For a cozier feel, carpet is an option too, but we always recommend a proper moisture barrier underneath.
