Basement Remodelers Near York

“I used Alte Vita for a full basement renovation, and I couldn’t be happier. They turned what was basically a storage dump into a cozy living room, an extra bedroom, and a stunning bathroom. I really liked how honest they were about costs and timelines. No sugar coating, just straight answers. That gave me confidence, and they delivered exactly what they promised. The quality of finishing is outstanding.”

“I have nothing but good things to say about Level Custom Build!!! We are so lucky we found them. The guys were recommended to us by our friends, who also used them for their basement reno. We hired Level Custom Build to remodel our unfinished 1000 sq ft walk-our basement at our Muskoka cottage and add a full bathroom, a guest bedroom, a laundry room, a living room and a wet bar. Al and Josh are very resourceful and provided a lot of helpful suggestions throughout the design phase and sourced the best materials at incredible prices. I was literally bombarding them with photos from Houzz of the ideas I had, and they were able to source the exact finishes I wanted, no matter how far they had to drive to get it. I also like to the fact that Al was very thorough in explaining everything to me, like pros and cons of all the options: i.e. selecting hollow vs solid core doors, upgrading electrical panel, bathroom configurations, durability of tiles, suggestions about neat features for our wet bar such as adding a water line for the ice maker etc. I really like the app that they use to keep us updated and share daily progress photos. We had very thorough communication from start to finish, they were always available to answer questions. I am beyond happy with how the basement turned out: it looks very high end and I know it will last for decades because Level Custom Build team used high quality finishes and materials. I wanted the place to have a rustic look and Al and Josh and the team went above and beyond to add beautiful custom pine wood paneling and accents throughout. It added lots of warmth and was exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Level Custom Build, you will be very happy with these guys!!!”

“Our 1910 semi-detached home was in need of a major makeover to turn it into a place to call home for the next 20+ years. We hired Wanda Ely Architect Inc. to take on the challenge of renovating our entire house and making all three floors into beautiful and functional spaces. The original interior was dark, with poor spatial flow and idiosyncratic layout, as well as an unfinished basement with an ultra-low ceiling. Wanda and team’s architectural design introduced gorgeous natural light from windows and skylights; tall ceilings on every floor with soaring space in the new entrance and on the uppermost floor; great spatial flow throughout and good functionality with ample storage; the team designed the interior around exceptional custom metal work and unique millwork; and their exterior design gave our house the facelift it needed but a look that fits in with our neighbourhood. We worked collaboratively with Wanda, Victoria, and team on the design, interior features, and fixtures over the best part of a year before work began to renovate the house over 14+ months (all during the COVID pandemic!). Wanda and team designed the transformation, recommended a skilled general contractor and craftspeople (millwork and metalwork), and then worked with them to turn design into reality. We were looking for a transformation – and that’s what we got!”
