Building in Aurora.
Aurora keeps a genuine small-town core, century homes off Yonge Street, streets that predate the region around them, ringed by newer estate neighbourhoods where lots run wide and expectations run high.
What building here involves.
Work in the old core is careful work: heritage-listed properties near the four corners, century framing that needs assessment rather than assumptions, and additions that have to sit politely beside verandas older than the town's water mains. In the estate areas east of Bayview the constraints flip, architectural controls, larger spans, higher-end finish packages, and full-lot landscape coordination. Two kinds of building, one standard of care.

Building in Aurora: what people ask.
Do you work in Aurora?
Yes. Aurora is inside our GTA practice, along with Richmond Hill, Newmarket, King City. Whole-home renovations, additions, custom homes, structural framing and decks are the core of what we do there, designed and built by one team.
Do I need a permit to renovate or add on in Aurora?
For structural work, additions and most substantial alterations, yes: a building permit with drawings a plans examiner can approve. Additions also answer to setbacks, coverage and height, and in older neighbourhoods a minor variance is often part of the job. We prepare and carry the applications as part of the project.
What does a renovation or addition cost in Aurora?
Published Toronto and GTA guides put full-home renovations at roughly $150 to $400 per square foot and additions at $350 to $700 or more per square foot, with structure, the age of the house, access and finish level moving the number. Our renovation cost guide covers the drivers; the estimate follows a site visit.
Who will I deal with on a Aurora project?
Emilio, the owner. He is the person you meet first, the contact while the job runs, and the one whose name is on the work when it is done.
