Basement Finishing, Underpinning, Walkout and Secondary Unit legalization

From NGL Group

Whether you’re starting from the bare bones or remodeling an already finished area, our team of experts will help put together a design and technical plan that incorporates all of your basement project ideas. After taking initial measurements and assessing the existing structure and floor plan, plumbing and electrical plans can be designed to integrate a kitchen, wet bar, bathroom, entertainment system, pot lights, a laundry room and more. Our goal is to optimize living space while providing a functional and efficient layout, keeping your personal style and taste in mind. We will coordinate with the municipality to acquire all permits and necessary documents for the project.

Increasing the height of your basement (underpinning) and creating a basement walkout are excellent ways to improve the functionality of the existing layout or to create a separate entrance for a secondary unit. Because basement walkouts and basement underpinning require soil excavation, the addition of walls, stairs, railings and other structures, a building permit must be acquired before construction can begin. The project must abide by municipal zoning and building bylaws. Our team will take care of submitting all documents to the municipality to obtain any necessary permits for the project.

Our team of experts will prepare technical and design plans, taking into account waterproofing measures, like weather-stripping doors and windows and providing adequate drainage. We provide construction supervision, coordinating with vendors, contractors and trades to maintain building schedules and timelines, and ensure the project follows design plans and building code.

Having a secondary unit can be a great way to add income and help with your mortgage. In order to make a part of your home (like your basement) into a secondary unit, it must be licensed as such through the municipality. The secondary unit must abide by the zoning bylaws and Ontario Building Code to ensure that the living space is legal, healthy and safe. NGL Group will coordinate with local governing bodies to acquire all necessary permits and licenses for your secondary unit.

No matter your requirements, the team at NGL Group can help with all aspects of basement renovation, walkout addition, and secondary unit legalization.

We decided it was a good time to remodel the entire kitchen and working with his team was a pleasure from start to finish. Great communication, so much knowledge and great design ideas we never thought about. Over the moon with how our kitchen turned out!”

We were running out of space and didn’t want to move from our wonderful neighbourhood so we decided to add a bedroom addition above our kitchen (old Toronto home). We were worried about permits, the demolition and all the work that would need to be done but Larry and NGL did a great job, we are very happy and have recommended them to our friends.

We purchased a new home that needed a lot of repairs and remodeling work. We redid the first floor completely, from kitchen to bathroom, floors, drywall, everything. The reno was done on time, we were always kept in the loop. We are very happy with the design and choices the team helped us make

We moved into a house without a finished basement but needed the extra space for our kids. NGL made it easy and great quality of work. Very positive experience.
