Renovating an Ottawa house

Most Ottawa renovations happen in houses built from the 1960s to the 2000s. Split-levels in Nepean, 1980s and 1990s two-storeys in Kanata and Orléans, and newer builds in Barrhaven. Each era has its own wiring, plumbing and insulation to deal with once the walls are open.

Ground matters here too. Much of the Ottawa area sits on Leda clay, a sensitive marine clay that shrinks in dry summers and holds water in wet ones. Basements and additions need to be planned with that in mind, from drainage to footings.

Anything structural, any new plumbing and most basement finishing needs a City of Ottawa building permit. The contractor pulls the permit, books the inspections and keeps the drawings on site. You get a written scope and a price before anything is torn out.
