Home Renovation & Addition Contractor in Burlington
Generation Construction & Fine Homes Ltd. has spent generations delivering home renovation in Burlington projects that turn dated houses into homes that finally work. Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, exteriors, or a full home addition in Burlington — tearing out a 1970s kitchen in Roseland, opening up a Millcroft main floor, adding a second storey in Aldershot — we take the whole thing off your plate. One team, one point of contact, and a schedule you can actually plan your life around.
Where a Home Renovation in Burlington Usually Starts
Escarpment bungalows, lakefront century homes, 90s Headon Forest subdivisions — every Burlington housing type ages differently. The right home renovation contractor in Burlington starts with your house, not a template.
Where most Burlington homeowners start:
- Kitchens — load-bearing wall out, proper beam in, layout that works
- Bathrooms — one bath for four people and failing cast-iron drains
- Basements — heated square footage wasted, now a suite or rec room
- Whole-home — a 1978 floor plan reworked into open, usable living
- Exteriors — tired siding, windows and doors past their service life
Then there's permitting. Every structural, electrical or plumbing home renovation in Burlington needs City of Burlington approval under the Ontario Building Code. We file it, track it, and deal with the inspector.


Home Renovation in Burlington: Common Problems, Practical Fixes
Between Halton land transfer costs, agent commissions and a tight listing market, moving is rarely the cheaper move. Renovating puts that same money into the home you already own — and fixes what's actually bothering you day to day.
- Dark, chopped-up main floor — open plan with light reaching every corner
- 1980s kitchen and bath — updated where buyers and family notice most
- Cold, unused basement — finished suite, gym or rec room you actually use
- Drafty rooms, high bills — sealed envelope, better windows, lower monthly cost
- No room for what's next — space planned for the next ten years, not just today
Done properly, a home renovation in Burlington returns twice: a home that finally works the day we hand back the keys, and a stronger number when you eventually list.
Room to Grow: Your Home Addition in Burlington
Moving costs land transfer tax, commissions and a house that still isn't quite right. A home addition in Burlington puts that budget into square footage you choose — designed to match your existing brick, rooflines and proportions so it never looks added on.
- Rear & side extensions — a family room that fits everyone at once
- Second storeys — double your floor area on the same footprint
- Bedroom & bath additions — no more morning lineup or shared rooms
- Kitchen bump-outs — island, seating and real counter space at last
- In-law & secondary suites — separate entrance, bath and full privacy
Same brick, same lines, same proportions — nobody will guess it wasn't original. With generations of building behind us and every permit, trade and timeline managed in-house, your addition gets built once and built right.


What Should You Budget for a Home Addition in Burlington?
Nobody quotes an addition over the phone honestly. Here's what actually moves the number — starting with whether your lot allows the build at all.
- Zoning & lot limits — coverage, setbacks and height decide what's possible
- Footprint — square footage drives material, labour and foundation cost
- Build type — a bump-out and a second storey are different projects
- Finish level — the same 400 sq ft varies widely by specification
- Approvals — Halton permits, drawings, Conservation Halton review
We price every home addition in Burlington line by line after a site visit — zoning checked first, variance handled if you need one.
