 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were looking for someone to renovate our bathroom.  After getting a few quotes, we chose Saveska Construction, because Savi provided us with a very detailed quote, was honest about issues that may come up based on what we wanted done and gave his opinions when we needed them. During the renovation process, Savi explained each step and answered all of our questions.  He is very professional and knowledgeable. We love our new bathroom!  It turned out better than we expected.  We would definitely use them again in the future for any other renovations we need.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Savi is very professional and explains everything very clearly. He takes the time to talk to you about your project and makes sure you feel comfortable with everything. His quotes breakdown the cost for each stage of the reno–which is very helpful and transparent–which speaks to the trustworthiness of his approach.

From day one, they were organized, responsive, and easy to communicate with. They kept the project moving and made what can be a stressful process feel manageable. Even when small challenges came up, they handled them calmly and professionally. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a basement renovation cost in Burlington?

Most basement renovations in Burlington range from $35,000 to $120,000 or more in 2026. A basic finish with an open rec room, standard flooring, and lighting typically runs $35,000 to $60,000. A mid range basement with an added bedroom or bathroom usually lands between $50,000 and $90,000. A high end or legal basement apartment with a kitchen, separate entrance, and full code compliance can exceed $90,000 to $140,000. Every project is priced to your design, materials, and scope after an on site review.

How long does a basement renovation in Burlington take?

A basement renovation typically takes 6 to 12 weeks depending on size, layout, and whether it includes a bathroom or kitchen. Adding plumbing, a legal second unit, or a separate entrance extends the timeline and the permitting. We provide a clear dated schedule before construction begins.

Do you finish unfinished basements?

Yes. We take unfinished Burlington basements from bare concrete through framing, insulation, electrical, plumbing, drywall, flooring, and finishing, turning the space into a comfortable, code compliant living area built around how you plan to use it.

What kinds of basement spaces can you create?

We build family and rec rooms, home offices, guest and in law suites, home gyms, home theatres, basement bathrooms, and legal income suites. Each layout is designed to make the most of your ceiling height, windows, and mechanical locations.

Do you handle permits for basement renovations?

Yes. We manage the permit process and coordinate the required drawings and inspections. Permits are especially important for basement bedrooms, which need code compliant egress windows, and for legal second units, which have specific fire separation and ceiling height requirements. We handle those details for you.

Can a basement renovation increase my home's value?

Yes. A finished basement adds usable square footage and functionality, and a legal basement apartment can also generate rental income, which is a strong draw in the Burlington and wider Halton market. Both improve resale appeal and the everyday flexibility of your home.

Can I add a legal basement apartment or income suite?

Yes, where the property qualifies. A legal secondary suite requires proper ceiling height, egress windows, fire separation, and often a separate entrance, all built to code and permitted. We assess feasibility early and design the suite to meet Burlington and Ontario requirements.

How do you deal with moisture and waterproofing in a basement?

We address moisture before finishing, using proper vapour management, quality insulation, and waterproofing where needed, so your investment is protected. Finishing over a damp basement is the most common and costly mistake we help homeowners avoid.
