Basements

Basement Renovations & Secondary Suites

Basement renovations and secondary suite construction in Toronto and the GTA, including layouts, framing, building systems and interior finishing.

Your project, coordinated

One team responsible for moving the work forward.

A basement can become comfortable living space, a family area or a secondary suite when the property and approvals permit. DCO Group coordinates the construction around site conditions and applicable requirements.

Before work is confirmed, we review the property, intended scope and information available. This keeps recommendations grounded in the actual project rather than a generic package.
