WOODBRIDGE'S TRUSTED BASEMENT RENOVATION COMPANY

Basement renovation in Woodbridge, street by street

Woodbridge is Vaughan at its most established — East Woodbridge, Vellore Village, Sonoma Heights and Pine Valley homes come with generous basements that become bars, theatres, gyms and in-law suites finished to main-floor standard.

As part of the City of Vaughan, Woodbridge projects run through Vaughan's ePlans permit system — which we file and manage for you. Whatever your starting point, we turn that lower level into finished, livable square footage — and real value added to your Woodbridge home.

PERMITS & APPROVALS · WOODBRIDGE

Basement renovation permits in Woodbridge, handled for you

Woodbridge falls under the City of Vaughan, so basement projects require a building permit filed through Vaughan's online ePlans portal. Planning a legal second suite? Vaughan permits basement apartments with up to two bedrooms, subject to rules on unit size, parking and the separate entrance. We prepare the drawings, file through ePlans, and book every staged inspection — framing, insulation, ESA electrical, plumbing and final — so your project keeps moving.

WOODBRIDGE BASEMENT QUESTIONS

Answers for Woodbridge homeowners

Do I need a building permit to finish my basement in Woodbridge?

Yes — finishing a basement in Woodbridge requires a building permit, with staged inspections for structural, framing, insulation, electrical and plumbing work. Desire Basements prepares the drawings, files the application, and manages every inspection through final sign-off.

Can I add a legal basement apartment in Woodbridge?

Yes — under Ontario's updated housing rules, most urban residential lots in Woodbridge can now have additional residential units, including a basement suite, subject to local zoning. Suites must meet Building Code and Fire Code requirements for ceiling height, fire separation, egress and alarms — we design and build to full code and handle the approvals end to end.

How much does a basement renovation cost in Woodbridge?

Most professional basement renovations in Woodbridge start around $55 per square foot and up — a 1,000 sq ft project starts in the $55,000 range with standard finishes. Across the GTA, the median project in our 2026 Cost Report is about $103,000. Every Desire quote is itemized line by line and locked before you sign, and includes a free 3D design of your finished basement.
