Highly recommend working with VDR on any home renovations! Jose and Luis did an absolutely amazing job from start to finish on our bathroom renovation and it turned out even better than we expected. They were extremely responsive throughout the entire project, were able to work out solutions quickly to maintain the design we were looking for and kept us informed along the way. Every person as part of their team was easy to work with and took their time to ensure everything was done right and professionally.

We were very pleased with the work that VDR Renovations did on our master en-suite. Jose and Luis were friendly, personable and easy to work with. The demolition was quick and installation of items was to our entire satisfaction. Any issues were attended to quickly. Communication was very good which we very much appreciated. These folks really do take pride in doing a job done well and we would highly recommend.

Wow! VDR Renovations completely transformed my dark, cramped workspace into a bright, functional kitchen with lots of cupboards. Jose and Luis had lots of creative ideas on the best ways to use the space and I couldn't be happier. They really listened to what I wanted and were always available to answer questions. I had a limited budget but they found innovative ways to meet my goals. They're fantastic!!

Common Questions

FAQ

How long does a basement renovation take?

Most basement finishing projects run 6–12 weeks depending on scope. A recreational room or home office typically takes 6–8 weeks. A full in-law suite with bathroom and kitchen runs 10–12 weeks. You receive a detailed timeline in your written estimate before anything begins.

Do you manage building permits?

Yes. We manage the full permit process on your behalf — application, drawings coordination, and required inspections. All work meets Ontario Building Code standards. We will not cut corners on permits — it protects your home and your investment.

How does your pricing work?

You receive a detailed, itemized written estimate after a free site visit. The price is fixed — what you approve is what you pay. We don't operate with vague estimates or open-ended contracts. You know exactly what you're getting before a single wall opens.

Do you serve both Niagara and Halton?

Yes. We're based in Oakville and actively serve both regions. Niagara — including St. Catharines, Niagara Falls, Welland, and Thorold — is a primary growth market. We continue to serve our established Halton client base across Oakville, Burlington, and Milton.

Do you build legal basement suites?

Yes — legal secondary suites are one of our specialties. We handle the full scope: egress windows, separate entrances, kitchenettes, bathrooms, fire separation, and all permit requirements to ensure the suite is fully legal and insurable.

Are you insured?

Yes. VDR Contracting is a general contractor carrying comprehensive liability insurance. We're happy to provide proof of coverage before any work begins. It's always worth asking any contractor you're considering — it's a question that protects you.
