Ajax's Basement Legalization Specialists

For Ajax homeowners, transforming your basement into a legal suite means navigating Ajax’s zoning bylaws under Durham Region and Ontario Building Code fire safety rules. Since 2018, we’ve helped over 60 Ajax families; our turnkey service handles everything: permit paperwork with Ajax officials, OBC-compliant fire separations, and moisture-proofing for the area’s clay-heavy soil. Stop risking fines or insurance voids; let local experts guarantee your basement passes final inspection.

Solving Ajax's Unique Basement Challenges

Ajax’s older homes—especially mid-century bungalows and wartime houses—often face three roadblocks: low ceilings under 6’5″, single-pane windows failing egress rules, and shared HVAC systems. We fix these permanently. For pre-1980s homes, we engineer ceiling lifts that do not compromise joist integrity. We install steel-lined egress wells meeting Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority floodplain specs. Every suite gets dedicated electrical panels and HVAC zones – no more “shared air” rejections from Ajax inspectors. Additionally, we source materials locally through Ajax Home Hardware to expedite projects.

Why Ajax Trusts Our Basement Expertise

Choose the only contractors who know Ajax’s building inspectors by name. We’ve certified 127+ basements here since 2019 because we:

  • Prevent delays by pre-filing plans with Ajax Building Dept
  • Use Ajax-tested materials like Roxul insulation (blocks noise from nearby rail lines)
  • Offer 24‑month warranties – double the regional standard
