How we work

How It Works

Consultation

We visit your space, take accurate measurements, and talk through your vision.

A fixed price you approve

We put the full scope of work in writing and ask you to approve it before we begin, which keeps expectations clear and helps prevent the project from expanding partway through.

One Accountable Team

One dedicated team from the first plan to the final detail, so there is always one clear point of accountability.

Final Walkthrough

We hand your space back finished, clean, and ready to enjoy, and we stand behind our workmanship long after the job is done.

Why ArchCap

Why Owners Choose Us

One Team. One Responsibility.

One dedicated team oversees the project from start to finish, giving you a clear point of accountability throughout. If an issue arises, we take responsibility, address it promptly, and stand behind the quality of our work.

A price that holds

You approve a fixed, itemised price before we begin, and it does not change partway through the project.

Finished properly

We leave the space finished, clean and ready to use, held to the same standard whether it is a single room or the entire property.

Questions homeowners ask

Do you handle design and permits?

Yes. We handle design, drawings and the permits your project needs, so you are not managing separate people for each step.

Will I get a fixed price before work starts?

Before any work begins, you’ll receive a clear, itemised written quote outlining the full scope of work, labour, and materials, so you know exactly what to expect with no surprises at the end.

How long will a renovation take?

Scope affects timing, but we’ll provide a realistic schedule with your quote and keep you updated as the work progresses.

Do you clean up after the work?

We leave the work area clean, tidy, and ready for use. Additional detailed cleaning services are also available upon request.

How much does a bathroom renovation cost?

It depends on the size and the finishes. You get a written, itemised quote up front.

Will the rest of my home be protected?

Yes. We cover the path in and out and clean up each day.

How much does a small bathroom renovation cost?

Less than a large one, but not proportionally less, because a small bathroom still needs the same trades for plumbing, electrical, tiling and waterproofing, just with less material. The single biggest saving in a small bathroom is keeping the fixtures exactly where they already are. We price the room in front of you so the number is yours, not an average.

Should I replace the bathtub with a shower?

Convert to a walk-in shower if nobody in your home takes baths. It is the majority choice in GTA renovations now and it makes a bathroom feel considerably larger. Keep at least one bathtub in the house if you have young children or expect to sell to families, since many buyers still want one tub somewhere. The cost depends mostly on the tile and the glass you choose.

Do I need a permit to renovate a bathroom in Ontario?

You need a permit if the renovation involves structural changes, new plumbing lines, moving plumbing fixtures or significant electrical work. You generally do not need one for like-for-like replacement, such as swapping a toilet, vanity or tub in the same location, or replacing tile and flooring. Requirements vary slightly by municipality across the GTA and Hamilton. We work out what your specific project needs and handle the permit process for you.

Do I need a plumber for a bathroom renovation?

Yes, if any water lines or drains are being moved, added or replaced, that work should be done by a qualified plumber, and on a permitted project it will be inspected. Even a simple fixture swap can uncover corroded shutoff valves or outdated supply lines that need attention. We run our own plumbing side, so your renovation and its plumbing are handled by one accountable team rather than coordinated between separate contractors.

Can I renovate my bathroom in a condo, and what do condo boards allow?

Yes, but a condo bathroom renovation in Toronto needs board approval before work starts, and most corporations set rules covering working hours, elevator booking and floor protection, insurance certificates from your contractor, and restrictions on moving plumbing, since drains cast into concrete slabs often cannot move. You normally submit a renovation application with your contractor’s scope, licence and insurance. Talk to us early about your building’s rules so the schedule accounts for them.

How do I know if there is water damage behind my bathroom tiles?

The warning signs are tiles that sound hollow when tapped, cracked or crumbling grout, tiles that flex under pressure, a persistent musty smell, discoloration on the wall or ceiling below the bathroom, and caulking that keeps failing in the same spot. Any of these suggests moisture has got behind the tile, and the damage is almost always worse than it looks from the outside. If you are seeing them, get it assessed before it reaches the framing.
