Basement Renovation in Georgetown, Ontario
Georgetown is one of Halton Hills' most beloved communities—where the historic charm of Old Georgetown and its tree-lined streets near Main and Church meets the vibrant new family subdivisions of Stewart's Mill and Dominion Gardens, where the Hungry Hollow Trail system weaves through the Credit River valley, and where established neighbourhoods like Delrex, Moore Park, and Mountainview offer mature lots and spacious detached homes with significant untapped potential below grade. Whether your home is a classic bungalow in Delrex, a two-storey in Georgetown South, or a newer build in Meadowglen or Arbour Glen, the unfinished basement beneath it represents one of your property's most valuable opportunities. We help Georgetown homeowners transform that space into a beautifully finished, fully livable lower level.
Turning Every Georgetown Basement Into an Exceptional Space
Georgetown's housing stock spans more than a century of construction—from the century-old homes of Old Georgetown near Main and Church Streets, where original foundations, low ceiling heights, and dated mechanicals require specialist handling, to the mature bungalows and split-levels of Delrex and Moore Park with their generous lot sizes and well-established layouts, to the newer detached and semi-detached homes of Stewart's Mill, Meadowglen, and Dominion Gardens where modern poured-concrete foundations offer ideal finishing conditions. Our team assesses every Georgetown property individually—reviewing foundation type, Silver Creek and Credit River proximity for drainage considerations, ceiling heights, existing mechanical configurations, and structural specifics—before producing a plan that fully unlocks your basement's potential without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions About Georgetown Basement Renovations
Straight answers to what Georgetown homeowners ask most before starting their basement renovation project.
Basement renovation costs in Georgetown typically range from $35,000 to $85,000+, depending on the size of the space, finish level selected, and construction complexity. Newer builds in Stewart's Mill, Meadowglen, and Dominion Gardens with clean modern layouts and full-height poured-concrete foundations tend to be toward the lower end of this range. Older homes in Delrex and Moore Park—where 1950s and 1960s construction may involve lower ceiling heights, aging electrical panels, or older mechanical configurations—may require additional preparatory investment. Every Georgetown project receives a free, fully itemized quote at no obligation.
Most Georgetown basement finishing projects take 6–10 weeks from start to completion. Newer homes in Stewart's Mill, Georgetown South, Meadowglen, and Dominion Gardens with standard modern layouts typically run on the shorter end. Older properties in Delrex, Moore Park, and Old Georgetown—where electrical upgrades, drainage improvements, or additional structural work may be required before finishing can begin—may take 10–14 weeks. A precise, realistic schedule is always confirmed in writing before any Georgetown work starts.
Yes. Any Georgetown basement renovation involving new framing, electrical work, plumbing, egress windows, or fire separation changes requires a Town of Halton Hills building permit under the Ontario Building Code. This applies across all Georgetown communities, including Delrex, Moore Park, Mountainview, Georgetown South, Stewart's Mill, Meadowglen, Dominion Gardens, and Old Georgetown. We manage the complete permit application, coordinate all required Town of Halton Hills inspections, and handle every sign-off as a fully included standard part of our service—at no extra charge.
Yes. Secondary suites are permitted in most low-density residential zones throughout Georgetown under the Town of Halton Hills Official Plan and Ontario's provincial housing legislation. We design and build fully code-compliant basement rental suites in Georgetown—including separate entrances where site conditions allow, fire-rated assemblies, egress windows meeting Ontario Building Code minimums, full kitchens, and legal ceiling heights—that pass all Town of Halton Hills inspections. Georgetown's growing population of young professionals commuting to the GTA via the Georgetown GO Station creates excellent rental demand for quality basement apartments.
Georgetown's Delrex and Moore Park neighbourhoods—built primarily in the 1950s through 1970s—contain homes where original weeping tile systems, aging block or poured foundations, and occasionally low ceiling heights require thorough assessment before any finishing work begins. Georgetown's Credit River valley setting also means certain properties experience elevated spring water table levels. We conduct a full moisture, drainage, and structural assessment on every Georgetown property regardless of age, then design and install the precise interior drainage, sump pump, vapour barrier, and structural solution appropriate for your specific home and lot before framing a single wall.
Georgetown's strong family demographic—with many households that have school-age children and at least one parent commuting to the GTA—creates high demand for family recreation rooms, children's playrooms and homework zones, home gyms, dedicated home offices for remote workers, media rooms, in-law suites, and income-generating legal basement rental suites. Larger detached homes in Stewart's Mill, Georgetown South, and Mountainview frequently combine a recreation area, home gym, and full bathroom in one thoughtfully designed lower level. Many Delrex bungalow owners invest in raising ceiling height through underpinning to unlock their basement's full livable potential.

What Georgetown Homeowners Say About Us
"We have a 1960s bungalow in Delrex on one of the ravine-backing streets, and the basement had always been too low to finish properly—just under seven feet at the high end and lower toward the back wall. Peace of Mind came in, assessed the whole space honestly, recommended underpinning the rear section, and then designed a gorgeous rec room, a home gym with rubber flooring and mirrors, and a full bathroom. The finished space has completely transformed the livability of our home and added significant value. This team knows older Georgetown homes inside and out. We trust them completely."
"We bought a newer detached in Stewart's Mill four years ago and finally renovated the basement last fall. We wanted a big open family room for the kids, a proper home office for me—I work remotely in financial services—and a three-piece bath. Peace of Mind delivered a stunning result: engineered hardwood throughout, a feature accent wall in the family room, a beautiful glass-walled office with built-in shelving, and a gorgeous bathroom with a frameless glass shower. The project manager was communicative every single day. We finished on budget and one day ahead of schedule. Absolutely exceptional team."
"We live in a two-storey in Mountainview and converted the full basement into a one-bedroom rental suite with a separate entrance from the side of the house. Peace of Mind handled everything from start to finish—the Town of Halton Hills permit, all inspections, the fire-rated assemblies, a new egress window, the kitchen with quartz counters, and a beautiful open-plan living space with luxury vinyl plank throughout. Our tenant was in and paying rent before Christmas. The suite has made an enormous difference to our monthly mortgage payment. The whole process was smooth, professional, and stress-free."
