Heather M. Kitchen Renovation · Etobicoke
We answer 24/7. Every reply is human.
We started small — a single licensed crew, one neighbourhood, one finished job at a time. 11 years later we've delivered 500+ renovations across Toronto — and we still run the company the same way we ran that first project: with our word, our work, and our name on the line.
Once as a small crew. Once as a full-service renovation and emergency-repairs company serving Toronto.
Loki started the way most great trades businesses do — with one licensed carpenter, a truck, and a reputation for showing up when he said he would. The first job was a kitchen renovation in Etobicoke. The client referred two more. Eleven years later, those first three referrals have grown into a fully-licensed crew of HVAC, electrical, plumbing, carpentry, design, and landscaping specialists — all in-house, never subbed out.
We grew the old-fashioned way — one finished job at a time. By 2018 we'd outgrown the original truck and signed our first commercial fit-out contract. By 2022 we had launched our 50% down financing program because too many great families were holding off on the renovation they deserved. Today we deliver more than 50 renovations a year across the GTA, and most of them are still referrals from clients we worked with five and ten years ago.
We've never taken outside investment. We've never won a contract we didn't deliver. And the original three trades who joined the founder are still on the team — two leading site crews, one running our design desk in Mississauga.
A home is the biggest investment most families ever make. The team that touches it should treat it like their own.
We believe in showing up — for the free quote, for the demo morning, for the punch-list walk-through, for the warranty call eighteen months later. We believe a written quote and a fixed timeline matter more than the cheapest hourly rate. And we believe the best renovation is one a family can actually afford to do — which is why we built our 50% down financing program in the first place.
Most of all, we believe a homeowner who refers their best friend has paid us the highest compliment our trade can earn. More than half our work, every year, comes from a client recommending us to someone they love.
Every person we hire agrees to these five words before they earn the Loki Constructions hard hat.
We do what we say we're going to do. We own mistakes out loud. We never charge extra without first explaining why and getting your written sign-off.
Quality isn't inspected in — it's built in. Every trade we hire meets a standard set on the founder's first kitchen renovation in 2014 and defended ever since.
We benchmark ourselves against the best renovations in Toronto, not against the firm down the street. Good enough isn't.
We hire people who care whether the tile line is straight. Not because we'll check — but because they will.
Designers, suppliers, trades, homeowners — we work as one team. No silos, no blame, no finger-pointing when it gets hard.
Not every number means something. These ones do.
Every engagement starts with a 30-minute call. No pitch deck, no upsell. Just a conversation about the project, the site, and what success looks like for you.

Eight questions. Ranges are based on Toronto-area 2026 construction cost benchmarks published by Altus Group, HKC Construction, REMAX, and the City of Toronto fee schedule. You'll get a low/mid/high ballpark, flagged risk factors, and — if you want — a no-obligation meeting with our estimating team.
We publish our benchmarks. No mystery math.
Our per-sqft ranges come from Altus Group's Canadian Cost Guide, HKC Construction's 2026 guide, REMAX Canada build-cost data, the Toronto Municipal Code fee schedule, and our own cost database from 180+ delivered projects.
The range represents construction labour, materials, and equipment (hard costs). It excludes land, design fees, permit fees, Development Charges, site servicing, HST, FF&E, and contingency. Expect soft costs to add 8–16% and contingency 10–15%.
A per-sqft estimate at concept stage is typically ±25% of the final number. As drawings develop, we can narrow that to ±5–10% with a proper elemental estimate — usually at the schematic design milestone.
Once you submit, a senior estimator will review within 48 hours and reach out with a written response. If it's a fit, we'll book a no-obligation scope meeting and — if you have drawings — walk through an elemental estimate together.
Straight answers about cost, timeline, permits, and what it's actually like to work with us. If your question isn't here, email lokiconstructions@gmail.com and we'll add it.
A typical interior renovation in Toronto runs $25K–$120K in 2026 depending on scope, cabinetry level, and structural changes. A bathroom alone usually runs $25K–$55K, a kitchen $45K–$95K, and a full main floor open-concept renovation $80K–$160K. Use our estimate tool for a tailored quote.
Our 24/7 emergency line is staffed by humans, not voicemail — average pickup is under 60 seconds. For active flooding, fire damage, or structural emergencies we can have a crew on site within 1–4 hours anywhere in Toronto. Water-extraction and emergency board-up happens day one; full restoration scope is quoted within 48 hours.
Yes, for covered claims. We've worked with every major Canadian carrier — Intact, Aviva, TD, Allstate, Wawanesa, Economical, and most others — and we know what each one needs to approve scope quickly. We submit the estimate, photos, and progress documentation directly to your adjuster, and we only invoice your insurer once the claim is approved. You handle your deductible, we handle the rest.
Yes — fully. $5M Commercial General Liability, full WSIB on every site, and our trades are individually licensed in Ontario. Certificates of insurance go to your insurer or property manager on request — we send them within the hour.
Every Loki Constructions project carries a 2-year workmanship warranty from completion — double the Ontario statutory minimum. We answer warranty calls within 24 hours and our crews are back on site within 48 hours for non-emergency items, same-day for anything affecting safety.
Every scope change is documented in a written Change Order before any extra work starts — we never bill for surprise items at the end. Each Change Order includes the cost, the schedule impact, and a plain-English summary of what's changing. You sign before we proceed. Most projects run 0–5% in change orders, almost always for client-initiated upgrades like a different counter material or a relocated outlet.
As a GC, we're your single-point contractor — we hold all subcontractor contracts, carry all risk, and deliver on a fixed price (stipulated sum). As a CM, we work as your advisor during pre-construction (budgeting, value engineering, constructability review), and in the construction phase you have the option of CM-at-risk (we hold subs, like a GC, typically on a GMP) or CM-agency (you hold subs, we project-manage on fee). CM-at-risk-GMP is the most popular choice for our institutional clients.
We bid competitive stipulated-sum tenders, but our best outcomes come from CCDC 5B CM-at-Risk with GMP or CCDC 14 Design-Build engagements where we're involved in pre-construction. On a 24-month project, early CM involvement typically saves 8–12% on hard cost and 4–6 weeks on schedule vs hard-bid delivery.
We self-perform structural framing, finishing carpentry, and site supervision. Everything else — mechanical, electrical, plumbing, concrete, roofing, envelope, millwork — is delivered by our long-term subcontractor partners. We keep framing in-house because it lets us control structural quality and schedule contingency, which are the two biggest single-point risks on any project.
Yes to all three. We've delivered 8 LEED-certified projects (4 at Gold, 2 at Platinum), Toronto Green Standard Tier 2 and Tier 3 certified buildings since 2019, and our first Passive House retrofit in 2023. We carry a LEED AP BD+C and a Certified Passive House Tradesperson on staff and work closely with RDH Building Science on envelope detailing.
At schematic design (SD), our elemental estimates typically land within ±15% of the final GMP. At design development (DD, ~60%), we narrow to ±8%. At 100% construction documents, we hit ±3% — most often coming in slightly under on value-engineered packages. We publish these variance figures on every project and track them in our post-project reviews.
All of our project managers hold the relevant Ontario qualifications — Ontario Building Code, AODA, and ESA where applicable. We pull every permit ourselves, coordinate directly with municipal inspectors, and never leave that work to the homeowner. Every project has a dedicated PM and on-site lead who live and work within 45 minutes of Mississauga, so we can be on a job site within an hour if anything comes up.
Residential: we take on whole-house renovations from $500K and custom new builds from $1.5M hard cost. Commercial and institutional: we take on projects from $2M. We'll often look at smaller projects for repeat clients or when scope is a good fit for our self-perform crews, but the economics of our project-management overhead mean we don't tender jobs below these thresholds as a rule.
The fastest way to get a straight answer is to email the team directly. We reply within one business day — usually same-day.
We're a team of people who take the phrase "we do what we say we're going to do" literally. If that resonates — if you want your work to mean something and your handshake to count — we want to meet you.
Every person we hire has to earn their seat. That means when you're here, your work actually moves the needle — and we know it.
Our PMs run their projects. No seven layers of approval to get a subcontractor on site. You own the P&L, the client relationship, and the schedule — and the wins are yours.
Our founder still walks every job site. He's trained more than 40 construction managers over 23 years. If you want to learn this craft from someone who built it — you'll get that here.
From community rec centres to heritage schools to waterfront towers — our portfolio is varied because our clients are varied. You won't be stuck doing the same building type for five years.
Competitive salary, profit-sharing after year 2, full health & dental, RRSP match, paid professional development (PMP, Gold Seal, PQS), 4 weeks' vacation at 5 years, parental top-up.
