Premium Home Renovations & Additions in Etobicoke
One Project at a Time. Master-Level Execution. Zero Corporate Shortcuts.
If you are planning a major transformation for your Etobicoke home, you face a common industry problem. Most large contracting companies in the Greater Toronto Area operate on a high-volume model: they sign your contract, split their sub-trades across five other jobs, and leave your property sitting empty for weeks while you chase an absentee project manager.
Procon General Contractors Ltd. is built differently. We actively limit our seasonal capacity to focus on one project at a time. When we break ground on your home, your build is our company's exclusive priority. Our owner, Frank, is on your job site every single morning with his tool belt on, personally executing and supervising every line of construction from demolition to the final inspection.
📍 Specializing in Etobicoke’s Distinct Neighborhood Architecture
Etobicoke features a diverse, highly specific housing stock. You cannot apply cookie-cutter construction methods to a 1940s Kingsway stone home or a mid-century bungalow in Alderwood. We bring multi-generational building intelligence to your exact streetscape:
The Kingsway & Sunnylea: Executing complex, full-gut structural remodeling and multi-story home extensions that preserve the historic, stately curb appeal of classic stone and brick properties.
Islington, Alderwood & Long Branch: Turning traditional post-war bungalows into expansive, modern family hubs by installing hidden steel beams for open-concept living, or doubling your square footage with a seamless second-story vertical addition.
Mimico & New Toronto: Maxing out tighter lot footprints with custom rear additions, open-concept main floor structural alterations, and non-invasive, floating structural rooftop decks.
🏗️ Our Core Etobicoke Building Services
1.Custom Home Additions & Extensions:Expand Vertically or Horizontally.
Don't leave the neighborhood you love just because your family outgrew its layout. We specialize in building out ground-floor rear extensions and framing seamless second-story additions. We manage the entire build process, including foundation underpinning, matching existing exterior brickwork, and updating mechanical trunk lines.
2.Open-Concept Main Floor Remodeling:Hidden Steel Beam Installations.
Transform dark, choppy, compartmentalized main floors into bright, fluid living spaces. We remove load-bearing partitions and install flush-mounted steel I-beams directly into joist cavities, completely maintaining your ceiling height while safely redistributing structural weight.
3.Basement Structural Transformations:Underpinning & Lower Level Suites.
Turn a low-clearance, damp basement into an 8-foot-tall, modern family media room or a legal secondary rental suite. We handle structural underpinning, complete sub-slab hydronic in-floor heating configurations, interior weeping tile systems, and OBC-compliant egress window excavation.
📋 The Procon Difference vs. The Etobicoke Competition
Standard Etobicoke Contractors
Juggles 4 to 6 job sites simultaneously, leading to ghosted crews and unexplained production delays.
Absentee owners and project managers who run operations from a vehicle, leaving unvetted labor unsupervised.
Slow, frustrating permit delays due to unfamiliarity with specific municipal zoning rules
Standard 1 -year basic warranties that leave you vulnerable to hidden post-construction structural issues.
The Procon Standard
100% Dedicated Focus. We only work on one project at a time. Our team is on your property every single day.
Owner On-Site Every Day. Frank is on-site every morning, personally guiding structural execution and quality control.
Expert Local Knowledge. Decades of experience navigating the Toronto Building Department and Committee of Adjustment.
Bulletproof Peace of Mind. 1-year structural warranty, $2M liability insurance, and WSIB compliance.
📐 Navigating Etobicoke Permits & The Committee of Adjustment
Because lot coverages and setback requirements are strictly monitored by the City of Toronto, executing an addition or a major structural change in Etobicoke requires strict regulatory compliance.
Procon handles the entire backend process for you. We coordinate directly with BCIN-certified designers and structural engineers to compile stamped architectural plans, navigating the city's digital ePlans submission portal flawlessly. If your dream addition requires a minor variance for lot coverage or depth, we represent you directly at the Toronto Local Appeal Body or Committee of Adjustment, securing approvals smoothly without stalling your target timeline.
💬 What Your Neighbors Are Saying

Frequently Asked Questions: Etobicoke Renovation Rules
How long does it take to get a basement underpinning permit in Etobicoke?
Depending on current municipal volume at the Etobicoke Civic Centre, standard structural permit applications via Toronto’s digital ePlans portal typically take between 4 to 8 weeks for initial review. If your project requires Minor Variances for lot setbacks or depth allowances through the Committee of Adjustment, it can add several months to the planning phase. Procon handles the entire architectural drawing submission, engineering stamps, and administrative coordination for you.
How do you handle Etobicoke’s clay soil and high water table?
Neighborhoods across south Etobicoke—especially Mimico, New Toronto, and Long Branch—suffer from heavy clay soil that holds water and exerts massive hydrostatic pressure against foundations. We protect lowered basements by wrapping the exterior or interior with premium dimpled delta-membranes, laying continuous perforated weeping tile networks, and installing an industrial sump pump with a dedicated marine-grade battery backup system to keep you dry during heavy Lake Ontario storms.
Are your projects building code compliant?
Absolutely. Every single framing modification, plumbing rough-in, fire-rated drywall envelope, and egress window we install meets or exceeds the Ontario Building Code (OBC). Because Frank is on your site every single day, he personally schedules, prepares, and walks the City of Toronto building inspectors through your home for all mandatory rough-in and final sign-off checks.
