Testimonials

"Ultimate was wonderful to work with and exceeded our expectations."

"We will definitely recommend Ultimate to others and will hire them again."

"The quality of workmanship was phenomenal."

"We were impressed by everything Danny and his team brought to the table."

While filming Season 7 of Property Brothers in Calgary AB, we were pleased to have Danny of Ultimate Renovations on board as one of our Construction Leads. Requiring a keen eye for detail and an ability to remain calm under pressure; it’s a notoriously challenging position. But right from the start, we were impressed by everything Danny and his team brought to the table. The final hours of a project can make or break an episode of our show, and Danny and his team proved themselves to be goal-oriented team players who kept focused and composed until the big reveal.- Jonathon Scott & Drew Scott
Property Brothers Team

"Highly recommend for anyone looking to renovate!"

"We were so fortunate to be in great hands with Danny and the team at Ultimate."

Ultimate Homes was responsible for renovating our house featured on the Property Brother's HGTV show. It was a tremendous undertaking for Ultimate considering the short timelines and the demand for high quality. And they delivered! Ultimate worked tirelessly to renovate our house into our dream home. The crew was impeccably professional and highly skilled. Even after the camera crew was gone, Ultimate has been very responsive for touchups and guarantees the quality of their product. We were so fortunate to be in great hands with Danny and the team at Ultimate. The whole process was a whirlwind and they definitely were on our side the whole time.- Keith Knudsen

"THANKS, Ultimate Renovations."

Then last week one of the locks on a window broke. I called Ultimate to get a recommendation for a window repair company. The person who answered my call was Danny Ritchie. After all these years, he still remembered who I was, and the house. I told him what the issue was. He said he would stop by and have a look to see if he could fix the lock on the window. Danny was able to correct the issue with the lock and the window works as before. And the cost for the repair, no charge. THANKS, Ultimate Renovations.- Brian Brett

"If every renovation was like this people wouldn't hesitate to get work done."

We got referred to Danny and his team by another contractor who told us that we'd be well served to get an experienced and well regarded contractor to replace the roof on our atrium/conservatory addition on the back of our house. After reviewing the plans from the city, Ultimate Renovations confirmed that they could do the job and then set out to do it in clinical fashion. The team that did our roof was top notch and the communication with the team - led by Bob and Jeff and their extremely professional crew - was exceptional. If every renovation was like this people wouldn't hesitate to get work done. While they were at it they replaced our deck which looks great. All in all the end product was awesome and can't commend their communication skills enough!- Blair K.

"From the initial walk through it was evident we made the right decision."

"Do yourself and your family a favour and get a quote from this outstanding company."

Your search for a renovator is over! Seriously, do yourself and your family a favour and get a quote from this outstanding company. While this was by far our biggest undertaking, we had already used other companies to renovate our kitchen and main bathroom. While very satisfied with the results of those projects, the process pales in comparison with Ultimate Renovations. Bar none, this is the finest company and group of people we have ever had the pleasure to work with! Their quote is highly detailed (and they truly listen to what you want). I couldn't get over how much of the stress is removed by dealing with such an impeccably organized, professional group! It's your home, why not make your renovation a pleasure by choosing to work with Ultimate Renovations!- Chris A.

"The skill and workmanship of the workers is unquestioned."

After almost 20 years in the same kitchen, my wife and I decided it was time to upgrade from the old cabinetry and open up some space. We had several renovation companies give us quotes but Ultimate gave us ideas. We ended up changing the entire kitchen layout and we're ecstatic with the results. The skill and workmanship of the workers is unquestioned. Every detail is observed. One of the most positive experiences was the good nature of all the contractors coming into our home. The only problem that I have with our new kitchen and living space is that we can't keep the kids out of it! When the time comes to renovate our basement, Ultimate will be getting a call.- Don M.

Basement Developments
Require . . .

If you’re developing your downstairs for the first time, we’ll need to account for the electrical and plumbing systems and hookups, as well as all necessary building permits. We also spend a significant amount of time on the planning and design phases of our projects, because a well-planned project is the key to a successful renovation. We can incorporate features such as custom built-in cabinets, heated flooring, wood or gas fireplaces, or specialty wiring for surround systems and other entertainment needs.

Prepping and Framing

Necessary Building Permits

Electrical, Plumbing & HVAC

Architectural & Interior Design

Prepping and Framing

The frame is the skeleton of your house. In newer home builds, most undeveloped basements include some sort of framing for bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry rooms. We can change the layout to your liking, or, in developed levels, we may perform a full demolition of the existing finishings and start from scratch. We perform all framing and prepping services based on your needs.

Necessary Building Permits

Basement development projects often require a building permit in addition to electrical, plumbing, and mechanical permits. During our planning phase, our project managers can oversee the acquisition of all necessary permits to avoid delays in the project. Developing your basement into a legal secondary suite may require further permits and requirements, including proper egress windows and adequate ceiling height.

Electrical, Plumbing & HVAC

We work with plumbing, electrical and HVAC professionals, ensuring your basement development exceeds quality standards in every way. If your laundry room is in the basement or you’re adding a bathroom, the plumber in charge of your project will need to ensure proper drainage and adequate installation of all fixtures. Electricians will be required to connect new light fixtures, upgrade electrical panels, and/or install specialty wiring for surround systems and home theatres.

Architectural & Interior Design

Your basement is a blank canvas, and we can’t wait to get to work. At Ultimate Renovations, we ensure a seamless design process from start to finish. Beginning with design, we can integrate the style from the rest of your house with a completely unique basement renovation idea. From family rec rooms to steam rooms and saunas, our design process is vital to ensuring your vision comes to life.

Basement Development
Options Are Endless

Did you know that a basement development in Edmonton can increase your living space by 30-50%? That living space can be virtually anything you want. We’ve spent decades researching and understanding trends and opening our eye to new possibilities as advancements in technology and construction expand and increase.

Man Cave/
She-Shed

Whether you have a hobby or just need a place to escape from the daily grind, you deserve a man cave or she-shed built and designed just for you. Our architectural designers are brilliant at creating unique spaces that fit your personality. Whether you’re into sports, superheroes or getting fit, we design and create with your personality and preferences in mind.

Secondary
Suite

A legal secondary rental suite can be an excellent source of ongoing passive income to supplement single or dual-income households, complete with a full kitchen, dining area, bedrooms, and laundry. Depending on the space you have available, you can split the basement so you’ll still have room for storage, entertaining, or extra bedrooms. Based on your situation, a mother-in-law suite might be a better investment to accommodate frequent guests, aging parents, or adult children.

Family
Entertainment

The basement is a great place to let your children run free, have fun, and play to their hearts’ content. Encourage their imaginations with something creative like a climbing wall, indoor playground, ball pit, or craft room. Looking for something the whole family can enjoy? We can install custom specialty wiring for the ultimate home theatre or ensure adequate space for pool tables, board games, and video games.

Home
Business

Tired of the commute? If you run a small business, your basement might be the perfect place to set up shop. If you don’t need the extra space for bedrooms or storage, a basement can make a great place for a hair salon, photography studio, a home gym for teaching small workout classes, or a simple home office.

Making Your
Dream a Reality

Starting from scratch with a development can require more planning and strategy than other projects such as kitchen renovations in Edmonton. As top basement contractors that specialize in architectural design, we take our time in the planning phase to ensure the construction goes off without a hitch. During this time, we confirm costs, secure labour, and acquire all necessary electrical, plumbing, mechanical, and building permits on your behalf. When necessary, we find alternative temporary accommodations for our clients to minimize the impact of our presence. Our crews work well together, with an understanding and intuition that speeds up the construction process. Meanwhile, our project managers are experts at keeping things on track and communicating important milestones with the client. Our approach guarantees satisfaction with the results.

How long does it take to finish a basement?

Timelines also vary based on the extent of the project. The design process is always the most important. Better project planning helps the rest of the project go quicker. If needed, we can find you temporary accommodations to stay in while we work on your home.

What is the best flooring for a basement?

Vinyl tiles and vinyl planking are some of the hottest products on the market. The biggest advantage is that vinyl is 100% waterproof, making it a great option for basements. Laminate, carpet, and natural hardwood floors are other popular materials. Our designer will discuss all flooring options with you during the planning phase.

How should I prepare for a basement development?

As you prepare for our crews, you should ensure the area is clear of all belongings, so we can get the work done as efficiently as possible. We also recommend setting a reasonable budget, determining priorities, and making some preliminary decisions regarding finishes and upgrades.

The Myths Around DIY Basement Development

If you think you can’t afford anything other than DIY renos, think again. At Ultimate Renovations, we provide the same quality work and service regardless of your budget. Our designers and project managers work with you to make design selections that fit within any budget while satisfying the requirement for innovation and excellence. Because basement projects often involve complex plumbing and electrical systems, DIY attempts can present significant safety concerns, and the quality you can expect from our basement developers in Edmonton is unequivocal. You deserve the ultimate renovation, and we never deliver anything less.
