Added Living Space

Basement Renovations

Transform unused square footage into premium living space — rec rooms, in-law suites, home theatres, and more across Barrie, Lake Simcoe, and the Toronto GTA.

Overview

Your Basement Is Valuable Space. Use It.

Most unfinished basements represent between 600 and 1,200 square feet of wasted potential sitting beneath your home. Campoli Custom Builds specializes in turning that raw space into premium, code-compliant living areas that add genuine value — both to your daily life and to your property's resale appeal.

We handle all aspects of the renovation, including Ontario Building Code permit applications, egress window installations for legal bedroom requirements, plumbing rough-in for bathrooms and wet bars, electrical upgrades, and every finishing detail down to the trim. Our clients in Barrie, Lake Simcoe, and the Toronto GTA regularly tell us their finished basement has become the most-used room in the house.

Rec Rooms & Entertainment Spaces

A finished basement makes your home meaningfully larger. Whether you want a dedicated rec room, a home theatre with acoustic treatment and projector wiring, or a wet bar for entertaining, we design and build spaces that feel like genuine living areas — not afterthoughts.

In-Law Suites & Secondary Suites

Ontario's housing market and changing family structures have made secondary suites one of the most in-demand basement uses. We handle all permit applications, egress windows for legal bedrooms, separate entrance options, full bathroom additions, and kitchenette installations to Ontario Building Code.

Home Offices & Dedicated Spaces

The basement is often the quietest part of the home — ideal for a dedicated home office, music studio, or creative space. We design with soundproofing, lighting, and electrical capacity for monitors, equipment, and video calls in mind.

How It Works

Our Basement Renovation Process

01

Assessment & Planning

We evaluate your basement's existing conditions — ceiling height, moisture, load-bearing points, and existing rough-ins — and build a scope of work around what is possible and what will last.

02

Framing & Insulation

Walls are framed, insulation is installed to current Ontario building code, and egress windows are cut and set if the layout requires them for legal occupancy.

03

Plumbing & Electrical

Rough-in plumbing for wet bars, bathroom additions, or laundry areas is completed. Electrical panels are assessed and upgraded if needed, and all wiring is inspected before walls close.

04

Finishing & Final Inspection

Drywall, painting, flooring, pot lights, cabinetry, and all finishing details are completed. A final permit inspection is scheduled before your walkthrough.
