Major renovation and expansion of a waterfront property, featuring a new roof structure, extensive landscaping, and a design accommodating family living or boutique Bed and Breakfast potential.

Semi-retirement and a move North were the driving forces behind our clients finding their dream property. With an acre of waterfront land and a boathouse that needed some TLC, they could see the potential.

The project involved a major renovation and addition to the main house. An entire new roof structure to the existing building including a large dormer to increase natural light, recladding, and new aluminum joinery.

Also, the large extension doubled the size of the existing floor plan, and was designed to accommodate either their family or draw an income as a boutique Bed and Breakfast.

As the owners are avid gardeners and have a love of the outdoors, extensive landscaping was undertaken to make the most of their passion.

Our clients’ vision is now a reality.

“Whitmore We don’t think there are enough positive adjectives to describe our experience with Erik and GBL Builders. We have renovated a number of houses over the years, some several times, but we have never built before and are now at the end of our architecturally designed house build, a project we have been planning for years. We wanted to enjoy the experience and we certainly have more than enjoyed the process, it has been an amazingly positive experience with Erik and his wonderful team. Someone recently commented to us that it is such a privilege to be able to build your own home, we certainly agree, especially if it can be as pleasurable as it has been with Erik and his team. Erik has an excellent team of builders whose workmanship can’t be faulted. His passion for quality has meant we have a home we can truly be proud of. Erik also surrounds himself with a group of quality sub-contractors who have been excellent to deal with and have also performed high quality work. He is a most trustworthy individual and his passion for order and organization, his foresight, effective communication, problem solving and good humour has ensured a smoothly running build. It has truly been a pleasure to work with him and we would wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend Erik and his team at GBL”
