Design ideas for a contemporary staircase in Toronto.

Highfield Road

Contemporary Staircase, Toronto

The owners hired our real estate business to assist them with the sale of this property. The clients were concerned about getting the right price for their home, so they contacted LB LounsBury Group to begin interior and minor exterior renovations to the property in order to increase its value. When LB LounsBury Group arrived at the Highfield location, the interior had lathe and plaster throughout, knob-tube wiring and old mechanical systems. The flooring was of original hardwood, the back deck was rotting and the front porch and walkway were deteriorating. After removal of all outdated materials and features, walls were reframed and new electrical systems were added. The original heating method for this property was the use of outdated radiators. We then installed new completely new HVAC system throughout the entire home. We added new sub-flooring, hardwood flooring, baseboard and trim. New glass railings were installed to the staircase and to the front of the house, and we built a new deck in the rear of the property. To give it a fresher look, we poured a new walkway and front steps to the house and completed minor landscaping of the front yard. This project was completed in 45 days, from initial meeting to offer date. Upon completion, the property increased in value by 35%.
