Toronto houses are built for additions.
Toronto is famous for home additions. It's a truly unique experience to live in Toronto, with a variety of cultures from all over the world, amazing multicultural people speaking tens of different languages, world-class schools and healthcare, and safe and sound neighborhoods. All of these factors make Toronto a truly unique place to live, and you'll want to stay. However, most Toronto houses were built in the first part of the 20th century or even earlier, and they're not up to modern standards. There's a need for more rooms, washrooms, basements, updated ceilings, outdated interior and exterior design, inconvenient layouts, etc. Fortunately, the previous generation of Torontonians were good builders. They left us with very sophisticated and structurally sound houses that are relatively easy to transform into spacious, modern homes that will serve us for many generations. Here at Wellcore Corporation, we have perfected how to transform the average Toronto house into a truly magnificent home for the entire family.
What addition can do to my home?
So, what transformations can be done to my home through additions? In short, almost anything. Adding to the house can expand space, add rooms, washrooms, garages, increase ceiling heights, deepen basement heights, completely overhaul layouts by relocating the kitchen to a different part of the house and enlarging it, create a family room or living room, add a powder room or entire washroom, relocate or create new windows much larger than before. A common addition in Toronto these days is adding an entire floor to a bungalow or a third floor to a two-story house! If that’s not enough, we can add more space to the basement by expanding the foundation and adding more square footage to the first floor! Consequently, the second floor adds even more area. There are endless possibilities to transform your current home into something spectacular. Visit our gallery for projects we have accomplished in the past and feel the difference made by many homeowners who chose Wellcore Corporation for their additions.

What Our Clients Say About Home Additions

With Wellcor we avoided the usual nightmare of building the house on your own. Vince's expertise as a builder and Alex's efficiency to get all the trades on time made possible for us to move back 8 months later. Prior to hire Wellcor as a general contractor we've interviewed other builders and none was even close to the budget we could afford. Wellcor built our dream house and saved us a lot of money!

They not only built my beautiful house (almost) in time but also ALWAYS show up if there are anything to be patched/fixed even months after the house was built. Alex is extremely responsible which I believe is the MOST important when you are building a house.
We have interviewed a dozen of small and big contractors and when I met with Alex with his very detailed contract, my wife and I decided to go with Wellcore. More I hear about horror stories from people around me with their contractors (there are 2 houses on my street with 2 different builders have stopped building for more than 6 months), I realize that I was very lucky to find Alex. They not only built my beautiful house (almost) in time but also ALWAYS show up if there are anything to be patched/fixed even months after the house was built. Alex is extremely responsible which I believe is the MOST important when you are building a house. Anyone can build a house but I haven’t met that many responsible GC. Thanks again for building the beautiful house. I’m (almost) sick and tired of people taking pictures of my house and yelling “you have a beautiful house” daily. :P Special thanks to Vince, Nat and Eugene. It was fun building house with you.

We interviewed numerous contractors and increasingly felt discouraged and defeated... until we met Alex and the Wellcore team. They were professional, courteous, honest and responsive. Most importantly, we were on budget. With three kids and one on the way, we had no choice but find a solution to our space constraints. Moving was not an option, so we contemplated renovating and expanding our existing dwelling.

This was a large undertaking by our family. We essentially kept 3 walls and the roof. Everything else is new. Alex and his team were awesome. They guided us through the process (from inception, budgeting, permits, and construction). Of course, along the way, there were small hiccups that occurred (partially our fault) that required extra attention, but the Wellcore team guided us through everything and provided assurances to our family and our neighbours who were impacted by our project. The work was completed on time and on budget, which is a rarity in today's age. Thank you Alex for helping us reshape our house. We're pleased with the results and look forward to settling down in our modern home.
