We constructed our new home with Wellcore a few years back, now that the family is growing we're looking to build again a little further out. When we were deciding to build our first home with them there were a lot of considerations that went into trying to find the right builder we could trust and felt comfortable with after hearing a ton of horror stories from people around. We went into the design stages having no clue what we wanted or needed. Working with Nat is amazing. She helped guide us through the drawings and the permitting process. She got the project approved and they started the demolition right away. Wellcore had us pick out our finishes and managed to keep us more or less on budget. The budget they provided us was insanely detailed and made it easy to follow along. As any build goes there were some hiccups along the way, nothing that wasn't managed or corrected. We made some compromises on some hvac bulkheads that I wasn't too crazy about but after living in the home I cant even remember what my issue was with them in the first place. Im glad we went with some kitchen upgrades, they really made a difference in the long run. The team overall was great, the contractors as well as the trades were always friendly and clean, the house has no issues since we moved in so as far as construction goes it went as well as it could be. Over all we are very satisficed with how the home turned out, so satisficed we want to do it again with them.

How to Obtain a Building Permit in Toronto in 2026: A Step-by-Step Guide
Obtaining a building permit in Toronto requires compliance with the Ontario Building
Code and the City’s Zoning By-law 569-2013. Most residential additions, structural
alterations, and multi-unit conversions require formal approval from the Toronto
Building Department.
The two most common causes of delay are zoning non-compliance and incomplete
documentation. A coordinated permit-ready submission - supported by accurate zoning
review and professional engineering where required - significantly improves approval
timelines.
For homeowners and investors planning duplex conversions, additions, or new
residential construction in Toronto, early feasibility review is the most effective way to
reduce regulatory risk.

Hidden Dangers of Low Estimates
Hidden Dangers of Low Estimates.We all love deals and discounts. We feel proud when we secure better mortgage rates or higher salaries. Not only does it help with family finances, but we also feel good about ourselves and our negotiating skills. And why wouldn’t we try to lower construction costs a bit?
