Bloor West Village's 1930s and 1950s brick homes have character — and real potential. Kopman Build helps families unlock that potential through second-storey additions, open-concept kitchen renovations, and basement finishing projects delivered with the discipline built over 25 years in Toronto.
Full second-storey additions over bungalows and detached homes — structural engineering, permits, and construction as a single turnkey scope.
Open-concept kitchen remodels including load-bearing wall removal, custom cabinetry, countertops, and full appliance packages.
Family rooms, home offices, legal secondary suites, and full basement renovations to Ontario Building Code.
Primary ensuites, main baths, and powder rooms — complete gut-and-rebuild or targeted upgrades in older Toronto homes.
Multi-phase whole-house renovations managed as one coordinated project — one team, one schedule, one point of contact.
Rear additions and side-hall extensions designed to integrate seamlessly with the existing brick structure and maximize usable floor area.
We visit your property, listen to your goals, and document the project in writing — scope, budget, and timeline.
A detailed line-item estimate with allowances and contingencies, so you know the number before committing.
We manage all permit applications, engineering consultants, and approvals — nothing falls through the cracks.
Full-time site supervision, weekly updates, and open-book cost tracking throughout the project.
Structured handover with all documentation, warranties, and a 12-month attendance window post-completion.
Kitchen renovations in Bloor West Village typically run $65,000–$160,000+ depending on layout changes and finish level. Basement finishing ranges from $70,000–$130,000. Second-storey additions on the neighbourhood's 1930s–1950s brick bungalows generally start around $250,000. We provide detailed pre-construction estimates before any commitment.
Yes. Bloor West Village falls under City of Toronto jurisdiction, so structural renovations, second-storey additions, basement conversions, and kitchen layout changes that affect load-bearing walls all require building permits. Kopman Build manages the full permit process — applications, drawings, inspections, and final sign-offs.
Yes, and it's one of the most common projects we deliver in Bloor West Village. The neighbourhood's detached and semi-detached brick homes are well-suited to second-storey additions, though they require careful structural assessment of the existing foundation and walls. We coordinate engineering, permits, and construction as a single turnkey scope.
The most common projects we see in Bloor West Village are second-storey additions to bungalows, open-concept kitchen renovations that remove the walls separating the kitchen from the dining and living areas, and basement finishing for additional family space or a legal secondary suite. The family-oriented character of the neighbourhood drives demand for more usable square footage.
A kitchen renovation typically takes 8–14 weeks. A basement finishing project runs 10–16 weeks. A second-storey addition — the most involved project type common in Bloor West Village — generally runs 6–9 months from permit approval to handover. We build realistic schedules accounting for permit timelines and hold to them.
