Wexford is a Scarborough neighbourhood defined by solid 1950s and 1960s bungalows and semis — homes with great bones that respond exceptionally well to thoughtful renovation. Kopman Build has been upgrading kitchens, bathrooms, and basements in homes like these for over 25 years, bringing the same discipline to a Wexford Heights semi that we bring to our largest projects across the GTA.
Wexford's postwar bungalows and semis sit on generous lots and were built to last — but decades-old kitchens, bathrooms, and unfinished basements leave real value on the table. Renovating these homes means understanding their structural character: load-bearing walls in unexpected places, aging mechanical systems, and basements that need proper waterproofing before finishing. Kopman Build brings that local knowledge, backed by 400+ completed projects across Toronto and the GTA.
Dustin Kopman founded the company in 1999 after growing up working in construction through his family's firm, G& G Enterprise. That hands-on background means every project is managed by someone who understands the craft — not just the sales pitch. In Wexford's active renovation market, that distinction matters for your investment and your resale.
Full kitchen remodels from layout changes to custom cabinetry, countertops, and appliance packages — sized right for Wexford's bungalow and semi floor plans.
Primary suites, main baths, ensuites, and powder rooms — complete gut-and-rebuild or targeted upgrades to update ageing postwar finishes.
Legal secondary suites, family rooms, home offices, and full basement renovations to Ontario Building Code — including waterproofing and egress.
Rear additions and second-storey additions designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing bungalow or semi structure on a Wexford lot.
Multi-phase, whole-house renovations managed as one coordinated project — one team, one schedule, one point of contact.

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 Wexford bungalows and semis typically run $55,000–$130,000 depending on layout changes and finish level. Bathroom renovations range $22,000–$65,000. Basement finishing in a Wexford bungalow averages $60,000–$120,000 for a full legal suite. We provide detailed pre-construction estimates before any commitment.
Yes, most structural work, basement conversions, and additions in Wexford require a City of Toronto building permit. Kitchen and bathroom cosmetic updates generally do not, but any plumbing relocation or wall removal does. Kopman Build manages the full permit process — applications, engineer coordination, inspections, and sign-offs.
A typical kitchen renovation in a Wexford home takes 8–12 weeks from start to handover. If structural work or permit-required changes are involved, allow 12–16 weeks. We build realistic schedules during pre-construction and track progress openly throughout.
Absolutely. Wexford's postwar bungalows typically have full-height basements well-suited to finishing as family rooms, home offices, or legal secondary suites. We assess insulation, waterproofing, headroom, and egress requirements upfront so there are no surprises mid-project.
Wexford is an active renovation market with strong demand for updated 1950s–1960s bungalows and semis. Kitchen and bathroom upgrades consistently deliver strong resale returns, and a finished basement adds usable square footage at a fraction of the cost of an addition. Kopman Build can help you prioritize renovations for the best return on your specific property.
