What we walk into in Guelph

Limestone and brick Victorians through the older wards, dense student rental stock near the university, and newer detached growth in the south end. Original floors are frequently sound under decades of neglect.

Restoration over replacement, board patching, and finishes chosen for houses that will keep taking abuse.

How we specify decks here

  • Ipe, cumaru, and other dense hardwoods with hidden fasteners
  • Porch floor restoration on Victorian and Edwardian Toronto houses
  • Stair and railing packages that match the interior millwork language
  • Oil maintenance programs so the deck does not go grey in two seasons

Interior hardwood people who 'also do decks' are how you get a beautiful ipe surface on a rotten ledger. Green Hardwood details the envelope: ledger flashing, joist tape, ventilation, and a slope that drains.

Ipe and cumaru earn their cost in the GTA because they take UV, ice, and barbecue fat without the cupping you see in under-specified cedar. Cedar is still the right material for some porches and budgets — we will say so.

We also restore original tongue-and-groove porch floors on Toronto Victorians, a job that is closer to interior flooring than to a big-box deck.

Jobs Guelph keeps calling us for

  • Century-home restoration
  • Rental-grade durable refinishing
  • South-end new installs
