Renovation in Ajax
We’re 123 Contracting, a family-owned team renovating homes across Ajax and the surrounding Durham County communities. Our neighbourhood experience helps us design and build projects that suit local homes and seasonal needs.
Local relevance
Ajax sits on the shores of Lake Ontario with neighbourhoods shaped by post-war and modern development. We understand how Ajax’s climate, lot sizes and common house styles affect renovations and material choices.
Services covered
From kitchen and bathroom remodels to basement finishing, exterior updates and whole-home renovations, 123 Contracting handles projects of many sizes. We coordinate trades, permits and timelines so neighbours in Ajax get reliable results.
Why local matters
Working in Ajax, Pickering and nearby Whitby means we know municipal permit practices and the best suppliers in Durham County. That local footprint lets us plan around seasonal constraints like winter work windows and spring landscaping.
Ajax winters and aging housing stock create renovation challenges
Many Ajax homes were built in several distinct eras, and colder months can slow exterior work or expose insulation and moisture issues. Homeowners often discover hidden problems when updating kitchens, finishing basements or replacing siding.
How 123 Contracting solves those Ajax renovation problems
We start with a thorough inspection and clear, email-based proposals that outline seasonal scheduling and mitigation for moisture or insulation concerns. Our crews stage work to protect interiors during winter months and coordinate with local suppliers and permit offices in Durham County so projects proceed efficiently.
