A Renovation Contractor You Can Actually Trust

When you hire a home renovation contractor in Oshawa, you're trusting one person to run the whole job — the trades, the schedule, the budget, and the standard everything is held to. That's exactly what Cornerstone Construction does. We're an insured, WSIB-covered renovation contractor serving Oshawa and Durham Region, and we run every project as one coordinated build: one team, one contract, one point of contact.

Whether it's a single main floor or a full home taken back to the studs, the standard is the same — Level 4 drywall, daily cleanup, a locked price, and a 5-year workmanship warranty. You also get a full Owner's Manual at handover. Changes to the scope are priced and approved by you in writing before the work happens. Just renovations done right.

"Mike was the most professional and punctual contractor I have ever worked with. He understood how to bring my 10-year vision into reality. If it is not straight then it is not correct. He will make sure that it is. He will now be the only contractor to touch any part of my house."

Choosing a Contractor in Oshawa

Questions to Ask Before You Hire

Hiring the right home renovation contractor is a big decision. Here is what Durham Region homeowners ask us most — and the honest answers.

How do I choose a reliable home renovation contractor in Oshawa?

Start with proof, not promises. Make sure the contractor carries liability insurance, is registered with WSIB, and uses licensed trades for electrical and plumbing. Ask to see real local projects and a written warranty. A good sign of a contractor you can trust is simple: they put the price, the schedule, and the warranty in writing before any work begins. We do all of that.

Is Cornerstone Construction insured and WSIB covered?

Yes. Licensed where required, insured. We carry $5,000,000 liability insurance and current WSIB coverage, with 35+ years of hands-on experience and 300+ completed projects. Electrical and plumbing are done by licensed trades, and we pull permits wherever your job requires one. Ask for proof anytime.

How much does a home renovation cost in Durham Region?

Every home is different, so the honest answer depends on the size of the project and the finishes you choose. What does not change is how we price it. You get a fixed price in writing, and our Price Lock Guarantee means that number does not move unless you change the scope. Any change is priced and approved by you in writing before the work happens.

How do you keep my renovation on time and on budget?

Two guarantees, both in writing. Our Price Lock Guarantee holds your price steady once you sign. On projects of $15,000+ that run about a month or longer, our $300/Day On-Time Guarantee credits you $300 for each day we miss the completion date for reasons within our control. You also follow progress in real time through your private project portal, so you know where things stand.

What is it like to live through a renovation with Cornerstone?

Cleaner and calmer than most people expect. We seal off the work area with sealed dust walls, run HEPA air scrubbers on heavy dust days, and clean up at the end of each day on site. You get one point of contact and full visibility, so you know what is happening and what comes next.

What makes Cornerstone different from other Durham Region contractors?

35+ years of experience and 300+ completed projects, backed by written guarantees: a locked price, an on-time guarantee on larger projects, a real-time project portal, daily cleanup, and a 5-year workmanship warranty. We treat your home with commercial-grade discipline. We Listen, We Build, We Deliver.
