Fantastic experience with them! The team was professional, attentive, and delivered high-quality work on time and within budget. Highly recommend for anyone building or renovating their home!
Andare did an amazing job renovating my house, they turned an old and boring basement into a modern and exciting place. Their attention to detail was astounding and I couldn't be happier with the results.
Andare took our outdated house and turned it into a modern, functional space. The new addition blends seamlessly with the existing structure.
The attention to detail is incredible. The Andare team has just finished building my home and I'm absolutely blown away. I've been living in here for just under a month now and I still haven't found a single flaw, you can really see their experience and craftsmanship in every part of the home.
Our basement went from an unfinished storage space to a fully functional family room. Amazing transformation, 5 stars, 100% recommend.
Andare delivered excellent quality and great service. The team was professional and made everything easy.
You may own an older Galt house or a Preston or Hespeler property. We identify its construction era before redesigning rooms. You see whether masonry and framing meet cleanly. We follow kitchen, stair and yard routes through older plans. You learn when a basement or addition can solve family pressure. We compare focused and larger work with building fabric visible. You keep river-town character without preserving a poor layout.
Your masonry home may conceal moisture and altered structural openings. We inspect both because surface repairs can hide their cause. You see where brick or stone needs support during new work. We trace joists and foundations before widening rooms. You learn whether basement dampness comes from grade or envelope. We map services before moving kitchens and bathrooms. You know what needs repair before new finishes arrive.
Grand River influence, grading and mature streets raise distinct questions. We survey your parcel because river proximity varies widely. You see whether floodplain or conservation review reaches this address. We verify Cambridge zoning against the proposed scope. You learn whether heritage context changes exterior decisions. We check servicing and parking before additions or suites advance. You avoid turning city history into a property assumption.
Your established street may offer tight staging beside mature homes. We walk the route because masonry materials need safe handling. You see where deliveries and waste can remain secure. We protect neighbouring property along narrow access. You learn when smaller loads preserve household movement. We plan weather protection before opening old walls. You know how construction will reach the work.
Your Cambridge plan should make old fabric and modern use cooperate. We connect masonry repairs with structure and moisture control. You see basement work beside grade and drainage. We attach conservation, heritage and access findings to drawings. You know what changes design, approval or sequence. We compare renovation and addition paths using one record. You receive a Waterloo Region plan shaped by this house.
You cannot infer residential permission from an existing roof and four walls. We confirm the property, current unit count, proposed use and municipal path before we design kitchens, bathrooms or bedrooms.
You also need the shell to carry current structure, fire safety, ventilation, insulation and services. We investigate those systems together, so one retained wall never forces six late compromises.
We compare retained foundation, framing, height, openings and setbacks with the plan you need. You see what the old building contributes and what it restricts.
A familiar footprint can reduce exterior change while still demanding major internal rebuilding. We price the retained and replaced boundaries separately, so the word conversion never hides reconstruction.
You may gain a better result from a new garden suite when the existing geometry works against access, daylight or structure. We test that alternative before sentiment commits the project.

You choose the use before we choose the assembly, because a workshop, guest room and dwelling create different approvals and services.
We document where conditioned space begins and ends, so storage never blurs into an unapproved sleeping room.
You add comfortable year-round use without claiming a separate dwelling.
You create private overflow space tied to the main household.
You coordinate sleeping, bathing and safe access around the permitted use.
You build a self-contained kitchen, bathroom and sleeping area after feasibility passes.
We decide whether the opening stays, shrinks or disappears before ordering windows. You see structure, sill height, drainage and exterior proportions together.
We coordinate the floor at the former vehicle threshold, so water cannot follow the old driveway into finished space.
If a 2,400 mm opening becomes glazing, we detail support and weather protection around that measured opening. You get daylight without preserving an uncontrolled air and water leak.
No. We confirm the parcel, unit count and live path with City of Cambridge before drawing residential rooms. Your brick house near Galt also needs suitable structure, access and services. You get feasibility evidence before design spending expands.
We compare the retained foundation, framing, height and openings with the result you need. A stone house near Preston may contribute useful structure or force costly compromises. You see both complete options before choosing.
We map capacity, elevations, route length and site conflicts from the main services to your townhouse. Work near Hespeler can cross parking, trees or drainage. You see the trench and equipment route before layout decisions become fixed.
Usually, when we maintain safe access and essential services. Work beside West Galt may still create excavation, deliveries and planned shutdowns. We schedule those stages, so your main home remains functional.
We cannot set an honest duration until the approval path, retained shell, service route and access are known. We separate investigation, design, municipal review and construction. You see which condition controls the start.
Send the address, survey, interior and exterior photos, known permits, dimensions and intended use. We identify the first zoning, unit-count, structure, access or servicing question that can change the conversion.
