Every successful Toronto renovation begins with a thoughtful conversation. During your initial consultation, we take the time to understand your goals, lifestyle, investment range, and timeline. This meeting helps our team gain a complete picture of your vision and priorities—so we can provide transparent guidance on feasibility, next steps, and how to bring your dream space to life with confidence.
At Oriel Renovations, the pre-construction process is designed to eliminate uncertainty and create a clear, confident path from concept to construction. It begins by gathering information, assembling our team, and defining the full scope of work. Next, a feasibility study is conducted to understand your property’s unique characteristics, and the design is aligned with your investment goals to ensure the plan reflects both your vision and budget. If adjustments are needed, value engineering is applied to refine materials, methods, or scope while preserving design integrity. Finally, the project is reviewed and priced in collaboration with our trusted trade partners to establish a precise, fixed cost before construction begins—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

In your search for the best Toronto general contractor, you’ll typically seek a cost estimate for your project. These are usually formed without specific clarity into the scope of work and leave you at risk of surprises and unplanned costs.
In contrast, working through a pre-construction process ensures that the full extent of the scope of work is captured and correctly accounted for in the cost estimate so you know what to expect both financially and schedule-wise.
When planning your home renovation, there must be alignment between design, scope of work, and investment level. Following a proven pre-construction process ensures that your project scope is matched to your intended investment level.
Nobody likes surprises during a renovation project. A pre-construction process illuminates unknowns that can be planned for before you start. By identifying potential risks, these can be factored into the planning process, minimizing surprises to both your budget and timeline downstream.
Living in a construction zone can be disruptive. Aligning the scope of work with your investment level will set you up with a clear and realistic timeline so you can properly budget time and finances toward temporary living, if needed.
Starting a renovation project is a big decision and can have a lot of risks if not properly planned for. Going through a proven pre-construction process creates a solid plan to ensure your project stays on budget and on time. This allows you to start confidently and know everyone is on the same page.
