Canata Group Construction
Halton Region

General contractor in Milton

Milton grew faster than almost anywhere in Canada, which means a large stock of homes that are now ten to twenty years old and hitting their first real round of work. We have completed more than eight kitchens, eight basements and eight exterior projects in Milton, along with commercial work in the town.

The housing here

What renovating in Milton actually involves

The overwhelming majority of Milton housing is post-2000, built quickly during the growth boom. Basements are usually unfinished and tall, which makes them straightforward to convert. Builder-grade kitchens and bathrooms from that era are now due for replacement. Old Milton is the exception, with genuinely old housing on larger lots near the downtown core.

Local considerations

Things that catch people out in Milton

The Escarpment and Conservation Halton constrain the west side

Milton sits against the Niagara Escarpment. Properties on the west side may fall under Niagara Escarpment Commission or Conservation Halton jurisdiction, which adds approvals on top of the Town permit and can restrict what you are allowed to build at all. This is worth confirming before you design anything.

Newer homes make basements cheaper here than in Toronto

A Milton basement almost never needs underpinning. Ceiling heights are already there. The budget goes into egress, fire separation, mechanical and finishes instead of structure, which is why the same square footage costs considerably less than it would in the old city.

Halton Region servicing

Water and wastewater are Halton Region, separate from the Town's building permit.
