Washroom #1 of 2 – Progress Update

After completion of the homes structural repair we are on to the first of two washroom renovations for these wonderful clients.

So far, we've completed the rough framing, and self levelled the subfloor. We've also now installed the Schluter® DITRA-HEAT system throughout the floor area, providing uncoupling, crack isolation, and the foundation for a warm, comfortable finished floor. Careful planning and layout ensure even heat distribution while accommodating the custom shower, vanity, toilet, and floor vent locations.

This project involves a complete transformation from the framing stage up, including new plumbing, floor preparation, waterproofing, tile installation, and finish work.

The work you don't see is often the most important. Investing time in proper preparation and quality materials helps ensure a bathroom that not only looks great but performs for years to come, we are never afraid to show this stage while some keep hid hidden!

104 sq. ft. of Schluter DITRA-HEAT installed and ready for the next phase.

✔ Complete demolition and rebuild
✔ New plumbing rough-ins
✔ DITRA-HEAT installed
✔ Ready for waterproofing and tile

One washroom underway, one more to go. Stay tuned as this space comes together.

This front porch in Waterdown had edge deterioration, concrete spalling, and a failing railing system caused by years of freeze/thaw exposure and water pe*******on.

Instead of a cosmetic patch, this project was approached as a full reinforced restoration.

Scope of work included:

• Removal of all loose and compromised concrete
• Rebuilding failed stair and landing edges
• Mechanical surface preparation of existing slab
• Bonding agent application for proper adhesion
• Installation of reinforcement throughout the landing and stairs
• 2” reinforced bonded concrete overlay system
• Reformed stair geometry for cleaner lines and consistency
• New exposed aggregate finish on stairs and landing
• Installation of new modern black Century Aluminum railings with concrete anchors
• Concrete walkway slab lifting to bring the bottom step into Code Compliance
• Final sealing and cleanup

A lot of exterior concrete failures start at railing posts and exposed edges where water enters, freezes, expands, and slowly breaks the concrete apart over time — especially in Canadian winters.

The goal with this project was not just improving appearance, but rebuilding the system properly while modernizing the entire front entry.

Final result:
✔ safer access
✔ stronger structure
✔ upgraded curb appeal
✔ modern finish designed for long-term durability

We were brought into this project after another contractor was unable to complete the renovation.

The original scope includes two bathroom renovations and a stair remodel, but after reviewing the existing conditions on site, it became clear that structural repairs would need to be addressed before the renovation could move forward properly.

Inside the crawlspace, we identified foundation settlement along with previous structural modifications that were not adequately supported.

Working alongside structural engineers, we developed a remediation plan to stabilize the affected areas and restore proper load support throughout the space.

The structural scope included:
✔ targeted underpinning
✔ new reinforced pad footings
✔ engineered beam and column installation
✔ proper load transfer to stabilized bearing points

With the structural work now complete, we’re ready to move into the reconstruction phase and begin the bathroom renovations for these clients.

Projects like this are a good reminder that successful renovations often depend on addressing the underlying structure first — not just the finished surfaces.

Looking forward to sharing the progress as this transformation continues.

The difference between getting it done… and getting it done right can cost—or save—you thousands.

Just yesterday we were contacted by one of our previous prospective clients, again, about hiring someone else who was " more competitive".

Often, I hear from homeowners who:
• Paid a deposit and got ghosted
• Hired the cheapest quote and ended up redoing the entire job
• Are now dealing with unsafe or subpar work

Here’s the reality most people learn the hard way: price is not the most important factor.

Understanding all contractors carry different operation costs it is understandable to be some variation in pricing but, when a price is significantly lower, something is usually missing.

My uncle who has owned a successful Metal Roofing company for 30 years always told me, "Materials cost what they cost so if the price is cheaper its coming off the workmanship"

What you are actually losing:
– Proper insurance or coverage
– Experience and skill
– Quality materials
– Clear scope and accountability
– Or worse… the intention to actually finish the job

And here’s what most people don’t consider:

Someone paying fair industry wages, carrying WSIB, maintaining $5M liability insurance, purchasing and keeping vehicles and tools in proper working order, staying accountable to clients, and backing their work with real guarantees…

…is not operating on the same level as someone doing this as a side hustle.

Those are not “extras.” That is the cost of running a legitimate, professional operation.

A professional contractor isn’t just “doing the work.”
They’re reducing your risk, protecting your investment, and standing behind what they build.

Before you hire anyone:
• Verify credentials and insurance
• Look at real, recent work
• Get everything in writing
• Compare scope—not just numbers

If one quote is much cheaper than the rest, don’t rush—interrogate it, take the time and look into why.

Because fixing a bad job will always cost more than doing it right the first time.

TURNING EMPTY WALLS INTO STATEMENT FEATURES.

What started as one custom stone feature wall quickly turned into two. After completing the first installation, the client brought us back to transform a second space — a basement gym finished with the same level of precision, detail, and architectural consistency.

Every aspect of these installations was planned with intention: balanced stone variation, seamless transitions, tight joints, clean lines, and precise layout control to create a finish that feels cohesive from every angle.

A major detail in this project was the integration of a custom Fittes flush vent system with a matched stone inlay. Instead of interrupting the wall with a standard plastic grille, the vent was carefully built directly into the stonework to maintain clean visual flow while preserving full airflow and accessibility.

It’s a small detail most overlook — but details like this are what separate basic installations from true finished architectural features.

From prep and layout to final detailing, every cut, transition, and alignment was executed with precision to deliver a clean, seamless, high-end result built to elevate the entire space.

This is more than a feature wall. It’s craftsmanship built with purpose.

Clean lines. Tight reveals. Zero shortcuts.

This basement ADU finish came together exactly how it should — crisp door installs, consistent casing, and details that actually line up (because that still matters).

Most people won’t notice the difference… until they live with it. Ours still look good when you start noticing the details.

Every door in this basement was installed, aligned, and finished with intention — tight, even reveals, consistent casing lines, and custom installed hardware that actually sits where it’s supposed to. No shortcuts, no “good enough,” no hoping the homeowner won’t notice, no pre hung nothing!

Because here’s the reality: sloppy work doesn’t show up right away… it shows up six months later when things shift, gaps appear, and nothing quite feels right.

That’s the difference.

At J AND CONSTRUCTION, we don’t just build spaces that pass inspection — we build spaces that hold up over time and feel right every single day you live in them.

If you’re investing in your home, make sure you’re investing in workmanship that lasts.

We build spaces that feel right the moment you walk through them — not after a punch list.

If you’re planning a renovation and want it done once, properly, and without the usual headaches:

We've been taking some much needed time off but we're back at it!

This basement transformation was built around one standout feature — a full stone veneer accent wall.

The layered stone adds texture, depth, and a bold focal point that completely changed the feel of the space.

Along the way we also completed several upgrades for our latest client:
• Installed a new TOTO toilet
• Rebuilt existing faucets with new cartridges
• Completed minor wall repairs
• Installed a large custom mirror to open up the room

The results were so impactful that the homeowner has already decided to continue the same stone feature wall upstairs in the office — we’re just waiting on the next shipment of stone to arrive.

More progress coming soon.

Our next job takes us on a double washroom remodel compete with a full staircase renovation, underpinning the basement and some other structural repairs!

To our loyal followers, we have a lot of exciting jobs on the burner so far for 2026, we'll be sure to not disappoint!

Bathroom Renovation — Built Right From the Start With Quality Craftsmanship You Can See

A successful bathroom renovation starts long before demolition — with a clear plan, thoughtful design, and a process that leaves nothing to chance.

Every project we take on follows a design-first, build-right approach. We begin by understanding how the space will be used, what matters most to you, and how to balance function, durability, and style. From there, we finalize layouts, materials, and technical details before work begins — so the build phase runs smoothly and predictably.

This bathroom renovation is currently underway, and the craftsmanship is already visible. From precise framing and plumbing layout to full waterproofing using Schluter® systems, every stage is executed with care and intention.

Our process includes:
✔ Thoughtful design and layout planning
✔ Clear scope, materials, and expectations upfront
✔ Solid framing and structural preparation
✔ Code-compliant plumbing and electrical rough-ins
✔ Complete waterproofing and surface prep before finishes

We don’t rush critical steps!

We don’t hide shortcuts behind tile!

We are not afraid to show progress photos!

And we don’t move forward until the foundation is right.

Because a bathroom should look beautiful and perform flawlessly for years — not just pass a final walk-through.

If you’re planning a bathroom renovation and want a team that values planning, transparency, and craftsmanship from start to finish, we’d be happy to walk you through our process.

Stay tuned for the final results, we promise you won't be disappointed.
