When temperatures reach unbearable heights this summer, the thing to do is turn up the heat…The heat pump, that is!

The Home that We Built

Some of the key elements of the approximately 30-month-long, multi-phased upgrade included refinishing all the main hardwood floors; the demolition/renovation of two children’s washrooms; a painting/redo of the kitchen, followed by a painting of the hallways, foyer, dining room, and den.

A Complete Renovation To A 150 Year Old Zina St Home

“The house was in poor shape. The roof leaked, the basement leaked, and the toilets leaked.”

But the full extent of those problems would not become evident until much later in the renovation process. The first order of business was re-landscaping the rear yard including installing armourstone, and updating an existing swimming pool.

Warming Effect – How to Create a Cozy Home

The first signs of “sweater weather” has us reaching for pumpkin spice, cranberry hues and cozy comforts. And while we may complain that winter’s arrival came too soon, many of us secretly love the cold, crisp days and winter seasonal splendours. At the same time, we are bracing ourselves for the bitterly cold days and nights that won’t lie dormant for much longer.

Consider Pumping Up with a Heat Pump

Heat pump technology is similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner. It extracts heat from a source, such as outside air or geothermal energy stored in the ground. In some cases, it can be gathered from nearby sources of water or waste heat from a factory.

Red Seal Masonry

As a mason with Red Seal certification, which indicates a tradesperson has demonstrated the knowledge required for national standards in that trade, John Byham could have gone anywhere in the country. But he chose to remain in his home town of Shelburne.

A Design That Combines Plenty Of Passion, Inspiration & Luxury

Offering all of the ‘perks’ of country living and seclusion, the house is a two-level design and is just over 4,000 square feet. Kelsea mentions that despite its size and stature, there is certainly a feeling of coziness once you are inside. “The house was finished in a charcoal colour, so the exterior does stand out, but not the same way a bright white house may. Instead, it blends in well with the local surroundings which I believe gives it some extra appeal. Inside, there’s three bedrooms on the second level, one primary bedroom and two children’s rooms.

The Modern Farmhouse

“We were looking for a house in the country with a couple of acres that was either old or dated that we could put our stamp on.” When a house they’d previously loved in Erin dropped substantially in price, they immediately went to look, put in an offer and closed the deal.

Plumb Perfect

Thankfully, for Paul, the owner of Plumb Perfect, plumbing isn’t just his business, it is his passion. When I sat down with him and his wife, Terry, in their boardroom, in a renovated barn on their farm property in Caledon to discuss all things Plumb Perfect, they gave me so much to talk about that I am not sure I can fit it all in – but let’s give it a try!
