WELCOME TO PENGUIN BASEMENTS

Basement Design, Renovation & Finishing

A basement isn’t just the foundation of your home, it can be the foundation of a better life.

Nothing beats a finished basement as the most cost-effective way to add living space or rental income to your home. Contrary to what others may have you believe, a basement renovation can take as little as 2-weeks, or depending on the level of customization, more than a month. We begin with a free in-home detailed estimate, and then we work directly with you to design, schedule and build your perfect basement. This approach ensures your basement renovation costs stay in line with the estimate. Our Smart Basements™ only use mold-free, well-insulated and fire-rated material appropriate for a basement build and covered by a transferable limited lifetime warranty. The workmanship is covered by our standard 2-year warranty. And as we’re a Consumer’s Choice and Best of HomeStars and BILD Renovation of the Year Award-winner, you can rest assured in the knowledge that each and every build we do is fully permitted and inspected to protect you, the homeowner. We can even help you with financing if required. If you are comparing basement renovation contractors, make sure you compare them feature for feature. Ask how many builds they do a year, what is covered and not covered by a basement renovation warranty, and how they schedule the build and adhere to budget and time-lines. To paraphrase Sy Syms, “An educated homeowner is our best customer.” Rest assured, a Penguin Basement is #ABasementAbove

Give Penguin Basements a call today at 416-633-7180 and we’ll show you how your basement can be the foundation for an enriched home life

Some companies promise to build you a basement in 3 weeks. We build you a basement for life.

Qasim Khan on Houzz
”Basement Bliss. No contracting work proceeds without a hiccup, but it's how you contractor deals with such issues that shows whether they care about the customer or just the money. It's obvious that everyone at this company is passionate about what they do. Highly recommended.“

John T on Google
”I always had concerns about which company to use to finish my basement. Penguin Basements put me at ease, from the sales person Dan who brought an floorpan that I would never have considered, to Vince, the project manner, who kept me well informed and made sure the project was done to the highest of standards. There were no real surprises along the way, and they made sure we were happy every step. Fantastic Job.”

"It came together ABOVE what I had imagined."
David in Toronto
"After 8 years in my house I finally had it with the messy basement. I called Penguin Basements and asked them for their advice on a design. I was really impressed by all the designs and concepts Alexander created. He advised me on all my choices, gave me a great price and completed the job in just 16 days, from start to finish. They carefully cleaned up after themselves and were always anxious to accommodate me. I'm very pleased! Thanks Again!"
Cathy & Bruce in Richmond Hill
"We could not have asked for more from a renovation company. For starters, our consultant was very knowledgeable. He knew exactly what we had in mind and met all of our requirements. Secondly, the installers were professional and efficient. Finally the basement has been a tremendous addition to our home as Greg and Mary now have a place to play with all their toys."
James & Lisa in Richmond Hill
"Dear Penguin Basements, we are still raving about the quality of the job that was done in our basement. We especially feel a big difference when the temperatures hit the freezing mark! Hats off to your crew for a great job repairing the cracked walls and finishing off the basement. Thanks again for a job well done!"
Shirley & Tom in Richmond Hill
