Renovation for homes in Allendale
Small 1950s bungalows share the streets with newer skinny homes and duplexes built on split lots.
1950s and 60s bungalows are a favourite for full renovations: opening up the kitchen, finishing the basement or adding a second storey. Load-bearing walls and old wiring are the usual planning points.
Infill and garden suites are common here; a contractor can help with the City permits, the build and the finishing.
On some lots a garden suite can go above or beside a detached garage, with City approval.
Turning an existing basement suite into a legal secondary suite needs permits, fire separation and egress windows.

Seasonal tip for Edmonton
