If you have a raised deck, rooftop patio or walk-out balcony that is in disrepair or is no longer an appealing setting for outdoor relaxing and entertaining, you might feel the need to fully replace it. However, depending on the surface, you may be able to consider a makeover, where your existing material is covered by a substrate (usually installed plywood sheathing) and coated with a waterproof membrane that is comfortable underfoot and available in a variety of colours and patterns.  These types of resurfacing options can be successfully applied to outdoor living spaces that are made from traditional wood decking with open slats between boards, or interlocking tiles that may not be impervious to water. Aside from avoiding a complete replacement, added benefits include a surface that's smooth, continuous and easy to clean, and also protects against water damage underneath. However, professional installation is critical, because it's important that the membrane is intact, and ...

Putting in a hot tub or landscaping your garden is certainly a more glamorous upgrade to your home than replacing your existing windows and doors. However, it could be the one of the most important enhancements you ever make to your property. If your window and doors were inherited from a previous owner, or if you’ve lived at your property for many years, it could be worth getting a quote and considering a new installment.

TORONTO, ONTARIO, July 4, 2025 - Ownership housing affordability continued to improve in June 2025. Average selling prices and borrowing costs remained lower than last year's levels. However, despite some month-over-month momentum, many would-be homebuyers remained on the sidelines due to economic uncertainty. “The GTA housing market continued to show signs of recovery in June. With more listings available, buyers are taking advantage of increased choice and negotiating discounts off asking prices. Combined with lower borrowing costs compared to a year ago, homeownership is becoming a more attainable goal for many households in 2025,” said Toronto Regional Real Estate (TRREB) President Elechia Barry-Sproule. Greater Toronto Area (GTA) REALTORS® reported 6,243 home sales through TRREB’s MLS® System in June 2025 – down by 2.4 per cent compared to June 2024. New listings entered into the MLS® System amounted to 19,839 – up by 7.7 per cent year-over-year.  On a seasonally adjusted basi...
