Home Renovation in Drumbo
Renovations for Drumbo's village homes and the farm properties east of Woodstock.
Drumbo is a small village in the Township of Blandford-Blenheim, east of Woodstock, and most renovation work there is either in older village houses or on the farm properties around it. The village houses tend to be modest, with small kitchens, one main bathroom and dated finishes, and they respond very well to a well-planned renovation: the kitchen wall opened where the framing allows, soffits removed, the tub replaced with a tiled walk-in or curbless shower, and one continuous floor across the main level. Farmhouses bring more to work around. Floors that slope and walls that are out of square add labour to every finish. Electrical extended piece by piece over decades needs a proper look before anything new is tied in. Wells often deliver hard water, which matters for fixtures and glass. And septic capacity is the question behind adding any bathroom, laundry or bedroom, which is a permit matter rather than a preference. Long-time owners who want to stay on the property often need the aging-in-place work first: a main-floor bedroom and laundry, blocking for grab bars, wider doors and a shower without a step. Every job starts with a site visit, and travel is built into the quote.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge more to work outside Woodstock?
Not inside the city. For Ingersoll, Tavistock, Innerkip, Plattsville, Drumbo and rural properties across Oxford County, travel is built into the quote up front rather than added afterwards, so the number you agree to is the number.
What is different about renovating a rural property?
Mostly the things you cannot see. Adding or moving a bathroom or laundry on a septic system raises the question of whether the system can take it, which is a permit matter. Well water is often hard and sometimes carries iron, which matters when you choose fixtures and shower glass. Older farmhouses have floors and walls that are well out of level and square. All of it is looked at during the quote.
