Pickering is the closest part of Durham to our shop

Osoba Renos & Design works out of Mississauga, and Pickering is the nearest Durham Region city: 45 to 65 minutes away on the 401. We still quote it case by case, with the commute built into the proposal instead of billed as a travel fee. A full bathroom, an ensuite, or two bathrooms in one visit usually prices sensibly. A single small powder room usually does not, and we will say so before we book a visit.

Pickering neighbourhoods and what we find there

  • Bathroom renovation in Bay Ridges & West Shore

    Bungalows and two-storeys from the 1960s and 1970s near Frenchman’s Bay. Bathrooms from that era are usually compact, so the common job is swapping a tub for a walk-in shower, and the walls are worth opening to see what is behind them.

  • Bathroom renovation in Amberlea, Liverpool & Brock Ridge

    Detached homes from the 1980s and 1990s. The builder ensuite and the main bathroom are both due. Doing them back to back means one round of plumbing, electrical and tile instead of two.

  • Bathroom renovation in Rosebank

    Older homes on larger lots near the Rouge. Plumbing and subfloor are the two unknowns in a house this age, so the estimate visit is where we look at both.

  • Bathroom renovation in Duffin Heights & Seaton

    New construction, so the work is mostly upgrading builder finishes: a frameless glass shower, a better vanity, tile in place of the builder grade.

Bathroom renovation questions - Pickering

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Pickering?
A bathroom renovation in Pickering typically runs $12,000–$20,000. A compact refresh that keeps the layout starts around $11,000. A spa-style primary ensuite with a layout change, freestanding tub and heated floor reaches $22,000–$32,000 or more. The commute is built into the quote, not added as a separate fee.
How long does a bathroom renovation take in Pickering?
About 3 weeks for a compact refresh, 3–4 weeks for a standard rebuild, and 4–5 weeks for a spa-style primary ensuite. When fixtures or walls move, City of Pickering Building Services permit review adds time before demolition, and we put that in the schedule.
Do I need a building permit for a bathroom renovation in Pickering?
Yes when plumbing fixtures move, a wall moves, or a new electrical circuit is added. A like-for-like replacement in the same positions usually does not need a building permit, though electrical work still goes through ESA. We prepare the drawings, file with City of Pickering Building Services, and book every inspection.
Do you take bathroom work in Pickering?
Yes, plainly: Pickering is outside our regular no-surcharge area. Our shop is in Mississauga, 45 to 65 minutes away on the 401 depending on the hour. We quote Durham Region work case by case and build the commute into the proposal. A full bathroom, an ensuite or two bathrooms usually prices sensibly. One small powder room usually does not.
Which Durham communities do you cover?
Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, and Courtice, all on the same case-by-case basis. Pickering and Ajax are the shortest drive and price closest to our standard ranges. Oshawa and Courtice carry the longest commute.
Is it cheaper to hire a Pickering bathroom contractor?
On travel, yes. On the parts that matter, compare quotes line by line: waterproofing system, licensed plumbing and electrical, written allowances, and the warranty. If a closer contractor matches the spec for less, take it. We would rather lose a quote than win a job on a commute nobody enjoys.
