Foyer & Entryway Renovation & Remodel
Make a Lasting Impression with a Renovated Entryway That's Truly Unforgettable
Your entryway is more than just a walkway – it's the very first thing your guests see, and the last thing they remember when they leave your home. We're talking about the make-or-break moment that sets the tone for the rest of your house. Whether you're talking small entryways or grand foyers, our crew at Port Perry Handyman knows how to create a space that's both stylish and practical, inviting and functional.
With over a decade of experience in entryway design, flooring, and custom carpentry under our belt - and a whole lot of know-how to boot - we get how important that first impression can be. From snazzy new front doors to tile flooring, paint, lighting, and all the decorating extras, our skilled team of handymen will work with you to create an entrance that's as durable as it is divine.
And here's the thing: your entryway isn't just a narrow little hallway between the outside world and the inside of your home - it's a key part of the overall personality of your place. When you get the design right, it becomes an elegant feature that's going to make all your friends green with envy.
What's Included in Our Entryway Remodels
Every single one of our entryway remodels is tailored around your home, your lifestyle, and your own personal design style. Whether you're talking about upgrading your front porch, swapping out an outdated entry door, or installing some fresh new tile flooring, we'll guide you through the whole process and make sure every step goes smoothly.
1. Entry Doors - The Heart of Your Entryway
The front door is basically the star of the show when it comes to your entryway – a statement piece that's got to have style, safety and efficiency all wrapped up in one. We don't just install new entry doors – we replace old ones too, with options for glass doors, custom wood designs and a whole lot else in between. When you work with us, you can count on your new door being properly sealed to keep the heat in and the cold out, and to help lower your energy bills while you're at it.
Each door we install is properly sealed to ensure that it will stand up to all the wear and tear of foot traffic, changing weather conditions and everyday use while still looking fantastic for years to come.
2. Flooring Options for Your Entrance
Now that you've got your new front door - which is sure to make a statement - it's time to think about your flooring. Your entryway floor sets the tone for the whole house – and we've got tons of ideas to make your entrance truly unforgettable. We're talking luxury vinyl, hardwood, marble tiles and so much more. With a wide choice of materials to pick from, we'll work with you to find the perfect fit for your entryway - one that's both beautiful and hard-wearing, so it can stand up to all the comings and goings of family life.
Popular entryway ideas include patterned tile, herringbone wood or even mosaic inlays to add some extra flair. For families, we often recommend durable vinyl or stone flooring – which is not only easy to clean but also super resistant to moisture.
3. Lighting & Decor
The right lighting makes all the difference in an entryway – turning it from a dull little hallway into a warm and welcoming space that feels like home. We'll help you pick the perfect light fixture to highlight your door, walls and flooring – so it all looks beautiful and easy to see.
Soft ambient lighting and accent fixtures can add a whole lot of interest to your entryway – and really show off any decorative extras like artwork, mirrors or a side table with some interesting shapes and textures. Our interior designer partners can also help you pick some decorating elements that will add a bit of modern style to your entryway, while still feeling cozy and in keeping with the rest of your house.
A fresh new coat of paint on the walls, trim and ceiling is the perfect finishing touch – helping to keep your entryway feeling light and airy.
4. Storage & Organization
Even the simplest entryway needs storage - to keep clutter out of sight while keeping everything looking neat and tidy. We offer all sorts of custom storage solutions - from shelves to cubbies to hooks for coats, bags and shoes - all designed to fit with your entryway's unique style.
For small entryways, adding built-in storage or a floating shelf above the table is a great way to keep surfaces clear and add a bit of height to your entryway. Our handyman carpenters can also install kitchen-style cabinets for a super polished look.
With our storage solutions, you'll be able to stay on top of your stuff - even when life gets a little crazy.
5. Walls, Paint, Finishes
The walls of your entryway are key - helping to set the atmosphere and create a real sense of style. We'll help you choose a paint or wallpaper finish that complements your home's architecture and adds a bit of personality to your space.
Light neutral colors can help reflect natural light and make your space feel bigger - while deeper hues or accent walls can add some real drama and contrast. Add a bit of texture with wallpaper or a decorative stain treatment - and you'll be creating an entryway that's truly one-of-a-kind.
A fresh new coat of paint and some elegant trim work will give your entryway the polish of a high-end designer home.
6. Exterior Entrances and Porches
Don't forget about the outside of your home - your exterior entrance deserves just as much attention as the inside. We can help with that - whether it's updating your front porch, repairing your roof or installing some durable tile flooring to make your entrance flow smoothly from outdoors to indoors.
Whether you're talking about a new front door, some porch lighting or durable tile flooring, our team of handymen will focus on getting both the form and function right - so your entryway feels seamless and looks fantastic.The aim is to make your entrance not just a pathway, but an experience – a real welcome mat that makes people feel at home the moment they step through your front door.
7. Foyer Furniture and Stuff
The foyer: where life meets function. That's where you're likely to set down keys, grab a coat, or just get a warm smile from the visiting company. We'll help you pick out furniture thats got your personal style written all over it - things like a great bench, a console table or an entry stand. That sort of thing.
The little touches like a welcome mat, a mirror, a pretty vase, or a light fixture do a lot to warm the room and make it feel special. And of course, paint and matching the flooring helps tie the whole space together like a bow.
Whether you're going for pure and simple or going all out for elegance, our entryway ideas will help you get the look you want and find the right materials to boot.
8. Maintenance and Long-Term Goodness
Your entryway's a high-traffic spot – muddy shoes, dropped bags, changing weather - the works. We make sure our designs can stand up to the wear and tear, using top-notch materials and workmanship that'll keep your entrance looking like new for years to come.
We also offer regular handyman services to keep things running smoothly - from swapping out light fixtures to sealing tile grout to repainting walls and fixing up the flooring. That way you can keep your entryway welcoming and functional with minimal fuss.
