Living Room Renovation & Remodel

Turning your living room into a home - where memories are made, and family moments happen

Your living room is at the heart of your house - a place where you unwind after a long day, catch up with friends, and make memories that last a lifetime. Whether you're just looking to freshen up a small living room or start from scratch with a full-on living room renovation, the Port Perry Handyman crew can help you create a space that's uniquely you - blending comfort, style and a dash of personality.

From timeless layouts to modern living room makeovers, we'll help you dream up new ideas, pick out stylish finishes, and add that special something that makes your space truly one-of-a-kind. With a seasoned team and years of experience under our belt, we turn everyday rooms into stunning, functional spaces tailored to your family's needs.

What we can do for you

Our living room remodel services are designed to fit your home, your budget, and your personal style. Whether you're looking to make your space feel more welcoming or introduce some modern comfort with architectural features and a touch of sophistication, we'll walk you through every step of the process - from planning to final styling.

From floor to ceiling, and everything in between

Every beautiful living room starts with a solid foundation. We'll help you plan the room around your focal point - whether that's a fireplace, a built in media wall or a gorgeous rug that really brings the space together.

We'll fix up your walls, add or remove built ins and create custom shelving or crown moldings to draw the eye upwards and create some real drama. And if you're looking to update your ceiling, we can install wood ceiling beams or just a fresh paint job to add some warmth and texture.

A thoughtful color palette of bright colours, dark accents and lots of texture really helps you strike the perfect balance between cozy and sophisticated. Our design team draws inspiration from all over - from Elle Decor to international design studios - to bring that magazine-worthy look to your everyday space.

Flooring that makes a statement

The right flooring can totally transform the feel of your living room. We'll install hardwood, tile or luxury vinyl that's perfect for your decor and your lifestyle. And then we'll layer in area rugs or a patterned rug to define the seating area, add some texture and colour to the space.

If you've got a small living room, we can recommend a lighter colour scheme and a bigger area rug to make the space feel wider and more inviting. We'll work with you to pick out flooring finishes that complement your walls, furniture and lighting for a look that's cohesive and stylish.

Lighting that sets the mood

Lighting is key to setting the mood and character of your living room. We'll combine overhead lighting with some beautiful accent lamps and sconces to add some colour and warmth. A well-designed living room should feel bright and cozy at the same time, so we'll tailor the light sources to suit your family's needs - whether you're entertaining guests or just winding down after a long day.

Recessed lighting and pendants over your coffee table create a soft glow, while wall-mounted fixtures highlight art, painting or architectural features. We'll work with you to get the light and shadow just right, so your living room has real ambiance and depth.

Furniture that makes a statement

Your furniture is what really defines your room's personality. We'll help you choose sofa, chairs and couch configurations that make the most of the floor space while still leaving plenty of room for guests to lounge around. Whether you're into modern living with clean lines and metal legs or a cozy country look with soft fabrics and wood tones, we'll make sure your furnishings match your design style.

A well-placed coffee table, some decorative throw pillows and a few decorative accents like woven baskets or real or fake greenery really bring the space together. To add some visual interest, we recommend using different textures like wool, linen or jute and mixing patterns for contrast.

We draw inspiration from design leaders like Elle Decor and international design duos to ensure your living room has both modern appeal and timeless charm.

A focal point that really makes an impact

A fireplace is one of the best ways to elevate a living room. Whether it's a stone fireplace or a sleek electric unit, it instantly becomes the focal point of the room. We can surround it with natural wood ceiling beams, brickwork or built ins that frame your fireplace beautifully.

And if you add a mantel or some shelves, you've got room for art, colourful art and decorative accents, adding depth and personality to your space.

Walls that really make a statement

A thoughtful approach to paint colours and wall finishes can really redefine your room. From bright white walls that make the space feel bigger to rich colours or dark accents that add drama, the right paint sets the mood.

We often recommend one accent wall as your focal point - like a bold colour behind your sofa or fireplace. Elle Decor often highlights how contrasting tones and patterns create visual interest while keeping the room feeling balanced and elegant.

Bringing it all together

Once your walls and floor are complete, it's time to add the finishing touches. We'll layer in throw pillows, area rugs and textures to add colour and dimension, making your space feel lived-in and inviting.We absolutely love weaving in some faux greenery, wicker baskets, and decorative touches to add warmth to the room. Even the most subtle details, like the perfect paint colour, a framed painting or art collection, can make your living room uniquely yours.

If your living room is on the small side, sometimes the simplest trick is to cut down on clutter and lighten up the tones - it can make the space look bigger in an instant. Now, a modern living room really does thrive on a balance of simplicity and style, where each piece of furniture not only looks great but also serves a purpose.

Design & Style Options

We help you pick a design style that not only fits your lifestyle but also your personality and home architecture. Want a sleek and modern living room with clean lines and glass finishes? Or a cozy country feel with wooden beams, brick and natural tones? We'll work with you to make it happen.

Modern homes often benefit from an open feel and architectural highlights like built-in shelving or a statement fireplace. A country-style living room, on the other hand, might have a wood ceiling, warm tones, and plush seating. Our interior design partners will help you create a cohesive look by mixing a bit of contemporary flair with some cozy decor.

We'll work with you to create a colour palette that ties your sofa, chairs and painting together, leaving a polished and sophisticated finish in its wake.
