Barrie's Renovation Experts — Built on Trust, Craftsmanship and Community
Barrie Renovation Experts was founded with a clear and simple mission: to provide Barrie homeowners with the highest quality renovation services available in central Ontario — delivered with the transparency, communication, and care that homeowners deserve.
What began as a small carpentry and renovation operation serving a handful of Barrie neighbourhoods has grown into one of the most respected renovation companies in the Barrie Region. Today, we employ a dedicated team of licensed tradespeople, project managers, and design consultants — all united by a genuine pride in the quality of their work and a deep commitment to the clients we serve across Barrie and beyond.
Our Story
Taylor and Co — the brand behind Barrie Renovation Experts — was established by a group of master tradespeople who had each spent years working for large renovation firms and saw the same problem over and over: homeowners were being underserved. Projects ran over budget, communication was poor, subcontractors were unreliable, and the final product rarely matched what had been promised.
We set out to change that. We built Barrie Renovation Experts around three non-negotiable principles: honest pricing, skilled execution, and relentless communication. From our first kitchen renovation in a mid-century bungalow on Barrie's east side to our most recent luxury ensuite on the lakeshore, those principles have never wavered.
Over 15 years of operating in Barrie and the surrounding region, we've completed more than 500 renovation projects — and we're proud to say that the vast majority of our new clients come from referrals by past clients. In Barrie's tight-knit community, that word-of-mouth reputation is our most prized achievement.
Our Team
The Barrie Renovation Experts team includes journeyman carpenters, Red Seal plumbers, certified electricians, tile setters, drywall specialists, painters, and experienced project managers. Every tradesperson on our roster has been vetted for both technical skill and character — because the people who work in your Barrie home represent our company, and we take that responsibility seriously.
Our project managers are the connective tissue of every Barrie renovation project. They coordinate trades, communicate with clients, manage schedules, track budgets, and ensure that every detail of your renovation meets the standard we've promised. You'll always know who's managing your Barrie renovation, and you'll always have a direct line to them.
Our Approach to Renovation in Barrie
We believe that a great renovation begins long before the first nail is driven. It starts with listening — genuinely understanding what a Barrie homeowner is trying to achieve with their renovation, what their budget realities are, and what their daily life looks like so we can design a space that works for them.
From there, we move into a detailed planning phase that includes design renders, material selection, permit applications, and a comprehensive written quote. By the time construction begins on your Barrie renovation, every decision has been made collaboratively and documented clearly. There are no surprises — only results.
Licensed, Insured and Code-Compliant
Every renovation project we complete in Barrie is executed to the Ontario Building Code by fully licensed tradespeople. We carry comprehensive general liability insurance, WSIB coverage for all employees, and professional indemnity insurance. Before any work begins, we obtain all required permits from the City of Barrie or the relevant municipality — and we see every project through to final inspection and occupancy approval.
This level of compliance protects you as a Barrie homeowner. Unpermitted renovation work can create significant problems when you sell your home, refinance your mortgage, or make an insurance claim. With Barrie Renovation Experts, you can be confident that every project is done right and documented properly.
Our Commitment to Barrie
Barrie is our home. Our team members live, raise families, and pay taxes in Barrie and the Barrie Region. We hire locally, support local suppliers and subcontractors, and are actively involved in the Barrie business community. When you hire Barrie Renovation Experts, you're keeping investment in the local economy — and working with contractors who genuinely care about the community where your home sits.
We're proud to have contributed to hundreds of beautiful, functional, code-compliant renovations across Barrie and the region — and we look forward to doing the same for many more Barrie homeowners in the years to come.
