Cabbagetown's character housing stock requires a bit more care and knowledge than a new build.
Cabbagetown sits east of downtown around Parliament Street and Gerrard, running north toward Wellesley. It's one of Toronto's most intact Victorian neighbourhoods — mostly rowhouses, semis, and detached homes from the 1880s–1910s, now renovated into modern living spaces. Many units have had drywall added over original plaster, so you might encounter plaster, drywall, or a combination depending on which wall you're working with.
We assess the wall before drilling anything. Common jobs in Cabbagetown: IKEA assembly for renovated spaces (people spend on the house, then kit it out with IKEA to stay on budget), picture and shelf mounting on walls that need careful anchor selection, and wall mounting in living rooms with character fireplaces. We're quiet, careful, and respect the character of older homes.
Same flat rate in every building type — Victorian rowhouse or modern renovation.
