Reno Tour 2024

Reimagined spaces to inspire you

By Anita Murray

It’s not often you can tour a renovated home in person — unless it’s the RenoTour Parade of Homes, that is.

Now in its 10th year, this annual showcase of fabulous, remodeled spaces is your opportunity to see the work and workmanship of top Ottawa renovators, ask questions on site and research companies for your own project.

There are a whopping nine homes you can visit, representing the work of renovators and designers who are all part of RenoMark, a national program that identifies professional contractors who have signed on to a code of conduct that protects the homeowner.

Presented by the Greater Ottawa Home Builders’ Association (GOHBA), you’ll see projects ranging from kitchens and main-floor renovations to whole-home transformations and a coach house. Participating companies are Amsted Design-Build, ARTium Design Build, GoodStory, Lagois Design-Build-Renovate, MBHE Inc., Ottawa General Contractors, RND Construction, Spectrum Kitchen & Bath Design, and The Conscious Builder.

The one-day tour is offered free of charge. For details, scan the QR code or pick up a brochure at the GOHBA booth at the Ottawa Fall Home Show Sept. 26-29 at the EY Centre.

Want to revisit the homes after the tour? Many of them will be available for 3D virtual walk-throughs after the event at RenoTour.ca.
