Home renovation in Mississauga is dominated by suburban detached homes from the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. Most projects involve updating dated finishes (oak cabinets, beige tile, builder-grade trim) to a more contemporary look. Basement finishing for growing families is the second-most common project, and the Square One condo corridor drives a steady volume of condo bathroom and kitchen renovations.
