Toronto's Trusted Luxury Renovation Contractor
Wexler Custom Builders has delivered luxury home renovations across Toronto for over 25 years. Robby and Mark personally oversee every project — from the initial consultation through the final walkthrough. That hasn't changed since they founded the company in 2001, and it won't change regardless of the scale of your renovation.
Toronto's luxury housing stock is extraordinary — and complex. Forest Hill's Tudor revivals, Rosedale's red-brick Edwardians, Lawrence Park's Georgian colonials, and Bridle Path's estate homes all carry unique architectural character, heritage constraints, and hidden-system challenges. We've renovated all of them. We know what to expect when the walls open — and we manage it transparently.
Our approach is built around value engineering: maximizing what your renovation budget delivers without compromising the result. We challenge costs without cutting corners, source materials strategically, and make decisions the way a careful owner would. The result is a renovation that feels like more than you paid for.
Over 200 renovations and custom builds completed. Not one disappointed client.
