Complete Home Rebuild Erin, ON
Approximately three years before completion, the Graydon family lost their home to a fire. Initially, another contractor was hired to perform restoration services, but after significant expense and effort, it was determined that the best course of action was to demolish the remains and undertake a complete home rebuild. Dissatisfied with their previous contractor, the Graydons brought Hudson Restoration on board in March 2020. This project encompassed every aspect of a Tarion new home build, from foundation to finishes. Given that the home was on conservation land, it required specific engineering considerations such as elevation and flood proofing, which needed time for approval. Despite these challenges, Hudson Restoration completed the rebuild in just over six months, ready for the Graydons to move in.

After a devastating fire destroyed their home, the Graydon family faced complications with their initial contractor, leading to the decision to demolish the structure and rebuild from scratch. The property’s location on conservation land added specific engineering and approval challenges.
Hudson Restoration took over the project in March 2020, managing every detail of the Tarion new home build process. This included addressing the unique engineering requirements for elevation and flood proofing due to the conservation land status.
In just over six months from excavation to move-in, Hudson Restoration successfully completed the new home build. The project, valued at approximately $950,000, met all engineering requirements and was delivered to the Graydons’ complete satisfaction, restoring their home and peace of mind.

"The team at Hudson Restoration provide the best customer service and support I have ever encountered. We had a house fire in 2017 and lost our primary residence. As part of the insurance process, we were working with another contractor initially and while they are a recognized name, they seemed overwhelmed by the scope of the project. The team worked with every level of planning, architecture, town, Conservation Authority, utility companies and insurance. During all this time, we were kept fully in the loop and felt part of the team while Steve took care of all the discussions and ensured we were represented. During the build the team co-ordinated with the trades and professionals to build our new house from the ground up, continuously discussing the process with us, giving almost daily updates at times, and solicited our input at all stages of the build. This was a 3-year process for us, and we couldn't have succeeded without the huge amount of help, concern and ownership that this team took in our project. Their personal touch as a team from Steve down is inspiring, their attention to detail is outstanding and the work they deliver is the top of its class."
