Knowing your budget is essential. Prices for new custom homes can range from $350 – $450+ per square foot. Without knowing how much you can spend, it is nearly impossible to decide how large of a home you can build and where, or what design features can be included:
The cost of the land
Local fees and taxes
Design and engineering fees
Home construction
Landscaping costs
Interior decorating and furnishing

We have been working with Nicons Enterprises on our last project and we were very happy with the outcome. Initially we were supposed to rebuild a new home but, due to Covid 19 pandemic, our plan turned into complete home renovation/remodelling. We appreciate all the effort done by Ian and his crew for the flexibility, understanding and knowledge that made this project happen and to end on time and budget.
After a years of saving we have finally decided to renovate our house. I was recommended this company from my friend who used this company before, after I met Ian for our first meeting, I was so excited to start the whole process. Ian made sure that we were happy and that every detail was exactly how we pictured it.He finished the reconstruction exactly on time and was always making sure we knew what his plan with every part of the house was.
A Wonderful experience working with Nicons Enterprises. Ian Nicule is very professional, knowledgeable, and patient when addressing our questions (and always with smile). We recently replaced our carpet with new flooring, and Ian walked us through the process; providing a selection of flooring samples, confirming the underlay passed condo requirements, making arrangements with the building manager for access - essentially a smooth and wonderful experience.
Ian is a hands on general contractor, on site every day to supervise trades. Our project involved building a laneway house as well as a full reno of our main house's basement. Because of our busy lives we had to rely on Ian to manage everything and the results were outstanding. I am recommending Ian and Nicon's Ent. for any building project or large scale reno. We are looking forward to hire Ian again for future renos.
