Durham runs from Oshawa's old GM-era streets along the Lake Ontario shoreline through Whitby, Ajax and Pickering — owner-run and liability insured along the whole shoreline.
Durham's housing stock ranges from Oshawa's postwar GM-worker bungalows to Ajax's newer subdivisions — one person is responsible for every job, from plan to finish, on either end.
IntraBuild serves Durham Region with the same owner-run service for every trade — interior painting, drywall installation, drywall repair, basement renovation and legal basement apartment conversions. An Oshawa street built for GM's postwar workforce and an Ajax subdivision finished last year need different plans — both get a written price before anything is cut into.
Oshawa's older GM-era bungalows, Whitby's two-storey subdivisions, Pickering's lakeside properties — painted right across every era of Durham housing.
