Introducing Gauge Studio, a one stop shop for your renovation needs.

Serving Owners, Architects, and Contractors. Get reliable, budget conscious, and sustainable results for your renovation projects.

Our approach

The construction industry involves many players and many red-tape, here at Gauge Studio, our approach is to guide Homeowners through the entire renovation process - starting from vision and budgeting all the way to permitting and site supervision. We want you to have access to all the knowledge and latest sustainable choices in the industry, while also providing reassurance and having a stakeholder looking out for your interest when sometimes, that’s not the case.

The Traditional Roles

Typical for renovations, homeowners often work directly with an Architect or with a Contractor. But their roles are limited - the Architect will design the space but cannot pull permits for mechanical and plumbing work. The Contractor will supply and construct but will have a hard time designing energy efficient systems.
