Tile Installations

Showers, Flooring, Backsplashes & More

Tile transforms a space.

Whether it’s a shower, tub surround, kitchen backsplash, or tile flooring, the difference is in the installation.

And installation is everything.

 

Proper Prep. Proper Waterproofing. Proper Installation.

Anyone can lay tile.

Not everyone installs it correctly.

In wet areas like showers and tub surrounds, we ensure:

  • Proper substrate preparation

  • Industry-standard waterproofing systems

  • Correct slope for drainage

  • High-quality setting materials

  • Clean, precise grout lines

If tile isn’t installed correctly, it fails.
Water damage, loose tiles, cracking grout — all preventable with proper methods.

We don’t cut corners.

 

Built to Last, Not Just Look Good

Tile work is craftsmanship.

At Canadian Crafted, every project is completed with:

  • Careful layout planning

  • Clean edges and transitions

  • Durable materials that match your budget

  • Attention to detail at every stage

We install tile as if it were going in our own home.

We install:

  • Custom shower tile

Drywall & Finishing

Code-Compliant. Clean. Professionally Finished.​

Drywall installation isn’t complicated.

Doing it properly is.

At Canadian Crafted, all drywall is installed according to the National Building Code of Canada and local Winnipeg requirements.

Proper fastening.
Correct board thickness.
Code-compliant installation.

No shortcuts.

​

Professional Drywall Finishing With Dust Control

Drywall finishing creates dust. That’s reality.

We use a professional sanding system (powered sanding head with integrated dust extraction) to collect a large portion of airborne dust during the finishing process.

It is not 100% dust-free — no legitimate contractor will claim that.

But our system significantly reduces dust compared to traditional sanding methods.

That means:

  • Cleaner air during finishing

  • Less dust migration through your home

  • A more controlled work environment

 

Protecting Your Home During the Process

Fine drywall dust can damage HVAC systems if not handled properly.

During sanding and finishing:

  • Furnaces should be shut down

  • Air circulation should be controlled

  • Work areas should be isolated when possible

We guide you through this process to protect your home’s air system and reduce contamination.

 

Smooth, Professional Results

Our drywall services include:

  • New drywall installation

  • Taping & mudding

  • Sanding & finishing

  • Repairs & patchwork

  • Renovation tie-ins

Serving Winnipeg and surrounding Manitoba communities.

Flooring

LVP, Laminate, Vinyl & Carpet

Not all flooring products are created equal.

The right choice depends on moisture exposure, subfloor condition, durability needs, and budget.

At Canadian Crafted, we install flooring properly — following manufacturer guidelines and preparing the subfloor correctly to prevent future issues.

​

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) Installation

LVP is one of the most popular flooring options in Winnipeg homes.

It’s durable, modern, and available in a wide range of styles.

But quality matters.

When selecting LVP, we consider:

  • Wear layer thickness (critical for durability)

  • Core strength and locking system

  • Manufacturer installation requirements

LVP requires:

  • A flat, stable subfloor

  • Proper underlayment (when specified)

  • Correct expansion spacing

If the subfloor shifts or is uneven, seams can separate over time.

We ensure proper preparation so your LVP floor performs the way it was designed to.

 

Laminate Flooring Installation

Laminate can be a cost-effective flooring solution — but it must be used in the right areas.

Important considerations:

  • Is the area exposed to water?

  • Is the subfloor level?

  • Does the floor move or shift?

We recommend:

  • Water-resistant laminate rated for at least 72-hour moisture resistance

  • Avoiding laminate in bathrooms with tubs or showers

  • Using 12mm thickness or greater when minor subfloor imperfections exist

Proper underlayment and expansion spacing are critical to long-term performance.

​

Rolled Vinyl Flooring

We install sheet (rolled) vinyl when appropriate.

While LVP has largely replaced rolled vinyl in many renovations, sheet vinyl remains an option in certain applications.

Preparation requirements are similar to LVP — the subfloor must be smooth and properly prepped.

​

Carpet Installation Options

We offer multiple carpet solutions depending on the space and usage.

 

Kanga Back Carpet

  • Attached cushion backing

  • No stretching required

  • Does not require full glue-down

  • Faster installation

 

Carpet Tile

  • Peel-and-stick or full glue-down options

  • Glue-down provides stronger, longer-lasting bond

  • Individual tiles can be replaced if damaged

  • Requires a relatively even subfloor to prevent visible seams

 

Traditional Stretch-In Carpet

  • Installed using perimeter tack strips

  • Professionally stretched for a tight finish

  • No full glue-down required

  • Suitable for most residential spaces

 

Proper Subfloor Preparation Is Everything

No matter the flooring type, the subfloor must be:

  • Level

  • Stable

  • Clean

  • Dry

Improper preparation leads to movement, seam failure, and premature wear.

We don’t skip this step.

Painting Interior & Exterior

Clean Prep. Premium Products. Long-Lasting Results.

A good paint job isn’t about colour.

It’s about preparation.

At Canadian Crafted, we use professional-grade Sherwin-Williams products and follow proper prep procedures to ensure long-term performance — inside and out.

 

Interior Painting Services

We take interior prep seriously.

Before any paint goes on the wall, we:

  • Patch and repair imperfections

  • Sand rough areas for a smooth finish

  • Protect flooring and surrounding surfaces

  • Clean surfaces for proper adhesion

We primarily use Sherwin-Williams Opulence, a premium interior paint designed for:

  • Washable durability

  • Smooth finish

  • Long-term performance

  • Consistent colour coverage

 

During sanding and prep, we use a professional dust-reduction system with powered sanding and vacuum extraction to minimize airborne particles.

It’s not 100% dust-free — no legitimate contractor will promise that — but it significantly reduces dust compared to traditional sanding methods.

Clean work. Clean finish.

 

Exterior Painting Services

Exterior paint only lasts if the prep is done correctly.

We focus heavily on surface preparation to ensure your coating performs as intended in Manitoba’s climate.

 

Wood Surfaces

  • Scrape loose or peeling paint

  • Sand rough areas smooth

  • Repair minor imperfections

  • Caulk and seal joints where moisture can enter

Our primary exterior wood product is Sherwin-Williams Duration, designed for long-term durability when properly applied.

 

Stucco, Brick & Concrete

  • Pressure wash to remove dirt and debris

  • Ensure surface is clean and dry

  • Repair cracks where required

For concrete-based surfaces, we use Sherwin-Williams A-100, a strong bonding exterior coating designed for masonry applications.

 

Built for Manitoba Weather

Winnipeg’s freeze-thaw cycles, moisture, and temperature swings demand proper prep and proper products.

We don’t rush surface preparation — because that’s what determines how long your exterior paint will last.

Vinyl Siding, Hardy Board, Stucco & Stone 

Vinyl, Hardie Board, Stucco & Stone

Your siding isn’t just cosmetic.

It protects your home from moisture, wind, UV exposure, and Manitoba’s extreme temperature swings.

At Canadian Crafted, we don’t just install siding.

We build complete exterior protection systems — starting with proper weather barriers behind the finish.

​

Vinyl Siding Installation

Vinyl siding is a cost-effective exterior solution when installed correctly and used in the right environment.

Benefits:

  • Affordable

  • Low maintenance

  • Wide range of colours and profiles

  • Quick installation

However, in direct and prolonged sun exposure, vinyl can:

  • Warp under extreme heat

  • Fade over time

Proper fastening and expansion spacing are critical to prevent distortion.

When installed correctly, vinyl siding remains a practical and economical option for many Winnipeg homes.

​

Hardie Board (Fiber Cement) Siding

Hardie board is a fiber cement product designed for long-term durability.

Benefits:

  • Resistant to warping from heat

  • Highly durable

  • Available in multiple textures and formats

  • Strong protection against weather

Unlike vinyl, fiber cement does not distort under intense sun exposure and maintains its structure over time.

It’s a strong choice for homeowners looking for long-term exterior performance.

​

Stucco Siding

Stucco has been used for decades and remains a reliable exterior finish.

Modern systems include:

  • Traditional dash coat finish

  • Skip trowel finish

The installation process includes:

  • Building wrap

  • Metal lath

  • Scratch coat

  • Brown coat

  • Final finish coat

When applied properly, stucco provides a durable and cost-effective exterior solution suitable for Manitoba’s climate.

​

Stone Veneer Siding

Stone veneer adds texture, depth, and visual impact to an exterior.

Benefits:

  • Does not warp

  • Does not fade from sun exposure

  • Long-lasting visual appeal

Stone veneer is installed over diamond lath with proper mortar application — similar in principle to stucco but using tighter woven reinforcement for added strength.

​

The Most Important Step: Proper Building Wrap

No matter the exterior finish — vinyl, Hardie board, stucco, or stone — the most critical component is what’s behind it.

We always install a proper building wrap system to:

  • Prevent water intrusion

  • Protect structural framing

  • Reduce costly long-term damage

Skipping this step leads to expensive repairs.

We don’t skip it.

Window Replacement & Egress Windows

Energy-Efficient. Code-Compliant. Professionally Installed.

We offer full window replacement and window repair services throughout Winnipeg and surrounding Manitoba communities.

Whether you're upgrading for energy efficiency or replacing damaged units, we install windows correctly — according to building code and manufacturer requirements.

​

Double-Pane & Triple-Pane Windows

We supply and install:

  • Double-pane windows

  • Triple-pane energy-efficient windows

Triple-pane windows offer improved insulation and performance in Manitoba’s climate, but they may have longer lead times depending on supplier availability.

We help you choose the right option based on:

  • Budget

  • Energy goals

  • Timeline

  • Application

​

Proper Window Sizing & Code Requirements

Bedroom windows must meet specific size requirements under building code.

When ordering replacement windows, we ensure:

  • Proper opening dimensions

  • Correct glass area

  • Compliance with bedroom safety requirements

If altering the structural opening size (making it larger or smaller), a building permit is required.

​

Insert Window Replacement

In most cases, the most efficient method of replacement is an insert window installation.

This method:

  • Fits into the existing opening

  • Reduces structural disturbance

  • Minimizes interior and exterior finishing work

  • Typically does not require a permit if the opening size remains unchanged

If structural modifications are needed, proper permits are obtained.

​

Basement Egress Windows in Winnipeg

If you’re adding a bedroom in your basement, the window must meet egress requirements.

Egress windows must:

  • Meet minimum opening size requirements

  • Allow safe emergency exit

  • Be properly supported structurally

We provide:

  • New basement window cut-outs

  • Enlarging existing window openings

  • Full egress window installation

This work requires a building permit to ensure the foundation and structure are properly supported and compliant with Manitoba building code.

We handle the process properly.

Roofing, Soffit, Fascia & Eavestroughs

Built for Manitoba Weather. Installed Properly.

Not all roofing companies install the same way.

And what goes under your shingles matters just as much as the shingles themselves.

At Canadian Crafted, we install roofing systems — not just shingles.

​

Ice & Water Shield Protection

Building code requires at least one course (typically 3 feet) of ice and water shield along the eaves.

This protects against:

  • Ice dams in spring

  • Wind-driven rain

  • Water backing up under shingles

In Manitoba’s climate, we recommend installing two full courses, providing approximately 5 feet of protection from the eaves.

It’s an upgrade — but it significantly reduces the risk of water intrusion.

​

Full Roof Underlayment Coverage

Many roofing failures happen when a single shingle is damaged or lifted.

We install a complete synthetic underlayment system across the entire roof deck.

This provides:

  • Secondary moisture protection

  • Protection if shingles fail

  • Added defense against heavy rain and snow melt

If a shingle is compromised, your home still has a barrier underneath.

​

Proper Drip Edge Installation

If your home does not have an existing drip edge — or if it’s damaged — we install new drip edge flashing as required.

Drip edge:

  • Directs water into eavestroughs

  • Prevents water from reaching fascia boards

  • Reduces long-term rot and wood damage

Small detail. Major protection.

​

Roofing Done Right in Winnipeg

We understand:

  • Ice dam formation

  • Freeze-thaw cycles

  • Heavy snow loads

  • Sudden summer storms

Your roof is your home’s first defense system.

We install it accordingly.

Foundation Repair & Waterproofing

Exterior Basement Waterproofing Systems That Last

Water in your basement is not a minor issue.

It’s structural risk.
It’s mold risk.
It’s long-term damage.

At Canadian Crafted, we install exterior foundation waterproofing systems designed for Manitoba soil conditions and freeze-thaw cycles.

And we don’t rely on just one layer of protection.

​

Blue Skin Waterproof Membrane

One method we use is a self-adhering waterproof membrane (commonly referred to as blue skin).

This system:

  • Is applied directly to the cleaned foundation wall

  • Creates a sealed waterproof barrier

  • Must be properly wrapped over the footing

  • Requires full surface prep for proper adhesion

When installed correctly, it creates a strong primary water barrier.

Proper cleaning and preparation are critical.

​

Delta Membrane (Dimple Board System)

We also install a dimpled foundation wrap system (often referred to as Delta membrane).

This system:

  • Is mechanically fastened to the foundation

  • Creates an air gap to direct water downward

  • Relieves hydrostatic pressure

  • Adds physical protection to the wall

Because it is rigid, it cannot fully wrap the footing like a membrane can. Water can sometimes travel between the footing and wall in certain conditions.

That’s why system design matters.

​

Why We Often Recommend Both Systems

When budget allows, we install:

  1. A sealed waterproof membrane directly on the foundation

  2. A dimple board drainage layer over top

This provides:

  • A bonded waterproof barrier

  • A secondary drainage system

  • Protection if minor foundation movement occurs

​

If a foundation shifts slightly over time, relying on only one system can create vulnerability.

Layered protection reduces that risk.

​

Proper Installation Matters

Exterior waterproofing requires:

  • Full excavation

  • Proper cleaning of foundation walls

  • Footing inspection

  • Correct membrane application

  • Proper backfill practices

Shortcuts here lead to repeat failures.

We don’t take shortcuts.

Electrical, Plumbing & Renovation Compliance Done Properly

Over the years, we’ve built strong relationships with skilled, reliable sub-trades.

But skill alone isn’t enough.

In Winnipeg, contractors must be properly registered and able to pull permits where required.

​

At Canadian Crafted, we work with trades who are:

  • Properly licensed

  • Registered with the City of Winnipeg (when required)

  • Able to pull permits for regulated work

  • Compliant with local building codes

​

Your renovation must pass inspection, not just look complete.

​

When Is a Permit Required?

Some minor replacements do not require permits, such as:

  • Replacing a light fixture

  • Replacing a faucet

  • Swapping a switch

  • Replacing a tub (in certain cases)

​

However, permits are required for many types of work, including:

  • Completing a bathroom that was previously roughed-in

  • Electrical panel upgrades

  • Adding new plumbing lines

  • Structural changes

  • Basement development

  • Egress window installation

​

Permits ensure:

  • Work meets building code

  • Proper inspections are completed

  • Your home remains compliant for insurance and resale

​

Why Permits Matter

Skipping permits may seem faster.

But it creates long-term risk:

  • Insurance complications

  • Failed home inspections during resale

  • Liability exposure

  • Costly rework if discovered

We follow the proper process from the start.

​

Renovations Done to Code in Winnipeg

Whether it’s plumbing, electrical, or full renovation work — we coordinate with licensed trades and ensure required permits are pulled when necessary.

Built properly. Inspected properly. Protected properly.

Basement Development

Legal, Functional, Fully Finished Living Space

An unfinished basement is wasted square footage.

At Canadian Crafted, we turn basements into fully functional living spaces — built to code and designed for long-term use.

Whether you're adding a secondary kitchen, extra bedrooms, or a full basement suite, we handle the entire process.

​

What We Build in Basements

We ensure:

  • Proper insulation & vapor barrier

  • Egress window sizing where required

  • Permit coordination when structural, plumbing, or electrical work is involved

  • Correct framing & load support

  • Moisture management practices

Shortcuts in basements create long-term problems.

We don’t take them.

​

Basement Kitchens & Suite Additions

Adding a kitchen to a basement requires:

  • Plumbing modifications

  • Electrical planning

  • Ventilation considerations

  • Permit approvals (when required)

We coordinate licensed trades and ensure all required inspections are completed.

​

Designed for Winnipeg Conditions

Basements in Manitoba face:

  • Moisture pressure

  • Freeze-thaw movement

  • Insulation challenges

We build with these factors in mind.
