It’s pretty incredible how extreme our weather is through the Canadian cyclical three-sixty-five. We’ve learned how to cope with the scorching heat of summer as well as the icy blues of winter and other than a bit of small talk whinery, we get along just fine. There are a lot of opinions and discussions on renovating in the winter that can leave you with a lot of questions: are contractors cheaper in the winter? Is it safe to paint inside with the windows closed? And what the heck are VOCs?!?!
