Habitat For Humanity Hamilton Tolton Avenue Photo Gallery

Habitat Hamilton is completing our first wheelchair accessible home in East Hamilton in May 2009.  Our Habitat family of three teenagers and their Dad are eagerly awaiting the chance to move into the new home with a wheel chair ramp, a fully accessible kitchen and bathrooms and wide doorways. 
 
We have had great support from a wide variety of volunteers. It started with a group from Canadian navy's  HMCS Charlottetown that started the salvage of the old building on the site. Maple hardwood floor, a claw foot tub and some relatively new doors and windows were reclaimed to be sold at our Restore and kept out of the landfill.
 
Volunteers from Dillon consulting and Students from the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship program took over to begin framing and sheathing the walls, putting on the roof and building the inside rooms.  Volunteers from area Home Depots' hung and finished the drywall.
 
Other Habitat volunteers are now putting on the finishing touches on the building including laying the laminate floor, painting, finishing the bathroom tiles and building the wheel chair ramp. 
 
Sod and landscaping will happen soon and the family is ready to enjoy the summer in their new neighborhood!  Overall it's been a great team effort -
