Full home renovation in Sainte-Foy Centre

Sainte-Foy Centre is Ville de Québec's 1950s-1970s suburban brick + stucco submarket. Sainte-Foy Centre is the dominant condo-development corridor of post-2010 Québec City, with multiple post-tensioned concrete-slab towers along boulevard Laurier — kitchen and bathroom relocations in these towers cannot core the slab without a structural engineer + building-management sign-off.

What a full home renovation project looks like here

Sainte-Foy Centre is the dominant condo-development corridor of post-2010 Québec City, with multiple post-tensioned concrete-slab towers along boulevard Laurier — kitchen and bathroom relocations in these towers cannot core the slab without a structural engineer + building-management sign-off.

Université Laval anchors the south edge of the quartier, and the Ville de Québec student-housing zoning overlay restricts converting basements to separate dwelling units in single-family homes within a 1 km radius of campus.

Most 1950s-70s single-family stock here was built with R-12 walls and uninsulated slab-on-grade foundations — Rénoclimat incentives for slab insulation upgrades stack with the Ville's tax-credit program.

Quebec City whole-home gut renovations — structural, MEP, finishes — coordinated through Ville de Quebec Permis + RBQ + CNB 2020 (Quebec Edition) permitted scope on a single residential filing. In Sainte-Foy Centre specifically, 1950s-1970s suburban brick + stucco stock means full home renovation scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
