Kitchen remodeling in Cap-Rouge

Cap-Rouge is Ville de Québec's 1900s-1940s riverside cottages submarket. The Vieux-Cap-Rouge core (around the rue Saint-Félix church) sits inside a PIIA overlay protecting 1900s-1940s riverside cottages and the original 1635 French settlement site — exterior alterations along the historic axis route through the district architect for 4-8 weeks of design review.

What a kitchen remodeling project looks like here

The Vieux-Cap-Rouge core (around the rue Saint-Félix church) sits inside a PIIA overlay protecting 1900s-1940s riverside cottages and the original 1635 French settlement site — exterior alterations along the historic axis route through the district architect for 4-8 weeks of design review.

Cap-Rouge sits along the Saint-Laurent River cliff line, and any work within 15 m of the river edge requires MELCCFP shoreline-protection review plus a Ville de Québec arrêté riverain compliance letter.

The Cap-Rouge transit-corridor zoning amendment (2022) opened up several inland blocks to ADU conversion — single-family owners can now legally add a basement or garden-suite secondary unit without a derogation mineure.

Quebec City kitchens — galley to open-plan conversions, MEP relocations, custom cabinetry — scoped against Ville de Quebec Permis + RBQ + CNB 2020 (Quebec Edition) on permitted layouts. In Cap-Rouge specifically, 1900s-1940s riverside cottages stock means kitchen remodeling scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Quebec City scoping flow factors piia vieux-cap-rouge and code de construction du québec into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

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.
