Our Past

Founded in 1912, Tonecraft Paint & Varnish Co. Ltd. has a rich and proud history as a family-owned business. Our roots in manufacturing and selling paint and varnish laid the foundation for our journey to become a leader in the real estate industry. In 1955, our first store opened on College Street in Toronto, marking a new chapter in our story. The opening of the Tone-Craft Paint & Varnish Co. Ltd. store was a testament to our commitment to providing quality products and exceptional customer service.

Over the years, as we expanded nationally and rebranded as Color Your World, our focus shifted towards real estate development. This move allowed us to better serve our customers by building and managing the properties that housed our Color Your World stores. Our success in the real estate sector was the result of our unwavering commitment to excellence and our passion for making a positive impact in the communities we serve.

Today, we are proud to be known as Strongman Properties Inc., a testament to our continued growth and success. Our proud heritage and rich history are not just memories, but a source of inspiration for the future. We remain true to our roots and values, while embracing new opportunities and innovative approaches. We are excited about the future and are committed to building on our success, while maintaining the same level of excellence and customer service that has made us a leader in the real estate industry.
