The Michener House has undergone an in-depth and lengthy restoration process, including in the 1980s, early 2000s, and most recently in 2023.

The earliest renovations included updating the plumbing, electrical, and heating systems, as well as rebuilding the porch and portico (with the original materials) and a year-long debate on how best to move and restore the interior staircase to its original location. The exterior of the house was painted white with brown trim and the porch was painted grey-blue to match the upstairs flooring.

Financial support from both the Provincial and Municipal Governments allowed for the replacement of the roof with cedar shingles in 2014 and siding repairs in 2022.

The flashing and high-impact points of the building were also repaired in 2022 by Denzil Paterson of Central Valley Furniture. The house is now presented as it would have been during the Michener family’s time in 1899-1900, with both permanent and temporary exhibitions.

In 2023 renovations took place inside of the house to reinstate an original doorway on the second floor, uncover the hardwood floor in the 1918 addition, install overhead lighting throughout, and perform general maintenance on the plaster walls.
