When you enter the renovation expenses it would depend on whether they were current expenses or capital expenses. Capital expenses would be added to the value of the property. Current expenses you can claim as part of your rental expenses. 

 

This Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) webpage has more information on the difference between current & capital expenses: Current Expenses Or Capital Expenses
