Thank you for your question.

Yes you can claim renovation expenses on your t2125.

Please read this link to know which expenses you can claim, and where you will need to  put them on your T2125 form.

Assuming you have clicked on self-employment, and have accessed the T2125, you can put office renovations under office expense, or other expenses.
