Questions Before You Start?
Permission and feasibility depend on municipal zoning, lot conditions, servicing, access, and the proposed design. We review your property before confirming the drawing scope.
There is no single size that applies to every Ontario property. The applicable municipal rules and site conditions determine the permitted design.
A basement must be assessed against the applicable local rules, building requirements, and site conditions. Tell us your intended layout so we can review the proposal.
The estimate confirms your drawings and application services. Municipal fees and any additional reports or specialist work are identified separately where applicable.
