FAQs

Answers to our most frequently asked questions about our Building Permit Drawings services...

What kind of drawings are needed for a building permit?

A typical building permit package includes a site plan, existing and new layout plans, elevations and details. The size of your project, where you're building and what you're building will determine exactly what you will need.

Do I need drawings from an engineer or architect to get a building permit?

In most cases in Ontario the homeowner is exempt from requiring a designer in order to permit a project at your home however; you must have drawings to provide to your municipality. 

Is it illegal to do a major interior renovation without a building permit?

In Ontario it is required to have a building permit for all new structures over 160 sqft., all major renovations and when you are modifying your existing structure. For example, adding a window is modifying the existing structure and could be subject to a building permit. Municipality, zoning and the Ontario Building Code will all determine what is required to apply for a permit.

Can a building permit be denied?

Permitting your project is a bit of a process. Where it is always up to your municipality whether or not a permit will be issued, most municipalities are helpful in directing you in the right direction to get your project a permit. Having someone to help you through the process can help you navigate the Provincial and municipal laws.

  • Location of site
