Instead of settling, you can build a custom home. When you build custom, you don’t have to adjust to someone else’s design and layout. Instead, you’re creating a home that reflects your needs and vision for your future.

So, what are the Accessory Residential Units (ARU’s) or Garden Suites?

The back of the main house is where garden suites are situated. Garden suites have become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks to their numerous benefits. These units are small, self-contained living spaces that are built in the backyard of a property. A garden suite’s design principle is to have a distinct dwelling that blends with the surrounding.

The thought of bringing the outdoors in is high on the priority for many renovation projects, and for good reason!

There is something special about being able to relax and recharge with warm sunlight, cool breeze and a beautiful view. Beyond the beautiful views and sunny outlook, a thoughtfully planned deck or outdoor structure adds real, functional value to your property and makes it an intrinsic part of your modern home.

Due to housing block size shrinking over the years, the garage has become a storage solution for many household needs.

In modern homes, storage is limited with a lot of outdoor equipment in the garage. This means if the family has two cars, one is usually parked outside which is not ideal. Sometimes renovation is a simple as a new roller door, but in other instances, it is enlarging the garage or build new at the rear of the lot.

Sometimes the biggest transformation in a home comes from removing just one wall!

Whether you’re dreaming of an open‑concept kitchen or a brighter living space structural changes can make a huge difference. But not every wall can simply come down as some carry the weight of the floors or roof above. That’s where proper design and planning matter. Think of it as turning your renovation idea into a safe and approved plan.

Dealing with permits can feel overwhelming, every municipality has its own forms, rules, and review process!

Our team can prepare the paperwork, submit your drawings, communicate with the city, and handle any query or revisions they may ask along the way. You don’t have to chase departments, worry about missing details, or wonder what happens next. We keep everything moving swiftly until your permit is officially approved.

Before any renovation or permit drawings can be created, it’s important to know exactly what you already have existing!

As‑built measurements are simply a detailed record of your home as it exists today walls, fenestration, room sizes, ceiling heights, and anything else that matters for design and permits. On‑site measurements and creation of existing‑condition drawings are essential for any type renovations or additions.
