Building permit drawings across Canada
A permit application is only as strong as the drawings behind it. We prepare complete, clearly organized drawing sets that show reviewers what you are building and how it meets the applicable code and zoning requirements.
We work with owners, tenants, landlords, contractors and designers on new builds, additions, renovations and tenant improvements.
What is included
- Site plan and project data (use, area, parking and setbacks where applicable)
- Floor plans, reflected ceiling plans and finish information
- Building elevations and sections
- Wall types, details and schedules for doors, windows and finishes
- Code and zoning notes on the drawings
- Drawing index, title blocks and revision tracking
- Coordination with structural, mechanical and electrical consultants
Who this is for
Business owners opening a retail, restaurant or office space, landlords and property managers updating units, homeowners planning a renovation that needs a permit, and contractors who need drawings to apply for a permit.

Permit Drawings: common questions
What is included in a permit drawing set?
A typical set includes a site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, details and schedules, with code and zoning information noted. Larger or more complex projects also include structural and MEP drawings. We confirm the exact list after reviewing your scope and your municipality's requirements.
Do I need drawings for a small renovation?
It depends on the scope and your local rules. Work that changes layout, structure or building systems often needs a permit and drawings, while cosmetic work often does not. Your municipality can confirm, and we can help you find out before you spend money.
How long do permit drawings take?
Timing depends on project size, how much existing information is available and how quickly decisions are made. We give you an estimated schedule after we review your scope, and we will say plainly if a deadline is unrealistic.
