Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a building permit for my renovation in London, Ontario?
+
Often, yes. Finishing a basement, removing or moving walls, adding or moving plumbing, and most commercial alterations usually need a permit, while cosmetic updates like painting or new flooring usually don't. The City of London's building division has the final say, and I can help you check before you start.
Who signs the permit drawings?
+
In Ontario, permit drawings must be the responsibility of a BCIN-qualified designer, an architect or an engineer (homeowners may also submit their own). I prepare the design and the drawing package, and a qualified professional reviews it, takes responsibility and signs. I coordinate that step for you.
Can you design my renovation if I already have a contractor?
+
Yes. Your contractor gets a complete, clear set of drawings and selections to quote and build from, which means fewer surprises and change orders on site.
Do you only do the drawings, or the design too?
+
Both. Most clients want the space to look and work better, not just to get a permit, so the design (layout, finishes, lighting, 3D renderings) and the permit drawings are done together.
How is a renovation project priced?
+
After a free discovery call I quote based on the size of the space, the design work involved and the drawings your permit needs.
