Markham Building Permit FAQs
Do I need a building permit in Markham?
The City of Markham requires a permit for additions, structural alterations, basement apartments, decks above a set height, garages and work affecting exits or plumbing. Interior finish work usually does not. Tell us your scope and we will confirm what Markham requires before drawings start.
What does Markham require in a building permit application?
A Markham submission generally includes a site plan showing setbacks and lot coverage, existing and proposed floor plans, elevations, sections and structural details covering beams, framing and foundations. Grading and energy compliance information are requested depending on scope.
Can you prepare drawings for a home renovation in Markham?
Yes. Interior renovations that move or remove walls, enlarge openings, change stairs or alter plumbing need permit drawings and, where structure is affected, engineered design. We prepare the architectural and structural sides together.
Do you provide renovation inspections in Markham?
Yes. We carry out structural assessments and issue engineer letters for Markham properties — reviewing completed renovation work, assessing foundation or framing concerns, and responding to requests from the City or a lender.
Can you design a basement apartment in Markham?
Yes. Markham permits additional residential units subject to zoning and parking provisions, with the Building Code governing fire separation, sound transmission, egress windows and ceiling height. We confirm the local position for your property first.
Do you handle load-bearing wall removal in Markham?
Yes. We establish what the wall carries, design the replacement beam and supports, confirm the load path to the foundation, and provide the sealed drawings Markham requires for a permit.
What if work in Markham was completed without a permit?
We assess what was built, prepare as-built drawings, and identify what is required for a retroactive permit including any remedial work. Send photos and we will explain the likely route.
