Why Choose Design-Build for Your Business
On commercial projects, approvals often take longer than the build. With one team responsible for design, permits and construction, the approval path is planned from day one.
- Permits, site plan and building code planned before design is final
- Phased work so your business can keep operating where possible
- One contract and one point of contact from design to handover
- Monthly cost reporting, so you see every dollar as it is spent
- Ontario design-build firm since 2009

Commercial Renovation FAQs
Commercial renovations in Ontario typically cost $30 to $350 per square foot in 2026. A cosmetic office refresh sits near the bottom, a full office fit-out lands between $60 and $150, and a dental or medical build-out can reach $350.
Often, yes. We phase the work, separate work areas and schedule noisy tasks around your hours. Some projects, such as restaurant kitchens, need a short closure, which we plan with you.
Usually, with your landlord’s written approval. Check your lease for alteration and restoration clauses; we can provide the drawings and scope your landlord will ask for.
Design-build means one company holds a single contract for both design and construction. You get one accountable team for engineering, permits, trades and cost tracking instead of managing a designer and a contractor separately.
We do. We prepare the drawings, coordinate engineers, apply for the building permit and book inspections. New buildings may also need site plan approval, which we plan first.
It depends on size, permits and long-lead equipment. We give you a phased schedule at the planning stage, including approval time.
Areas we serve: Mississauga, Toronto, Oakville, Burlington, Brampton, Milton and across the GTA.
