Basement Renovations – FAQs

You’ve got questions? We’ve got answers!

Every space is different. Some basements are unfinished while others have bathrooms already built into them, so it will really depend on your basement. All basement suites would require a kitchen, a bathroom, fire-rated protection between both living spaces, proper ventilation, electrical smoke detectors between the two units, proper exits, and in some cases their own electrical panel.  

Yes, to create a legal basement suite you will need to go through the permit process. Our basement renovation contractors can help assist you through this process and handle the entire permit application procedure on your behalf.

You would first need to look and see if your home is zoned for a basement suite.  Most local areas are, but it’s always worth looking it up on the city website. You will want to do this before you start the renovation process or consider buying a home hoping to convert the basement into a suite. If you’re unsure where to look up your home on the city website, let us know. We’d love to help you. 

There are a lot of building codes to take into consideration when turning your basement into a basement suite. This is why we think it’s so important to hire professional basement renovation contractors to help guide you through this process.
