Commonly Asked Questions:

Net Zero Homes

What is a laneway home or garden suite, and what are the benefits of building one?

A laneway home or garden suite is a smaller, self-contained home built on the same property as an existing home. These homes are typically located at the rear of the property, facing the rear laneway or alley and are designed to provide additional living space for family members or rental income. The benefits of building a laneway home or garden suite include increased property value, passive income, and added living space for family members or guests.

What kind of design options are available for laneway homes and garden suites?

There are many design options available for laneway homes and garden suites, and our team of architects and designers will work with you to create a design that suits your needs. Our design options include traditional or modern styles, one or two-story structures, and different materials to complement your existing home’s aesthetic.

Are there any specific zoning regulations or bylaws that need to be followed for building a laneway home or garden suite?

In Toronto, building a laneway home or garden suite is subject to specific zoning regulations and bylaws. The City of Toronto mandates that the primary home on the property must be at least five years old before a laneway home or garden suite can be built and that the property must meet specific size requirements. Our team is well-versed in the city’s bylaws and regulations and will ensure that your project meets all the necessary criteria.

How long does it typically take to complete the construction of a laneway home or garden suite?

The duration of a laneway home or garden suite project can vary depending on factors such as size, design, and scope of work. Typically, the construction of a laneway home or garden suite can take anywhere between six and twelve months. Our team is committed to providing efficient work without compromising on quality, ensuring that your project is completed on time, and to the highest standards.
