Common questions
How much does it cost to build a custom home in Toronto?+
Expect roughly $350–$650 per square foot in construction cost in 2026, depending on finish level and lot conditions. Land, design fees, and soft costs are on top. We give you an itemized, fixed-scope estimate before anything starts.
How long does a custom home take in Toronto?+
Most custom homes in the GTA take 9–24 months from planning to move-in, depending on complexity, permit timelines, and finish level.
Do you handle the permits?+
Yes. We manage the full City of Toronto permit application process, including zoning review, the Committee of Adjustment where a minor variance is needed, and building code compliance.
Can you build on a teardown lot?+
Yes. We handle demolition, excavation, and the ground-up rebuild. A teardown-and-rebuild is often the better value versus a deep renovation once a home needs major structural and systems work.
Do I need my own architect?+
You can bring your own architect, or we can coordinate design professionals we've worked with across the GTA. Either way we manage the gap between the drawings and the build.
Do you build custom homes across the GTA or just Toronto?+
Across the GTA — Toronto, North York, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Markham, Oakville, King City, and the surrounding areas, including estate lots.
