Basement Renovation FAQs
Get answers to common questions about basement conversions in
Toronto
📝 How much does a legal basement conversion cost in
Toronto?
A complete legal basement conversion typically ranges from $60,000 to
$100,000+ depending on size, finishes, and whether you're adding a kitchen and bathroom. This
includes permits, inspections, egress windows, separate entrance, electrical, plumbing, and all
finishes. Contact us for a detailed quote tailored to your space.
⏱️ How long does a basement renovation take?
Most legal basement conversions take 8-12 weeks from permit approval to
final inspection. This includes: permit processing (2-4 weeks), construction (4-6 weeks), and
final municipal inspections (1-2 weeks). We manage the entire timeline to minimize delays.
📋 Do I need permits for a basement renovation in
Toronto?
Yes! Any basement conversion intended as a separate dwelling unit (rental
suite) requires building permits from the City of Toronto. This ensures compliance with fire
codes, egress requirements, ceiling heights, and safety standards. We handle all permit
applications and coordinate inspections for you.
💰 Can a basement suite generate rental income?
Absolutely! A legal basement suite in Toronto can generate $1,500-$2,500+
per month in rental income, depending on location and finishes. Legal suites command higher
rents and attract quality tenants. Your investment typically pays for itself within 3-5 years
through rental income.
