Basement Permit Drawings

Start your basement renovation with code-compliant, permit-ready plans.

Finishing or renovating a basement in Ontario? Before the first hammer swings, you’ll need detailed, Ontario Building Code (OBC) compliant basement permit drawings. At Neo-Scenic Designs, we specialize in professional Basement Permit Drawings that streamline approvals and protect your investment.

We’ve helped homeowners across Ontario legally transform unfinished spaces into income suites, home gyms, offices, media rooms, and more—with plans designed for fast municipal approval.

Why You Need Basement Permit Drawings

    Basement renovations require a building permit when you add or alter:

    • Bedrooms, bathrooms, or kitchens

    • Separate entrances or egress windows

    • Plumbing, HVAC, or structural elements

    • Legal basement apartments (second units)

    Skipping the permit can result in stop-work orders, insurance issues, or problems during resale.

What’s Included in Our Basement Building Permit Drawings?

    Each set of drawings includes all necessary information for review by your local building department:

    • Existing and proposed floor plans

    • Demolition plans (if applicable)

    • Dimensions, insulation, and wall assemblies

    • Fire separations and egress window details

    • Electrical and plumbing layouts (schematic only)

    • Notes to meet Part 9 or Part 11 of the Ontario Building Code

    • Optional: Second unit layouts with OBC fire and sound separation compliance

    Stamped by a BCIN-certified designer and tailored to your municipality’s requirements.
