Garage Design Build

Worked with Kelvin and Eliza on getting the drawings and permit. Kelvin was very informative and helpful. I have an older home and he was able to find me a survey from 1924! Very impressed with how persistent he is in getting me the information, he ended up saving us $3000 from having to complete another survey.

Eliza was responsive to the changes the City required and when I had questions, she replied within the day. She was very flexible on the designs and allowed us to proceed with the design we wanted. I have to say, doing this as a home owner (not developer) for the first time, I really appreciated having the help Kelvin and Eliza provided. Will highly recommend!

Permit works is unique professional for permit application

I know Permitworks from Homestar, and they are unique company that focus on the permit application. So I can be released from the designing and negotiating works with the City. Kelvin, Louise and Salik are all very professional and quick response designer. They helped me get a permit for 2nd legal unit basement permit in Toronto. I am so happy that I can start my project now.

Deck Drawings & Permit

I used Permit Works to help create the design drawings for our deck project, and to facilitate obtaining the permit for this project. Everyone on the team was prompt with their communications and the drawings look great. Their help with getting the permits took away some potential stress we might have had to take on ourselves. Overall the Permit Works team were easy to work with and I would use them again in the future.

Full Home Renovation Permit

I hired Permit Works for my home renovation plans and they were great to work with. From the very beginning Kelvin was quick with his replies and throughout the process Girgis was very responsive as well. They handled everything with the city until the permit approval.

I called them on a Thursday just before the holidays and I had an appointment for site measurement that next Monday. They arrived on time, they were very professional and friendly. They provided detailed answers to all my questions. They are very responsive via text and phone throughout the entire process. They were very friendly and professional. I was extremely satisfied with their service. Also, they are very reasonably priced compared to others.

Terrific Job on Legal Basement Apartment

Kelvin and his team at Permit Works were amazing to work with. I had numerous follow-ups, questions, design changes and each time they dealt with me courteously and professionally. My jurisdiction the Town of Whitby had also dealt with them several times and spoke very highly of them. I will definitely be using them again for future projects and have already recommended them to a bunch of my neighbours.

Thanks for everything Permit Works team!

Basement Project

Hired PW to make drawings and submit an application to add a bathroom as part of overall basement renovations. PW came out, scanned our property, did make the drawings based on our plan and the city's requirements, which were submitted after we reviewed and approved the plans. The city did have a few questions upon reviewing the submission, of which were answered and a permit was issued promptly upon receiving those answers.

Custom Home

I had a custom home designed and built by Permit Works. I couldn’t be happier with the service. From consultation to drawings and obtaining the permit, I didn’t have to stress as much as I thought I would. The team was very professional and extremely knowledgeable in every aspect. I would recommend Permit Works for any job, simple to complex. Thanks all !
