North York is part of the City of Toronto, but the residential character is genuinely its own. Mid-century bungalows on deep lots in Lansing and Lawrence Park North, larger 1970s-80s detached homes in Willowdale and Bayview Village, and townhouses and infills along the Yonge corridor.
We do a lot of basement secondary suite work in North York. The lot depth supports below-grade rear walkout entrances, the housing stock is the right vintage for legal-suite renovation, and the rental demand near Yonge transit is strong. Toronto's secondary suite registration applies — we handle the permit, the City registration, and the inspections.
Additions and rear extensions are common in Lawrence Park North, Willowdale, and York Mills, where the lot sizes give room to build. We coordinate Committee of Adjustment hearings where required and have a working knowledge of the as-of-right zoning across most North York wards.
