◆ BUILDING PERMIT QUESTIONS

Building Permit Service FAQs

Answers to common questions about choosing a permit service, project scope and what happens after an application is submitted.

I’m not sure which building permit service I need. Where should I start?

Start with the property address, municipality and a short description of the work you are planning. You do not need to identify the exact permit or service before contacting iPermit.

Can iPermit help with both residential and commercial building permits?

Yes. iPermit supports residential and commercial projects, but the drawings, approvals and technical requirements can differ significantly by property type, use and proposed work.

Can iPermit help after an application has already been submitted?

Depending on the outstanding issues, yes. Send the submitted drawings and municipal comments so the current file can be reviewed before the remaining scope is confirmed.

Does every project need engineering or multiple consultants?

No. Some projects mainly require permit drawings, while others need structural, HVAC, plumbing, electrical or other project-specific technical input. The required scope depends on the work involved.

Who decides whether a building permit is approved?

The applicable municipality or other authority reviews the application and determines whether its requirements for permit issuance have been satisfied. iPermit can support work within the agreed scope but does not control the final decision.

Where does iPermit provide building permit services?

iPermit is based in Vaughan and supports projects across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. Service availability depends on the project type and municipality.
