How We Work

From lot to key.

01

Site & Zoning

We assess your lot against City of Edmonton zoning, utility access, easements, and solar orientation. You leave the first meeting knowing what's possible.

02

Design

Custom architectural drawings shaped to your goals — rental, family, or both. We resolve the suite's relationship to your main house before a shovel hits the ground.

03

Permits

We manage the full development and building permit process with the City, so you don't have to chase paperwork.

04

Build

Precision framing, high-performance envelopes built for Edmonton winters, and solar-ready rooflines. Finishes that hold up to long-term tenancy and reduce greenhouse emissions from day one.

05

Finance & Handover

We help connect you with CMHC secondary suite financing and alternative lenders who understand garage-suite investments. Then we hand over the keys — rental-ready, energy-efficient, and built to last.

Investment

Transparent pricing.

1 Bedroom
from $200,000
≈ 668 sq ft

Efficient single-bedroom suite above a two-car garage. Ideal for rental income or a private guest suite.

2 Bedroom
from $260,000
≈ 850 – 900 sq ft

Two-bedroom layouts suited to families, long-term tenants, or multigenerational living. Final pricing depends on lot conditions and finish level.

Starting prices reflect typical Edmonton inner-city lots. Final budgets are confirmed after a site assessment and design brief — finishes, lot conditions, and servicing all influence the final number.
