Find Clear, Simple Answers to All Your Basement Concerns

The short answer is, yes you can turn your basement into an apartment. Without any disruption to the way you live, you can remodel your basement into a rental apartment from which you can earn extra income. This way, the renovation will literally pay for itself.

  • Should be able to separate fires and contain them within one unit,
  • Has sufficient street and driveway parking,
  • Does not overload existing water, electricity, and plumbing utilities,

  • modifies or installs new heating or plumbing systems,
  • excavates or constructs a new foundation,
  • includes any structural alterations, adds an entrance
  • includes any basement underpinning work.

Importantly, you will need planning permission as well as meet a special set of design requirements if the basement renovation will add a new suite for another household.
