Type your Toronto address. We pull your real lot from the City’s GIS, apply every rule in Bylaw 89-2022, and tell you in 30 seconds — with a feasibility PDF you can hand to a builder.
No drawings. No consultations. No fees.
We pull your actual parcel from the City of Toronto’s cadastral GIS and your house outline from the official 3D massing dataset. Real measurements, not estimates.
Our engine applies every Bylaw 89-2022 rule — rear/side setbacks, 5 m dwelling separation, height ramp, soft-landscape minimum — and draws the exact buildable shape.
A 7-section report you can email to your builder, bank, or spouse. Cost band, permit timeline, compliance check, and a directory of Toronto contractors.
Pro and Studio plans unlock branded white-label PDF reports, the Permit Prep Package (site plan, statistics, fee estimate, submission checklist), and unlimited reports per month. Land more design fees by walking clients through a polished feasibility study in the first meeting.
Yes. The feasibility check is free. The PDF report is free. We don’t collect your data to resell it.
Optional paid services (architect/builder matching, premium reports) exist on top, but the feasibility tool itself stays free.
We use the actual cadastral lot polygon from the City of Toronto’s open GIS service, plus your house footprint from Toronto’s 3D massing dataset. We then apply every dimensional rule in Bylaw 89-2022.
The envelope is correct to ±30 cm. That’s good enough to know whether your lot qualifies, but a licensed Ontario Land Surveyor is still needed for permit-stage drawings.
About 15% of Toronto garden suite applications are refused, mostly due to lots that fail the 5 m dwelling-separation rule or the soft-landscape requirement. Our tool flags those up front, so you don’t pay $25K for a feasibility study just to learn your lot won’t work.
Both are accessory dwelling units (ADUs). A laneway suite faces a public laneway (governed by separate Toronto Bylaw 89-2018). A garden suite sits in a rear yard without laneway access (governed by Bylaw 89-2022). This tool focuses on garden suites; laneway support is on our roadmap.
Toronto end-to-end: 14–22 months from first call to occupancy. Roughly 4–6 months of design + permit, then 8–14 months of construction. The PDF report breaks this into 8 named phases.
No sign-up. No sales call. Real cadastral data + every rule in Bylaw 89-2022.
