Every project starts with a consultation. Cancel at least 48 hours before a paid consultation and within 15 days of payment for a 75% refund, or move it to a new time free of charge. Your fee for the design is set out in a written proposal before any work starts, and you accept it online only when you're ready. Unless your proposal says otherwise, a cancellation requested within 15 days of payment receives a 75% refund of the amount paid for work not yet started.
Often it depends on how high the deck is above the ground, its size and whether it's attached to the house. Each municipality has its own rules; we confirm yours at the consultation.
Yes. A roof over a deck changes the structure and sometimes zoning; we design and draw it as part of the same package.
No. Alayan Design-Build Inc. provides BCIN small building design and permit services only. Construction, contracting and site supervision are not included, so you're free to choose your own builder.
Part 9 of the Ontario Building Code covers houses and small buildings: up to 3 storeys and up to 600 m² of building area, for uses such as homes, offices, shops and low-hazard workshops. That's the work we design and prepare permits for.
No. Building permit fees, development charges and fees from other agencies are paid to them directly. Packages with permit drawings include a permit administration fee of 5% of the municipal permit fees, invoiced once those fees are known.
Our work stays within the scope of a BCIN-qualified designer for small buildings under the Ontario Building Code (Part 9): design, code analysis and permit drawings. If your project also needs another professional, such as a structural engineer or a surveyor, you retain them directly; coordinating other professionals isn't part of our services.
