ALAYANDesign-Build Inc.
We design small commercial buildings and interior fit-outs within Part 9 of the Ontario Building Code: offices, retail and personal-service spaces, from layout to permit.
Plans that fit how your team and customers move: reception, work areas, storage and washrooms.
Occupancy, exits, washroom counts and accessibility checked against Part 9 early, so the design holds up at permit.
Drawings your landlord can review and your municipality can permit.
Consultation and design brief, space planning and layouts, design development in 3D, Ontario Building Code (Part 9) analysis, sealed permit drawings, submission to your municipality and responses to its review comments.

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.
Small buildings and tenant spaces used as offices, shops, personal-service businesses or low-hazard workshops, within the Part 9 size limits. Assembly uses such as restaurants are outside Part 9 and outside our services.
Yes, when the building and your use fall within Part 9. We'll ask for any existing drawings of the unit at the consultation.
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.
