Serving Toronto & the GTA
Garden suites & tiny houses in Toronto.
Toronto allows garden suites on many residential lots — which means your backyard can become a rental suite, a home office, or independent space for family. Pisces designs, permits and builds the suite, then finishes the landscape around it, all with one team.
What we build in Toronto
Most Toronto clients come to us for the garden suite — then stay for everything around it. Here is the full menu:
Garden suites & tiny houses
Four models from about 480 to 800 sq ft with striking ACM facades — and we handle the building permit process from drawings to City approvals.
Landscaping & planting
Complete landscape design and installation: grading, sod, planting beds, garden walls and the finishing touches that make it look established.
Interlock driveways & walkways
Precision interlock with rich patterns and borders — including the checkered finishes we are known for — on a properly built base.
Heated snow-melting driveways
Radiant heating under your pavers melts snow on contact. No shoveling, no salt damage, a clear driveway all winter.
Pools & backyard design
From plunge pools to tropical lagoon concepts, designed as one complete backyard — pool, patio, deck and planting together.
Why Toronto backyards are perfect for garden suites
Toronto's garden suite permissions opened the door for thousands of homeowners — especially on the deep lots of North York, Scarborough and Etobicoke. A well-built suite can generate rental income, house aging parents with dignity, or give adult kids a real start without leaving the neighbourhood.
The part that stops most people is the permit process — drawings, zoning checks, City submissions. That is exactly what we take off your plate. Pisces handles the building permit process from drawings to City approvals, then builds the suite and the landscape around it as one coordinated project.

- Direct line to the owner. You deal with Simon at 647-860-0400 — no layers, no call centres, no disappearing contractors.
- Itemized quotes, photo updates. Clear pricing before we start and progress photos while we build.
- Based in Thornhill, across the GTA. Our home base is 45 Woodward Ave, Thornhill — and we serve Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area.
Toronto questions, answered
Do I need a permit for a garden suite in Toronto?
Yes — Toronto requires a building permit for garden suites. That is exactly what we handle: drawings, submissions and City approvals, so you never have to navigate the process alone.
How large can my garden suite be?
Our four models run from about 480 to 800 sq ft, each designed to meet Toronto's garden suite rules and the Ontario Building Code. We confirm what your lot allows at the first visit.
Can I rent out a garden suite?
Garden suites can generally be rented as long-term housing. Rules can evolve, so we always confirm the current City requirements for your property before design begins.
Will you landscape around the suite too?
Yes — one team builds the suite, the servicing and the landscape around it, so the finished backyard looks intentional instead of patched together.
