EXCELLENT Based on 153 reviews Posted on Google MariaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an excellent end-to-end experience with my combined basement and elevator permit with Permitman. They were very professional, courteous, personal and their fees were reasonable. They always answered my emails in a prompt and friendly manner and gave me regular updates. When my permit was finally issued, they sent me an email notifying and congratulating me, which I thought was very nice! I highly recommend their services.Posted on Google Artin D.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent experience working with Permitman for our brand, Grandma Loves You. They successfully handled the change-of-use permits for two of our locations, and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. Their team was fast, professional, and very knowledgeable. On top of that, their pricing was very fair. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both speed and quality at this level. Highly recommended.Posted on Google abdullah naumanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Permitman as the design engineer for a change room and washroom build, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Their team demonstrated strong technical knowledge, clear communication, and a solid understanding of both practical construction constraints and code requirements. They delivered well-coordinated, permit-ready drawings, responded promptly to questions and revisions, and were proactive in addressing design considerations to support a smooth construction process. Their familiarity with permitting workflows helped avoid delays and ensured alignment with municipal and building code requirements. Overall, Permitman was reliable, professional, and detail-oriented. We would confidently recommend them as a design engineering partner for washroom, change room, and similar commercial or industrial renovation projects.Posted on Google Andrew WhiteTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a building permit for a commercial renovation?
In many cases, yes. Commercial renovations involving interior alterations, occupancy changes, accessibility upgrades, plumbing, HVAC modifications, structural work, or life-safety systems typically require a building permit. Our team can review your project and determine the specific permit requirements before work begins.
What is a Change of Use Permit?
A Change of Use Permit may be required when a commercial space is converted from one occupancy type to another, such as converting a retail store into a restaurant or an office into a medical clinic. Municipalities often require permit drawings and building code reviews to ensure the space complies with current regulations.
How long does it take to obtain a commercial building permit?
Permit approval timelines vary depending on the municipality, project scope, and required reviews. Simple interior renovations may be approved within a few weeks, while more complex projects can take longer. Permit Man helps streamline the process by preparing complete applications and responding to municipal comments promptly.
Can you help with restaurant, retail, office, and medical clinic permits?
Yes. We provide permit and design services for a wide range of commercial occupancies, including restaurants, cafés, retail stores, offices, medical and dental clinics, daycares, automotive facilities, warehouses, and other commercial spaces throughout Toronto and the GTA.
What services are included with your commercial permit applications?
