Questions about this service
What does a secondary suite include?
A secondary suite is a fully separate living space with its own entrance, code sized egress windows, a separate bathroom and kitchen, the required ceiling height, fire separation and smoke and CO detection. We build all of it to the Alberta Building Code.
Can a suite help me qualify for a bigger mortgage?
Potentially. Many lenders will consider suite rental income, but rules vary and may depend on an appraisal. Confirm with your lender; a well built, documented suite gives you the strongest position.
How much does a secondary suite cost?
It varies with size, layout and finish level. We give you an honest range up front and a fixed quote once the scope is set, with no hidden costs.
