Custom home builder and renovation contractor in Markham
Markham has a heritage district in Unionville and another in Markham Village, 1970s and 1980s subdivisions in Thornhill and Milliken, and newer stock in Cornell and Berczy. The older subdivisions take second storeys and additions well. The heritage districts take careful additions and exterior work that goes through a design review before the permit.
Markham, on the ground.
Custom homes come up in Thornhill and on the larger lots east of Kennedy, where a 1970s house on a deep lot makes way for a new one. Whole-home renovations on 1980s plans, kitchen renovations and legal second units with underpinning round out the Markham list.
The City of Markham issues the building permit. Heritage designation adds a review to anything visible from the street, and lots along the Rouge and its branches fall under the conservation authority. [Kam confirms typical Markham permit timing.]

Yes, with a heritage review of anything visible from the street. Additions usually go to the rear and follow the character of the house. We bring that into the design before the permit application, not after.
The City of Markham. Additions, second storeys, new houses and second units all need a building permit with engineered drawings.
Most can. The engineer confirms the foundation from a test pit, and the lots in Thornhill and Milliken have the room for a crane.
