Garden Suite Cost Guides for Toronto & the GTA
Planning a backyard home? Use our 2026 cost guides for realistic all-in pricing on custom garden suites, laneway suites, and prefab builds across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area — plus the rental income math that makes the investment case.
Choose Your Cost Guide
Each guide includes detailed all-in cost breakdowns by size and tier, the factors that move pricing, timelines, financing and incentives, and practical money-saving strategies from our design-build team.
Why Trust Our Cost Data
Our pricing is based on real garden suite projects across the Greater Toronto Area. As a design-build company quoting all-in, we know what design, permits, servicing, and construction actually cost in Ontario — because we carry all of it under one contract.
Real Project Data
Our pricing reflects actual garden and laneway suite projects across Toronto and the GTA — not construction-only teasers that grow on site.
Updated for 2026
We update our guides to reflect current material costs, labour rates, permit fees, and the financing programs available to Ontario homeowners.
All-In Numbers
Every range includes design, permits, servicing, construction, and finishes — the way we quote — so you can budget the whole project, not part of it.
15+ Years Experience
Our team brings 15+ years of construction experience to every estimate, so we know what backyard builds actually cost at each size and tier.
