SERVICES
ENGINEERING AND PERMIT DESIGN SERVICES FOR PROJECTS ACROSS TORONTO AND THE GTA.
Elmid Design Inc. prepares engineering plans, reports, and permit drawings for building and land development projects. The required documents depend on the property, proposed work, and reviewing authority. Send your property address, project details, and available drawings so we can review the scope.
Which Engineering Service Does Your Project Need?
Building and Renovation Projects
Start with building permit drawings for a new building, addition, or renovation. Work that changes ground levels or drainage may also need a site grading plan.
Site and Land Development Projects
A site plan shows the proposed development layout. Your project may also need a site servicing plan, a Functional Servicing Report, a stormwater management report, or an erosion and sediment control plan. The required documents depend on the project and the reviewing authority.
Properties Without Municipal Sewer Connections
Review septic design services if your property uses an on-site wastewater system. The design depends on the proposed building use, sewage flow, soil, and other site conditions.

Engineering Services: Frequently Asked Questions
Which engineering service should I choose first?
Start with the proposed work. Building work may need permit drawings. Changes to the site may need grading or servicing documents. Send your project details so we can review the scope.
Can one project need more than one engineering document?
Yes. A project may need several plans and reports. The required documents depend on the proposed work and the reviewing authority.
Who decides which documents are required?
The reviewing authority sets the application requirements. Our team reviews the project information and available comments to help define the design scope.
What affects the design fee and schedule?
The project scope, site conditions, available information, and required documents affect the design fee and schedule. The authority’s review time is separate from the design time.
