Home Design and Build Process

City Limits on Allowable New Build

There are specific rules and laws for building houses in Mississauga. ALBO Home builders would investigate your specific area to find what the restrictions for new construction are and what the maximum potential on your lot is. City bylaws are simply made to make sure there is order in custom home construction, and home owners do not build more than it is allowed. Before creating any drawings be sure to get professional advice.

How High to Build – The myth is you can build new home as tall as highest building on your street. That is not true, and city has specific requirements for maximum height of residential house with sloped and flat roofs.

Lot Coverage – Depending on size of your property lot in Peel region your house will be regulated to specific maximum square footage. Typically it is a percentage of your actual land size.

Proximity to Neighbour – Building home directly next to your neighbour or city property creates problems and safety issues. Therefore there is limit on how much distance you need to start with.

Interior and Exterior designs

Before any custom home is priced any build, our construction team would need to know what we are dealing with. Our clients would thoroughly explain size and design of the house they prefer. With this information and pictures of similar houses as references ALBO Builders would start putting your thoughts and ideas on paper with floor plans and full on designs that reflects entire theme of new place in Mississauga.

Sketch of The House – First drawing of the new house we do will be done without exact measurements to simply illustrate the basic ideas of proportions and design feel

Interior Drawings – With your necessary requirements of interior space we will create drawings for the interior and position bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen.

Rendering Front and Sides – ALBO Homes designers will prepare visual 3d rendering for you before any permits are submitted to see exactly how outside finishing will look after completion.

Necessary for Construction Approval

Preparation for construction is required by home owner by city officials. Prior to permits your custom home builders are required to prepare and submit necessary documents with details on your land property, construction of your future house and environment. Our team is experienced in reviewing and sending all these documents to city officials within few weeks. Specs will be used by workers to follow the footprint of new construction and protect trees around.

Construction Drawings – Our construction team with professional engineers will develop drawings for build process that will outline structural points and load bearing walls.

Heat Loss Calculations – Each house has doors and windows that create heat loss. We need to calculate the requirement of heat for your new house square footage, with deduction of heat loss.

New Build Survey – Even though you may have old survey from previous owner, the city of Mississauga requires new survey for custom home construction.

What are the Permits in New Construction

City of Mississauga will officially approve new modern and custom home construction by sending us permits with stamps of compliance. The package will consist of few different permits, depending on the size and amount of work that has to be performed. Specifications for workers are mentioned on permits for workers to follow the architect’s drawings and for city inspector to review completed work by ALBO Homes builders. The process of permits for new home should not take more than several weeks.

Building Permit – The one package of documents that everyone refers to most of the time is building permit. It consists of structural and architectural plans for new house.

Plumbing and Drain Permits – For installation of new drain and plumbing lines that would lead to bathrooms, kitchen faucets laundry boxes we would submit a plumbing permit.

HVAC Permit – There are many heating sources that can be installed in new modern home, but they all fall under HVAC permit in Mississauga.

New Home Construction Process

The day has come to finally start the physical work. ALBO Homes will break the ground as soon as all approvals from the city are received. If existing house needs to be demolished prior to construction, than you will need to request disconnects of gas lines, electricity and shut down of main water service. After that we are ready to demolish and start developing your new home as per submitted and approved drawings.

Excavation – With demolition of old house ALBO Homes would mark up the positions of new home and excavate to appropriate depth and width.

Concrete Work – First layer will be exterior protection from soil, which is done with concrete walls and footings. Slab is poured in gravel with protective and heat preserving material on top.

Home Building – The biggest and most time consuming stage is obviously constructing your new house. Walls, floors and roof will be formed with openings for windows, doors and skylights.

Finishing Details Inside and Outside

Main idea of design and build project is to have your new home exactly as you wish. Transition from first sketch with ideas to actual house with great timing and set budget is what ALBO Homes is known for. Our designer team will assist all clients in selecting materials for finishes and show you how to follow the project with adding images for products you like installed at your new home.

Interior Design Materials – Inspiration from images online and other new custom homes will get client’s idea of materials that will be selected for finishing. Designers will suggest combination of colors and types of materials.

Kitchens and Bathrooms – The star of the house is always a kitchen that has to be just perfect for our clients. We will design in 3d your kitchen look. Bathrooms require many designer’s selections as well with tiles, cabinets and plumbing fixtures.

Designer Detailing – Each custom house has custom touches that differentiate one modern house from another. Our team will suggest and build all finishing designs for the look you prefer.
