How long does it take to build a custom home in Toronto?
A custom home build typically takes 12–18 months from design through completion. This includes 3–5 months for architectural design, engineering, and permits (longer if Committee of Adjustment variances or heritage approvals are needed), followed by 9–13 months of construction. Projects that are fully zoning-compliant can use FASTRACK permitting for portions under 100 m². Complex projects or homes in heritage areas may require additional time. We provide a detailed construction schedule that separates these phases before ground is broken.
