Patio drawings and approvals for restaurants and cafés — public right-of-way programs, private patios, and AGCO licensing support drawings. Serving Toronto and the entire GTA.
A patio can add thirty percent to a restaurant's seasonal revenue, but the approval path is a maze: municipal patio programs for public right-of-way space, building permits for structures and platforms, zoning review for private property patios, and AGCO requirements if you serve alcohol.
We prepare the complete drawing sets these approvals need: dimensioned site plans showing clearances and pedestrian paths, platform and guard structural details where required, occupant load calculations for licensing, and accessibility compliance throughout.
Toronto's café and patio programs, and their equivalents across the GTA, each have their own submission standards — we keep current on them so your application doesn't bounce for a formatting technicality.
Every drawing we produce is backed by 20+ years of hands-on commercial construction across the GTA. We know what plan examiners look for because we've stood on both sides of the process — and we know what contractors need because we've been the contractor. That combination is why our clients' applications move.

It depends on structures: platforms above grade, guards, canopies, and tents beyond certain sizes typically trigger permits. Furniture on existing hard surface often doesn't. We'll assess your specific setup.
We prepare the dimensioned drawings and capacity calculations the AGCO process requires; your licensing consultant or lawyer files the application itself. We work hand-in-hand with them.
