FAQ
Change of Use Construction FAQ
What is a change of use?
It is an Ontario Building Code approval issue arising when a building or part changes to a different occupancy classification or hazard.
Can a permit be needed without renovations?
Yes. Ontario guidance says a change-of-use permit may be required even without construction.
How does it differ from adaptive reuse?
Adaptive reuse is the design and construction transformation; change of use is the OBC approval mechanism.
Who determines required upgrades?
Qualified professionals and the municipal building department.
Does Ardenvale approve occupancy?
No. Ardenvale builds the approved work; authorities and the owner complete occupancy authorization.
