Second storeys. Rear extensions. Full additions. Bull Homes handles structural, design, permits, and full build — so you stay in your neighbourhood, your kids stay in their school, and your home grows with your family.
Land transfer tax, real estate commissions, moving costs, and the inflated 2026 GTA price-per-sqft for established neighbourhoods make additions the cheaper math on most family homes.
Realistic full-cycle: 6–10 weeks design + structural, 8–14 weeks permits, 4–8 months construction. We give you a written timeline before you sign anything.
Most second storeys add 800–1500 ft²; rear extensions typically add 250–600 ft². Combinations are common and often the best math per dollar.
Rough 2026 GTA ranges: rear extensions $250K–$500K, second storeys $400K–$750K, full combination projects $600K+. Final cost depends on existing foundation capacity, structural scope, finishes, and permits. The free feasibility report gives you a written range, not a guess.
Most rear extensions and partial-second-storey projects can be lived in throughout, with construction sequenced to minimize disruption. Full second-storey rebuilds usually require 2–4 months of alternative housing. We map this out in the feasibility report so there are no surprises.
We handle Committee of Adjustment applications regularly across the GTA. A typical variance process adds 3–5 months to the timeline; we're realistic about your odds during the assessment and won't take a project where the numbers can't work.
Sometimes yes, sometimes it needs reinforcement. Our structural engineer evaluates this during the assessment — and if reinforcement is needed, we cost it transparently, not as a surprise mid-build.
