Mississauga Permit & Process Reality
Lakeside neighbourhoods (Port Credit, Lorne Park, Mineola) command premium budgets. Mississauga is the only GTA municipality with a recurring annual Second Unit Licence (~$350/year).
Flooring installation in Mississauga typically does not require a permit (it’s a finish trade). Permits may apply if subfloor structure or floor framing is altered.
For second-suite specifics: second suites are permitted as-of-right with an annual Second Unit Licence (~$350/year). Country Renovations pulls all permits on your behalf — including stamped drawings, structural engineering letters where required, and the AST or municipal portal submission.
