Key considerations for Toronto
Any wall removal requires confirmation of load-bearing status before design or work begins.
Load-bearing wall removal requires a structural engineer's drawings with beam sizing and post details.
A temporary shoring plan is often required by the municipality before work can proceed.
Opening in walls for larger windows or doors may trigger the same engineering and permit requirements.
Toronto's Express review stream is available for eligible small residential projects.
