OUR EXPERT CIVIL ENGINEERS PREPARE SITE GRADING PLANS AND EROSION/SEDIMENT CONTROL PLANS

We prepare stamped engineering Site Grading Plans for land developments and redevelopments, and Lot Grading Plans to obtain building permits.

OUR PROFESSIONAL CIVIL ENGINEERS PREPARE SITE GRADING AND DRAINAGE PLANS FOR BUILDING PERMITS

Site Grading (Lot Grading) Plans and Drainage Plans are essential components of most Municipal Planning Applications. These include Site Plan Approval, Rezoning, Subdivisions, and Building Permit Applications for new constructions and additions. Proper grading and drainage are critical to ensure stormwater flows safely away from foundations, preventing ponding, flooding of neighboring properties, or overwhelming storm sewers.


Our Grading Plans, stamped by our Licensed Professional Civil Engineers (P.Eng.), encompass: 


- Detailed existing and proposed elevations, grading, and drainage patterns. 

- Site features, including existing structures, proposed building footprints, driveways, retaining walls, and property lines. 

- Guidelines for silt fencing to prevent erosion and sediment runoff during construction.


Our Licensed Professional Engineers specialize in creating Engineered Site Grading Plans (Lot Grading Plans), Drainage Plans, and Erosion Control Plans. These plans are based on comprehensive topographical surveys to ensure compliance and streamline the site plan approval and building permit processes across Ontario, including major areas like Toronto, Hamilton, and Mississauga.


With extensive experience in municipal engineering design, we offer innovative, effective, and cost-efficient Engineered Site Grading Plans, Drainage Plans, and Erosion Control Plans tailored to our clients' needs. Our team's expertise in Lot Grading and Drainage ensures that all designs meet municipal and conservation authority requirements. Our licensed engineers produce thorough and clear plans, ensuring smooth submissions for site plan approvals and building permits.


By leveraging our knowledge in Municipal Engineering and a wealth of experience with Lot Grading Plans and Drainage Plans, our engineers provide exemplary solutions. Our licensed Professional Engineers certify that all grading, drainage, and erosion control plans align with Ontario's Building Code and municipal by-laws, expediting the municipal review process for Site Plan Approval and Building Permits.


We prepare site grading plans based on detailed topographical surveys to guarantee that positive storm drainage meets municipal standards. Ensuring that proposed grading does not adversely impact adjoining lots is a high priority, alongside maintaining tree preservation where required.


The grading design for residential lots adheres to specific standards, which include a complete top-soiling and sodding process, specified yard slopes, and driveway grades—all crucial for optimal site drainage.


Swales in Lot Grading Plans are designed with minimum longitudinal slopes meeting municipal standards, ensuring proper stormwater management and drainage. Critical emphasis is placed on existing and proposed elevations for comprehensive clarity.


Each Site Grading Plan (Lot Grading Plan) elucidates how the lot will be graded to effectively manage erosion and sediment (siltation) during construction while ensuring positive drainage away from buildings. Given that improper site grading can lead to severe drainage issues and structural damage, our engineers are committed to creating robust drainage solutions that align with the latest regulations.


The fees for a typical Site Grading (Lot Grading) Plan and Drainage Plan for single dwelling properties in regions including Toronto and Hamilton start at $1,295, with options for stamped engineering plans available for $1,990. Our skilled licensed professional engineers, experienced in site servicing and stormwater management, are prepared to assist your project, ensuring prompt responses to meet municipal requirements.

OUR CIVIL ENGINEERS DESIGN SEPTIC SYSTEM & PREPARE SEPTIC PERMIT DRAWINGS

We also design septic systems to obtain septic permits, which include comprehensive drainage plans. Our typical stamped engineering for a residential class 4 sewage system design complies with the provisions of Division 8 Part 8 of O.B.C. If required, we can provide a design for a tertiary treatment unit, pump chamber, and a shallow buried trench, all for $1,695⁺ʰˢᵗ. Upon receipt of all the necessary information, we can complete the design in 3 to 5 business days.
