From Muskoka lakefront properties to rural Ottawa Valley lots, tiny homes offer Ontarians an affordable path to homeownership. KYRAX designs every Ontario-bound build with the province's four-season climate, building code requirements, and common lot configurations in mind.

Ontario tiny home regulations

How tiny homes are classified

Secondary suite or ARU on foundation; trailer models subject to municipal review

Province-specific note

Ontario's Bill 23 (2022) requires most municipalities to permit up to 3 residential units per lot, streamlining ARU approvals.

Ontario permits additional residential units (ARUs) on most residential properties under provincial legislation passed in 2022. Many municipalities including Toronto, Ottawa, and Hamilton have updated zoning to allow tiny homes as secondary dwellings. The Ontario Building Code applies to tiny homes on permanent foundations; trailer-based models may fall under different regulations depending on your municipality. Contact your local building department for specific requirements.

Before you order: these are general frameworks — your specific lot, local amendments, and utility situation determine the actual permits you'll need. We'll help you confirm the details for your exact address during quoting.
