How It Works

From Lease to Launch

01
Site Evaluation

We walk your space — free across the GTA — review the lease, and send you a written scope and estimate within one business day.

02
Permits & Planning

Drawings coordinated with your architect, permits submitted, and long-lead equipment ordered early so nothing stalls later.

03
Construction

One contact runs demolition, trades, and inspections in sequence — with a schedule you can hold us to.

04
Inspection & Handover

Final inspections, deficiency walkthrough, occupancy — and a 1-year workmanship warranty after you open.

Pre-Construction & Permit Coordination

The permits start before the demo does. Site checks, code review, drawings coordinated, applications filed — and chased until they issue.

BuildUp handled the full build-out of our restaurant and I honestly couldn't have asked for a smoother process. Lev understood from day one how important it was to open on schedule, and he kept everything moving — permits, inspections, the kitchen, the dining area — without me having to chase anyone. Any time something came up, he had a solution ready before it became a problem. The crew was professional, the site stayed clean, and the final space looks exactly like what we wanted. If you're opening a restaurant and want a contractor who actually takes the stress off your plate, this is the team.
