Rental units and egress in Waterloo

With two universities in the city, a lot of Waterloo basements get finished as a separate suite. That changes the rules: legal ceiling heights, fire separation, a compliant egress window in every bedroom and a second means of exit. We build to those requirements from the start and cut and install egress windows ourselves, so you are not stitching together three different trades to get one permit closed.
