The Path to Approval

Four clear steps from conversation to permit in hand. We do the heavy lifting — you focus on your vision.

1

Free Feasibility Check

Share your address and scope. We review zoning, setbacks, DPA triggers, and site constraints — so you know what's possible before you spend a dollar.

2

On-Site As-Built Measuring

We capture your existing space with 360° Lidar scanning. Precise measurements, no guesswork, no costly re-dos down the line.

3

Code-Compliant Design

We draft your plans in Revit, coordinate with structural engineers, and ensure every detail meets BC Building Code and your municipality's requirements.

4

Permit Submission & Tracking

We compile the full package, submit to your city, and track it through review. You get the permit stamp — we handle the rest.

Who We Are

"Burnaby is where it all started for me; from attending elementary school to completing my technical training at BCIT, watching my hometown develop over the decades is what inspired me to enter the design field."

We help homeowners and business owners in Burnaby and across BC get their projects approved with clear, accurate, and affordable drawings. Since our start in 2015, we've leveraged advanced tools like Revit for 3D Architecture and 360° Lidar scanning for precise measurements — reducing delays and preventing costly errors.

With Canadian Blueprint, you're not just getting drawings. You're getting a reliable partner dedicated to your project's success and your peace of mind.

Permit & Zoning Landscape in Burnaby

Navigating municipal zoning in Burnaby requires attention to key local guidelines:

  • Regulated under the Burnaby Zoning Bylaw and standard BC Building Code.
  • Requires specific erosion and sediment control (ESC) plans for all soil-disturbing construction.
  • Allows lane homes and secondary suites in eligible single-family residential districts.

Our team works closely with municipal bylaws to ensure drawings are approved quickly and with minimal revisions.
