Legal Requirements for a Basement Kitchen in Toronto
If your kitchen in the basement is part of a secondary suite, it must meet current Ontario Building Code and City of Toronto standards:
- Full stove/oven + refrigerator required (microwave-only kitchenettes do NOT qualify as a legal second dwelling)
- Minimum ceiling height of 1.95 m (1.85 m allowed under beams)
- Proper mechanical ventilation and fire-rated separation from the main house
- Egress windows in any sleeping areas
- Compliant entrance (shared or separate)
We handle every permit and inspection so your kitchen renovation is 100% legal, insurable, and mortgage-friendly. Official City of Toronto Secondary Suites Guidelines
