Where should we send your planning range?

Your Planning Range

This is a planning range, not a quote. Final pricing requires a site review, drawings, permit assessment, and trade scope confirmation. A copy has also been emailed to you.

Prepared using the same GTA buildout benchmarks Team 34 uses on every project — a licensed, insured contractor with one accountable project lead on every build, from first-time openings to multi-location rollouts.

Cost Breakdown

Where the money goes

This is the exact trade-by-trade breakdown we scope every project against — not a lump-sum guess. It's confirmed on-site before your price is locked.

Included in this range

    Not included

    • Interior and exterior signage
    • Landlord base-building work unless clearly in tenant scope
    • Contingency. Add 10-15% for planning.

    Before you sign, ask your landlord

    • What base-building work is included: HVAC, panel, plumbing rough-in, washroom, sprinklers, storefront, slab, demising walls?
    • Is there a tenant improvement allowance, and what conditions apply?
    • Are there restrictions on trades, work hours, hoarding, deliveries, or materials?
    • Which permits and approvals are tenant responsibility versus landlord responsibility?
