Making changes to your cottage property can have you dreaming about the new memories you’ll create in your beautiful new space. However, the reality of getting from the initial planning stages to final permits can be filled with complex logistical hurdles, tight site constraints, and Muskoka’s uniquely beautiful yet challenging topography.
The decision to choose a designer to guide you is a great starting place.
At Design by Bobbi, we take the stress out of the process by offering a comprehensive, start-to-finish service through dedicated consulting and expert design.
Here is how we deliver true value to your project:
Operational Harmony: From Site Development to Permits
We bring a streamlined, in-house approach to your project, together with a trusted network of professional colleagues. Whether your project requires collaboration with engineers, planners, biologists, or HVAC design specialists, we handle all the coordination. This ensures your application moves forward seamlessly through regulatory channels without unnecessary delays.
Efficiency & Speed: Driven by our Experienced Team
Our team members are experts in their roles. From site plan design, project conceptual design and construction plan layouts; to navigating local planning policies, we prioritize efficiency and open communication.
Using an intuitive and interactive process, we bring your vision to reality in design. We know that timelines matter. From the official start date right through to the final permit submission, our team provides quick, responsive services to efficiently navigate the regulatory steps required to get construction started.
Empowered Oversight: The Design by Bobbi Difference
As the Creative Director and Chief Operating Officer, my main role is to champion your project through consistent communication. I am the liaison and communicator with municipal officials, contractors, and consultants to ensure timeline expectations are clearly set and met.
Even after the permit is approved, we stay by your side. Throughout the construction process, we offer rapid callbacks, handle plan amendments, and provide necessary updates to keep your build moving forward without a hitch.
Every single step of our process is handled professionally and tailored specifically to your project. We bring years of hands-on experience working directly with Muskoka’s unique topography, local bylaws, and building codes.
