Secondary Suites & ADUs in Cochrane.
Basement, garden and laneway suites are the fastest way to turn a Cochrane property into an income property — designed, permitted and built by one accountable team.
Cochrane is built for this move.
Cochrane’s fast growth and big Rocky View lots make it one of the Calgary region’s more suite-friendly satellite towns.
For suites, that means one thing: the permission question is mostly settled. What decides your project is design, servicing and execution — and that’s exactly what we own.

Asked in Cochrane.
As honest ballparks: a basement conversion typically runs $90k–$145k all-in at standard size and finish, and a new garden suite roughly $215k–$280k. Your free report prices your actual project for your Cochrane lot.
Cochrane permits interior secondary suites and detached backyard (garden) suites on lots with a single-detached home, each requiring a development and building permit. Rowhouses and multiplexes follow the town’s district zoning. Individual designs still need permits and can be shaped by lot specifics — which is what the free report checks.
Typically 2–4 months for design and permits, then 4–8 months of construction depending on the suite type. We set a realistic timeline for your project up front — and one team carries it to keys.
