Exhaust for chemicals, dental or spa use.

Before we design: what we check for your practice
Clinics and salons add water and air to a space. We check where drains can run under the floor, whether the slab needs cutting, and where exhaust can leave the building.
We also check the use. A salon or clinic moving into a former store or office may count as a change of use, which can bring upgrades to washrooms, accessibility and fire separations.
Then we plan the flow: how clients arrive, wait and move through the space, and how staff work without crossing paths. Good flow makes a small unit feel bigger.
Why these applications get sent back
These are comments plan examiners often raise. We address each one in the drawings before we submit.
From site visit to issued permit
"We had such a wonderful experience working with the team of KS Group, on our home interiors. They really took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life with so much creativity, care, and attention to detail."
