Detached Garage & Backyard Structure Construction in
Toronto
Built to Last
Backyard structures should feel like an extension of your home, not an afterthought.
In Toronto, that means building for real conditions: freeze-thaw cycles, moisture, shifting ground, and year-round use. At SZ Obsidian Builds, we approach every project from the ground up, with a focus on structure, durability, and long-term performance.
A detached garage is one of the most valuable additions you can make to your property. It adds storage, protects vehicles, and increases resale value when built correctly.
What Goes Into a Proper Garage Build
Foundation designed for Toronto soil and frost conditions
Framing built to handle load and seasonal movement
Roofing and exterior finishes that match your home
Proper ventilation and moisture control
We build garages that are square, level, and structurally sound from day one, not something that needs constant fixing.
Built for Function and Longevity
Whether you need:
Single or Double Car
Storage-Focused
Fully Finished
Workspace Solutions
Backyard Office Construction
More homeowners are turning their backyard into functional workspace. But a backyard office needs more than four walls and a door.
What Makes a Backyard Office Work
Proper insulation for year-round use
Electrical setup for real work demands
Sound control and privacy
Weatherproof construction
Turn unused yard space into a productive, private workspace
Storage Solutions
Garden Shed Construction
A shed should solve problems, not create them.
Too many sheds:
Shift over time
Take on moisture
Fall apart quickly
Our Approach to Shed Construction
Proper base and leveling
Framing that holds up structurally
Materials that handle Toronto weather
Clean, functional design
From simple storage sheds to fully customized builds, we match the structure to your needs.
Professional Spaces
Workshop Buildings
If you need a dedicated space to build, work, or store equipment, a workshop needs to be built differently than a basic structure.
What We Consider in Workshop Builds
Structural Strength
For equipment and heavy loads
Electrical Planning
Layout for your tools and workflow
Ventilation
Proper airflow for safety and comfort
Accessibility
Easy access and workflow design
“We build workshops that are practical, durable, and designed around how you actually use the space.”
