Richmond Hill mixes established neighbourhoods around Mill Pond with large newer homes in Jefferson, Oak Ridges and Bayview Hill. Ravine and moraine lots are common, and they change what is possible in the backyard — which is why we check conservation jurisdiction before we design a deck here.

Bayview Hill and Jefferson are large 1990s and 2000s detached homes with tall basements and generous lots. Mill Pond and the Yonge corridor hold older, smaller stock with more character and more surprises. Oak Ridges properties frequently sit on the moraine with associated development constraints.
Ravine-backing lots are common and beautiful, and they require conservation authority sign-off before a deck footing goes in. We start that conversation at the design stage.
Permits & approvals — City of Richmond Hill Building Services
Richmond Hill permits additional residential units with a building permit and registration. Significant portions of Oak Ridges and Jefferson fall within the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan and Lake Simcoe Region or TRCA jurisdiction, which affects grading, footings and any structure near a ravine.
