Building an ADU in Strathroy
Strathroy sits inside Strathroy-Caradoc, so the by-law you are governed by is the municipality's, not the town's. Lot sizes in and around Strathroy run larger than London's, which usually means fewer setback conflicts on a detached unit and more freedom in where it sits.
Who approves it
Municipality of Strathroy-Caradoc issues zoning approval and the building permit for Strathroy (Middlesex County).
Ontario permits up to three residential units on most serviced residential lots as of right, without a zoning amendment. The province sets that baseline; your municipality still sets setbacks, height, lot coverage, parking and servicing, and still issues the building permit.

Frequently asked questions
Does Kuzyn Builds build ADUs in Strathroy?
Yes. Strathroy is about 35 km west of our London office and is inside our regular service area, alongside London, St. Thomas, Strathroy, Sarnia and Grand Bend. The same pre-designed detached models and the same published starting prices apply, from $148,000.
How much does an ADU cost in Strathroy?
The pre-designed detached models start at $148,000 for The Paul (321 sq ft), with planning and building permits included. Interior and garage conversions start lower, from about $75,000. The variable between one lot and the next is site servicing — water, sanitary and hydro runs — which is why a property assessment comes before a firm number.
Who approves an ADU in Strathroy?
The Municipality of Strathroy-Caradoc issues the zoning approval and the building permit. Ontario permits up to three residential units on most serviced residential lots as of right, without a zoning amendment. The province sets that baseline; your municipality still sets setbacks, height, lot coverage, parking and servicing, and still issues the building permit.
How long does a Strathroy ADU take to build?
Between 2 and 8 months from permit approval to completion, depending on configuration. Interior and garage conversions run 2 to 4 months; a detached standalone unit runs 4 to 8 months. Permit approval sits ahead of that and depends on the municipality's queue.
