Custom Gym Design Services in Canada & the USA
You don't have to buy equipment to get a professional gym design
Most companies that offer "free gym design" only do it to sell you equipment. If you already own your machines, want to shop around, or just need a plan before you spend a dollar, that leaves you stuck.
At Repetition Fitness, gym design is a standalone service. For a flat $500, we design your gym layout from the floor up, whether you buy equipment from us or not. A $250 deposit gets your project started, and we work with clients anywhere in Canada and the United States.
Whether you're opening a commercial gym, building a home gym in the basement, converting a garage, or upgrading a studio, a good design saves you money, space and headaches before the first rack goes in.

What's included in our gym design service
Your $500 gym design package covers the planning work that turns an empty room into a gym that works:
- Custom floor plan and layout drawn to your room's real measurements
- Training zones for strength, cardio, functional training, stretching and recovery
- Equipment placement with safe clearances and traffic flow, using equipment you already own, plan to buy, or want recommendations for
- Flooring recommendations for each zone, such as rubber tiles, turf or platforms
- Lighting, mirror and storage placement so the space looks good and stays organized
- Ceiling height and power checks for racks, overhead lifts and cardio machines
- Equipment suggestions by budget, brand-neutral, so you can buy wherever you want
- One round of revisions so the final plan fits exactly how you train
You keep the finished design and can take it to any contractor or equipment supplier.
Who our gym design service is for
- Home gym owners: basement gyms, garage gyms, spare-room gyms and backyard studios
- Commercial gym owners: new 24/7 gyms, franchise locations, expansions and renovations
- Personal trainers and boutique studios: CrossFit boxes, HIIT studios, yoga and Pilates spaces, private training studios
- Corporate wellness: office fitness rooms and employee gyms
- Condos, apartments and hotels: amenity gyms that residents and guests actually use
- Schools, clubs and sports teams: weight rooms and athletic training facilities
- Physiotherapy and rehab clinics: functional spaces for treatment and recovery
If you have a space and a goal, we can design it.
Why design your gym before buying equipment
The most expensive gym mistakes happen before anything is installed. A squat rack that doesn't clear the ceiling, a treadmill with no outlet nearby, or a floor that's too crowded to train safely can cost thousands to fix.
A professional gym layout helps you:
- Avoid buying the wrong equipment or more than your space can hold
- Use every square foot, especially in small home gyms and garages
- Keep members and clients safe with proper spacing and clear walkways
- Improve the experience, so members stay longer and renew
- Get accurate quotes from contractors and suppliers with a clear plan in hand
- Stay independent, with no pressure to buy from one supplier
For $500, a gym floor plan often pays for itself by preventing a single bad purchase.

Compare that with the cost of moving a rack, re-laying flooring or rewiring outlets after the fact, and professional gym planning is one of the smartest investments you can make in your space.
How our gym design process works
- Book your design. Pay the $250 deposit to reserve your spot.
- Share your space. Send measurements, photos or an existing floor plan, plus ceiling height, door and window locations, and outlet positions.
- Tell us your goals. Who will train there, what styles of training, your budget, and any equipment you already own.
- Get your custom layout. We design your floor plan with zones, equipment placement, flooring and lighting recommendations.
- Review and revise. We adjust the design based on your feedback.
- Receive your final plan. Pay the remaining $250 and take your design to any builder or supplier you choose.
Because the whole process is remote, it works just as well in Toronto or Vancouver as it does in Dallas or Miami.
