City of Toronto

Custom closets & built-ins in Toronto, Ontario

Toronto is two cities in one: almost half its homes are apartments in buildings of five or more storeys, and 29% of all homes were built in 1960 or earlier — the houses where lead pipes, old wiring and basement flooding are. Custom storage is measured and quoted after a visit, and rarely needs a permit unless walls move. Doyo books custom storage across Toronto: describe the job, see the full price before you book, and pay only when it is done.

Heritage districts

Toronto has heritage conservation districts across the city. Inside one, new construction, alterations and additions need a heritage permit, which is separate from — and does not replace — a building permit.

By written quote. A pro visits, looks at the space and sends a line-by-line quote in the app. You pay a deposit when you accept it, and Doyo holds that deposit until you confirm the work is done. Part of the pro’s payment is held back for a warranty period after completion, so there is still money on the table if something needs putting right.
