Landscaping, decks & fences in Ajax, Ontario

Ajax’s Building Services lists decks and porches, sheds, garages and carports, plumbing, renovations and additions among the work that needs a building permit, and publishes a separate guide for finishing a basement. Applications go through the Town’s online portal. Ajax’s Tree Protection By-law (137-2006) needs a permit to damage or remove trees in parks, Greenbelt land and Environmental Protection land. The Town removes only trees on Town property, and prunes the Town-owned boulevard trees on a six-to-eight-year cycle. Doyo books landscaping across Ajax: describe the job, see the full price before you book, and pay only when it is done.

Help centre

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.
